@ariel-ashira Sorry, bad choice of words.  Thanks for correcting me on that.  It was meant to be a joke, of course, and mean something completely different than the way you read it, but I can see how it could be taken in a wrong way.  Of course elderly people are just as important as younger people.

@rochellaine

No, you haven’t lost your reputation entirely, in fact, it seems like your character could be labelled “subplot” instead of character, so we’ll let it slide. Just pretend it never happened 🙂

(By the way, believe this or not, there are actually good authors in the world who don’t kill their characters. Like….well, er…you…[Read more]

@seekjustice Oh, yes.  I see that was a useless argument.  But you see, I’m desperate.  I’m so ashamed of myself for killing a character that I can’t think straight enough to find any good arguments.

If only it had been a good death scene, with an important character who caused great mourning when he died, and who the readers would weep over – li…[Read more]

@rochellaine *gapes* Alright, it’s okay.  I’m glad you told us.  But your young heroes will die one day to, so you shouldn’t talk about old people like they are of less value.  (This was probably not your intended meaning, but it could come across that way.)

@rochellaine

Well, Jonas and Rain and Waif and that-other-guy-who’s-name-I-won’t-mention-because-Alia-might-be-reading-this all would have died too, eventually. This does not excuse you.

(Its sort of painful though, especially when its really cold and you already have a cough)

@seekjustice *hangs head* I-I’m sorry!!  I honestly don’t know how it was possible that I forgot about him.  But…he needed to die, and I think letting him die was the nicest thing I could have done for him.  If he had lived he would have been the subject of great persecution, according to my understanding of the situation.  And, he was in his…[Read more]

*stares in shocked silence*

TRAITOR!!!

That poor man! I’m sure he didn’t deserve it. How could you be so cruel?

All right, I’ll forgive you this time.

😛

(I actually laughed so hard when I read your post. Silently, of course, so I don’t wake up my siblings :D)

People of Kingdom Pen, I have a confession to make.  I have just realized that I have led you to believe something false.  I don’t understand quite how it happened, but I am glad I found it out and am able to rectify my mistake…

Now before I freak you out any more, 😛 don’t worry.  It’s just that I just realized I have actually killed a ch…[Read more]

@alia @rochellaine @jenwriter17 @seekjustice @dekreel I would love to chat if any of you are on.

@seekjustice @rochellaine @alia I’m so sorry, I should’ve explained that I had just come to answers Rochellaine’s question last night; I wasn’t writing at the time. Sorry!

I’ll be on today at some point though.

@leumeister

Ooh.

My character would probably all rather die, but @rochellaine would like Zac to live forever, even if it was just in a simulation, wouldn’t you, Rochellaine?

@rochellaine

Goodnight 😀 Yes, I really like it too. I think the musical takes place in 1927. Her hair is very pretty! I like the style its up in too.

@seekjustice Wow, that’s very pretty!  And yes, it looks pretty accurate.  The belt could be worn a little lower, but it’s fine where it is.  I can’t see the hemline, so I can’t tell about that, but the top looks great.  I’d also need to know what year or years specifically if I were to check the hemline, as you can see from the chart I showed Val…[Read more]

@rochellaine

In the musical. This one, though I can’t find a picture of the full thing

@valtmy Wow, that was very interesting.  Thanks for introducing me to it!

@ariel-ashira It would seem so.  Probably not the best idea…for me at least. 😛  @seekjustice of course won’t be going to bed for several more hours, and I think it’s daytime where Valtmy lives too, isn’t it?

@rochellaine @seekjustice @valtmy You guys still up?  My Dad and I found a place to stop for the night.  We are in Wyoming.  I have been reading your posts, but not saying much because it takes an ice age to type on tablets.  Goodnight!

@seekjustice Do you mean the movie or the musical?  I haven’t seen either, but I’ve seen clips of the movie.  I can’t find pictures of the costumes worn in the musical, and if it’s in the movie I’m not sure what dress you’re talking about.  Do you have a picture?

@Rochellaine

I can’t even imagine wearing something like the things they wore 🙂

Thanks!

Oh, do you know the costume Anya wears in Paris in Anastasia? The white one? I quite like that, but you’d have to tell me whether its historically accurate 1920s costume.

@valtmy I’ve not heard of it. 😮  I know mostly American and a lot of British and a very little European history. 😛  That sounds really cool, though!  I’ll have to look it up, or can you tell me more about it?

Well, but of course there were flappers!  There were a lot of flappers.  It’s just that the 20s are portrayed as though every single pers…[Read more]

@seekjustice Haha, yes, Gibson Girl fashion is a bit extreme.  I much prefer the more sensible WWI era fashion.  However, I do enjoy the Gibson Girl cartoons when I can find them.  They’re very amusing.

Oh, that collage is sweet. 🙂

@valtmy No, no.  I do not like the modern trend of YA fiction where the teenager saves the world just because he…[Read more]
