One of the joys of being older is getting to go to bed as late as you want... although I guess 4 hours sleep isn't a good idea at any age and doesn't feel so good the next day.
We should have a writing challenge some time where we all have to switch away from whichever we normally use (1st, 2nd or 3rd person).
Wait, does anyone even write in 2nd person?

I think writing 2nd is something that not a lot of writers use And that is kinda insane. Plus my parents want to control how much sleep I get, thus the arguement over mini and pc :l I dislike this Oh, well

Trust me, it's quite easy. Your body just gets used to it, I find.
I think it would be awesome, but maybe that's just me. Heck, I might try writing in 2nd person this month!
Gone back to rewriting Rosalie Gone (and yes, Niccy, this is the one that I just found out got an honourable mention) Bit stuck on my pirate one at the moment, lost for inspiration. Maybe I'll put on Audiomachine and go back to it.
Of course, I'm terribly interested in the idea of having a masquerade ball on the rotting deck of a pirate ship now-blame WriYe! (For anyone who's curious, the pirate ship is the same on in my avatar on the WriYe-and soon to be CraClu-boards)

Hey Mars I like your progress thread, and your stories their really awesome and cool to read, I think it would be a great idea to write in second person.
Even if I was told from my English teacher last year that writing in second person is not a great idea for a writer.
But to me I think it could be a great idea to try once for this month, so I will have to say we should have a challenge for 2nd person too!
Good Luck on your word counts and writing your novels and stories Mars!

Oh dear, Siana, you have created a monster. Now everyone wants to try writing in second person.
Anyway, I've actually realised that we do it all the time when our characters are conversing, so it's only a bit different to actually write the entire thing that way.
Maybe we should do it on the 2nd of April.

Well they don't turn out to be gay. I have to find somewhere to put in that they were moaning and groaning from their massive hangover Poor Davy... He hates wood, and he's on a rotting wood ship

Hey Mars do you know how to create an forum, because I have been wanting to know how to create one for April and May could you explain to me how to make one Mars since you cannot make another forum again for next month!
Also I wanted to know about the ideas you have for your novels that you are stuck with still including Rosalie's gone, I could help you if you email me or PM me and I can help you from being stuck, so if you can tell me about them that would be great too Mars!
