• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

...Finished my novella about ten minutes ago!

:D :D :D

If you've been up on my "Cursing Solutions" thread, that's the project I'm talking about.

This is the second completed first draft I've done of serious, personal writing (the other being the novel I finished in October and ecstatically posted about then)...and DANG, it feels good!

Now I know why there are so many aspiring authors out there. It's an AMAZING feeling!

Okay...I'll stop.

:D

EDIT: Okay, so maybe that's not the best part, but hey, it was worth an overstatement! Congrats, btw. :thumbsup:

That's great! I started planning out two novels, and d7ue to a personal situation I was recently involved in, the first novel is a flop (not because someone critiqued it horribly....A situation with a "friend" >.<)

I like writing fanfiction especially, but the one I'm starting to write is based on an existing book series with slight alterations (it's based on the "Twlight" series by Stephenie Meyer)

YAY!!!! Rough drafts being completed are great ;)

Many people in my "Cursing Solutions" thread suggested the use of other words, and I chose to go with the word "sham" instead of the alternative. It may or may not change again in the future, but for now that's what I've got. Thanks for your interest :)
