Honestly that’s the best thing to do… I mean, would you expect us to say anything different?

@theinconceivable1

Okay! I can try… It’s not like I have masters in divinity though.

@scribbles

Oh! Writing by hand is impressive!

@scribbles

Do you listen to music while you write? Also… can you type with your eyes closed (I can’t yet, but if you can it may help)?

One other thing that comes to mind: When I deal with students that are having a hard time with a certain technique, sometimes getting them to not focus on it helps a lot. Let your brain be sloppy, and don’t…[Read more]

@rolena-hatfield, I plan on it… after I finish math and science. So maybe in an hour or two.

@brandon-miller, Thanks Brandon!

@scribbles, We have faith in you… Any words you write are music to Rillumen… even if they smell like vomit. And for reals, let it feel like vomit. Ignore overuse of pronouns/names/other words, just get the story out. Dump the story out in one big pile and sort it out later. Let yourself be a terrible writer,…[Read more]

I just finished my longest chapter at just over five pages, and 2,580-ish words! This puts me at 2,009 for today… and for this week: 4,058!

This is amazing! I’ve almost doubled my story length since starting the war, having added eight new pages, plus a little of page 20.

@brandon-miller

Haha! Ended up writing a non-fiction document on how to perform a certain kata/form for one of my martial arts students… So it’s looking like I won’t meet 3000 words tonight. I’ll still get a few more on the page, but not a whole lot.

@brandon-miller

Okay… It’s my goal to get another 1600 before sleep, in about 50 minutes. Xb I already have fourteen hundred today (3400 since Monday), so please pray for my mental fortitude in writing.

@eden-anderson

I said… Unless it’s Rillumen.

@scribbles, See ya later!

@rolena-hatfield, yes squirrels are adorable, but the emotional footprint they have on my life is very very small. *remembers seeing a baby squirrel the other day* They are super sweet.

@eden-anderson

Yes! Ildathore is amazing. The authors are super fun, and the stories are just joyous (or dark, but still well written).

But don’t listen to anyone telling you their guild is the best… Unless it’s Rillumen. We would love to have you!

@scribbles

You would be correct… I will not tell you what does motivate me though.

@rolena-hatfield

I am sorry if this sounds super snarky (okay, not really 😉 )… But that was the worst motivation ever to get back to writing.

@scribbles

I never did threaten her… But if you wish I will.

@rolena-hatfield, if you ever call me @wordsmit again, I have no idea what I will do… I’m just having trouble focusing on my story and saying that was helping to take my mind of my story, so you should tell me to get my mind back on my story and write.

@scribbles, Indeed! It is fun…

@rolena-hatfield, If you ever call me @wordsmit again…

@scribbles @rolena-hatfield
I am writing as well, though right now it feels a bit more like force vomiting.

@theinconceivable1

Well… Let’s see… I can’t think of any off the top of my head.

@rolena-hatfield

Um… dude… collecting powers? He sounds like a villain. Is it just me or does this sound like the kind of story where the villain uses the hero’s wish to learn about his parents to do evil?

@scribbles

Sorry xD… I’m jumping back and forth between this and writing… So my attention is divided.
