You know you’re an artist when you stare at people awkwardly just to see how the light hits their face.

You know you’re a writer when you can tell someone the entire plot of a movie you’ve never seen.

@scribbles *waves* Hello, Fellow Texan!! 😀

@morreafirebird Thank you! I will definitely keep that in mind! 🙂

@morreafirebird Thank you! With the family thing, it isn’t always the same. Sometimes it’s more of a sibling bond, other times it’s more of a parental bond, and other times it’s a mix of both.

With the bad guy, I do introduce an antagonistic situation at definitely the 25% mark, but there are other antagonistic situations throughout the story.…[Read more]

@missfaeriekaiti I really like how you set the cozy feeling of the cafe. And mentioning the abandoned cups and plates added a really empty feel to it, as did the clatter of dishes out of sight. I really like how you used all of those elements together to help me see the scene.

@missfaeriekaiti Yep, I’m the Taylor that commented. 🙂

I was thinking a nickname of sort could just be Sars. Maybe it could slip out of a characters mouth during a moment because that’s what they always call him in their head.

It was opening day. The hubbub of the waiting crowd outside died down once he stepped through the doors into the café. The smell of fresh coffee brewing wafted through the cafe.

@missfaeriekaiti Thank you for reading! The wings are bird wings with feathers. And you’re right about the capitalization of the name. That was just a grammar error I made.

@brandon-miller Essentially your understanding of what the darger looks like is correct. My original thought was a…[Read more]

@rolena-hatfield Yep, it’s the one with the Darger! 😀 I did get about 10,000 words written over the weekend. Thanks for asking. 🙂

@scribbles Thanks! I’m hoping to make it a duology.

@scribbles Well, I’ve written less than 2,000 words since I posted this, all of which was done today. So, definitely not as well as I would like. Thanks for the reminder. 🙂

The premise is that a six-year-old girl named Casse witnessed the execution of her family on the orders of the king. Ten years later she is caught trying to steal from the…[Read more]

@ashlyvye Awesome! You can do it! 😀

@brandon-miller Thanks!

@ashlyvye I actually have two nephews and two nieces. The nieces are twins.

@rolena-hatfield The mongoose chicken wing thing is called are Darger. They’re pests.

@pookiemonster Yes! The only time I really can write I am too tired to write.
