Well, now! After that, I'll certainly be reading your other stories too! =)
"Just then, an extra loud burst of bird song distracted her for a second, and when she looked back, it was gone."
lol! Such a typical, movie-like thing to happen.
Hmm... I have an idea, for a collaborative writing project (nothing big) ... Would you be interested? I know you haven't written much, but that's the kind of person I'm looking for (Cause neither have I, and I don't want to look bad ;P).
Darn, don't want to be movie like or obvious! But couldn't have her see it disappear.
I've just been consolidating my To Do lists and scraps of paper into one big list and so far I have a sheet full and still more to go on it. So I'd better not commit to anything else till I've got a bit of a handle of the current list. Maybe at some point in the future, but I imagine you're looking for someone now.
Oh, sorry, hehe! Didn't mean that to be critical. I just found it funny for some reason... I could perfectly imagine a scene similar to that in a movie... ;P Perhaps you should think about being a scriptwriter ;)
The thing I'm thinking of is small and fun... I want to get 3 or 4 people together, and then I will start a story. No more than 3 paragraphs. And then the next person continues the story in a post of their own, and so on... Then after a few rounds, I end the story with a final post. I do it with m students sometimes, it's really fun ;)
It does sound fun, and you're tempting me, but I really need to say No this time. But if you do another one, ask me again.
Encouragement is lovely, but critical is how we learn, so no need to apologise :-)
Alright =) I expect each round to last a week or two tops, so expect my tenacity again soon ;P ... Could I ask, perhaps, for a few suggestions for potential participants that you may know? ^^
Hmm, need to think on that. You don't really want more experienced fiction writers, do you? But on the other hand, not total newbs to fiction either. Any potentials from your dolphin school contacts? What about @sarahewaring? Maybe @iamthegray?
