Well, hopefully I would. 🙂 I like that the leave the ending open to interpretation though, even if its kind of maddening 😛 I’m surprised that she didn’t show him the tiger door and then throw herself in to die with him in some tragic Romeo and Juliet type thing.

Which I’m glad didn’t happen, just so you know.

Okay, I’ll look it…[Read more]

@seekjustice Which would you choose? 😛 It’s actually easy if you realize what true love is, right?  I mean, wouldn’t it obviously be better for him to live, even though married to someone else, than die a horrible death?  Sounds like she had a pretty selfish love if there was even a consideration of showing him the wrong door.  What do you th…[Read more]

@Rochellaine

I just love the whole idea of it. I’m currently reading the plot of the original short story 😛

Its funny because the sermon we were watching as I read the synopsis was about relationships between men and women, particularly dating, so it was very applicable 😀

@seekjustice Hm, I seem to recognize the name.  I think I may have heard of him before.  I’ll have to look him up.

And you should definitely look up Paul Washer.  He’s amazing, and very passionate.

Ah, haha!  I was thinking that would be the one you would like. 😛  I’m not sure which one I like best.  I just watched on YouTube the American Playh…[Read more]

@rochellaine

No I haven’t heard of him, this speaker is Louie Giglio from Passion Church in Atlanta. Have you heard of him?

I’m just looking at the synopsis. It looks pretty cool, especially the second story so far.

@seekjustice Cool!  Who’s the speaker?  My favorite is Paul Washer, but though he’s famous among us U.S. homeschoolers, I don’t think you’ve heard of him. 😛

Aaand, I probably haven’t heard of your speaker either, but…tell me anyway? 😉

@rochellaine

I’m awake and watching a sermon with mg parents.

No I haven’t. I’ll look it up.

@seekjustice Hey, are you still awake?  I’m here now. 🙂

The soundtrack I was listening to was from a musical called The Apple Tree.  Ever heard of it?

@valtmy

Never mind 🙂 People often point out my own misinterpretations of my own writing. At least you can be excused for mixing up minor details 😛

Well, originally he was there to get around the plot hole in Les Mis–the fact that no one recognised Javert until it was convenient, even though there were three people at least who should have…[Read more]

@valtmy

That’s good! I hope things make more sense in the second draft.

Well…that wasn’t Mathias who let them go. That was one of the wharf men.

Observe (that word makes me feel smart, you see):

Instead I met the eyes of a bearded man who looked even more startled than I did. His mouth was open, and he was staring down at Rain and I…

@rochellaine

Cool! I’ll see if I can get it to post now!

Ooh what soundtrack?

@seekjustice Oh, wow!!  Please send it over!  I don’t know how much I’ll read tonight, since I’ve got to get up around 5:30 tomorrow, but I might read it tomorrow in the car or something.  (My dad’s speaking at a church a few hours away, so we’ve got to leave by 6:30.)

I listened to a new soundtrack today… 😉

@valtmy @rochellaine

Sorry for the late reply, I was out all day yesterday and have only just got back from church now.

Basically, I fixed most of the things you pointed out Valtmy, in the second draft and I fixed it quite simply. Unfortunately though, I don’t know what to do with character of Mathias. :/

I agree with pretty much everything you…[Read more]

@rochellaine yeah that was Gideon that said that. 😀 that was funny!

@jenwriter17 Oh, I love Gideon too!!  He’s adorable.  So cute, especially when he…uh…every scene… 😛  But I love it when he dances with Milly in the “Goin’ Courtin'” scene.  And when he says “nice night for coon huntin'” as a “sweet thing.” 😛 (that was him, right?  It’s been a while.)

That actor is one of my favorite actors as well.  Funny…[Read more]

@valtmy Sorry, I went to sleep early last night, so I’m replying now. 🙂

Ah, haha.  Now that I put you through all the trouble of explaining I suddenly remembered that SeekJustice put a big backstory scene in with Maria in the second draft. 😛  I think she’s already thought through all those issues and will fix them as she finishes the second d…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 I rode English before I moved last year, but now I ride Western. It’s different. 😉 There were a lot of months in between moving and finding this place. I think I’m back though.
And we don’t just learn riding, we learn about the horses so that’s fun. (Since I hope to have a horse some day)

@catwing Glad it went well. Sorry about the sunburn and things though. 🙁

Do you ride western or english? I ride english, and jump some too. 🙂

@rochellaine Oh yes, I love his voice! I really like deep voices. 🙂

I really like “Bless Yore Beautiful Hide” too. Maybe that’s my favorite 😉

I also liked Gideon, forgot to mention him.

@jenwriter17 Oh, I do too!  Jane Powell, (Milly,) is one of my absolute favorite female singers.  Possibly my favorite, but I never can decide… 😛

My favorite song is probably “Bless Yore Beautiful Hide.”  (What do you think of Howard Keel’s voice?  It’s really deep and cool sounding, isn’t it?  Or do you prefer tenors?)  But all the songs are amazing.
