Karthmin started the topic CD Week 9: morals/belief system (discussion) in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 7 years, 5 months ago
Ereki,
Because I want to get this up before tooooooo late this evening, I will skimp on my initial comment and just introduce the topic, which is the belief system which your character operates on/approaches life with.

As a small way to help with that, post your goals for this week! If you wish, you can update us about last week’s goals, too. 🙂

Ereki!
*krees loudly*
Come, my faithful warriors! We are once again summoned to battle! But this time, we fight that giant foe, slumber. Yes, that’s right! We have been tasked with writing a dream sequence – which is to say, quite simply, a scene/short story-ish thing where the character is in a dream.
*rubs hands together* Okay. So. This k…[Read more]

Three seekers of truth have wandered into the valley of Erekdale and have been favored by Frank the thunderphoenix! He has brought them to the meeting-place, so that they can find their feet a little bit before venturing into the story-threads of Erekdale and building their own…[Read more]

Hi!
Here’s a snippet from a scene I wrote today –
My breath clouds the air in front of me. It’s cold outside but I made a promise.
Never miss a sunset.
I disperse the clouds, exchange them for new ones with another breath.
The sun is burning everything it touches a gold that cannot be replicated no matter how many photos I take. It is n…[Read more]

Audrey Caylin started the topic 2018 Week 20: Writing about ghosts + an announcement in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 7 years, 7 months ago
Good evening, Ereki!
First, I have an announcement: when the other guildmasters and I met several weeks ago, we decided that the annual theme discussions won’t be “annual” anymore. Meaning whenever we feel like we’ve exhausted our exploration of a topic, we’re free to pick another one. So I have two questions for you:
1) Do you feel like we’ve…[Read more]

Good evening, Ereki!
Thinking over your feedback from last week, I’ve decided to alter the direction of our annual theme discussion a bit: incorporate more analyzing of stories and practice exercises, though with an occasional discussion and article. However, I’m saving a “writing” exercise for next week, since we’re working on our guild war…[Read more]
