If you ARE actually working on the pig pen, I hope it’s going well! 💪

Did you finish your planet story?! You said you were almost finished last night.

That’s awesome! Haha, that totally makes sense! Publishing is weird and hard but I’m sure you’ll figure it out. Best of luck!

Thanks for doing another word sprint with me and I’ll be around if you ever want to do another one!

Ahh, that’s SO cool! Working with…[Read more]

I’m writing a fantasy project that I’ve been working on for several years, and I’m trying to have it done by the end of this month. (it’s a little bit stressful considering I have A LOT to…[Read more]

May I ask what your project is about?! Or maybe your not writing fiction, but that’s cool too!

But I am here now and I’ll keep checking back.

Yes, I’d love to. When do you want to go?

@k-a-grey (or anybody 😄)

Thank you so much doing this me! I really enjoyed it, it helped me focus, and yes, we should do it again!

I procrastinate so much as a writer, but I find that doing word wars, or sprints, with others really helps to motivate me, or at least forces me to be mildly productive. 😛 Is anybody interested in doing word sprints?

I don’t care what…[Read more]

NaNo has been going pretty well considering what an awful procrastinator I am. 😬😂 I’m having a hard time really figuring out the tone of the story, so that’s a bit of a struggle, but overall it’s going really well!

Aw, yeah, I get it. Ever since the pandemic started, time has lost a lot of it’s meaning, if you know what I…[Read more]

Life has been treating me…um…interestingly. 😬😂 It definitely hasn’t been all sunshine and roses, but I do have a lot to be thankful for, so I’m trying to keep my chin up.

I doing NaNo this year again, and it’s been going really well, so that’s cool! 😄 I was in…[Read more]

Thank you so much for doing this with me! Would you want to go again? If not, no worries! 😀

Does anybody want to do a word sprint?

And yeah, same about writing summaries. I always fail at trying to explain my stories to people. 😂

My NaNo project is a fantasy story about these two kids and an old man who go on an adventure…[Read more]

What’s your project about?! And how has NaNo been going so far?

Absolutely! I love doing word wars! They always give me an extra boost of motivation. 😃

@anne_the_noob14 So many…[Read more]

What about you?!

(and same, I’m going into this NaNo with a super underdeveloped outline, too. 😬 I’m slightly *cough* nervous…)

Thanks for starting this thread, Josiah. I was hoping someone would!

@emgc Hey! I’m glad you are doing it again this year too! 😊

(Lovely to meet you and thanks for talking to this random person who popped up in your activity feed. 😂)

(P.S. I hardly ever name my short stories either. 😂)

Ahhh, this topic! It’s amazing. 😀

Preen sounds like a great character and that “supposed” widow part is making me curious. 😂

Off the top of my head, it’s probably Barron, a character from a fantasy book I’m writing. He’s quiet, 30-something years old, very kind. He used to be a high-ranking officer in the royal army but he was accused of…[Read more]

Thanks for sharing!

I enjoy writing all kinds of different relationships, but some of my favorites are parent and child relationships, very close, deep, trusting friendships, male/male and female/female friendships. I also enjoy writing about relationships between estranged loved ones and the hero-villain…[Read more]

Les Miserables by Victor Hugo is such a beautiful story of redemption and it has inspired me in creating characters and themes for my own novels.

The Last Dragonslayer by Jasper Fforde influenced my writing style and taught me to love…[Read more]

I think the writing community is very important for so many different reasons, but especially because we humans can tend to get so stuck inside our own heads, seeing only one perspective on an issue and we need others to remind us of the truth and to help shift perspectives.

The writing community in general has…[Read more]
