Jane Maree replied to the topic PROMPT GUILD WAR – Happy Endings but NO CLICHE in the forum Announcements 7 years, 9 months ago
The deadline is a week away!! We need to make a decision, but it’s so hard to pick! Maybe we can go with whatever someone is willing to volunteer to write.
If you like one of the main ideas and want to write it, go ahead and raise your hand. We don’t want to pick a story then have no one to write a first draft.
Ideally, we’ll have a completed…[Read more]

E.B. Raulands replied to the topic Inside Out in the forum Story Analysis 7 years, 9 months ago
*cough* It seems I may have made a small mistake when I thought this would be a popular choice for analysis. XD
However, I’d still like to try going through an analysis using our story theory lessons, so I was wondering if there is a film/book/story you’d all like to try to analyze this way?
If you would, maybe list 3-5 options you’d like to…[Read more] -
Jane Maree started the topic {Story Theory – Week 15} How a Synopsis can Help You Write and Edit Your Book in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 7 years, 9 months ago
Alright, guys. Ignoring the fact that I forgot to write this yesterday….IT’S SYNOPSIS TIME!
Before I begin, I want to clear up one little thing.
A book synopsis is a three- to four-page summary of your book, that tells your story from beginning to end, outlining the important plot scenes and character development moments and twists. These…[Read more]

It’s been a literal AGE since we last did a guild war, but we guild masters are finally kicking ourselves into gear and we’ve got another show on the road! WHO’S EXCITED???
Okay, let’s get to the actual plan.
The prompt: write a story with a non-cliché happy ending.
The dates: Monday 4th – Monday 18th
Same drill as always.

Evelyn started the topic Poetry Critque, pretty please? (: in the forum Poetry Discussions 7 years, 9 months ago
So, lately I have been leafing through old poetry for the purposes of editing, and I stumbled over one in particular… I was wondering if the ending is clear enough. And in general if the poem is too confusing. And plus whatever critique. (:
Phantoms
They know not where they came from,
They know not where to go,
Forever trapped in…

@kari-karast @dakota (LOL, yeah, Anna kinda died off for a second there!)
Anna finally switched off her invisibility and ran over to where Kieron and the other girl were. She had the rolled-up map in her hand, figuring that Kieron forgot all about it. “Hey, Kieron, here’s the-” She let out a cry of surprise at seeing the wounded boy. She ru…[Read more]

Andrew Schmidt started the topic Chloe and Zoe in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 9 months ago
So, I’m going to do a little story thingy.
Chloe and Zoe is a story which I am writing, though not really an action adventure story or anything (its more of one those peaceful stories, except a little less peaceful. I hope that made sense.) But anyway, first I’m going to give you the prologue to read, and then, as I write on, I’ll give you part…[Read more]

E.B. Raulands started the topic Inside Out in the forum Story Analysis 7 years, 9 months ago
As you could probably tell by the title, this topic will be dealing with Inside Out, which unlike the other three analysis topics is a cartoon. But, if you’ve seen the movie, I think you’ll agree that is a very well-done and surprisingly powerful film. The question is, why is it so good? How were the writers able to take a film medium designated…[Read more]

@dakota (Like I said. It’s not a bad thing. It’s just… nevermind. It’s kinda hard to explain.)
Kieron smiled again. “You welcome Megyn. I know how you feel. Anna and I have the same goal. We’re trying to find these magical rubies that will hopefully help us defeat Deathrock and free all the slaves. Would you like to join us?”
(I have to go!…[Read more]

(Megyn… Megyn called Kieron a Mr.!! XDXDXDXD I think I’m going to go die now…[It’s not a bad thing. Just funny to me.]) @dakota
Kieron smiled gently at the girl. “I’m glad you’re okay. Just Kieron is fine. And I’ll live.” He sheathed his sword. It needed to be cleaned but he’d worry about that later. Then he took a bandage out of a pouch on…[Read more]

Kieron reached the stairs and began retreating up them. They weren’t very wide. Which meant the soldiers could only engage him two at a time. Unless they managed to get behind him. Which would be bad. Very bad. But he wasn’t going to let that happen. He stopped about three quarters of the way up the stairs and began fighting in earnest again.
He…[Read more]

@introverted-elf(I did!!) (Oh and @dakota help has arrived.)
“Probably. Or here maybe. A treasure room would probably be big…” Kieron pointed to a square area on the map. He didn’t mention how he knew treasure rooms were big though. “It’s on the way to the stairs so let’s check both.”
Anna nodded. “Okay.”
Kieron set off again with Anna…[Read more]

Good job, Dakota’s mom. xDDD
