@e-jo3 Short story writing will just be short, fun competitions. It’ll just be another way we can hone our writing skills. Also, that’s a great goal! Publishing is always a kinda terrifying prospect, but it’s also such a blessing.

@steward-of-the-pen Yeeeup that’d be a good idea. *nodnod*

@cassie-hartfinh
So, first up, congrats! You’ve reached a huge step in your writing journey! *throws confetti*

But now, let’s get down to business.

Firstly, I’d very strongly advise seeking a professional edit from someone before starting to pitch your novel. Find a reputable editor, and see where that goes. From what I can tell, if a publishing…[Read more]

@evelyn You’re all good, Evelyn. It’s mostly for fun, not as a cemented commitment. Thanks so much for all you’ve done over the years for us Parimis! <3

@anne_the_noob14

Prompt wars are back in! 😉

As the person who was writing them, I can totally get why it was hard to keep up with reading the regular lessons. Every day, my inbox tells me I have between 2-5 blog posts to read, and I just can’t do it all the time. People not reading articles and posts is something I’m getting better at…[Read more]

@steward-of-the-pen

Brilliant ideas, and 100% what I was thinking. xD So, good to see that my brain is in the same place as someone else’s. For judging, I’d say that’d be good, and to do it with a bit of guidance. As with most of these things, I’d have to check over everything before it’s official, simply because that’s what’s expected.

@taylorclogston

Awesome! Regular short stories has been quite vocally missed by a lot of people, so I’ll be very happy to bring those back.

As for lessons, that’s great! I’ll toss your name down on the list and we’ll see what happens from there.

So, depending on what things change in Parimi Alca, the responsibilities will most likely be…[Read more]

@anne_the_noob14 All good, shall be praying. <3

@elisha-starquill Yas, it is great!

@ariella-newheart I’ve missed you tooooo! <3

@anne_the_noob14 Yes, twas my last year at highschool. I shall be participating in a short linguistics course, not teaching it. Yikes. 😅 I’d love to teach English as a second language at some point, but I’m honestly just waiting for God to continue leading me.…[Read more]

@ariella-newheart
Oh my goodness! This is a great idea! Thanks for using your initiative like that. Very cool.

@steward-of-the-pen *hugs* Yas, I am back! And thanks!

@taylorclogston Ey, well, we can become active again together! 😬😊 And thank you, it’s nice to be done. I’m hoping to do a course in linguistics soon, and mostly focus on my writing, editing, and possibly doing more one-on-one teaching of writing.
@anne_the_noob14 YAS I am back! I missed you…[Read more]

I like the plot idea! (Sorry guys! I am around, things just get lost in my inbox very quickly these days. xD)

I’m happy with you guys writing it, and I’ll be around for a fair bit of input now. I don’t have anything much due. *shoves school to the side* I’m more on top of stuff than most of my friends anyways, so yep. I’m available.

Seeing that it’s Daeus judging, I’d be saying go for serious. He’s into serious, symbolic stories. Jane and I enjoy action, feels, and humour. Faith loves sweetness. Maddie loves…I don’t know what Maddie loves. Martain is a bit like Daeus.

So yes. I’d be considering aiming for serious, and probably a…[Read more]

Okay, sorry for being late to the game.

Daeus is judging! And I love all of your ideas!
