Nice to meet you. "disABILITY WRITERS GROUP" Open in new Window.
Oh no! Just checked my email here in WDC! It is getting close to a certain time of the year some of us dread.....

October Novel Prep!

I am going to become a hermit! On the moon, under a VERY large rock. If anyone tries to drag me back out, there are tons of traps! Some are loaded with dragon dung.

Traps to that! Dragon ding makes good fertilizer and if you're not careful...No! Don't light that candle near the dung you'll have a huge dragon fire.
A few days ago, I posted in the Community Newsfeed about something I have been planning for a while since the demise of NaNoWriMo. I only got one reaction. I am not joking. I AM SERIOUS about this. I'll give a few details:

1. Your favourite type of fountain pen.
2. What paper/journal you like to use.

There is more! I'm even checking to see if I can get a free forum for my idea.

I'm more down for typing than had writing, though hand writing is definitely good for you! But I'm not hand writing 50k words during my PhD. Lol
Schnujo's now Cujo -- Run! Author Icon - It can whatever amount you like! Even if it is only a few chapters or a novella. Or do your report for your degree. It is still writing!
Just like everyone else here, I am rather upset about NaNoWriMo shutting down. I had hoped the new CEO would reset it, back to the basic level. Unfortunately, that didn't occur. I've been thinking about a replacement. Two hints; a fountain pen! Plus more time to write the novel!

Anyone interested?
Rest in Peace Mad Martigan! The best warrior to ever grace a fantasy film!
I found a very fantastic word the other day. Here it is:

Enshittification! Now all I have to do is wait for Hunter's Moon to do something funny with it!!!!!!!!!!

Is it a real word? What does it mean?

(To tag him so he notices, create the link {suser:huntersmoon} like Amethyst SkellyBones Angel did. No need to edit your post now and I'm not sure that editing and tagging actually notifies them if it's in an edit. Anyway, Amethyst did it for you, but I wanted to be sure you knew how. But maybe you know how and just didn't tag him because he's busy or whatever. *Heart*

Anyway, back to the word, is it real and what's it mean? Yes, I'm too lazy to look it up. lol
Schnujo's now Cujo -- Run! Author Icon - It means the degradation of online public services/platforms. Also known as crapification!
According to WDC, I'm eleven years old today. TIME TO JUMP INTO A RAINWATER PUDDLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was doing some research for my fantasy novel. I found out something! Dragon Fantasy - where dragons are an integral part of the plot, is actually a sub-genre! Quite fitting, since a few of my stories are dragon based.
As a devoted Harry Potter fan, RIP Maggie Smith. You were perfect as Professor McGonagall. May your spirit run with Gryffindor's Pride forever!

I loved her in Downton Abbey.
*Starts getting rocky hideaway ready for October Prep for November. Don't tell Elycia Lee I'm under here!
Just wanted to ask this. Can there ever be TOO many dragon stories. I am working on a couple that I hope are considered to be somewhat original! Once I have earned a sufficient amount of GPs for an account upgrade, I'll start uploading!

There are never too many fantasy stories.
Now is also a good time to start looking at stories you want to turn into a NaNo (NaNoWriMo AKA National Novel Writing Month) project, if you plan to participate in November (and October for "October Novel Prep Challenge" Open in new Window.). *Bigsmile*
Hello everyone! Within the next few weeks I hope to upload a prologue for a novel entitled 'Dragon's Envoy.'
I just wanted at ask....

Does Cavernhold sound like a good name for a partially underground city where dragons and humans once dwelled together in friendship?

Yes it does, but you should be the person it pleases, that way you will connected with your writing. *Delight*
More Furter than Stein! Author Icon - It does please me greatly to call the city this. The place does have another name, which shall be revealed later on in the series. I plan on more than one book!
Everyone, this might sound rather insane, but I have a VERY strong urge to begin writing an epic fantasy novel!
I am a relatively young lady with a mild case of epilepsy. Having this condition means I have been disregarded for various jobs for ten years now. This feeling just won't leave me alone! Should I do it? A small part of me is still unsure.

Because of my affliction, I have learned a fact of life:

'As an epileptic, if I yearn for a change in career, I will have to do this myself. Most people, not all, will think I am not good enough. It is a wish of mine to show others I can be as good as they are!'

Sorry for the above quote. That one has been floating around in my thoughts recently. I will be expanding my membership so I can upload chapters on here.

May I humbly request your assistance with my novels please? My sincerest apologies if this sounds too flowery, I am a tad emotional right now!

With heartfelt thanks,

Asha Moonfall, hopefully future epileptic fantasy novellist.
