        @jenwriter17 Hey!  I’m here now.  I’m not sure how long I can stay, but I might be on again later tonight too.

        How’s it going?  What are you working on at present?

          HI! 😀

          I’m doing well. And you? I’m working on a blog post and a little outlining for my superhero novel. I’ve figured out a good chunk of it, but I’m having to really work my brain muscles to figure out what happens between a certain two plot points. How about you?

          How are the horses? (you gotta know I was gonna ask that 😛 )

            @jenwriter17

            I’m doing great. 🙂

            Oh, it’s so painful when you know exactly what happens at two different points but can’t figure out how to get from one to the other, isn’t it? 😛

            I’m looking at a short story I wrote a while ago and trying to figure out how to expand it into a short novel…that’s not going overly well. 😉

            The horses are doing really well!  They started gaining weight too fast once spring hit us and their pasture is huge, so we had to get them muzzles.  We had a riding instructor come a few days ago to tell us how to retrain the paint, and now a few of my siblings have had a chance to ride her.  The instructor said we would need a more experienced trainer to help with the thoroughbred, and she recommended someone, so we’ll probably be having him come help us with the thoroughbred soon.

              @rochellaine

              *groans* yes, it is.

              I find it hard to expand shorter stories into longer ones. How do you go about doing that?

              That’s awesome that the paint is making progress. 😀 I hope the thoroughbred will too once that trainer works with him.

                Well, I’ve done it before, but it was five or six years ago.  I expanded a story that was about ten or twenty pages long into a 100 page short book.  That’s what I want to do with this one.  I’m trying to remember what I did, and I’m not sure exactly.  I’m going to look through that book and see if I can get any ideas.

                I think the best way will probably be to add more character depth and a subplot or something.  But if I’m going to add a subplot, I first have to figure out what subplot to add. 😛

                  @rochellaine

                  Okay, well I hope the story-expanding works out! 😉

                  I have to leave now (I don’t think I’ll be on later). Nice talking with you!

                            Hey, y’all! How are you doing? I’m here mostly to hang out. 😛

                              It’s going very slowly. 🙂

                                @rochellaine  I’m okay.

                                (Shoot, I came to talk but don’t know what to say now. . .)

                                  @dekreel I’m doing pretty well today.
                                  I’m doing more art now. I drew some fanart today for a book I recently read, “If This Were a Story” Have you read that book?

                                  It’s an interview with Mr. McGrove the librarian. 🙂

                                  Same.
