Gabrielle Pollack started the topic Weekly Goals #2 in the forum 7 years, 11 months ago
Hey friends!
Last week we shared writing goals we wanted to reach before the week was out. I didn’t achieve mine, but I still felt like the practice was beneficial <span style=”background-color: #f6d5d9;”>and </span>motivational. 🙂
What are your writing goals for this week?
My goals are:
1. Edit 18 chapters of my WIP
2. Finish those…[Read more]

@overcomer Yes, this was pretty recent.
I should probably tag the rest of the guild…

Fellow writers of Avensbeck… our entry for the first Guild Wars is completed! 😀
Thank you all so much for your suggestions and edits. It was a team effort to get this piece ready for battle against the other guilds 😀

Guildmates! We’re so close to finishing up our entry! I think the only thing missing is an intriguing opening line. Does anyone have any ideas?

Hey all! I’ve implemented some edits. If you want to look over it again, we can try to tighten/polish it up even more 😀

@aislinn-mollisong I agree. Yours made me feel so peaceful and like I was there 😀
@jenwriter17 I loved the creativity in your piece! Super cool <3

Well, looks like it’s time to begin voting, everyone! 🙂
Unless I missed one, we have 3 entries to choose from. @aislinn-mollisong , @jenwriter17 , and @morreafirebird each contributed a draft/short piece describing a sunrise. Please read them, and everyone (except contributors) vote for the one you’d like us to work on as a guild! 🙂

K.M. Small replied to the topic Welcome to the Guild Wars! in the forum Announcements 7 years, 11 months ago
Well…here’s my piece. It’s more about the character than the sunrise, but I think that made the sunrise more important in the story. It’s a bit rough right now, but I can definitely edit it if we choose to use it 😀

Gabrielle Pollack replied to the topic Infinity War, anyone? in the forum Avensbeck Writing Discussions 7 years, 11 months ago
So. Thoughts.
I think the writers did a great job with splitting the movie to cover the different escapades of the Avengers. It was great how they each got to meet Thanos. Splitting a book into different POVs is something that’s really hard to do since people can get more attached to some characters than others and wi…[Read more]

Hey, guys! Today is, if you didn’t already know, the National Day of Prayer. I just thought I would encourage everyone to pray for our government and elected officials, as well as churches and believers around the world. They certainly need it these days.

K.M. Small replied to the topic Infinity War, anyone? in the forum Avensbeck Writing Discussions 7 years, 11 months ago
@haviloki ugh, yes. In the first five minutes of the movie, too 😛 The only thing I’m glad for is that he didn’t let Thanos torture Thor too long. If he’d died hating his brother then I would have been even angrier… but perhaps they’ll bring him back to life? I mean, if they get the green infinity stone, then everyone can live again lol.

To all the Marvel fans out there, if you’ve seen the latest Avengers, I thought it would be fun to analyze the story. There were definitely some strong points in there 😀
To anyone who hasn’t seen it… beware of spoilers in this thread 😛
Tagging all my guildmates….

@haviloki do you mind if I try a version of your ‘sunrise on another planet’ idea?

overcomer replied to the topic Welcome to the Guild Wars! in the forum Announcements 7 years, 11 months ago
Hello, Guildmates. 🙂
If we are going to write a story together, we’ll need a plan of sorts if we are going to make this project a success. After reading everyone’s ideas I’ve come up with method for how we could go about this process. Please read it everyone, and let me know if it works for you.
1. Those of us who are inspired by and interested…[Read more]

SleepwalkingMK replied to the topic Welcome to the Guild Wars! in the forum Announcements 7 years, 11 months ago
@morreafirebird @sam-kowal @jenwriter17 @haviloki I really like the idea of describing it from the POV of an older person, and I also love the idea of it on another planet. Maybe the sunrise is very significant in this person’s life. Maybe on this planet the sun only rises like twice a year so it’s very special. (And there I go into fantasy mode…[Read more]

Jenna Terese replied to the topic Welcome to the Guild Wars! in the forum Announcements 7 years, 11 months ago
@sam-kowal @morreafirebird @sleepwalkingmk @supermonkey42 @haviloki What if we just wrote (in the google doc) our own versions of one idea (for example, the sun as a character)? Then we could discuss the different stories. Not sure if this is a good idea or not….
btw, I really like Haviloki’s idea of the sunrise on another planet. 😀
