Have you never sobbed uncontrollably from laughter? Though I guess sobbing has generally sorrowful connotations. 😛
I am here (whilst wrestling with the beast known as mathematics). Sorry I didn’t get your message till just now.

August 15, 2018 at 1:58 am #76156@seekjustice Haha, I don’t think so. 😛
Hi!! Finally a direct conversation between us! I wonder how long it has been? Anyway, I won’t be on for much longer, but I’m not quite done yet so, I am still here at present.
Ah, sorry. 😉 I’ll ask you the question I ask everyone: Do you prefer decimals or fractions? I adore fractions and abhor decimals, but most people I talk to say the opposite.
I saw that you were having problems with your editing process again? I’m not sure, because I didn’t see the whole conversation. But what was it that you were working on?

August 15, 2018 at 2:07 am #76157Hysterical laughter and hysterical sobbing aren’t that different. Tears, hiccuping, general chaos. I stand by my proclamation.
Some time 😛 How much longer does your conference last?
Can I say neither? But currently I get the best of both worlds because I’m working out decimals with a remainder in fractions. I think I generally find fractions easier to conceptionalise than decimals.
That was the outline for the third book I was moaning about earlier 😛

August 15, 2018 at 2:18 am #76158@seekjustice “Tears, hiccuping, general chaos…” perfect description. I find myself agreeing, at this point. 😛
So, I guess that means I do okay? Well, with my comic short stories and poems, at least. 😉 I do hope to write a good sad scene sometime, though. But, like you said, you’d probably faint from shock if I ever did such a thing… 😛
I’ll be going home Friday, but I think the next couple of days are pretty busy at home, as well. Hopefully next week I’ll get back into writing.
Ah, haha. 😀 Yeah, I absolutely loved fractions, but I get that some people just don’t like math at all. (I don’t generally. Just fractions. 😉 )
I see. I’m certainly looking forward to reading that, as I’m sure you know. No pressure there. None at all. 😉 (But seriously, not every book has to be outlined and written as quickly as your first two. It’s okay if you take a bit longer on this one.)

August 15, 2018 at 2:30 am #76159I’m glad ( I also saved myself an embarrassing situation 😛 ). I think you do find. I guess not evey writer needs to make people weep.
I just find math extremely frustrating. Especially when I can’t see the point to what I’m doing. Will I ever use this? Not unless I want to be an astrophysicist. Then why am I doing it?
It actually took me a really long time to outline and plan the first book, but I’m just having trouble with this one because I can’t even get the main plot points to go together, so I can’t even properly begin outlining.

August 15, 2018 at 2:39 am #76160Yes, but there are other jobs where it is used, such as engineering or accounting. However, I doubt I’ll use more than basic arithmetic, and my chemistry knowledge is confined to baking. 😉
I see. Well, I certainly can’t help you there, since I have no idea what the “main plot points” even are supposed to be. 😛
I need to get some sleep now. Hope to talk to you again soon!

August 15, 2018 at 2:46 am #76161I know that 😛 I was just exaggerating. I’m prone to that sort of thing.
I’m sure I’ll get there eventually!
Bye 🙂

August 15, 2018 at 10:29 pm #76162@seekjustice You around?
"Sylvester - Sylvester!"
August 15, 2018 at 11:00 pm #76163@Seekjustice @rochellaine The tears, the heart ache, the hurt, the angry letters, the fan mail, and the joy of the readers, etc. etc. 🙂 We make them sob for joy and hurt.
THE EVIL WRITER HAS BEEN NAMED AFTER YOU! 😛
(I figured. 😉 )
Wow. Glad to help!

@alia If you’re still around, I’ll write for a while. I haven’t been on KP for a while, but I figured I’d drop by today 🙂

@alia In general? Or writing-wise?
