Oh wow! Did @maddiejay have a baby?! When did this happen? I’ve been “off the grid” for a while and haven’t been paying much attention.

I’ve been gone AWOL for so long that I can’t remember what the rules are for posting our own writing. Is that only to take place in our own discussion topics?

Oh wow. What have I been missing since I was here last?

I’ve taken a shortish break from this one forum. And while I have gotten some writing done recently, it’s more because I stopped using Facebook as much for a few days.

In all honesty, I have missed being here. This little time I’ve spent on here already was valuable to me. I am planning -…[Read more]

#1: I stand corrected. My mistake completely about how long it’s been. It turns out I was on the wrong page when I wrote that last.

#2: I’m finally setting up my new blogsite. That’s what I’m calling my combination blog and website.

I don’t think I’ll be posting here very often because I tend to spend a lot of time on my blogsite. But I will try…[Read more]

Should I terminate this discussion and begin a new one since it’s been so long?

Yikes! I just looked at the last comment and it was over a year ago!!

I’d like to begin sharing about my Nano novel(la) that I’ve been writing. But to do so here might confuse people. Should I begin a new discussion? Or would I just be better off leaving the forum s…[Read more]

So a few people have suggested that I write the ending first. The following ending would be for one of my main novellas. I admit, though, it’s not been that high on my list of writing projects lately.

WOW! AWESOME!!

GREAT COVER!!

@kjames0813, MANY CONGRATS!!! That’s so very awesome!! It actually gives me hope. ^_^

@ryowildfire, WELCOME TO THE GROUP! I hope you will be able to participate and learn and make friends here. I’ve been somewhat absent, but felt it’s a part of my duty to welcome you.

In answer to your question about writing length I can’t give you the “answer” that will “solve” the problem. But I can give you my own opinion based on my own…[Read more]

Umm … I don’t know what to do. 🙁

I’m afraid I must humbly bow out of all such collabortive writings. I don’t do well when it comes to sharing ideas and the like. 🙁 I often ask for help with details, but the writing must be my own. Does that make sense? :/

I’ve recently become aware of a different kind of outline. The Reverse Outline. It could possibly work. What do you think? Is it worth a try?

I have so many bits and pieces of stories…. As a result, I’m pretty sure I could never do what Clipboard has suggested. Ending the stories where they are wouldn’t work. And in my mind, the ending is the end. Does that make sense?

Here’s something I wrote that’s not the actual story. And the biggest problem with it is that it’s not finished. And I haven’t continued it in a long time. 🙁
