    No need to respond to this.

    I got great feedback in the facebook group. I tried to come back to delete this thread but couldn’t find the option to do so. I’ve found that you can only edit and delete stuff within a certain amount of time after you post it.

    Hey Beth,

    Have you checked out the WordPress 101 course that is included here in Tribe Writers? It’s at the top of the page. Click on “WP 101”. For menu help, check out Module 4, Lesson 3 - Creating Custom Menus. For managing comments from people, check out Module 3, Lesson 4 - Managing Comments.

    It says it’s suppose to help with the Tribe Theme, but the info seems pretty standard for wordpress themes in general.

    Hope this is the kind of info you are looking for.

    Thanks so much for the feedback Alba! You really confirmed some stuff for me. I want to motivate and inspire people, but I agree with you about the sadness in there. When I had to describe my own writing, I didn’t want to use the word “sad”, so I said “serious” instead. Deep down inside I consider myself to be very disgustingly optimistic, but I have a fighter mentality that comes across as very serious. I’m still trying to figure out how to let the optimistic part of me shine more.

    People who I interact with face to face usually say that I am very funny and humorous, but I really don’t know how to get that into my writing when I am talking about the sort of things that are on my blog. Guess this is what Jeff means about how we do have a voice. We just have to figure out how to use it and hone it.

    Good stuff Alba! Very inspiring words that show one how to use fear for their benefit. Besides some of the grammatical errors that you said will be corrected later, it was a smooth read for me.

    I’m putting you on my wishlist of future guest bloggers for when I get my blog rebranded and better established.I think this kind of message would resonate with the people I am aiming to reach out to. :)

    Just wanted to say that I agree with what others said and I think worshipwriters.com is a great choice for a domain name, and easy to remember.

    Hi Evert,

    Can you post the blog post here directly or give another link to it. The link you posted above requires you to sign into medium and everyone does not have an account. If you can find another way to share it, I’ll be glad to give some feedback. :)

    Good stuff Cody!

    I love how you captured the way she is processing the death that she is exposed to. And the way that her dad acts about it is spot-on for a parent who isn’t sure about how to help her to cope with such things but, wants to protect her.

    Your use of imagery is great too.That’s the fiction writing skill that I greatly lack. It’s amazing to be able to paint a picture with words.

    Wow! What a start! That’s chapter 1? I can already see a series with a prequel! Love it so far! I’m mainly a nonfiction writer who has never been able to grasp the skill of fiction writing. (I’ve tried and need to seriously work on my skills). But I sure love to read fiction!

    I soaked this right in. It went smooth and left me anticipating all that could happen. I especially loved these lines: “It’s like a whole damn country,” he said. “Aint no telling’ what’s in between.”

    Amazing that you are writing from the point of view of a teenage girl.I so respect fiction writers for being able to capture the perspective of characters and lay it out in such a realistic way. Love it! Can’t wait to see more Cody.

    Feel free to email me if you want feedback about future chapters, just in case I loose track here among so many other posts.

    P.S. I’m not pro editor, but I did notice 1 typo in the last paragraph and figured it would be helpful to let you know: “Was he was doubting the whole thing?” - was is written twice.

    Keep it coming, Cody!

    Hello,

    I had fun visiting your blog. Here are the first impressions that I got upon reading a few pieces of your content:
    -informative - Fun and useful information
    -inspiring - The things you wrote about your students are inspiring. It’s always nice to hear about other great people in the world.
    -comforting - If I were looking to travel to a certain place that I had never been before and I found a site like yours, it would make me feel a lot more comfortable about taking a trip there.

    Hello Rebecca!

    What an interesting mix of things you are putting together! I opted out of NaNoWroMo this year, but hope to do it next year. Stay warm over there!

    Wow Angelique,
    I am so touched by some of the things I have read so far. I will also be praying for you and your family and hope to be able to contribute to your gofundme link at some point.
