@tinuviel I’m glad you’ve had success with worldbuilding! It’s always exciting when everything starts falling into place. ๐ย My goals have been going pretty well, thanks! I had a significant breakthrough with my world building as well, and while I wasn’t really able to finish my other writing goals, I’m happy with the progress I made. I didn’t…[Read more]

@tashah-claymore @kelly-lundgren @devastate-lasting Excellent quirks, all of you! Personally, I have to say that my favorite quirk is dry humor delivered with a dead-pan expression.

Today’s Weekly Wondering is……
Has your job ever given you writing inspiration?

Princess Foo started the topic Critique: Ella of Cinders in the forum Critiques 6 years, 7 months ago
It’s NOT that time of month again. I feel like I should be doing Warmaster-y things since I’m tagging the entire guild, but NOPE! It’s critique time. My short story is called Ella of Cinders. Hopefully, it’s pretty clear what kind of story it is within the first page.
I don’t have any specific things I am looking for, but all comments are…[Read more]

Hello Ereki!
The question that we’re going to tackle for the next few days/weeks is the following:

Martin Detwiler started the topic What To Do With This Subforum in the forum Story Analysis 6 years, 7 months ago
Hello Ereki!
It’s been nearly a year since the last comment in this portion of the forum. That means one of two things: either we don’t need this part of the forum, or we do need it but don’t exactly know what to do with it.
So here’s to talking about this.
1. It seems to me that this is a tremendous space for talking about existing pieces of…[Read more]

Catwing replied to the topic SEptember Word War in the forum Announcements 6 years, 7 months ago
Kree! Today is the last day of the Word War! So be sure to submit all the words you wrote this week, from the 2nd to tonight at midnight. Every little bit counts! Even 11 words…

(it should’ve been 12. That’s how you now it’s non-canon… ๐ [We have some new members so I decided to put this picture here again.])
And if you put your word…[Read more]

Catwing replied to the topic SEptember Word War in the forum Announcements 6 years, 7 months ago
Just a quick reminder that the Word War is over halfway over, so be sure to write some words! Every little bit adds up and sometimes that’s the little bit that helps us win.
If you want to update your counts throughout the week on the spreadsheet leaderboard.

Martin Detwiler started the topic Reviving Critique Submissions in the forum Critiques 6 years, 7 months ago
Hey Ereki!
Just wanted to pop in this portion of the forum because I feel like it’s been a bit of a ghost town ever since SE’s short story contest caused a bit of a rush of activity here.
I’m admittedly one of the worst of us at actually critiquing other people’s things. I don’t make the time that I ought to for it. But despite that, I do want…[Read more]

Short and sweet this week, because we’re hitting this question pretty late in the week. (Obligatory post of The Document for Questions.)
What is your favorite character quirk that you have ever come across or come up with in your writing/reading travels?

Martin Detwiler replied to the topic Writing Life: Conclusion and UPDATE! in the forum Weekly Theme Discussion 6 years, 7 months ago
Ereki!
I’ve been taking a bit of a breather because I got woefully behind on some of my article writing duties as intern. Also I got sick somewhere in there. Nasty fever. But now I’m all better. ๐
Anyway, trying to pick things up where I left them a week or so ago. I think what we’ll do is create a google doc for the submitting of questions,…[Read more]

NEW MEMBER ANNOUNCEMENT!
I’ve got two new initiates here who have been given access to Erekdale and may already be wandering among us, as yet faceless and silent. O.o But don’t worry, it’s only been a few days, so they haven’t had a chance to work out all our secrets yet.

*flies in throwing feathers around* Kree! Ereki, after all this time it is here! A Word War has started today! Draw out your pens and wipe off your keyboards it is time to churn out words!
