She had three days to save her family from being killed by the assassins.
Three days to stop their country from losing their only defence.
Three days to live up to her destiny
Three days to survive.
Three days.
Countdowns, as a general rule, often add suspense into a story very nicely. Provided that you have it relate well to the plot,…[Read more]

Quick task: Look up, ‘plot twists’ on whatever internet server you use. A lot of those things are just lists of handy plot twists for you to use! Useless.
I mean, honestly. Try to insert these ‘ready made plot twists’ into your story. How random would that be???
A lot of people think that if their story is flt, and lacking in something, the…[Read more]

@steward-of-the-pen Awesome sentence! 😃
@esjohnson Nice job!
@silverclaw-bonnetfolly Awesome!
Yesterday, I wrote 1,807 words for Creative Writing (I may have gotten a *little* carried away… 😂) and 854 for my story.
So far today (I’m quickly updating here before I get on a roll) (I wrote earlier today 😛 ) I’ve done 1,583 words. *whew…[Read more]

Can I just say, you’re all doing fabulously! There are so many words being written, and from what I can tell, you’re all really enjoying writing and getting into your stories! That’s awesome!
My total word count is 29776 words at current, and my favourite sentence is:

@silverclaw-bonnetfolly Perhaps only a few. We need to make it long enough to have a good effect, but short enough that we can memorize it and shout it at our enemies without taking half an hour!

It’s been nearly two months since I did a check up, s I figured I’d give this a chance to see what you’re thinking.
Have you improved in Pacing and Suspense? Have you had any favourite lessons? Are there any things in this topic you’d like to look more into?
What about next Annual Theme Discussion? What would you like our next…[Read more]

For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. ~2 Corinthians 4:6 (ESV)

@cassie-hartfinh Ah, I can see how that fits, but I sill like the other one better. Burn Like a Star is more clear that it’s about us being made for God’s glory to fulfill his dreams rather than God fulfilling our dreams. I think the lyrics are deeper in that they’re more focused on God than on us. Like this part:

Seeing that we did so well in the last word war, the other guilds seem to have risen to the challenge to see what they can do about beating the smallest guild, and so a MONTH LONG WORD WAR HAS BEEN ANNOUNCED.
We will not have a prompt war, and are instead going to focus on churning out words.
