Or actually, the middle. I'm constantly having to stop myself and go back to something that got a plot hang-up, and therefore became uninteresting to me for a while.<br /><br />At least you have ideas Jace. That's the important thing.<br /><br />I'm pretty sure Satan is in charge of the publishing house. Otherwise, we'd all be living high off the proceeds and able to write all those story ideas without the pesky day job interference :)<br /><br />..........dholedolorahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08715849844092553699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5667140286579025600.post-72951275214359476642011-12-19T17:47:45.961-08:002011-12-19T17:47:45.961-08:00Of course I'm a naughty girl :)

This looks like something my own 13 year old would write :)<br /><br />There was one key to happiness in Jane’s life: she partied. Partying was everything to her. It occupied all of her free time and delighted her and her friends. Their favorite place to party was a club that admitted them even though they had not aged to 18 yet. They had made copies of their driver‘s licenses and handed them over, smiling. The IDs claimed the girls were 21. They had tried to get into other clubs, but the bouncers stopped them at the door. One threatened to call their parents! Jane finally was getting to have a good time, when suddenly, she heard a bad sound: “Police. Everyone stay where you are!" They were taking everyone’s IDs and puting them under arrest! When her parents came to get her, she was ashamed of what she had done.dolorahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08715849844092553699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5667140286579025600.post-6918438590056672072011-10-18T22:41:15.199-07:002011-10-18T22:41:15.199-07:00I don't consider using word cheating ;)
Fine, ...I don't consider using word cheating ;)<br />Fine, I'll correct it hear - uh, here. .<br /><br />The Thief was riding a stolen bicycle he had gotten from the Clown Chief. The famous Chief had said that it was absolutly the safest ride in town. The clowns had deceived the thief, however. The bike was not the safest ride at all; it was a hopeless piece of junk. Their idea of a joke was going to leave the thief sitting there on the side of the road. Although the thief believed that it was a well-made bike, the wheels were becoming a problem. The rubber was wasting away as he rode. Soon, he was sitting in the gutter, hoping to receive a bit of timly luck. Fortunatly, a neighbor was driving by at that very moment. They threw the bike into the trash and went looking for their friends the clowns.<br /><br />I had to read it at least 3 times to be sure. A tough one :)<br /><br />.......dholedolorahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08715849844092553699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5667140286579025600.post-33336501296502724382011-10-16T05:30:08.347-07:002011-10-16T05:30:08.347-07:00Nice to meet you, too, Lydia!

Not as good as a “spelling bee”, but we Mundanians have to make do. And if I remember my Xanth geneology, Dor had his father Bink’s luck for misadventure; though it was less a talent for Dor, and more of a fortuitous outcome. His first adventure was about getting away from his sister, Ivy?<br /><br />Rather than “list” all the mistakes, how about if I rewrite it properly:<br /><br />The Land of Xanth<br />by Dor<br /><br />I live in the Land of Xanth, which is distinct from Mundania in that there is magic in Xanth and none in Mundania. Everyone in Xanth has his own magic talent; no two are the same. Some can conjure things, and others can make a hole or illusions or can soar through the air. But in Mundania no one does magic, so it’s very dull. There are not (should be aren’t?) any dragons there. Instead there are bears and horses and a great many other monsters. Our ruler is King Trent, who has reigned for seventeen years. He transforms people to other creatures. No one gets chased here; we fare in peace. My tale is done. <br /><br />From Centaur Aisle by Piers Anthony, p. 14dolorahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08715849844092553699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5667140286579025600.post-82109799414654109602011-08-14T18:29:55.781-07:002011-08-14T18:29:55.781-07:00Powerful excerpt!!
