First of all, I apologize for getting this to you so late, but we have a writing prompt war! We can brainstorm this week and then start writing it. The final product needs to be ready by June 30th.
Here is the prompt: Write a story where you bring out the beauty of something ordinary in the middle of a very dramatic setting.
Have fun…[Read more]

Today’s topic is about changing up writing habits when writing becomes dull and was written by Brandon!
Okay so all of you have gone through the phase where writing isn’t “fun” anymore, right? It’s not necessarily that you’re stuck or that you don’t have a good idea or that your book isn’t going well… it’s just that given the choice to curl up…[Read more]

Faith Blum started the topic Writing Life: Topic 14 in the forum Weekly Theme Discussion 6 years, 11 months ago
Today’s topic was a combination effort from Daeus, Jane, and myself. We are talking about traditional vs. self-publishing.
I think it’s safe to say that most writers have a ‘one day’ dream of getting published: having your book on the shelves of total strangers and sharing your story with the world.
But there’s always that big question: are you…[Read more]

Today’s discussion topic is about Typing vs. Writing by hand and was written by Martin Detwiler.
Things I’ve learned from my own experience with both mediums:
Typing:
Pros:
Typing is faster.
Typing is much easier to edit and clean your prose as you go along.
Cons:
I find myself easily slipping into editor mindset, and making new content at…[Read more]

@kaleigh-flowers What is this? The great Ydubs migration?
-
XD I guess. You were the one who suggested that I join Story Embers though.
-
Was I? I don’t remember. XD
It just seems like people keep on coming, though. You’re the third in like as many weeks.
-
-
XD lol
Really? I didn’t know that .-
Yeah. Ben’s here. And LianaJDouglas is from Ydubs.
-
-
Huh, interesting. How long have you been around?
-
Oh, um… hm… I can’t remember, actually. Wow maybe around an actual year. O.O
I joined SE way before I joined Ydubs is all I know for sure.
-
-
Okie doke, I was just curious. I obviously haven’t been around for long 😉
-
XD Nope. I was just looking who the newest member of SE was and was like WHAT SHE’S HERE AWESOME.
But I feel old now…
-
-
lol Thanks I think XD
Don’t feel old, V. You couldn’t have been around for that long. Then again, what do I know?-
You’re welcome. XD
I think it’s been like a year tho which is insane. Plus I’m gonna be 15 in November which is also making me feel old. Ahhh I don’t wanna be old I wanna be young forevah
-
-
Oof, it’s weird to think about that. I wanna grow up but at the same time, I wish that I could just be a little kid forever lol.
-
ikr? I want to just stop at 16.
-
-
Same tho XD It kinda scares me that one day I’ll have to get a job and support myself. Maybe I’m just lazy that way.
-
Nope. Not lazy. I feel the same way. (Or maybe we’re just both lazy. XD)
-
-
(Also true XD)
And the thought of not having summers off anymore? That’s just depressing.-
But… I don’t have summers off anyway…
-
-
What!? Don’t tell me that you do school during the summer too…
-
I do it during the summer too.
-
-
No!! *cries* You poor child.
-
Thank you.
-
-
I have several other homeschooled friends that have to do school through the summer, and it’s lameeee. I had to do it one year when I got really behind, and it was awful
-
I get a break for like a month every time I finish a subject, but only from that subject. And then I just keep going.
-
-
Well, that’s better than no break at all I guess. But still.
-
True.
-
-
*shakes head sadly* Well, when you graduate at age sixteen, you can make fun of the rest of us then.
-
XD I doubt that’ll happen.
-
-
*winks* Hey, you never know.
-
I suppose
-
-
XD Well, you’ll at least be smarter than the rest of us.
-
Maybe. XD
-
-
*shakes head* I’m just trying to look at the bright side here.
-
XD And I’m being purposely pessimistic ish.
-
-
lol I can see that XD
