I like number three. And “yay” you remembered the E. 😀

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Rapunzel's Hair in the forum Fantasy 10 years, 8 months ago
Hm… has your Rapunzel character been shut up in this tower all her life? She might not even know what scissors are. She might think her hair is an absolutely essential part of her— maybe she thinks cutting it off would kill her. (Thank goodness that’s not true 😛 )
And I don’t imagine she has much else to do in that tower, so taking care of…[Read more] -

Oooh… oh yes @Daeus, that could totally work with Denholm! Oh boy… I may have to try that. 😛 He’s a really… intellectually geeky sort of guy, for the lack of a better word. He likes using really deep, obscure concepts to bewilder other people just for fun.

Rosey Mucklestone replied to the topic Another Cobalt Scene in the forum Novel Critique Requests 10 years, 8 months ago
@daeus Yeah, I was thinking about deleting that. I was mostly following Cobalt’s thought process and he would have worked the whole hobo thing for sympathy, so that’s why it’s there in the first place. But not everyone follows that sort of train of thought. 😛
@kate-flournoy No problem at all. 🙂 I totally get the whole big family busy-ness thing. 😛

Rosey Mucklestone replied to the topic Escape scene critique in the forum Novel Critique Requests 10 years, 8 months ago
Haha, nice! XD Neither of those seems like things too far off Cobalt’s option list. 😛

I’m rewriting a fairy tale about Rapunzel and am trying to figure out her hair. I don’t have to have my retelling exactly like the original story, of course, and I fully intend to change some things and add twists of my own. However, I need to figure out something with Rapunzel’s hair, or to stand in for it. It’s unnatural for hair to grow as long…[Read more]

You know what @writefury, I would absolutely love that, but I can’t say I’ll have the time. :/
Let me know when you’ve finished it, and I’ll see if I can fit it in with my schedule.
Winter is usually an incredibly busy time for us as a family, what with plowing the steep driveway and ferrying our cabin guests up and down in our 4wheel drive.…[Read more] -
Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Escape scene critique in the forum Novel Critique Requests 10 years, 8 months ago
Hm… well @writefury, he would probably begin by telling whoever asked everything that his name was not. 😛 From there he would probably devolve into some convoluted explanation of why his name wasn’t important and how there are other things to worry about, and wind up with some completely random thought that would leave the questioner in such a…[Read more]

Does anyone know of any good Christian Writer Conferences? I’d love to go to a Writers’ conference or retreat sometime but am not sure where to start looking.

You’re welcome! 🙂 Glad you enjoyed it.
Just wondering, would you like to beta-read when I’m through combing out the end? -
Rosey Mucklestone replied to the topic Escape scene critique in the forum Novel Critique Requests 10 years, 8 months ago
Love it, @kate-flournoy! XD It is fun seeing how they’d approach different situations. Let’s see… what would Denholm do if he’s a wanted man by his given name and someone asks his name? (Cobalt pulled on a Scottish accent and said his name was Angus McCampbell.)

BlueJay replied to the topic An Author's Advice in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years, 8 months ago
I would ask my favourite author “how does she come up with such exciting and wonderful ideas to write about?”

Hope Ann replied to the topic Series Title in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 10 years, 8 months ago
I like Sagas of Light and Epics of Light, but I’m afraid my novellas aren’t really long enough to qualify…
I might just stick with Legends of Light because that’s stayed my favorite so far.

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Escape scene critique in the forum Novel Critique Requests 10 years, 8 months ago
You know this is really funny, @writefury, but because your Cobalt and my Denholm are similar personalities I find myself comparing how one would act in a certain situation to how the other would act. I’m beginning to find distinctions— Denholm in this situation would probably not have tried the whiny approach (I absolutely love the way Cobalt…[Read more]

Haaaaaaaaaa… that’s good. I like that. And I think I know what he looks like now, though I’m guessing he’s generally not quite that ragged. 😉 Thanks so much @writefury!

Here you go, @kate-flournoy. 😉 The self playing piano scene directly before my other one.
“I was only out for like two minutes,” Cobalt scratched at his hair underneath the edge of his hat, “It’s not like I’m dying.”
“Still, some food would be good,” the driver pulled up to the rickety looking old restaurant in the middle of town. “Besid…[Read more] -

Tales of Light
Sagas of Light
Yarns of Light
Memoirs of Light
Epics of Light
Narrations of LIghtYeah, don’t take me to seriously here. 😛 Though the first one wasn’t bad….
