J.A.Penrose started the topic Lesson 2 : Choice of Information in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 8 years, 5 months ago
Time for our second lesson in Pacing and Suspense, and hopefully it will be a major help. Until the end of June, we’ll be working through choice of information.

OKAY GUYS I LIVE.
*frantically catches up*
Okay. So, I LOVE ALL OF THESE IDEAS, but, we need to write something. Like, really soon. And @e-jo3 I think it would be best if we just get one draft written, then we can all edit and expend in it. Even if someone just writes a paragraph and then everyone else develops on it.
Steps:
1. Pick an…[Read more]

Jane Maree started the topic Prayers for your Guildmaster in the forum Prayer Requests 8 years, 5 months ago
As you might have seen, your guildmaster is currently MIA. As her irl cousin, I’m here as acting guildmaster for you folks in her place, and I’ll also keep you updated so you can be praying.
Basically: she has appendicitis (probably) and has spent the night in hospital. Last I heard, she had surgery scheduled for today in which she may or may not…[Read more]

Yaaay! So glad to see these ideas!
NAME: @evelyn @julia suggests ‘Parimis.’ So, so far that looks like what we are! Unless anyone has other suggestions? We could also give ourselves a separate name in Quenya to fit the whole, ‘Elven’ thing.
@e-jo3 Hunh, that’s a cool idea! I mean, there’d have to be a backstory as to why the world functioned w…[Read more]

@j-a-penrose Kaladin Soundtrack?? Hmm. Never heard of that. “Original Book Soundtrack.” Does Kaladin have to do with a book you’ve written? 🙂

Hello all of you people of Parimi Alca!
Have you noticed that we don’t have a title for ourselves? I mean, are we Parimi Alcaran? *squints* And we don’t even know what this random world around us is? We have no culture, no history, no sayings or pets.
Maybe it is time to change that.
This is going to be a thread for… WORLDBUILDING.
Here, we…[Read more]
