J.A.Penrose

Heya everyone! Sorry, this week is pretty busy for me!! I may be able to contribute a bit Wednesday though. And…I’ll just throw some ideas out here this morning and y’all can run with them….

When you see a sunrise, it’s like there’s color in the sky and then just a pure flaming ball of gold, and you feel like all the nightmares were just ph…[Read more]

@j-a-penrose Hi! 😄 *eats lembas and pizza*

@literatureforthelight @j-a-penrose Just forgot to tag you guys on the reply I wrote above this one. 😉

@literatureforthelight We need to submit it within 6 days.

@literatureforthelight We only get one submission as an entire guild. I like your idea of a last sunrise.

@elizabeth Will the link not work for you using copy and paste?

Yes, everybody, I agree that we should have a character from whose point of view we see the sunrise. So let’s ask…[Read more]

@j-a-penrose Aaah okay xD You could pass off as a young adult, though. Awesome!

@j-a-penrose Yes, it’s amazing how many of us managed to get in here. And thanks so much! I’m glad that the poem seems to have gotten the message/feeling across.

You may be a third-culture-adult, so there might be some more obscure term that describes you 🙂 If you don’t mind me asking, where are you a missionary to?

@j-a-penrose Hey!! And congratulations on tagging all of us. Must’ve taken a while xD

@j-a-penrose Ah, true. We can’t be empirical about this at all until you come evaluate us. 😛 And the deer are very annoying. But they’re lovely to watch, sooo…I think they stay in our good graces on the whole.

@j-a-penrose Ok, thanks! *still hasn’t read LoTR*

@j-a-penrose Ohhh, I didn’t think about the roos stealing your grass! That makes so much sense. So yeah, they’re basically your version of deer, then (with the modification that deer also consume absurd quantities of beans and asparagus *insert dramatic eye roll*). Deer are a major issue at night around where I live. And there’s a herd of about 20…[Read more]

It’s another Quenya textbook, available a few different ways:

@j-a-penrose I’m heartbroken. There go all my snake patting plans… 😛 (I promise you I had none. Snakes are not okay on any continent. I had an uncle who said snakes “might not hurt me, but they make me hurt myself,” and I share his philosophy.) XD

Sheep are less common here than cattle, that’s true, although we do have sheep, goats, and the…[Read more]

Copying everyone I tagged before.

This is to let you know that the guilds are launching this Wednesday!!!

If you haven’t signed up yet, do so now so you don’t get left…[Read more]

@j-a-penrose Welcome! Also, I agree. Chai tea is concentrated happiness in a mug.

@briannastorm *calls 911* Are you fine now? 😜 I’ll have to be careful with those typos for the sake of your health.

@brandon-miller Thank you. *bows* More epicness is yet to come (featuring you). 😉

@scribbles I am (I mean Aberdeen is 😉) honored for such high praise. Hmmm….chinchillas… *scratches chin* You just gave me an idea…

You’re muc…[Read more]

If you haven’t signed up for a guild yet but want to, do so now. Guilds will be opening in just a couple…[Read more]

@j-a-penrose Have you seen Thorsten Renk’s “Quentin i Lambe Eldaiva” text?

@j-a-penrose

Heeyy, yes I have joined!! So proud of me. XD *waves back*

@Elizabeth

HEY ELIZABETH. *tacklehugs* Ooh hmm…probably a bad question. XD Nah, actually my favourite is probably A Sprig of Green (hence I was willing to commit this entire year to editing it. 😛 )

@j-a-penrose It’s so nice to meet you! I really want to visit Australia someday. Hopefully the stereotype that all the wildlife is out to kill you is at least *something* of an exaggeration. 😛

Are there sheep ranches around where you live? I’ve always heard that sheep do well in Australia. Do you like living in a rural area?

P.S. I’m jealous…[Read more]
