Okay cool! Thanks for all the feedback everyone. I know that mixing "ed" and "ing" verbs in one sentence is something I do pretty frequently as...
Thanks for the feedback everyone. This has been very helpful. Rosemary Tea - This scene is not from Yhora's POV. It is from her captain's POV....
A reader pointed out to me that I am mixing up verb tenses in my sentences. I didn't even realize I was doing it. Can you help me figure out the...
I personally love the connection between music and writing. Before I got into creative writing, my dream was to be a guitarists/vocalist for a...
Yes. I love music while writing. I grew up on heavy metal, so I think that is probably where I get a lot of my inspiration from. Recently, been...
True. We have done some pretty serious bird walking here.
Okay, yes the Muppets joke is funny. I did chuckle a little bit. It is true that there is a forum for offensive or edgy humor. When I was teen I...
