@pookiemonster and @missfaeriekaiti, Thanks guys!

@wordsmith, WOAH YEAH!  Go you.  That’s cool.  Go get it, man!

@pookiemonster -For reals… I was plum tuckered stuck. *nods* Truely.

Also! Before anything else be said… I’d like to give a huge shout out to @pookiemonster! She was an amazing assistant, and I probably would have felt totally lost were it not for her. And after Saturday night… I’m beginning to think she had the funner job.

Thank you all so much… but especially you, Violet.

Okay Rillumen… consider the story finished. I have labored long and hard… up until 12:00 a.m. my time to bring this story together. I’m sorry I didn’t have the chance to work with more of you in different ways… and I think it turned out darker than many wanted, so I tried to at least bring a happy or hopeful ending to help balance out the…[Read more]

Rillumen… I just realized I need to be more specific in my request… Can you guys help me with the plot and story? That is what needs the most help right…[Read more]

Okay Rillumen! I need your help… like for reals. So I wrote the story… but it needs a lot of refining… like a TON! This is where you guys come in. We only have ’till Saturday to make this a masterpiece… so what’re we gonna do about?

Here’s the link… please leave comments… of any kind. We need to make this a cohesive web of pain and…[Read more]

@pookiemonster – Oh! and in answer to your other question (I nearly forgot)…

Darcen is a name that is close to Darcy. So I wanted to use the name Darcy because of its feel… but didn’t want people to think of Pride and Prejudice when reading a tragic dream opera. So I took the root sounds of the name, and changed the ending to make it fit my…[Read more]

@pookiemonster

Hey there! Thank you… I’ll continue sweeping over it, and seeing if I can clarify some things about what you mentioned. In the meantime, feel free to sweep behind and in front of me strengthening things making suggestions, and really kneading it into what we want. That’s what we’re looking for.

Things that I’m looking for: I…[Read more]

@pookiemonster

Okay! Well I just remembered that I have karate tonight… which keeps me unavailable from four-thirty (p.m.) to about eight-thirty (p.m.)… so if you’re still on at that point I’ll see if I can join you. Either way I will see whatever you say.

Well… the story took off and I actually finished a first draft tonight. That being said, it needs a ton of work… but I’ll still share it with you guys. We don’t have to keep the same dark aspects that I put in, and there can be major revision… but I’d like you to see what I…[Read more]

@wordsmith @brandon-miller @pookiemonster

We need a slogan for this one, something to keep in mind while we all write and idea together.

Something like…

Clear. Intense. Enraptured.

Clear: we want them asking what just happened in a good way, not “why in the world was it important to write a story about two elephants in a swimming…[Read more]

@missfaeriekaiti… OH! Good question… (Assistant Writer @pookiemonster take notes… I wanna hear back from you on this stuff).

So! Here’s the deal. I want to leave the reader with a sense of forebode. Something that has them sitting there staring at the page and wondering if that really just happened. I want it to be intense.

@pookiemonster… Hey! You’re off the hook now. Brandon asked me to write the story…

But that being said I really need reference stuff from other peeps. And I heard you say that you have lots of reference info from younger siblings. Also… I need to have the story at least first drafted by Thursday, so the sooner the better. If you could say…[Read more]

@pookiemonster Okay.  idk where you live tho so I’m just gonna start knocking on doors.  If I end up in front of your house, plz let me in.  I need cake.

@pookiemonster I mean, we’d still love to have you.  But if you’d rather not, I get that too.

@graceabounds2129 OKAY BUT SCHOOL IS ALMOST OVER.  *gasp* WE’RE *gasp* ALMOST *gasp* TO BREAK! *gaspgasp*

@brie-donning… Oh wow! That sounds pretty crazy. We’re SO glad you’re fine.

@pookiemonster… Hey… you have a good support team. We can help you along the way 🙂 This would be a great learning experience… and we want you!

@pookiemonster FUNNEL CAKES.  We used to get them when we went to ball games, but we haven’t been to one in so long… OH MY WORD FUNNEL CAKES.  What day is funnel cake day this year?  I’m coming over.

@brie-donning

oh wow, so glad you’re okay!  I hope the rest of the financial stuff sorts itself out for you.

I wrote some comments and asked some questions in the doc.  If y’all want to hit that up, I think we we have a really good foundation for the story here.  @pookiemonster, is there anyway you could write for us this month?  I’d love to hav…[Read more]

@graceabounds2129 That is such a cool tradition! I wish my family had ever done something like that together, but we never really did. I mean we usually decorated the tree together, but that was about it. Also, I love your story! That is so sweet and heartwarming <3

@missfaeriekaiti OH MY GOSH GAITHERS! YASSS!!! I haven’t heard this one yet! But…[Read more]
