@anne_the_noob14 I’m so sorry 🙁 I’ll definitely pray!

@j-a-penrose It’s totally fine. I disappeared off the face of the earth as well 😛 I’ve just undergone the busiest summer of my life, and I didn’t even take a trip anywhere. Some friend got married, I had my birthday, and I’ve spent the last 2 weeks of my summer studying for my learner’s license. (I PASSED THE TEST YESTERDAY!!) (and the picture…[Read more]

WHAAAAAAT YOU WON? AND I WAS LATE? 😱

@j-a-penrose OH MY GOSH WAHT?! WE FINALLY WON?? 😱

GREAT JOB, EVERYONE!! 😄 I wasn’t there as much as I probably should have been for the editing process, but I read it just now, and you all did a fantastic job!!

@steward-of-the-pen @azeline-d

@j-a-penrose I tried my hand at writing it. I really would love to have everyone in there and commenting on it, though. 🙂 I went with the stuff we’d been talking about and just sort of wrote it, but I think that there’s something very big about it that we should change.

The whole prompt is about something beautiful in a dramatic setting. I spent…[Read more]

@elisha-starquill I love your idea, but I do agree with @steward-of-the-pen that they might not fit the prompt, simply for not being ordinary 🙂 But I think it would be cool if we all wrote that on our own instead of for a war sometime 😉

I think we should go for writing about the grandmother’s hands; what do you guys think?

*cartwheels in* HEY GUYS! I’m a bit late, since I closed my email during finals week (it kept distracting me when I was trying to study 😛 ) bUT I’M HERE NOW! YAY!

@azeline-d I love that idea of an elderly patient’s hands. It immediately struck me as something very deep, and as something that could really meet the prompt we have. 🙂

@evelyn Keep working at it, and you’ll be able to do it! 😃  The world needs your words!

@evelyn That’s so beautiful *wipes away tear*

@j-a-penrose I kind of want to try both, I guess. See what it’s like through my own experience. I’ll self-publish some books of my own, get experience, then try and traditionally publish. It’ll probably take me a long time before that second part actually happens, but someday! 😜

@j-a-penrose I usually just type. I can’t write by hand because it’s way too slow. I’ll lose my train of thought easily, my hand gets sore, and it’s not even that long when I finally type it up. It’s hard to read my own handwriting sometimes as well. I like to separate my outlining/plotting process from my writing process by handwriting during the…[Read more]

@j-a-penrose I wrote at first because I wanted to create an amazing world – so for escape, I guess. But now, I’m writing as well to teach a lesson through my characters. They change over the course of the story, and learn the theme. A theme that I want this poor, broken, modern-day-world to learn. 🙂

@j-a-penrose If there isn’t enough room for everyone, then you don’t have to put me in the cabin 🙂 My name on there is Julia Herkel, though!

Welcome, @noodle-mum! 😃

*cannonballs into the chat* I is very late! However!

@fallen-prince @elisha-starquill Welcome to the guild! 😃 My apologies for being late 😛

@j-a-penrose What? 😱 That’s so cool!! 😄

@evelyn Yes!

@steward-of-the-pen Agreed 😉 It’s her new title!

@ariella-newheart Yay for cookies! *snatches one*

And here’s some more LEMBAS BREAD! (cause obviously we need some of that 😝)

@j-a-penrose Drat! I’ve fallen behind on my email (I have 488 unread messages *cough cough*) and now I missed this! 😭

Nice job, @ariella-newheart! You’ve got this! 😄

I’m going to try and finish the first draft of the third book in my trilogy this month. This’ll be tricky, since it’s my finals month. I’ll probably end up doing most of my writing in the last week, when I’m free. I’ll keep you updated!

@j-a-penrose Thanks so much 🙂

Also guys, I’m sorry about my edits if they were weirdly put in; I don’t ever use Google Docs, so I kind of have to guess my way through when using them 😂

@evelyn @taylorclogston That’s some great marketing advice 😃
