@faith_blum This is so  neat! I wonder who came up with the names… and I didn’t realize we were doing so well in the Guild Wars! Awesome work, y’all 🙂

@faith_blum I’m so excited to have you be our guildmaster! I was going to ask you what your favorite books are, but someone else already did, so… 🙂 welcome to Avensbeck!

@evelyn The Dickens reference is from A Tale of Two Cities, which happens to be one of my favorite books. Let’s just say that I’ve read it more than once… 😉

@gabriellepollack I’m going to miss you so much! You’ve been my guildmaster since the beginning (well, except for that one time that I accidentally guild-jumped and asked a question on another guild bc I didn’t know how to use the forums  but that’s beside the point) and have been amazing the whole time. I wish you all the best in non-Story…[Read more]

Hello @evelyn ! (Thanks, @libby , for letting me know about this post 🙂 ) Right now, I am actually working on putting together a short anthology of my best/favorite short stories, flash fiction, and poetry. The (working) title of the anthology is “A Silver Thread” (Dickens reference; I’m a nerd), and I am using the connection of time to link…[Read more]

I currently have a couple main characters for different WiPs that I am fleshing out, but I’ll talk about two of them here. 🙂 Also, @katherineh , I do the same thing with my characters, for the most part: create a realistic person and drop them in a situation to see how they react. It’s fun! *two thumbs up*

*deep breath*

I will try… I’ve been meaning to add some chapters to my WiP!

@jenwriter17 Beautiful website!! I love the Luther quote also 🙂 How did you do the “Book Progress” thing? It’s really cool!

@libby Thank you! 🙂

I added my flash fiction to the doc. 🙂

I wrote a very short piece (maybe 500 words?) from the perspective of a girl’s favorite pen about letting go (if it sounds dramatic, it was), kind of like @sleepwalkingmk ‘s idea. I can see if I can find it if y’all would want to read it.

My only official goal for this week (Sunday to Sunday)- add seven pages (longhand) to my WiP. And, as always, journal every day.

@toklaham-veruzia Thank you! I’ll send you a couple via docs soon.

@libby That sounds great! Any advice/feedback is welcome. Would a google docs link or an email work better for you?

Sounds good! Thanks for letting us know 🙂

@gabriellepollack I’m back! I’ve been inactive on the internet for the last…while. (Traveling!)

My writing goals for this week are:

-to write and schedule three more posts for my blog

-to finish a short story I’ve been putting off for a while

-to acquire a notebook for rewriting the first draft of my current novel-in-progress (and actually…[Read more]

I (surprisingly) did reach my goals for last week! I scheduled four blog posts for this summer and wrote a page minimum in my journal every day. For this week, my goals are:

-finish a short story I am working on

-write one+ page in my journal every day

-edit a poem I wrote two weeks ago

I’m also voting for @sam-kowal ‘s story. Great work on both of them though!
