Making sure the characters are making motivated choices is a big part of making the story seem real and believable. Do the characters choices in the chapter you read make sense for their character and situation? How does that impact the story?

Like your partner's story or the feedback they gave you? Why not become permanent pairs? You can grow as readers and writers together and share feedback each bloom. When it's time for the bloom each week, you can be paired with this same person. To do this, ask them if they are interested. If they are, PM the account and let us know you're both interested.

Pairing #1

- The Writer (CHECK)

- Wacky Short Stories

🌻 🌻

This is where Sunflower members (both Standard Sunflowers and Advanced Sunflowers), who are not on extension, hiatus, in a permanent pair and have completed all previous assignments go. Please note you only have to read two chapters of the story you are assigned and comment on both. If you are in a pairing of 3, you only have to read ONE chapter of each book you're paired with (two total). Comment "done" here along with the chapters you read once you're done. Failure to do so might result in a strike. If you are with someone whose title says "Reader Only," they read two chapters of your book, but you don't have any to read of theirs in return. Please still comment "done reader only" once you've seen that you're with a reader only.

🌻 🌻

Standard Sunflowers are expected to leave at least seven in-line comments and a final comment (1-2 sentences long) or one 5+ line final comment in their partner's book. If you are a Standard Sunflower, you will only be paired with other Standard Sunflowers. If you've been in the club for more than three weeks already, and you're interested to be an Advanced Sunflower, please PM the account. For newer members who haven't been here that long and wish to be moved to the Advanced Sunflowers, your feedback on your weekly assignments will be evaluated for three consecutive weeks before we decide on it.

Advanced Sunflowers are expected to leave detailed comments on their partner's books. A detailed, 7+ lined final comment is mandatory, along with multiple in-line comments. If you are an Advanced Sunflower, you will only be paired with other Advanced Sunflowers. Keep in mind that in three person pairings, you have to read one chapter from each partner's book -- a total of two. If you wish to be moved to the Standard Sunflowers, please PM the account.

No Advanced Sunflowers this week.
