So I'm writing a book. It'll probably turn into a series. The title is Flame and it is fantasy. All the adults that I have talked to said it's well written, and looks very good. ((Even the ones who can't lie for their lives)) So, I'll tell you more about it as I get farther along. Right now, I only have about 30 typed pages, 12 phont.

Well Fletcher I would first like to Welcome you to Silverpen, and second of all I would like to enquire as to how you found the forum?
Maybe you could post a synopsis so we can get a feel for what the story is about?

I can get a code for you that renaims karma, and you can call it story points or something. What is your book titled?
Flame Is about a young girl, who is picked up for petty theift by the gaurd. She is stuck in prison for two nights and a day, along with a young boy by the name of Lizard. Early the next morning, a mage comes, and removes them from prison, brining them to Eagleheart, a school of magic.
There, Ember (The girl) and Lizard discover their magic, and the great dragon, Elsapher. After many moons, Ember and Lizard take up a journey to find Ember's mother.
Can I have a synopsis of your story? **Oh yeah, I'm gonna kill off Lizard, but just remember, this book is the first in a series...**

Sounds very intresting but maybe u should add a twist like ember doesnt know who the mage is and Eagleheart is a school, for rogue magicians, trying to bring down the evil dictatership which rules their land. Sound better? Its just an example but the story sounds too straight forward.
I'll work on synopsis of mine later today. and if you could get me that code or the url to the code that would be great.

No, actually it doesn's sound better. With the word 'synopsis' fresh in mind, I remind you that it is a short story of a long story. There are so many twists in my story, that my kitten has scant hairs compared to them. The code is here, goes in the global footer.
<script type="text/javascript"> <!-- /* change "karma" words by california */
var karmaReplace="Story Points~" var exaltReplace="Admire"; var smiteReplace="Critique";
var td=document.getElementsByTagName("td"); if(location.href.match(/action=(display|goto|viewprofile|search2|recent|pmview)/)){ for(i=0;i<td.length;i++){ if(td.width=="20%" && td.className.match(/windowbg/) && td.innerHTML.match(/Karma:/i)){ var tempA=td.innerHTML.replace('Karma:',karmaReplace+':'); var tempB=tempA.replace('Exalt',exaltReplace); var tempC=tempB.replace('Smite',smiteReplace); td.innerHTML=tempC; } } } // --> </script>

Ember watched her mother from behind bolts of cloth. She was four again, and it was close to Longnight. Her mother looked around uneasily, then snatched a polished blue stone off a stall in the bazaar. Why did she do that? Ember somehow knew that they were in the most heavily guarded section of the bazaar, where magical and valuable wares where sold. The owner of the stall stormed over followed by two guards. “Likin’ my wares miss, eh?” he asked in a voice that was only half calm.
“I was merely browsing for a Longnight gift for my daughter!” Ember’s mother cried. Ember could tell it was a downright lie. One of the guards laughed. ”That may be true, but were you plannin’ on payin’ for that ‘gift’ of yours for that ‘daughter’ of yours?” The second guard grabbed her arm and dragged her off. “Apologies, sir, we should ‘ave been payin’ more attention, sir,” the first guard said to the owner.The owner nodded, looking down his nose arrogantly. Pitiful, Ember thought, he wasn’t watching his wares and he gets away without losing anything! The first guard started to follow his partner, when the owner shouted, ”WAIT! My..my..stone!” The second guard looked at his partner, who nodded. The first guard wrenched the stone out of Ember’s mother’s hand and tossed it at the shopkeeper’s feet. Ember willed one of the unlit candles on the shopkeeper’s stall to light, which, amazingly, it did. The shopkeeper yelped and hurried to the well a few paces away with his bucket. Ember took this one moment of confusion to filch a shiny black stone and run off toward the abandoned building that her mother and she lived in. Ember shook her head to clear the memory, and sighed. It was that very same shiny black stone that had gotten her in to trouble nine years later. She was now thirteen.
