Steward of the Pen replied to the topic Parimi Alca Creed in the forum Parimi Alca Writing Discussions 7 years, 7 months ago
@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:

J.A.Penrose started the topic NaNovember…GUILD WAR : WORD WAR in the forum Announcements 7 years, 7 months ago
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.
Basically, any creative writing that you do this E…[Read more]

Coggleton replied to the topic Out of the Darkness, a World Rises in the forum Announcements 7 years, 8 months ago
Hey guys,
So I figured it’d be nice if we could demonstrate some of our ideas in action- also, I had some characters I really wanted to write. Thus, I made a thread for if anyone wanted to write a short story for a particular concept they had, and wanted to show how it might actually look in the setting. Kind of like beta testing; if we see…[Read more]

J.A.Penrose started the topic Lesson 21 : Subplot Suspense – That Side Character in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 7 years, 8 months ago
Have you ever read that book where you kept reading and there was this one subplot character that you just could NOT work out? The rando who turned up to offer wisdom, then vanishes? Maybe they tag around as a mentor figure, but are constantly off doing there own thing behind the scenes? Two very different examples of this that I can think of, are…[Read more]

Cassie Hartfinh started the topic Parimi Alca Creed in the forum Parimi Alca Writing Discussions 7 years, 8 months ago
Hey, everyone! I was just thinking of all the guilds and how we now have a badge, or coat-of-arms-of-sorts, and I was reading through our Parimi Alca backstory. Well, it came to my attention that I have never seen or heard of us having a Creed of any kind. Does our guild have a Creed of its own? If not, do you think we should? I was thinking of…[Read more]

Original scenes

J.A.Penrose started the topic Lesson 20 : Pacing to the Paragraph in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 7 years, 8 months ago
Today, we’ll be looking at pacing in your paragraphing. This kinda leads on with our last lesson as it is to do with structure, but it is still quite different.
When you write, you’re trying to write in the way that the reader feels. This textual structure will result in the readers being manipulated into feeling a certain way. Short…[Read more]
