We have another writing prompt war! This time I get to help us work on it, so hopefully we can get some work done with it.
The writing prompt this time is: write a believable conversion scene.
Deadline: March 24th
So let’s start brainstorming and get something written!

Instead of doing a new post every week, I’m going to do one each month. You can subscribe to the post and I’ll only tag you in the first post each month.
So what goals do you have for this week? My goal is to get at least 6,000 words written in my rewrite of my WWI novel.

How did your goals go last week? What are they for this week? I finished my goals last week. This week I want to go through and edit some of my next novella, but I would also like to get some sort of fiction writing done as well.

My writing sucks. No one likes it, and I can’t fix all the problems. I’ll never succeed. I should quit trying and find a “real” job I’m actually talented at.
If you’ve been writing for any length of time, yo […]

@storyseeker, to start a topic, go to the section of the forum you want to post in, scroll to the bottom and there’s a couple of blank spaces underneath a place that says “Create New Topic in ‘(section you chose)'” Then you can create the title of the topic you want and write in there. Let me know if you still need help.

It’s time to get those words written! We’ve got a word war on our hands! Starting today and going through Sunday, Mary 3rd, keep track of all the creative writing words you write. You can find all the rules here and you will also report your final word count there.

How did your goals go last week and what are your goals for this week?
My goals last week were a fail with the exception of finding a formatter. This week I want to go through my proofreader comments and finish writing three book reviews.

The other post was getting kind of long, so I’m going to make a new one. Feel free to share your prayer requests here now. I also recommend you subscribe to this topic so you can get updates on people’s requests.
I have an unspoken request. I may eventually share more details, but can’t right now.

@sleepwalkingmk That sounds like a great climax and resolution!
@dragongeek, I would definitely recommend a little bit of foreshadowing at least. Because otherwise it seems like it will make the readers feel cheated. I don’t think you have to foreshadow a ton, but even maybe mentioning some odd tingling or something to indicate the dormant powers…[Read more]
