It’s prompt war time! This month’s prompt: Write a story in which two cultures clash. The word limit is 2500 words and the deadline is September 1st.
Let’s try to finish brainstorm by Saturday the 24st and aim for the first draft to be done by Wednesday the 28th. That will give us time to edit. If you are interested in writing, please let me know…[Read more]

Martin Detwiler started the topic Writing Life: Conclusion and UPDATE! in the forum Weekly Theme Discussion 6 years, 10 months ago
Hello Ereki!
First of all, an apology for my radio silence for all of last week. A couple things in my personal life went wonky and I allowed that to overrun my responsibilities to you all, and for that I do apologize.
Second, the Writing Life series of Weekly Discussions has come to a conclusion! We’ve covered a lot of ground and a huge variety…[Read more]

Hey guys! How did your goals go last week? I did pretty good with mine, I think. Better than usual. I just didn’t really draw… like pretty much at all…

Hey all!Β I’m back now! I had a wonderful time (got to visit with my nephews!), but I’m ready to get back into things here (and man, it feels like I missed a lot in a short amount of time– looks like I have a lot to catch up on!)
Thanks @karthmin for filling in for me! I know you’re busy enough as it is.
How did everyone do with their goals…[Read more]

@trallion – I know, compared to piano, my violin sounds so bad. But I’m in love with it played by people who actually know what they’re doing, so I put up with it. π Do you have a favorite composer for solo piano?
@holly-anne – Thanks, I will! Those are exactly my sentiments. xD Every time I hear flute I melt internally (especially that one clip…[Read more]

@emberynus-the-dragonslayerΒ *holds out a hand to help you off the floor.* (wow inspiring line) Chocolate isn’t my preferred sweet thing either you know, though I like my sugar free/ alternative sweetener version. But for me it would be nut butter or caramel any day ( if I could eat caramel)!

That’s cool! It depends, I create my solo piano stuff mostly on our piano, but I actually do all the recording on a computer. But it has a keyboard connected etc. I use my dad’s music equipment: he is a composer so I just get to come along and use all of his sounds lol. Do you use a computer?
