Welcome to TNBW, Iris! I know it can be scary to put yourself out there, but it is a rush of sorts - with a hint of dread too - but I encourage you to do it anyway I hope you like it here!

Re: Strongest Start Competition 2016 (19 replies, posted in TheNextBigWriter Premium)
Hi Sol - I've gotten some good feedback, and I want to update my 1st draft of my contest entry. This may be a silly question - but can I edit my existing entry without spending more points or jeopardizing my entry status? I've never actually attempted it so I'm a bit hesitant. Thanks in any case!

Re: Strongest Start Competition 2016 (19 replies, posted in TheNextBigWriter Premium)
I'm excited for the contest! This is probably a silly question but does this contest allow for multiple entries or just one this time, so as to not overtax our illustrious judges? Thanks in any case, Sol!

Re: Cat screaming. (36 replies, posted in TheNextBigWriter Premium)
Hi njc - Not sure if this helps with the "cat screaming", but if you haven't tried this site it might be a good resource: http://worldbuilding.stackexchange.com/

Re: Cat screaming. (36 replies, posted in TheNextBigWriter Premium)
Agreed, NJC, I also have built my vocabulary the same way. Reading Stephen King, for instance, sent me to the dictionary more than once but I'm grateful for it.
As for cats - hmm, I bet if you look up "Cats Having Sex", you will get an idea of how they would scream. You don't have to watch, just listen - it might give you the effect you're looking for in your writing. Good luck!

Re: Word processor compatibility with foreign language characters? (12 replies, posted in TheNextBigWriter Premium)
I haven't run into the foreign language characters, but if I wanted to use WingDing symbols for chapter breaks then I also ran into the incompatibility with the inline WP.
I like OpenOffice for my word processor. It also allows me to Export as PDF. Would there be any issues with just allowing us to submit our writing as PDFs?
