Hello! I’m kind of just hanging around on the internet at the moment, but I really need to do some more characterisation!
INFP Queen of the Kingdom commander of an army of origami cranes and a sabre from Babylon.
@seekjustice Okay, I’m (kinda) working on my Western again.
I read your article and liked it. 🙂
I have to ask…Is that Grant Gustin (the Flash) on your profile page?
"Sylvester - Sylvester!"
@rochellaine Hello, I’m stalking you! you better be working on your western!
The Kingdom has been torn asunder...
http://www.encircledbygrace.com/Cool! I haven’t read the full excerpt yet, but I mean too!
The Jane Austen one? Thank you!
Um…haha, yes it is. I’d forgotten that was there. it was a collage for a story I wrote about a year ago, and it used to be super hard to post collages on here. Instead of turning up on the forum thread, it ended up as my background, so I left it. I hadn’t remembered that it was still there though!

@kaya-young 😀 Okay…I’m doing my best.
"Sylvester - Sylvester!"
@rochellaine Good! I need to know what happens next!
The Kingdom has been torn asunder...
http://www.encircledbygrace.com/@seekjustice Yes, just the Jane Austen post. I haven’t had time to read anything else yet…
Ha! I’m so proud of myself for recognizing his chin! 😀 I like being able to do things like that.
You’re doing characterization…I was just talking with @kaya-young about basing my characters off of real people. Do you ever do that? (Despite the disclaimers that we’re supposed to put in the beginning of every book: “Not based on any person, living or dead, etc.”)
"Sylvester - Sylvester!"
fair enough! I’m glad you liked it!
😀 I like recognising actors too, it makes me feel like a real teenager. Unfortunately the actors I like aren’t very well-known, so it kind of spoils it, but oh well!
Those disclaimers make me laugh when they’re in the front of historical books with real people in them 😀
I think that I do do it, but it’s not usually that I choose someone and go, hey, I’m going to make you a character! It’s more that after writing a character chart or a scene, I’ll realise that they’re kind of like so-and-so.

@kaya-young So far what happens next is Uncle Bill takes Chara hiking. 🙂
Does that satisfy your need?
"Sylvester - Sylvester!"
@seekjustice @rochellaine *shamelessly butts in*
‘EYA! I shall join you on this fair night! (Er… or afternoon…….)
I’m working on the KPA — finally making progress!
What have you been talking about?
You can pronounce it however you want.
Yay! I’m glad!! I’m currently doing some characterisations for my novel and scanning pinterest for good models (it’s super hard to find thirty-year-old women on Pinterest!)
We’ve been discussing basing characters off real people and Jane Austen,
Oh and recognising actors by their chins….

Aha! you’re a secret stalker. No worries, I do that too! Now you know that the enigmatic SeekJustice is actually Chelsea from An Ordinary Pen

@seekjustice You do realize that could mean you are basing a character off of Jane Austen? 🙂
Same!! About the actors, I mean. I really know the names of about five modern actors. But I like watching old 50s tv shows and saying, “Oh, I recognize that guest star. He played the soda jerk in such-and-such movie!” 🙂 I think that actually makes me even less like a modern teenager though? Oh well.
@dekreel It actually is midnight where I live, so the original quote works for me!"Sylvester - Sylvester!"
@seekjustice “Recognizing actors by their chins?!” XD Sounds like a great conversation
I’ll bet it’s hard 8|
Is it the novel based on a Dickens book?
You can pronounce it however you want.
