Okay, all of this sounds absolutely stellar. Like, really guys. Good job. I’m impressed.
NOTE: @steward-of-the-pen is close, there is a 2500 word limit. Jane only has so much time to go through all of them.
*sits back to think*
- Plotline sounds brilliant, unique, and generally awesome.
- The character sounds stellar.

“Write any story you choose with the most original and creative prose that you can.”
THE TIME HAS COME PARIMIS.
War has been declared among the guild’s of Story Embers, and Parimi Alca is in terrible danger.
The competition will be tough. Avensbeck has won all of the prompt wars so far, and if we aren’t careful, they will dominate again. Also, t…[Read more]

@e-jo3 Right. I didn’t include that one because I think we’re leaning away from the magical side of things.
@j-a-penrose Thanks for the summary! I’m a bit behind on this thread, having joined recently.
@rebecca-w Welcome!

I’ll respond with my thoughts and further discussion after I let you guys talk for a bit.
So. Fan art. Discuss.…[Read more]

J.A.Penrose started the topic Lesson 14 : Character Descriptions that Don't Slow Down the Scene in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 8 years, 2 months ago
This question was raised as an aside by @consciousdreamer a few days back, and I figured it could be good to spend one of our Monday lessons on it.
All too often, you can be reading a book and then have to put it down and rub your eyes because the writer just had their entire cast described down to every freckle in one chapter. You have all of…[Read more]

J.A.Penrose replied to the topic Goal of the Guild | Important in the forum Announcements 8 years, 2 months ago
@e-jo3 I totally get that. *nodnod* I have to have something in my inbox to actually deal with it, so I tend to have days when I have 30+ notifs from SE and then sit down and do a lot of replying.
Main things that have been regular are the Annual Theme Discussions and the Critiques.

J.A.Penrose replied to the topic Out of the Darkness, a World Rises in the forum Announcements 8 years, 2 months ago
@e-jo3 Haha, yes, eastern dragons were known for flying, but it was more of a magically done feat. These are also similar to the British and Norse Wyrms.
Well, as I said that I would do this, here is a summary that’s in our shared…[Read more]

Sarah Inkdragon replied to the topic Calling All Artists! in the forum Art Discussions 8 years, 2 months ago
Hello! Sure, you can take your pick. I’ve got a couple male characters that you could do some action poses of or whatever you like, some mythical creatures that desperately need new sketches, a few city plans and castles to draw… basically, anything. So whatever you’re good at or want to try your hand at, let me know and I’ll send you…[Read more]

@steward-of-the-pen Yay! I’m not the only one on the edge of a 9th grade abyss of papers and lab reports. xD
Anyways I will still be around! Though I have a move coming up and a forensics competition so there might be two weeks where I’m absent. Hope that’s okay @j-a-penrose … if you want I can let you know which weeks those are.

I think I may spend all of tomorrow afternoon just going through these and collaborating some more things together and then responding to this stellar thread.
Also, I’m thinking that we may end up using some of our world building to have our own mini Parimi Alca tournaments? As in,…[Read more]

Well Parimis, it is time to say goodbye to a few of our members.
Some of our noble friends have decided that they would like to step out, at least temporarily, and I figured I’d let you guys know. Whenever someone is removed, I will put a farewell comment here for them, and so you all know.
At the end of the week, more will probably be…[Read more]

Who has sat down to plot and then ended up with all of their ideas going splat onto the page and not making any sense to how a book needs to be structured? Me too. A few years ago, (yikes, crazy to think that it was only just over three years) I would just come up with the intro, the complication, the plot twist, the climax, and the conclusion.…[Read more]

It’s very amusing though.
