Hey friends!
Two weeks ago, we started a thread about our books. Why not start another about our characters? If it interests you, go ahead and share about one or two of your characters! You can tell us about some of their interests, their goals, backstory, quirks, anything like that. You can also share a snippet with them in it to give us a sense…[Read more]

Gabrielle Pollack started the topic Fall/Winter Writing Goals in the forum Accountability & Achievements 7 years, 9 months ago
Autumn is officially upon us! *throws a handful of fall leaves* That means it’s time to set some fall/winter goals!
First and foremost, how did you guys do on your summer goals? I know we added a bunch of new members since last time we did this, so not everyone has them. But if you set some, did you reach them? Did anything big happen in your w…[Read more]

@libby Poetry counts 🙂
@jenwriter17 You can still cheer your fellow guildlings on, but as of now, the guildmasters decided outlining doesn’t count in word wars. 🙁 Sorry. 🙁 There’s always next word war, though!

@libby I would love to hear specific feedback of the places that could be touched up! If you don’t mind taking the time to explain. 🙂

@libby Thanks! Do you think the amount of syllables in a line is too weird and out of pattern?

Hey Avensers!
It’s time for our second guild word war!
How it works: Each guild will keep track of the words they wrote for a week. Once that week is over, each guild adds up how many words they wrote and compares the number with the other guilds. 🙂 I know last time we had a whole sign up form and everything, but we aren’t using that now. All…[Read more]

@kb-writer @libby Your peoms are both so fun!
Here’s one of mine:
Dinner
Mom and Dad went on a date
And left us on our own,
To scour pantries for some food
And make our meals alone.
Sally made a smoothie snack,
Using greens and berries,
Added glops of peanut butter,
Then some chopped-up cherries.
Billy went for meat and…

Haha! This will quickly turn into a music discussion if we’re not careful!
Eleven years. Wow! That’s awesome! I was a little late getting started, but have enjoyed every bit of it (except practice, on some occasions). 🙂 I’ve never quite found a guitar method I like, so I’ve sort of created my own method when teaching it. If you want to…[Read more]

I love Stopping by Woods in a Snowy Evening (I think that’s the title). My favorite of his was “One step Backwards”, but I don’t have it all memorized anymore. I also liked “The road less traveled” and “Nothing Gold Can Stay”.
I need to read some of their poetry, then! I feel woefully unread in the poetry sphere. Though I…[Read more]

@libby Signed up. 🙂
Yes! Fellow poet and poetry admirer! It is wonderful to meet you as well. 😀 I typically write free verse, though sometimes when my inspiration and endurance levels are peaked I will actually attempt to rhyme. I definitely have a favorite poem; as for poets, I’ll have to say William Wordsworth. xD I like that a lot of his…[Read more]

@SeekJustice Yes, I am indeed a Christian. xD And yes, awesome! I’m already looking for places. 🙂 And yes, it does definitely hold more reward, you’re right. Definitely working on it. 😀
@Libby Thank you so much! I really appreciate it! I love that bible verse, too. So good. <3

@libby *gasps* That website is awesome!! And yes, I absolutely love to write poetry, though most of it is just on Google Docs or something. xD Wow, that’s so cool and I’ll definitely check out your work. Not only do I like writing poetry but I like reading it too, so this should be fun for me. 🙂

Thanks @libby @evelyn. I only dabbled in poetry in the elementary grades. I really like poetry, but I am very unexperienced.
Here’s the first chapter’s piece:
On opposite sides, gaze meets gaze, across a dark chasm so great.
A choice to be made. To continue to love, or to bow to hate.
Everyone tells them to turn away, to abandon the o…[Read more]

Hey friends! I’ve got a brief tip regarding info dumps for ya.
For an info dump to grab readers attention, it has to be important. One of the best ways to make a bunch of information meaningful is by adding emotion.
Perhaps a scale-covered wolf the size of a horse inhabits the woods somewhere in your MC’s world. You need to tell readers that…[Read more]
