Hey Parimis!

The entry is completed and @j-a-penrose has asked me to let you know that she will be submitting it shortly (she’s having technical difficulties getting on the forum). Stellar work, everyone! Thank you all for the effort you put into making this entry great. It was fun working with y’all, as always!

And now we await the results……[Read more]

@taylorclogston Yay! I happened to stumble on this. XD

Wow! Dark Places sounds… dark.  😛

Anyways…

I began work on a new short story this month and have been slowly writing up entries on one of my worlds. Which is super fun and interesting! But sorting through scattered notes can become a bit tedious. 😛  And then I wrote some poetry as u…[Read more]

@taylorclogston

Woops, so I completely misunderstood which week this was for!

What I’ve Played: So Kingdom Hearts 3 came out, and as the finale for the arc of the story thus far I was heavily anticipating it. It also serves as an object lesson in writing, if you’ve followed the series- is anyone else here a fan of KH? I don’t want to talk about…[Read more]

@taylorclogston Oops, messed up your tag. See above post.

@daeus-lamb Okay. Thanks. I hope I get to meet you in person there.

I joined the Facebook group and found someone else who was looking for a roommate. Thanks for responding.

@parker @nuetrobolt @brandon-miller @theinconceivable1 @taylorclogston

Thanks, guys! I appreciate your getting back to me.

I recon I’ll just book a room and hope someone decides to split the cost later. :-j

@brandon-miller I look forward to meeting you!

Anyone else?

@taylorclogston @julia I think we could do a sequel or two, depending on how many other things authors often say. I’ll have to check the “Crazy Writers, Artists, and Dragons” thread to see if there’s any more. It’s where I got most of the quotes for the first one.

Glad you liked the video!!

@taylorclogston Zalal’s greater-scope view is honestly something I’ve been trying to mull over myself. Here was my thought process behind him, maybe it’ll help you see where I want to end up:

1. Write a genuinely evil villain to show that a) any excuses he might try and provide does not make evil any less evil, b) show that people with no…[Read more]

@taylorclogston

Hmm… 1) study other people – what makes them unique, distinctive, from others, and 2) find the right words to draw them out for the reader on page 😛  And 3) still make it work in the plot. Currently, I’m working on studying personalities… and even trying to see if I can get one of my characters imitating another character I…[Read more]

@j-a-penrose @taylorclogston @evelyn @steward-of-the-pen Actually, I was wondering if you guys could help out with my antagonist’s motive.

The idea I had was that Zalal, back when he was a good guy and an apprentice paladin, wanted “To be appreciated/respected for my talent”. However, because he didn’t learn that “Respect worth having is based…[Read more]

@taylorclogston

Interesting re:first person. Do you think it’s a matter of it being more immersive?

That’s probably it, or since I’ve used first person in most of my books I have a lot more experience writing that way. 😛

@taylorclogston Hey, Steward here! Just wanted give you the update that I finished your novella, so you’re not wondering if I forgot. 😛 I’m going to review it again so I can better answer your questions, and hopefully I’ll have some feedback for you in the next few days. (I’m sorry it took me so long—school attacked me and I had a lot to read…[Read more]
