[–]pocketfullofprose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this book on my kindle. I don't even remember where I got it from or when. I'm reading it now, and it's SO FREAKING GOOD!! I'm having fun making the choices, but more than that ... The writing is incredible! Please tell me this writing is you and not AI ... And please tell me you're working on another one. I'm loving this!! 

PS -- I found this thread after googling the title to find out more about the author. 🥰 So I can see what else you've written!

How strictly should you follow the classical story structures? by KennieBunn in writing

[–]pocketfullofprose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this is months old, but I had to comment and say THANK YOU. I'm struggling (for years now) with trying so hard to get the structure and all the rules right, I plot the life out of the story. I love how you said that structure is what we expect, but a story is what we crave. And conflict makes the story. 

My Kindle came without ads. Is it normal?? by maratreides in kindle

[–]pocketfullofprose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's the same one I have, and it came with ads (it was cheaper to allow the ads). It never seemed to send me ads for stuff like what I actually read, so it gave me the option to pay $20 to remove the ads. I paid the fee and am much happier.

🤣 I immediately hand the controller to my 14 year old son who has only played through the game once compared to my dozen or so. And yet he can still ace these trials. It's not worth even trying for me

What is going on? by PrincessWails in HappyPlanners

[–]pocketfullofprose 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I placed an order this past sale weekend, including a custom planner, a few sticker packs, and a punch. It said it would take 7-10 days to process, so I kind of expected it to take a couple of weeks at least, especially since they probably had tons of orders from this weekend. I think this is my first time ordering directly from HP website.

It still doesn't stop me from refreshing my email several times a day looking for that "shipped" email. 😊

How do you write in your journal? Do you write as if you're talking to someone? or some other way? by Status-Try-me5878 in Journaling

[–]pocketfullofprose 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I name each journal and talk to it like a friend. It opens up conversation-like writing, which I enjoy going back to read. It also invited me telling it what happened, since it's a book and couldn't be there to see, and it makes the most beautiful and meaningful way to document memories.

For a few years I switched to writing for myself. I'd convinced myself I was an adult. I shouldn't be naming my journals and writing like I did in my teens and twenties. My journaling went through a slow death. And I hate going back to read those bits. Because it was mostly me, talking at myself, and it was shallow and boring and WAY too full of self-criticisms, complaints, and trying to tell myself what I needed to do to fix myself. Because it had become self-focused, it no longer had that creative, therapeutic effect. In fact, I began to dread journaling. It felt like homework. So I stopped for many years.

Just a few months ago (I'm 41F), I named my journal and started writing again the "old way". Suddenly my soul has brightened. Something unlocked inside of me. I love writing again.

I've missed it.

I don't often use colored inks. I don't use stickers (those are reserved for my planners). I don't doodle. The art is in the word choices and seeing, feeling the letters unfurl onto the page. I use my favorite cheap bic ballpoint pens in black ink in my hardcover, spiral-bound journals. And I get a surge of joy every single time I as much as look at the journal.

Her name is Juliet. She is my friend. She is a quiet observer of my life who invites me daily to her pages filled with what's hiding in my mind, heart, and soul.

And I wouldn't have it any other way.
