Sushie || "To gain your voice, you must forget about having it heard" -William Ginsberg (73687) Of course, it must be an epic and heroic death, but it would be so cool if that were to happen! I would luv the series times infinity!


Sushie || "To gain your voice, you must forget about having it heard" -William Ginsberg (73687) #SOPHIESHALLDIE

Plllllllllz spread the word! If ye love me, Gracie!
I know I have a problem, but so do you, and Lemon, and Nova, and anyone else in this group! Otherwise, why would we all be here?

Nova Syzygy (novatheproxy) | 366 comments We all have issues, but it all depends on how we deal with them (if we deal with them at all).


message 106: by Macey (new)

Macey (meesamacey) Hey, can we keep the KOTLC stuff out of chats for the most part? I just finished bk3 and I REALLY don't like spoilers. Please and thank you.


message 107: by Nova (new)

Nova Syzygy (novatheproxy) | 366 comments It’s not even a spoiler. It’s a weird joke from Sushie where she really wants Sophie to die.


Sushie || "To gain your voice, you must forget about having it heard" -William Ginsberg (73687) But it so great if that happened!
Also, Macey, YOURE READING KOTLC!!!!!!!!!!!?????????? YAY!!!!! SO HAPPY FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nah, I like Sophie. She better not die in the new one. And yes, I'm so excited! They are so good


Sushie || "To gain your voice, you must forget about having it heard" -William Ginsberg (73687) Not in the new one, just in the last book, heroically and beautifully, and then everyone S A D !

message 117: by Nova (new)

Nova Syzygy (novatheproxy) | 366 comments So something really annoying just happened. I just spent half an hour writing out a really great review on a book I didn't enjoy, then I clicked save and it failed to save and now it's gone, so...

message 125: by Nova (new)

Nova Syzygy (novatheproxy) | 366 comments Writing is not going good for me.


Sushie || "To gain your voice, you must forget about having it heard" -William Ginsberg (73687) I won't be here again until December 2nd, if my mods would please help me out, that would be great.
Any questions you have you can ask my moderators: Nova, Ella, and Penny.

Thank you!


Sushie || "To gain your voice, you must forget about having it heard" -William Ginsberg (73687) (as far as the writathon goes, you don't have to do anything, it will be open for a week after December, so it's fine. And if you can edit the poll for the competition when people post stories that would be nice as well. If you can, feel free to update the prompts and images!)

GUYS I need some help!!! So it's been my long time desire to start a reading/writing club with my friends, and it's finally happening!! I got a whole four members(hey, i started out with one, so this is getting somewhere at least😂). Do any of you guys have any advice/tips on how to get these things kick-started?? Because we've tried to meet before, but we kind of just end up talking the whole time, whether it's about books or just catching up😂 And I'm kind of the one who's been organizing all these things, so I feel like I needa take initiative and actually have a plan, you know?? So if any of you have any suggestions, I would LOVE to hear!😁


Sushie || "To gain your voice, you must forget about having it heard" -William Ginsberg (73687) Yeah, can you tell me what you have already?
What discussions, books, challenges, folders, (if any of those) Is it a meet up group (in real life)? If so, do you do create events? Do you have a theme for the polls you do (If any polls)? What are the rules? Do you have group photos relating to the group? Etcetera, just explain about the group and I can give you as many suggestions as you like ^^!

Penny | 106 comments Mod
YES! Sorry, I shoulda given a little more detail😅 So we are going to meet in person, and I have virtually no plans😂 It's probably not going to be a super structured thing and we're all okay with that. Our goal is just to expand our reading, discuss whatever books we read, and as for writing, we just want to get feedback and constructive criticism on our work. We haven't had any official meetings yet, so this'll be our first. We basically are starting at rock bottom ahahah😂 I have a few writing books that have a bunch of prompts and writing tips that we can use.


Sushie || "To gain your voice, you must forget about having it heard" -William Ginsberg (73687) Yeah, that sounds fun, I think you can just add maybe some discussions where you can share the writing/what you're reading, talk about writing/reading/meeting dates, also, a chat would be good to have. You probably don't need an introduction, bc it sounds like you already know each other.
That's all I have! ^^
Let me know if you need it more specified or whatever.

Yes, if it works out with everyone, I should have a poll up for what the next contest should be!:) Also, do you mean it was difficult to write for the Forest contest? I'm not too sure what it was that you couldn't find😅


dagger [ain't that a kick in the head] (aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh) *sigh* About three weeks ago, the saddest thing happened to me. I went to Barnes and Noble, piled up around 20 books that I wanted to read, and then only managed to get four.

FOUR.

Help me.

WOOAHH really?? Ahhh lucky! Dang where do you live, if you don't mind asking, and if you're comfortable with sharing of course:) I'm in Cali so we've never had a snow day where we live heheh, unless we drive somewhere where there IS snow


Sushie || "To gain your voice, you must forget about having it heard" -William Ginsberg (73687) I live in Utah. This is the only snow day our district has had for ten years.


Sushie || "To gain your voice, you must forget about having it heard" -William Ginsberg (73687) Wow, COVID-19 is insane. Sorry for not getting on for, what? Three months?


message 143: by Penny, Creative Writing and Together Moderator (new)

Penny | 106 comments Mod
I feel you😂 I hopped off around the same time as you did, and haven't really been back on in months......it feels like a LOT longer somehow??

How has everyone been??😁 What have you guys been up to to fill your free time? Doing any fun writing?? Any new hobbies that you wouldn't have time for otherwise?


Sushie || "To gain your voice, you must forget about having it heard" -William Ginsberg (73687) YES! SO much writing!
I also recently started a flipbook making hobby, I haven't finished one yet, the one I'm making is super long, but when I finish it, I'll take a video and post it on the Other Creations chat!


message 145: by Penny, Creative Writing and Together Moderator (new)

Penny | 106 comments Mod
Woahh that is so cool!! Can I get a hint of what the flipbook is about??;) Or should I wait till it's posted hehe?

I've picked up a lot of random new things: I tried my hand in acrylic painting, watercolor painting(that was a lot of fun!), letter writing(not new necessarily, but I'm doing much more often than i had before), ukulele, and I think that's it.


Sushie || "To gain your voice, you must forget about having it heard" -William Ginsberg (73687) A dandelion!
I bet you can guess what'll happen with a hint like thatXD

I'm doing well; I've been extremely unmotivated to do any school lately, so it's been piling up and now I'm forcing myself to do it😖 I'm almost done though, so I'm just looking ahead to the finish line!! Other than that I've been doing well:) How about you?? I noticed you said you've been doing a lot of writing! That's great!! I haven't been doing half as much as i'd like to unfortunately😅 Okay, back to essay writing now!! *drags feet reluctantly* I'll be back in the morning;)


Sushie || "To gain your voice, you must forget about having it heard" -William Ginsberg (73687) UUUUGH! I have to write an essay, too! BLEH! Our district is doing distance learning, and a good chunk of my teachers have reverted to essays! MLEHEHEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH~
