Typical response

I’ve been up to five feet & two inches since I was about 15. ^_^

But the actual answer isn’t nearly as interesting: nothing much.
KR LaLonde started the topic HELLO: I don't know where this post goes. in the forum Knaphollow Writing Discussions 7 years, 5 months ago

So I’ve participated only a little bit since last year (October or November, I believe). I’m kind of computer illiterate and find it difficult to do things on the Internet at times. Finding the guild took some doing and I had to get help. That’s how dumb I am with Internet stuff.

Anyway, I’m hoping to begin writing in earnest again very soon.…[Read more]

No. He’s actually my cousin’s dog. She really loves canines. She dog-sits, too. lol I’m not a huge fan of dogs, and the big ones especially. :O But I like them a lot more now than I used to.

HEY! First of all, I apologize if I’ve already been here and I’m repeating my self-introduction. It has been a while and I had trouble with my computer and then I forgot I was even in a guild here and… it’s all very complicated. Simply put, however, it was me being me.

Anyway, I’m here now and raring to go. I hope to participate a lot in the…[Read more]

-_- I’m trying to open one of the files in the resource library, but it won’t. A new tab will open but only for a couple of seconds.
KR LaLonde commented on the post, 6 Tips for Writing Family-Friendly Westerns 7 years, 6 months ago

Might I be allowed to share a couple of covers I made a while ago? I don’t remember if I still have the layered original, so I can make changes if I – or someone else – want to. But I have a couple and I THINK I might be able to change a few things about them if someone wants to have/buy one. *shrugs*

And I freely admit I’m not THE BEST. But…[Read more]

Oh my! I’m sorry for not responding earlier. YIKES!

Well, I just wrote something else on that same site just today… a sort of character interview. Except it’s over 1K words and I’m not finished. 🙁
KR LaLonde replied to the topic My own personal discussion/sharing group in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 6 months ago

I’ve started something kind of new… I’ve written in a journal in the past–I filled two or three, in fact–but I haven’t done so in quite some time. Just today, though, I’ve been typing up a sort of journal entry using the site [750words.com]–I’ve tried typing journal entries in the past, but I usually just write thoughts and laments into my…[Read more]

*sad face* Back to feeling as if I’m not meant to be a writer. I’m not meant to be anything….
KR LaLonde posted an update 7 years, 6 months ago

My brain keeps jumping between stories … and books I’ve read and movies I’ve seen aren’t helping me. At all.
KR LaLonde posted an update 7 years, 6 months ago

I wish I could find ONE contest to enter and write for. Just ONE.
KR LaLonde replied to the topic Long Talks About Short Stories in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 6 months ago

Thanks, @i-david. I appreciate it.

I should admit, though…I’ve never written a single story 100%. So I’ve written a few dozen intros/beginnings but only a couple of stories have gone beyond that.
KR LaLonde replied to the topic Long Talks About Short Stories in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 6 months ago

Maybe this isn’t the place for me, after all. I haven’t finished anything. Not a novella, not a short story, only one flash fiction that I can’t find….
KR LaLonde replied to the topic Plotting/Pantsing aren't working out…what now? in the forum Plotting 7 years, 6 months ago

Good advice, @jane-maree – advice I’ve actually heard before. But it’s something I keep struggling with. My life is so full of imperfections that I want to write one thing “perfectly”. It’s no wonder I’m failing so miserably.

Thanks, btw.

As the topic states, neither plotting nor pantsing has been working for me that well. Sometimes I get an inkling of discouragement picking at my 1/2 a brain and telling me there’s no hope of completing something. Why have I managed to write pages and pages and pages over the last few years, but still not have anything finished? 🙁

It came about suddenly. No one suspected it. No one suspected him. And before we had opportunity to defend ourselves against his plan, we lost the battle.

Being a small town with a big heart, we were entirely too open and welcoming to most. We [welcomed] even the most cantankerous of fellows. It turned into a miraculous blessing for everyone i…[Read more]
KR LaLonde replied to the topic Long Talks About Short Stories in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 7 months ago

Okay. This topic looks just right for what I’m working on. Trying to work on, I should say.

I have multiple story ideas, along with several book covers I made with stories in mind (mine and others’), but they won’t come to fruition. I tend to see things more in a movie-type scenario, and writing takes so much time… *cries*

But a lot of my ide…[Read more]

Okay, @I, David, thanks for the info.

Am I allowed to write into the discussion? I saw some rather long entries, so….
