hello everyone, my name is mary and im new to this entire writing thing. i just posted part of a story im working on in the 'files' section and id love to hear...
Welcome, Mary! I'm Maija. Things have been a bit quiet here lately, but I think it will pick up again soon, as it usually does. I just thought I'd mention that...
Hi writers, In case anyone's interested, we're having a Q&A with a couple of literary agents, in our online group. It's a free yahoo group, so if you'd like to...
A true Fantasybits exercise - ten minutes. I wrote this by hand and corrected a few typos when typing it up. --9.10.2005 18:50-- (angel fallen from the...
This was a neat little snippet, very compelling in many ways. Your angel seems... sad, somehow. And both of them come across as very innocent-- something to...
... Yes, I noticed that too when writing. The mood is so melancholy! Strange. Of course it's sad that it can't get back to heaven, but still... ... Wow, I...
I didn't even have one line or visual in my head when I started writing. I just wanted to know if it was possible to write from nothing in ten minutes, and how...
Hmm, this is quite thought-provoking, actually. And the main question I was left with at the end was whether his visions were really real or not, or whether...
Heh, are we the only ones alive in here, Julie? *looks at the past posts* Well, it's okay. ... Good that it amounted to something. ^_^ ... kind ... Oooo,...
... It's possible! ^_^ ... Yes indeed. I think it was the bare lightbulb that really decided it for me-- I can completely see it swaying on a wire from the...
I confess -- I lurk but have not written in several months. My excuse chit is here somewhere -- oh yeah, the month I took over as investments manager for the...
I'm still here on the list, too, watching and reading whenever someone posts. I miss the old days when we were so lively a bunch, and we had the prompts every ...
I really like this. Always have loved the 'magical mirror' type of story, and setting this in such dreary surroundings makes it all the more interesting. I...
I'm still here, but stuff, ranging from sever depression to serving on a search committee for a new Dean at my school (still not finished) to negotiating a new...
This is a brief hallo from yet another lurker... Work - and almost getting to the point that I was laid off - has been the dominating part of my life for most...
I'm also still here.Ditto on missing the prompts. I know they're on the bb site but the email was more immediate for me. You opened the mail,there's the...
Hey there Lance, Sherry, Krys, Bill and Ulrika! (Did I miss anyone?) Good to hear from you all, and to know you're out there still. Hey, there's nothing...
Hi Bill, and everyone! I agree, the email prompts were so much better. I miss all those prompts and messages, back when the group was so active. Is the forum...
... forums? No, that is not what happened. The forums are sort of another version of Fantasybits, if you will, for those who like that sort of thing (I'm not...
... Allright, guilty as charged. I honestly can't remember when I posted anything in here last. *scratches head* Way back when, I was attempting to write a...
Hi Julie! How are you doing? I'm glad, too, that the gang is still here in the group, even with all the 'dead air space' lately. I might say the same about my ...
Is anyone able to get into the forums? I have checked the link at the bottom of these emails, and get nothing but a 'critical error' saying 'could not connect...
The recent chatter inspired me to look at the old topics and write on one. This prompt was rainbow drops (11/4/99) After the Rain by Krys Douglas (335 words) ...
... I passed the 50k mark on... Thurs? I think. The story's not quite done yet, but my motivation kinda died once I crossed that line. Funny how that ...
Completely charming-- very folk tale-like-- and a great use of the prompt. I like the fact that you didn't make the drops a cure-all, actually... made it feel...
Thanks, Julie. I've always been bothered by magic that seems unlimited. Where's the fun in that? Glad you like my story. Krys "Writing is no trouble: you just...
Thanks, Sherry. Glad you liked it. Krys "Writing is no trouble: you just jot down ideas as they occur to you. The jotting is simplicity itself--it is the...
