Nice! Thanks for the info! It does take a lot to find good information for writing. Some of us who are...shall we say overwhelmed by life’s circumstances are really grateful for any sources that cut back on having to scrabble around for them. Sometimes It can be very frustrating to hunt for this typ...

I’d like to do my own ... forgot what they call them now... hmmm. Bigger styled comic. I’ll remember eventually. I’ve got a great premise, but I would need a good illustrator/comic artist to create the ... graphic novel! That’s it! Whew! Didn’t think i’d remember it. I’m an artist myself, but I’m no...

To all- I Looked around the forum and didn’t see anything that came close to this curious question, how much time do you spend reading and how much time writing? The time I have available is very short and I’ve wondered how much time do you devote to each? Which one appears to use more time? Every n...

Older post refresh- Currently I have been focusing on short stories. My novels have lost the time battle. Too big to fit into what I have to work on them. So I’m attempting to develop my skills by shaping smaller stories. What I have found is that there is a general process that I follow. First, I p...

Congrats to all! Those who won, wotf009 Those who tried, wotf010 And to those who continue to strive, May the scratching of your pens tug upon the strings of the universe and bring forth fire and intrigue, passions and triumphs, struggles and sorrows. Go forth to create the next nexus — to fill the ...

Ahhh! Where’s the panic emote!

I thought it had huge potential. However the show felt ‘forced’ to me. It started out really rough or perhaps choppy. The story concept was intriguing, but some of the story lines a little too of base from the world they were in. I would watch it again mostly because of the ‘what if’ potentials that...

Yo Joe, Pam, and Yvette!

Welcome!

Tailoring was a tempting idea, but ultimately I put it aside. However , knowing the general market thirst can help you start with a direction to write if you're not sure where to begin. Keep in mind that the market can shift at anytime though. That is why I write first (if I already have an idea), t...

I kick the ball hard. It goes high, very high. It flies straight and true... Field goal!!! But wait... I’m on a golf course...

Two thumbs up!

(As long as you still have thumbs!). ; )

In my past, I was on a flight deck of a particular aircraft carrier. My assignment was with an A-6 VA group and I was with the alert attack aircraft. We were starting up the plane for a readiness testing routine when the flight deck atmosphere suddenly changed. Only someone with expeience on a fligh...

Anyone still wringing their hands? Trying to see if notifications are still flowing from the sluice gates...

Still in the dark, but then again, I haven’t left my coffin.

Just wondering if... WOTF participants- We sincerely regret to inform you that Q3 has accidentally fallen into an alternate dimension. Due to current shortcomings in our technology today, we are unable to retrieve it at this time. Go figure, someone must have inadvertently written a long forgotten s...

Thank you Preston! I’m grateful for the information. At least I know how it works now. Back I go to waiting... sigh.

Ideas - easy. Stories - not too hard... but fleshing them out into good literature? For me it’s like using sandpaper for Kleenex.

Thanks for the welcome!

Spiraledpen here,

New to the contest and a little bit of an old schooler. Does anyone know how the mailed manuscripts get processed? I’m guessing most entries go digital. Do they get processed last? And if so, last to hear the trumpet sound (or the axe). Just a wondering...

Hello? Perhaps salutations? Spiraledpen here, A noob in the realm of forums. Especially delving into the deep waters of skillful writing. The feelings of a new high school pop into my mind as all heads turn to stare at the new “who in the world is that?” kid. A bearded one at that! I always wanted t...
