PursueWisdom

@wordsmith

🙂 Thanks. It’s just that I’ve been calling you Wordsmith for such a long time…

Anyway, I’ll try to adjust.

@serenity

Madame: I forgot to mention to you that I told Sir @wordsmith (sorry, I just can’t get around to calling you “Buddy” yet 😉 that due to my work/life schedule, I can’t do live short word wars. Therefore, he graciously started a 24hr WW for me. I have no plans to actually write for 24 hrs straight though, or even close 😉 I will report…[Read more]

@theinconceivable1

So this whole “Sir” “Madame” etc. started with my addressing @wordsmith as “sir” and then it went on from there because we both found out that a few of us here favor such high addresses… Go to page 13 of this thread for more info I guess, it’s a party

😀

No pressure for you to participate though if you don’t want to.

@serenity

Yes! 3PM Pacific.

Goodness me, we all live in different time zones 😀

@eden-anderson

😀 No big deal, really! Wouldn’t it be funny though if there is another user called “PurseofWisdom” though?

I’ve only read Crime & Punishment so far from Dostoevsky, and it was SO AWESOME. His writings have some real depth and philosophy, so a high recommend there. So far this Brothers Karamazov book is great as well. One thing…[Read more]

@kjames0813

Hmm… I think I’ve not written anything quite worth publishing, yet. But I’m working on it!! 🙂

@steward-of-the-pen

HII! Thank you for the warm welcome! I love being here finally. I’ve been talking to @evelyn and @write-owl so far in the general forums, but being in a guild feels so close-knit, which is fantastic.

I’m into speculative. I’ve started several WIPs but haven’t finished any of them. 😛 The first is high fantasy; second was a…[Read more]

@write-owl

Is anyone else up for the 24Hr Word War from tonight 5PM central time to tomorrow 5PM Central?

@serenity

Madame,

Unfortunately I have to pass at this time. I’m able to participate in @wordsmith word war from 5PM to 5PM Central Time, a 24hr time period arranged due to my scheduling.

You’re all welcome to join in it though if you wish!

@ericawordsmith

Allow me to first say thank for for the rest of us Madames who have next to no clue about this topic. 🙂

I would also like to add that perhaps you might find reading books that focus on male MCs/POVs to be helpful. (Ender’s Game, for one.)

I find all of these replies to be very interesting and informative… I’m female, but I…[Read more]

@kjames0813

Oh, that’s definitely called experience in my book! I’ve never been published. 🙂

@eden-anderson

Of course, dearest Madame!! The more the merrier, as they say. I certainly shall not object to such mannerisms.

😀

@eden-anderson

So I thought that when I try to tag @theinconceivable1 is hard. Until I saw how you typo-ed my name xD “pursewisdom”

You made my day.

Anyway, thank you for the reference!! I’ll check that out and possibly ask it for Christmas.

Yeah I have, my dad’s a fan as well, so we’ve seen a bunch of versions. 🙂 Honestly, when you get a…[Read more]

@j-a-penrose

Yes, Master Sith is way cooler (? I think they call them that, right? I can’t remember now.)

😀

@kjames0813

The Story Embers (I call it SE) ranked me into a 43; I consider myself a beginner writer with some learning but not a lot of experience. I struggle with outlining/plotting out my stories right now. How about you?

@evelyn

Being one of the “quick” people is good.

@j-a-penrose

Thank you, Master Jedi. I shall look forward to it!

PARIMI ALCA FOREVER!

BTW, I love Tolkien but haven’t actually read LoTR – I know I need to! 🙂

@wordsmith

It’s all good. Haha… You can address me as “Madame” if you wish.

Although if I start mandating such speech people here might consider me a snob. xD

@evelyn

*Goodness me!!*

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

*BOWS TO ALL*

I can’t wait to get to know more about you all and grow in terms of writing!!

I’m a slow writer but wish to learn more and be more productive, although I’m restricted by my schedule and such.

Anyway, I think my guildmaster will compose a nice long email about it soon at the beginning…[Read more]

@wordsmith

😀 So I guess different people have different ways of speaking. I was saying it like an “Aye aye captain” salute.

Anyway, I’m a fan of Princess Bride and swashbucklers and so I favor that style of manners/diction/etc.

So please bear with me. We’re probably in the same age group – late teens…
