J.A.Penrose

@j-a-penrose Interesting.  I’ll have to check that out.  Who knows, maybe maybe my characters and Jill’s could team up sometime. 😉

I love reading and agree with what he says here. Especially reading outside of one’s genre!!

@j-a-penrose Classical Historical Fiction? Maybe like Les Mis? Or Charles Dickens books? Both of which I would wholeheartedly suggest. 😀

Except to younger readers. 😛

Bleak House though! Les Mis! Some of my favorite books. (:

@j-a-penrose Oh yes! When I first got on I recognized your name and I was all excited! X)

@christlover *thumbs up* Wish you guys could meet!

@taylorclogston Really? 😀 Yeah, not many people know Alexander sadly. He’s not Tolkien or Lewis, but I loved his characters. I think he may be my favorite author (in a “friend” author sort of way–I feel…[Read more]

@evelyn Alas, the only real debates I’ve had are with counter protestors who hate my guts and internet trolls. XP I wish I could have done regulated, civilized debate before that though. I take it you do debate?

@j-a-penrose XD Well, we have Elvish in our name and an awesome description, so I am happy indeed. I can’t wait to hopefully contribute…[Read more]

@j-a-penrose   I only know a little bit of Quenya. I happened to know that particular phrase because I had recently seen it. I have tried to learn Quenya, but right now I am working on Latin instead. Could you translate your question for me?

@E.Jo3   It’s great to find another history buff. The Middle Ages are one of my favorite periods of his…[Read more]

@april-j-rhys @christlover

Yay, welcome to both of you! I’m so glad you’re here and I can’t wait to work with you!

@j-a-penrose What is Vorian? Is that another of Tolkien’s languages?

@j-a-penrose Thanks for this advice! I’ve actually been working on this, trying to get up and talk a walk or run between sessions of writing. Yesterday I did some yard work as a break. 🙂

As to sleeping, my Dad shuts off wifi at 10 p.m. every night so me and my siblings go to bed. xD

Again, thanks for all these great tips!

@j-a-penrose These are some great tips 🙂 Thanks!

Well when I am sick I drink Hot cocoa and Water when writing if that counts 😛 @j-a-penrose

WHOOP! Go Parimis! I can’t believe we’ve just had our fifth honorable mention in a row. xD

@j-a-penrose Did Brandon judge?

Hmm, the form was still open, so I submitted the words I wrote last week. (Though I didn’t know one was going on when I wrote them.) Hopefully it still counts! 🙂 @j-a-penrose

Sorry I left y’all hanging! I’ll go peek at what you wrote! Do we have results yet? @j-a-penrose

@j-a-penrose Of those, schoolwork and responsibilities are the things that keep me from writing most of the time. (Or maybe it’s the dreaded writer’s block. 😛 )

The weekends are the best for me to write since I don’t have schoolwork to worry about. I have noticed something weird, though. I always want to write when I’m supposed to be doing…[Read more]

@j-a-penrose It turns out a word war was just what I needed! I’ve written 10K so far. Since I’ll be gone the whole weekend I’ll submit my count tonight. 😀

@j-a-penrose I’m not sure if there’s much to say. xD It really depends on the writer and their specific situation. 😛

@steward-of-the-pen @evelyn Thanks. 🙂 This is a momentous occasion. I actually wrote something for the guild instead of hanging onto it obsessively. (Yeah, I kinda have a problem with that…)

@j-a-penrose Who is judging this time around?

And apparently there’s a word war going on as we speak, so I’m off to write for that. *skitters away…[Read more]
