*Speaks into a megaphone* Welcome to the third guild war!
For the next two weeks, you guys will be putting together a piece covering this prompt:
Write the most emotionally impactful death scene you can.
Now, I can’t help you at all on this one. I can’t even see the ideas on this thread, because I’m the one who’s going to be judging all the sce…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 Awesome! 😀 Feel free to post the link when it’s up 😉
@martina Bravo! That’s smart. I rarely manage to get my blog posts scheduled early. 😛

I fear I’ve been rather lax in this weekly goal thing, but no more! *Waves sword threateningly at my goals*
What are your goals for this week? *hands you all motivational cake*
I’d like to finish the third draft of my WIP. 🙂

@martina She sounds pretty firey but cool. XD Just because I’m a curious person, what’s her arc in your story?

@haviloki You just had to use Rigor, didn’t you? :(:: Poor guy.
@martina Cool! Seems like shes got a solid basis for her personality. Where does the pride come from? Is it just in her nature/family?
