@j-a-penrose Oh dear. Six hours? I think last week I spent that much time trying to figure out how cells make energy. xD I won’t be having any more creative writing assignments this year—it was just those two in October, so I have to work on my own projects for my word count. Trouble is, I’m plotting again. *facepalm* Are you doing all that in…[Read more]

@evelyn Great dialogue! I’m starting to really like Miss Agnes. Can’t wait to hear more from her!
@writercatherine Hey, I actually heard about that contest yesterday. Good luck! (Yes, stuffed dolphins are extremely important. *nods wisely*)

YES!
Everyone we got this! WE’RE GOING TO WIN!!!
*cheers*
Though… I suddenly realized the other day while talking about guilds that our victory is still not documented in the Hall of Fame. :'( No sure why… xD
@j-a-penrose Lol I love that sentence! It’s cracking me up right now. xD

@j-a-penrose, I got a bunch out of the prologue and epilogue lessons too. I also loved the hint dropping, plot-twist, and timing of back-story. I’d love some more info on the plot twisting! The lessons on the whole have been super good though! I’ve learned a lot 🙂

Steward of the Pen replied to the topic Lesson 22 : Feedback Time in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 7 years, 7 months ago
Hmm, I think my favorite lessons were the prologue and epilogue ones, because (well, for one, misused prologues and epilogues are still one of my pet peeves :P) it ended up working out perfectly to have the two reflect each other in Dahop’s Ember. It really helped bring out the theme and motifs that will be used through the whole s…[Read more]

I was wondering, did we have a dedicated thread for reporting times we’ll be absent? I ask this because I’ll be under the gun until around Thanksgiving, but wasn’t sure where to mention it.

@j-a-penrose I’ve enjoyed the lessons so far! Thanks for writing them all out. 🙂

Cassie Hartfinh replied to the topic Lesson 22 : Feedback Time in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 7 years, 7 months ago
@j-a-penrose Well, I guess I’d have to say that the thing I struggle with most right now, is staying within the mind of my main character even though I’m in 3rd person POV. I do better at putting myself in her mind when I’m in 1st person, but 3rd person works best for my current WIP, so…
HELP!!!

@ariella-newheart OHMIGOSHILOVEIT!!! Tell me more!!!
@j-a-penrose As of November 1-4, I have written 11,237 words.
…yep…
I decided to unofficially join the write-a-novel-in-one-month challenge. So I’m spending hours just writing nonstop. Hopefully by the 30th I’ll have close to 100,000 words for the guild!!

@cassie-hartfinh @steward-of-the-pen @j-a-penrose @evelyn @julia @esjohnson @silverclaw-bonnetfolly – Here’s the poem I was talking about on the other topic. Thoughts and critiques are welcome. 🙂

Beyond my window, the Dark.
In my heart, the Light.
At this time, a Spark.
A candle that rallies a fight.

Congratulations Parimi Alca! Great job!
And maybe I’ll be able to remember your name, instead of just ‘Jess Penrose’s guild that has a two word name’.

@j-a-penrose I wrote 218 for creative writing in school yesterday, and 1,227 for my own book. 🙂

Gina had managed to force her hair into submission by tying it in a messy bun. Somehow, the messy bun looked messy in a way that was… artful. Like every stray hair, every imperfection, somehow added to its gloriousness. Now, wh…

I like the idea of writing it ourselves and based off of a verse!
Good ideas everyone!!

What an awesome idea! Erm, here are a few verses (all from NKJV) about light that I dug up. We could possibly use these to compose a song.
The people who walked in darkness Have seen a great light; Those who dwelt in the land of the shadow of death, Upon them a light has…[Read more]
