Hey Angela, how many pages do you usually write before you feel satisfied that your story is the right size for a book?
I heard somone say they have trouble with that.

Hi Rachel! Writers use word count to decide how long to make a book. I make my fiction books between 30,000 and 35,000 words long. With Pony’s formatting and the illustrations from Jennifer Bell added, that makes a book just over 150 pages, which is what Pony is shooting for.

Oh, that’s good to know! I’ve always wondered exactly how many words were in novels…

Hi! I love the story, Rachel, and everyone who worked on it! But, do you want to email???

I tried to write a book, but I always make everything happen to fast. Drawing is more of my thing.Thanks Ev, Rachel, and everyone else!

Books need pictures as well as writing. You should try illustrating a book someday!
May 26th, 2008 at 3:29 pm
Yeah, you should! Maybe there would be some way you could draw pictures for the new story we’re writing. You might be able to draw pictures for The Trouble With Chad or another already-written story from this site.

Hi Mirriam!
I would love to e-mail but, my mom hates it when I give out my e-mail without telling her, and she’s been really busy lately, but if anyone is interested I know two really fun horsey websites. The first one is www.horseland.com where you have a homepage and breed and sell horses, and then my personal favorite (the one I’m on most) www.horseisle.com, where you live on an island and buy and train horses and go on quests with your friends.
If you join Mirriam (or anyone else) please let me know so we can be buddies. There is something like an e-mail system on both games, on Horse Isle I’m part of the grey server, so join that one. If you join I’ll tell you what my username is so you can contact me. They are both really safe (Horse Isle is the safest because there are Moms and Dads who come on to supervise)
I’d recommend them to everyone!

Cool! I’ve tried Horse Isle, but didn’t quite get it. Here’s one you should try, that i’be been a member of for 130 days: www.howrse.com it’s free, and a blast!
June 3rd, 2008 at 1:01 pm
Oh- I’m a member of that one too! (I love horsey games!) But Horse Isle’s my favorite.
June 3rd, 2008 at 1:01 pm
I hope you join Mirriam! We can send each other letters.

Oh, I have howrse too, but I rarely go on. I don’t have time… I have limited computer time and lots of homework. More now that finals are coming up. A week and a half and counting till finals. UGH!
