What Am said. My mom thinks any kind of honor ceremony is a waste of time just because she hates going to them. But if you enjoyed it, then it wasn't a waste of time.

Taylor_Writes · 08-31-2011, 05:21 AM

Yeah, sure, but my mother ruined it by complaining he whole way home on how she hasn't been in the houseall day, and that it was a waste of a night, and all that crap. It defiitely spoiled it.

amlptj · 08-31-2011, 05:29 AM

try not to let it get to you

Arianna Sterling · 08-31-2011, 06:06 AM

So. I like...finished Weeping, guys.

amlptj · 08-31-2011, 06:10 AM

CONGRATS!!!

Zoombie · 08-31-2011, 06:15 AM

Woohooooo!

Arianna Sterling · 08-31-2011, 06:23 AM

Thaaaaaaank you

Horserider · 08-31-2011, 06:26 AM

YAY Arianna!

Arianna Sterling · 08-31-2011, 06:49 AM

Thaaaaank you

Taylor_Writes · 08-31-2011, 06:59 AM

Yaaaay! That's great!

Imbroglio · 08-31-2011, 07:07 AM

Hey, do you guys wanna do me a huge favor?

amlptj · 08-31-2011, 07:12 AM

Which would be???

Imbroglio · 08-31-2011, 07:15 AM

Basically, what I'd like you guys to do for me is write a one sentence summary for a fantasy plot that seems interesting to you.

For example, "A prince must rescue a princess from an evil dragon," or, "A young boy must battle against an evil lord and his army after he discovers a magickal artifact."

Just as two generic examples, lol.

Taylor_Writes · 08-31-2011, 07:24 AM

That could come in handy with me as well. Hahah

Imbroglio · 08-31-2011, 07:25 AM

Haha, well I've been world-building all day, and it wasn't until about an hour ago that I became too frustrated to continue.

I decided that before I do anything else, I need to decide on a plot concept to design the world around.

I've tried the opposite, and I ended up failing miserably.

Arianna Sterling · 08-31-2011, 07:26 AM

Hm...one sentence stuff could be a challenge.

Taylor_Writes · 08-31-2011, 07:27 AM

All day, I've been writing out the four main characters descriptions. They're not the only main characters, of course, but they appear the most, and it would help me with the plotting and such.

Yeah, well anything works really. I've been brainstorming and I think I'm fried. Haha.

ETA: Also yeah, Taylor, I've been doing that too, but I mostly spent my time on my main character today. The others will have to wait.

Taylor_Writes · 08-31-2011, 07:31 AM

I've fallen in love with one of my MMCs. He's amazing

Hahah

Arianna Sterling · 08-31-2011, 07:33 AM

I'm designing the cast of Lifelike at the moment. I want to start on it ASAP.

And what kind of fantasy are you aiming for, Glo? High fantasy/sword and sorcery stuff, more faerie-ish light stuff, dark fantasy, UF...?

Imbroglio · 08-31-2011, 07:34 AM

Yeah, I'm aiming for a High/Epic Fantasy type deal here.

Arianna Sterling · 08-31-2011, 07:35 AM

Hm. I won't be much good there. I don't read much of that variety.

Imbroglio · 08-31-2011, 07:38 AM

That's okaaaay. I suppose I'll just have to sleep on it, haha. :]

Taylor_Writes · 08-31-2011, 07:45 AM

Sleeping on it never works for me

Well, barely.

Imbroglio · 08-31-2011, 07:48 AM

I think I'm going through a rough patch in my writing life or something. I've been really uninspired recently. :\
