@catwing I can’t come on right now, but I’ll be here Monday. 🙂

www.jennaterese.com@jenwriter17 Okay.
Yeah. I can’t be on that late cause church tomorrow. 🙂IMMA KAPEEFER! Til we're old and gray!
Maybe I just like letters? I write a lot in real life.
I’ll have to think over all the stuff you’ve said, but I did just want to point out that he does move from the Capital to his current house. He grew up in the Capital and that’s where his business was. He moved to his cool garden after the financial crisis.

Ah, I thought that may have been the case. Guess it fits with the rest of the backstory.
But I suppose you’ll be working on NaNo instead of SFI now. 😛
I know. But I’m so easily distracted! And yes, I know you want to read Wattle Fire 😀
oh, and I liked what you said about the worldbuilding. That actually makes a lot of sense, because I’m not entirely sure why I find the worldbuilding for SFI so difficult, since I’ve found the worldbuilding for Wattle Fire, which has a lot more intense worldbuilding, quite easy.

Haha no pressure. As I said, I have no right to torment others so long as I am tormenting them with my slowness with QOD.
Right. It goes back to what (I think) I said before about whether you really want to market your book as a dystopic novel (though you can certainly set your story in a dystopic setting) because the term brings about a set of expectations I am not sure you really want to fulfill. As far as I can see, your concern is with developing characters, not to explore a society which is sort of the point of a dystopic novel.
I know, I seem to have worked myself into a tight genre spot. I can’t really think what I could market it as though. It doesn’t really fit anyway.
Oh well, I’ll see how it turns out after the third draft.

I thought you were going for ‘a modern retelling of Les Mis’? 😛
But, technically speaking, its hardly a contemporary… 😛

Why not? The retelling is modern (written in modern times) though the setting is not. 😛
I just looked up the genre conventions of dystopian fiction and my novel includes all of them, though they are pretty severely underdeveloped 😀

Good to know that my comments have some basis then 😀
@seekjustice I’ve been watching a YouTube video on the differences between American, British, and Australian English. 😀
The difference that really stuck out to me was that the Australian person in the video said you don’t have “Liquor stores” you have “bottle shops.” Is that true? And if so, how do you play the alphabet game????!!! 😛
(Yeah, our family likes to say, “the only thing liquor stores are good for is for the letter q.” 😉 and I think that’s a pretty common thing in America, to look for a liquor store when playing the alphabet game.)

@catwing I think I can be on for a bit, but I’m catching up on figuring out my blog post schedule.
Working on your nano novel, I presume? 😉
Oh, how are all your animals?
