*pops in* Just as a quick reminder, I think it would be best to finish all the larger edits by Thursday or Friday so we can do some final polishing over the weekend. @devastate-lasting will need time to make edits, so if you all could try to give some feedback soon, she’ll have more time to implement it. π
I’m very excited about this piece and I…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting that’s really good π I always have to keep that in mind while I write because I have a tendency to make everything easy for my characters. Then I overcorrect and make it so there is literally no way for my characters to accomplish any of their goals, and that’s a problem XD
@bekks2017 nice! If there is a 1k page book that’s so…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting I just looked over what you wrote and left some comments. I really like the piece! My main confusion was about what he did with his last “one” and why he regretted it. I think emphasizing why his friends were so important to him (what was his past like?) and providing some very exact details on that would strengthen the piece as…[Read more]

Alright @sageinthemeadow @devastate-lasting @morreafirebird @sarah-narnathron
Here’s the next part. This isn’t really even a whole chapter, but the rest of Chapter Two that I have finished writing and getting out of the rough form. Tell me what you think! And tag anyone else who might be interested in reading. π
I’m not entirely happy with this…[Read more]

@sarah-inkdragon your poor character π His central conflict must be rather fun to write, especially when people start approaching him but he backs away while he still doesn’t want to but knows he should…. *heart breaks* XD
Anyway, seems like Kija has some great conflict there! And perhaps there will be another assignment like this soon…[Read more]

Just a heads up for everyone: we should try to have our submission written by Saturday so we can spend the next week editing it. We’ve got some great ideas going in the document already (here’s the link again), and I think we’re getting close to deciding on an idea. Once we do that, we have two options.
1) pick someone to write the idea, then…[Read more]

Here’s a new accountability thread for a new month (one that came up way too fast, I might add).
I only completed two of my goals for last week. That pesky article still isn’t written π This week my goals are:
– Finish editing my short story
– Finish the read-through of my novel
– Begin planning edits for said-novel

Sarah Inkdragon replied to the topic Need Alpha Readers! in the forum Critiques 8 years, 5 months ago
I’ll see if I can. But I think the Erekdale forum is specific to Ereki only, and it won’t show up on their “recent activity” or anything. Because I’m not getting and recent activity from any of the other guilds…. π
Even if you don’t critique, feel free to read it just for fun. I don’t mind. XD

@morreafirebird I don’t mind trading action for epic-ness.Β In fact, I might prefer it! ;P
The whole series is really good, but individually, Inheritance,Β (the last one)Β is my favorite of the four. You should give it a try!
@devastate-lasting It’s funny how we all read such different books! (Oliver Twist has been on my list for forever, btw!)

Audrey Caylin replied to the topic The Bookdragon Lair in the forum Erekdale Writing Discussions 8 years, 5 months ago
@devastate-lasting I’ve only heard of two of those, but I’ll have to look up the rest π I’ve yet to read Harry Potter because I’m daunted by the number of books there are XD
@sageinthemeadow Worlds Beneath is pretty amazing…it’s definitely worth the wait π Though the Blood Race has more action, Worlds Beneath is way more epic in my…[Read more]
