Good afternoon, fellow Writer's Guild Members!
It's me again 👋 the guild secretary, Bianca. I'll be subbing once more for today!
First off I'd like to welcome the new members, AmberM and... Amber...Ditto, and Cynthya! Welcome to the Writer's Guild! 🙌👏 How would you like us to refer to you guys? How about Amber M and Amber Amber? Get it? cos ditto? I'm sorry that was bad. Amber D or Amber Ditto.
How's life been for all of you? Let's see in the past meeting... That's right! August is almost over, that means the window for submitting a poem for the poetry slam will be closing on September 1,2020. Don't forget everyone or anyone who is interested just write a poem, record yourself reciting it, and submit the video via google drive to referencerequest@ctcd.edu!
Why do I feel that sometimes announcing these things makes me feel like I'm filming a commercial?
Anyways, moving on, the points are the same. We welcome and encourage you to share writing ideas, I encourage you all and newcomers to scroll down and check out all the writing prompts and social activities as well as past meetings.
Hmm, I don't think we have anything major to discuss today. What's the mental state of everyone?
How about we express ourselves with some poetry since the deadline is drawing near? We can do a haiku. Or we can do re-introductions if poetry just isn't your thing. I don't want us to waste too much time thinking of what to write and time flies by that's why I recommended haikus.
you can use my internet pin Ella
ReplyDeleteif you don't already have one in the group
You would be the only Ella. :-)
Delete"Why do I feel that sometimes announcing these things makes me feel like I'm filming a commercial?" Well, you sort of are. :-) We're recruiting all the time.
ReplyDeleteHi guys and hi new members! Welcome aboard!
My mental state is stress because I am taking classes on top of working at the library this semester. So I now know how you guys feel during semesters. But it's awesome to meet new people on the discussion boards and here.
I think haiku's are a great idea. Anybody else have thoughts?
Oh and guys, here's the Discord URL if you also want to get in that and chat or video. https://discord.gg/p4zSbG
ReplyDeleteMy bad The link I just put isn't the right one. Maybe I should leave that to Bianca to post. :-) Help me Obi B, you're my only hope.
ReplyDeleteI'll set up a post for the haiku in a separate thread
ReplyDeleteOh wow, you guys came in early. Hello.
ReplyDeleteI was starting to panic.
Deleterather really early then late
DeleteLol I was out of my way out of the shower when it was 12:07 and began to panic, see my pre-timed post saved meh. Thank god for pretimed posts. But yeah, that's the correct mentality better early than late~ yup. That's me in my classes. I'm always early to my classes but everything else slips my mind if I don't get out of my way to put out all the roadblocks. Sorry guys.
DeleteSorry for my weird wording, time tends to slip away from me like a robbers on a grand speed chase. Which is why I mentioned roadblocks. I'm translating. Okay, once again sorry.
DeleteBianca, I have known you for awhile by now. I feel compelled to email you or text you right before the meeting. How many times did we get an email that said, "I was playing video games and forgot!" You definitely love Sims. :-)
DeleteYou might not believe me but I just so happened to finally get the chance to play the Sims 4 again on those days and got carried away(I'm not sure if I mentioned it before but laptop died before so I couldn't play for the longes), since I recently downloaded it, I don't get to play often. My Mom's laptop died again so I'm not able to play anymore for now, but yeah I still watch youtube videos of others playing as well as the newly released packs. I definitely do love it tho you right.
DeleteAlso for the other days, I wasn't playing sims, I just overslept.
DeleteI know, I'm a hot mess.
DeleteI can imagine that you went through a lot of withdrawal. So how are you doing schoolwork without a computer? Not by phone only, I hope.
DeleteYou're not a hot mess. :-) You're a busy student.
DeleteI'm using my own laptop(was playing sims on my Mom's because it has more GB, but she took it upon herself to reset the laptop for wahtever reason and somehow windows got deleted so no one can even use it anymore), it's a cheap ematic laptop that's good for student work but doesn't even have enough GB to download anything. As we speak my laptop keeps pestering me to update but there's not enough space to do that lol.
DeleteI wouldn't call myself busy as I only have one class. It's the last class I need to graduate since I failed my geography- it wasn't a hard course but it when it came to the tests, it was super confusing so I failed.

DeleteWell, I know you'll do well this semester. Ella has to go to class. I sent you a message in Discord about my account. I'm not sure who I am there.
DeleteAmber aka Ella is here as well and on Discord.
ReplyDeleteI meant high speed chase. Whatever, my brain's malfunctioning today and so is my mouse.
ReplyDeleteWell, you did just start school. You get a pass. :-)
DeleteQuestion. Are you both able to do video on Discord so we can see each other? It was cool at the last meeting to do that briefly, so we know each other's face.
ReplyDeleteim cool with it
DeleteI just threw myself out of Discord because I was in the wrong account. My bad. Next time we can do it. I know Ella has to leave soon to go to class.
