Howdy! I know I haven't posted in a while, but I really don't have much to say. It seems that I have plenty of thoughts in my head, but I never know how to write them down! I wish someone was able to make some sort of machine that reads thoughts and writes them down of draws them. I tend to daydream A LOT and I have so many great "adventures" but whenever I try to write them down, I just draw up a blank. Apparently, I can't describe things very well, and we already know that I can't draw to save my life, so that is out of the question. (I'm not kidding. You should see the self portrait I made last year. YUCK.) AAAAAGH. I recently saw Sleeping Beauty, and I have some thoughts. First of all, why would you have a main character who is only on screen for 18 MINUTES? They should at least change the name a bit if the protagonist is on! But anyway...Adios, I don't have anything else to say.

    Wait!
    What did you just write?
    You don't now what to write?

    Answer your question of why a main character would only have 18 minutes of screen time
    by examining the movie, other characters' actions and reactions to what happens to and by SB.
    Write that examination and your results.

    Examine what you just posted.
    What power words did you write? Power clauses?
    Is there a plot problem there?
    Can you target this plot problem toward a specific event? Deadlines are great motivators.
    Is there a built-in solution or is that seemingly built in solution the bridge to a greater complication?
    Is there a built-in avoidance situation that can help to direct the plot?
    Why is there a problem?
    What if you changed the subjects, words and art, to something else? Sport? Theater? Driving a car? Skateboarding? Gardening? Specific subjects in school? Kite flying? Piloting? Swimming? Building something? Designing amusement park rides? Riding an amusement park ride? Allergies? Cleaning your room?

    May I share this as a writing prompt with some of my groups?

    Sorry -- the clock on my reply is set to a different time zone.

    Of course you can share it! However, I don't really understand what you mean...
    The way the comment was worded kind of made no sense to me. But if you get it, knock yourself out,.

Good afternoon! I know I haven't written in a while. Even my own mother told me that she had forgotten that I have a blog at all! So here goes. The last time I posted was July 19th I believe. It is now September 3rd, and plenty of stuff has happened. I started school again! Our school has the options of a Hybrid style or a CORE style. Hybrid being two days IN school and the rest of the days out of school. Kids with last names beginning with the letters A-K are in group A, and the rest (including me) are in group B. Meaning of course, that literally ALL of my friends are in group A, because luck. I'll rant about that later. CORE is for the kids who don't come to school at all, so they just do all of their work online. Some of the people doing CORE I actually understand, (I have a good friend with a compromised immune system) but why would ANYONE pass up the chance to actually be in school for even that little bit of time?!?! We get to be in school Wednesday and Thursday! (Gr

Good morning! I know I said yesterday that the first Percy Jackson movie was terrible, (I didn't even see the second one) but I also said that Logan Lerman was much better in The Perks of Being a Wallflower. That was not very fair of me, so I just wanted to say: LOGAN LERMAN IS A GOOD ACTOR IN A TERRIBLE MOVIE. Thank you. I guess I should sort of introduce myself. My name is Liberty, and my twin sister Glory is the one who wanted me to say that. I am in 7th (now 8th) grade, and I love to read. Apparently I am a good writer (though I haven't won any contests, and I have entered about 6) but I really can't draw. I'm okay in art class I guess, but I am not creative enough to just sit there and draw. I don't really know what else to say, so I'm just going to post another story: This story is one I wrote a few years ago with some of my friends. It will make absolutely no sense, but I still kind of like it.   GIFTED STORY By: Liberty Pope, A.J. Keeney, Anna Dengler,

Good morning! For the past few days, I have been at a family camp and it was really fun! We hiked a lot though, and I hate to exercise so that was less fun but still! Recently, I have been watching the Marvel movies, (and by recently I mean since April) and yesterday, I finished watching Avengers: Endgame. In case you haven't seen it, I promise to not write any spoilers, but let me just say: MARVEL, MAKE MORE MOVIES!! My friend Dustin who got me into Marvel and stuff told me that Marvel is going to make 20 movies in 10 YEARS. I hope he's right! The Marvel movies are SO good!! Peter Parker is my favorite hands down, but Tony Stark and Loki are tied for an extremely close second. They are both so sarcastic! HILARIOUS. If you have seen the Marvel movies, A) Don't tell me what happens in Spider-man Far From Home, I haven't seen it yet. B) Who are your favorite characters? C) What is your favorite movie? Avengers: Endgame was an AMAZING movie, but my next favorite is probabl
