For feedback… “We alone did face” seems a little awkward to me, unless you’re trying for an old English type of vibe. “We faced the dark alone” is a lot easier to read/follow.

We’ve launched a cool new feature on the forum called groups.

You can find them in the nav bar like so:

Groups are hubs for writers to gather around something they share in common. They include a Facebook-like feed and most of them also include their own forums.

So far there are three types of groups:
1. Word war…[Read more]

We didn’t do so hot, but I know I needed a break after the intense NaNo effort. We’ll do better next time! We got this!!

And congrats to the awesome…[Read more]

I guess I can’t be sure, but I assume Brandon has said goodbye to you? Well, not bye, but that he’s stepped down from guildmastering due to an overwhelming work load.

I wanted to step in on his behalf to let you know about the future of the guilds.

Many other among the guildmasters noticed that the job is mentally taxing and that…[Read more]

I’ve heard of poetry magnet sets, what are they like??

Nice!

Depression as of the rain, to some

Where others would take, decorant hues.

Petrichor and chrysalism, taken as of the withered weed;

Brought and chained unto the air,

Depression of aught, this of the brain.

To Him we look, and see the light,

Of Him we read and comfort, have

To set the sun within the sky…

Ash handed Delton the rubies, which were now stuffed in a little brown fabric sack. He hopped off the dragon’s back.

“All we need to do, after we split them up, is make a wish. But, we must all agree on the same one wish. And if the wish is too big, there are always consequences.” Delton…[Read more]

ALSO, if any of y’all have been writing silly poetry, showcase it on this thread! Weirdness and silliness are welcome!!

“I’m sure he can fit us all in a pinch. Come on!” Aleck threw a precious gem at a bat flying over his head, knocking it out of the air.

He ran through the darkness towards the dragon.

“Now where has Ash got to?”

@kari-karast @bookcrazygirl @e_elaine_soup5

“Aleck, is Spadewick big enough to fly us all out of here? Before that psycho lord comes chasing us?” Delton asked, glancing around. “Wait, where did Ash run off to? She has the rubies. Its magic will set the slaves free.”

“I don’t think so.” Lord Deathrock was deadly silent in the…[Read more]

The bats dived downward. Julius grumbled something, and slashed the bats in half with his sword as they transformed into bits of broken glass and dust.

“Alright, I guess we should get going now,” Delton said. “Quickly.”

They all rushed out…[Read more]

Sorry, I’ve not been on the Forum lately.

Tagging again: @nuetrobolt @e_elaine_soup5 @kari-karast @bookcrazygirl

Okay, where were we? Hmm. Aleck trying to run away with the rubies, they’re trying to free the slaves, they’re being attacked by Lord Deathrock… Alright, well, I’m back now.

Delton pried the rope…[Read more]

@anne-of-lothlorien I love it!!!

I love romances

Recently, I’ve been juggling a novella challenge and the 100 for 100 challenge. I kind of left the novella challenge by the wayside, but not before writing around 23,000 words for one draft and 4-5 for another in a different pov. I also thought this would be a good chance to try my hand at first person, since my…[Read more]

@e_elaine_soup5 mind if I put one of my character’s cages next to yours? Have any preference whether it is Matz or Scarlet?

Aleck couldn’t resist questioning Julius further. “But if you don’t live here, then how do you usually know? Do you have some connection with Deathrock, because we could really use that, I think.”

“Oh, and everyone, meet Spadewick the dragon. He’s harmless.” Aleck looked at…[Read more]

@e_elaine_soup5 you’re not suggesting we use that, are you? Anyone on the forum could have read it…[Read more]

Delton didn’t know what it was, but there was something about the darkness, and how it hissed in his ears like snakes, that sent chills down…[Read more]

@e_elaine_soup5 Good start… I think we could work with it 🙂

Anyone else have ideas or suggestions?

Here’s a schedule we could go by….

Monday & Tuesday (17th-18th) – Brainstorm. Where do you find beauty in the ordinary? What…[Read more]

Prompt war!

Your goal is to write a story where you bring out the beauty of something ordinary in the middle of a very dramatic setting.

Have fun and see if you can beat the mighty Saxon Scribes.…[Read more]

“Wow, what a weird room.” Aleck walked over to the suit of armor and wrenched the sword out of its hand. “There. Now I’ve got a weapon again.” He looked over at Rei. “What on earth, or wherever we are, are you doing?”

Suddenly, a strong wind blew through the room, strange, since they were…[Read more]

“The wall’s open. You just have to walk through. We won’t be able to close it behind us, but who cares. At least we’ll be out,” Aleck said to Julius.

Aleck walked through the opening and into the hall. Then he turned and called back. “See? Its that easy! Come on, everyone.”

Aleck turned and…[Read more]

It’s been a while since I posted one of these (or anything, really) but when I saw what Jane from Meraki had cooked up (along with help from Daeus and Faith), I had to make sure to share it. If you’re trying to decide whether you want to pursue traditional or self publishing, it’s your lucky week.

Self Publishing vs Traditional…[Read more]

C’mon, where are you all? We almost let this thing die before, and were not letting it happen again!

We should probably try to finish this quickly so we don’t stop in the middle of the adventure.

I never should have suggested the maze…

@e_elaine_soup5 I liked your first one the best.

Interesting.

I almost missed the latest word war, so I thought I would remind everyone to quickly send in their total words! The time’s already up, but Daeus Lamb added something today reminding everyone to send in their…[Read more]

I agree with Brandon Miller. Why didn’t she tell him what was going on?

It was very well done, I thought.

He made a nice Death; just real collected and gentlemanly, in opposition to Death usually being represented as some kind of phantom.

I am unsure exactly how the site works since I’m new, so I don’t really know how the subscribing stuff works.

Any of you interested in having your character defeat the dragon? If not, then I’ll just have Julius do the deed. Xd

@e_elaine_soup5 I loved the first and third ones you did!!

O.K. Here’s my attempt. 🙂
