I'd like to see a section on connotation vs denotation and something dealing with word choice posted here: http://fifteenminutesoffiction.com/articles/writing_basics/word_usage/
Also, as a new user, loving the site--I'll continue to use it for quite some time.

I am not sure if my writing under " Alphabet Soup - I" follows the site guidelines for pieces . Could you check it out? I just wanted to be sure before it could lead to getting banned and so i could change it if it needs to be changed thanks

Hi! I think a writing prompt about your make-believe pet would be fun.

Hey Doug,

Thanks for the great surprise. I never expected for that piece to be featured, especially so quickly. I'm beyond flattered. Thanks.

Write on.

Steve

Thanks for the tip. I have editted the spacing and a couple of minor punctuation errors. I'm glad you liked it.

Cheers,

Tom

heyy Douglas. I was wondering why there are famous writing quotes in the "rave reviews" section. a couple of my friends keep pointing them out and they're all paranoid (I just blew them off). So... why?
nice to meetcha

A query, if I may, regarding your "other" website: The Probem Site. Do you (I hope) keep a record of which Entrapment puzzle you posted on which date?

The reason I ask is that my fianceé, who plays your Daily Puzzles religiously, is driving me crazy. Those Entrapment Puzzles that she can't solve, she sends to me as a close-cropped PSP *.png and fully expects me to solve them. I've several which are still unsolved after two years of trying to solve them. She has the advantage of using your site on the date the puzzle was posted whilst I use Xandros Desktop 3.0
Deluxe which ran Firefox 1.0.5.0 and a version of Java so old that those who were children when it was released are considering having children of their own, now.

I hope you can assist me as I've only recently been able to install Windows XP Professional (cw SP3) but it's not exactly complete just yet.

Sincerely,
Kit Balmer, a.k.a., CdnGhost

Thanks for the posting titled "Impossible". I appreciatte your depth and sincerity. Your piece captures the essence of diciples in their Impossible that is transformed by the supernatural power of God for resurrection. thanks and happy Easter.

i want to be able to write in pentameter instead of free-style, but i dont know what a stressed syllable is, ( I was reading a messg u sent to somebody else) Is there an easy way to know how to tell whether the syllable is stressed or "had an accent?"

ummm.....for my past two posts, "Peace" and "What the Future Holds" it says that i wrote it in some thousand minutes, when in reality, it only took me like forty minutes (revising and all) oh, and how do you itiazise? I've seen you do it and others do it in their writing, but I dont know how to. Thanks! (I copy and paste, and it still doesnt work)
