@rolena-hatfield @brandon-miller @scribbles @pookiemonster
Final tally for the day 2,061 words. Not bad considering it’s my first day, though I plan on doing better. I now go to bed to ensure I can get my school done early, and get back to writing. (though tomorrow will be hard as I’ll be gone from four thirty to eight thirty pm)
Have a gre…[Read more]

HEY GUYS!
IT’S WORD WAR WEEK! We’ve got to go out there and squeeeeeeeeeeze out every last word to defend our title. SO whenever you guys get a free moment between now and Sunday night, jot down a few words and keep track of your score. I’ll gather them all up at the end of the month and hopefully we’ll have a number that’s higher than I can…[Read more]

Hey Guys!
So, results are in for the guild war. We didn’t win. :'( (But on the other hand, Avensbeck didn’t win either so…) ANYWAY, congratulations to Meraki guild and their hard work. ALSO, we’re reworking how we’re doing our judging, so we now have JUDGE’S FEEDBACK. You can see their comments for us and the other guilds in the doc here…[Read more]

I finished the first draft of the backup story I’ve been working on. The second half especially needs help, so please please, comment! I want to put the whole thing into a unique and creative voice. I want to make the story itself more subtle. And I want it to be beautiful. Will you have it and help me?

@pookiemonster lol, drawing was not illegal, just drawing people’s faces 😉
@rolena-hatfield Thanks! Yes, I typically write in past tense. This is one of the very few things that I’ve written in person, so the strangeness might be it.

Brandon Miller replied to the topic Prose Prompt! in the forum Announcements 8 years ago
@Wordsmith is right! Time to circle the wagons and get moving. Y’all have had some really good discussions and you’re working up a few great story ideas. Time to pick one and start writing. I’m not going to post a weekly activity so that we can get this knocked out.

Also, something tells me Avensbeck is not lagging. We really need to pick up the pace!

HEY GUYS. I’M BACK.
You may have noticed, Rillumen has been really quiet of late. And in that silence, I have been silenter. Long story short, college didn’t do the usual ramp up into the semester thing and I got tidal-waved with homework week one. Labor day helped me catch up though, and I’m back in the game now.
Yay!
First up, some anno…[Read more]

Hahaha! This is interesting. Let’s brainstorm…

Hey everybody,
I haven’t finished up my plan for these activities moving forward, but thanks to all of your REALLY AWESOME feedback on my topic last week it seems that the picture prompt activity was by far the most popular, so I thought I’d spin another of those together.You need to write a short scene. Source of conflict? The glass w…[Read more]

Rachel Rogers replied to the topic Regrouping in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 8 years, 1 month ago
@pookiemonster I would say that the description you include in an action scene should be something that makes a difference for what is going on. For instance, if your characters are fighting using something that could ignite dry leaves on the bank and result in a massively destructive forest fire in a drought, then that detail is important and…[Read more]
