My dear Ereki!

I completely dropped the ball this week, and I do apologize for that. Weird work schedule, falling prey to a cold, and etc….

But nothing that couldn’t have been overcome. I simply and plainly forgot to post this on Monday. 🙁

So as not to fall behind, I’m going to post this discussion piece today anyway. I hope there’s some…[Read more]

@princess-foo ooh, cool prompt! And I do like the idea of having only one writer to make the story feel more cohesive.

Hm…I’ll let you know if I come up with any ideas. I won’t be able to be a writer due to my work schedule, but I may be able to pitch in some editing on the weekends 🙂
Kayla Skywriter replied to the topic Denominations in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 10 months ago

@princess-foo I agree, you should always respect someone else’s beliefs.

So, correct me if I’m wrong, you’re saying that you shouldn’t write a book with the specific goal of shunning other denominations. However, if the theme of your book is in disagreement with another denomination that is okay?

For example, I shouldn’t write a book about…[Read more]

@princess-foo

So far I have zero ideas but I would love to try tackling this prompt. I love the sound of it (and I’ve been reading a lot of literary fiction lately and want to try my hand at my own piece :P)

Of course though, if someone else is keen to do it, that’s fine with me.

Hello again! The time of our contest draws near, and I was wondering if you wonderful souls would have the time to beta-read the new draft of Goddess / Zauberin (link below), mainly for the changed ending. It now sits under 5k words – but I want to make sure…[Read more]
Martin Detwiler replied to the topic Week 14: Writing Life; Self vs. Traditional Publishing (Daeus, Jane, Faith) in the forum Weekly Theme Discussion 6 years, 10 months ago

@princess-foo I did have a great vacation! Thanks for asking!

I definitely feel very similarly about self-published books, and for that reason I am not going to pursue self-publishing with my main fantasy novels. However, I am seriously considering self-publishing some books of poetry throughout my lifetime.

The only way I’ll buy a…[Read more]

Hello Ereki!

Sorry for the lateness. But here is this week’s discussion piece! Without further ado:

Self Publishing vs Traditional Publishing

I think it’s safe to say that most writers have a ‘one day’ dream of getting published: having your book on the shelves of total strangers and sharing your story with the world.

But there’s always…[Read more]

All right, after a well-enjoyed vacation, I’m back and ready to get back into things here! THANK YOU, @seekjustice, for covering for me while I was gone! I hope all of your goals went well last week. 🙂

What are your goals for this new week in the already-not-so-new month of June?

Let’s see…

K.M. Small started the topic A Confusing Post to Eliminate Confusion in the forum Erekdale Writing Discussions 6 years, 10 months ago

Hey Ereki! I’m making some changes with my pen name and wanted to have a quick post to eliminate any confusion.

I’ll keep this short: I’m changing my pen name. Or more accurately, getting rid of it, since I’ve run into a lot of confusion in the past regarding my pen name versus my given name, especially at writers conferences and while marketing…[Read more]

@princess-foo *nods* Yeah, I should’ve tried to do more write-ins, but I was graduating too. Yay! 😛
Maybe if we keep trying we’ll be able to get more people to do it. I hope so at least. I’ll try to do more than just one next time. 😀

Has everyone turned in their word counts? If you haven’t yet, now would be a good time. 🙂

Also how do you think I’m doing as the Word Master. Is there something I could improve on?

I’m still on vacation, so this is short.

Yes.

I wrote a short article. 😂

Typing vs. Writing by hand

Things I’ve learned from my own experience with both mediums:

Typing:

Pros:

Typing is faster.

Typing is much easier to edit and clean your prose as you go along.

Cons:

I find myself easily slipping into editor mindset, and making new…[Read more]
