Jenna Terese replied to the topic I Need Help with My American Character in the forum Characters 8 years, 4 months ago
I just watched an Andy Griffith show episode that reminded me of when Rochellaine told you that we say ‘big’ a lot here in America. 😉 I would post the link, but I couldn’t find it. 🙁 if you are able to find it, it’s season 1 episode 2 I believe. In the first scene as well. 😀

@sarah-anson Wow, thank you for all the advice! 😉 It was really helpful. I agree about the ending; it didn’t turn out the way I wanted to and felt rushed. I’ll work on Rin’s character arc about trusting God as well.
Thank you again! 😀 <3

@skredder Awesome 🙂
So, I have a question: I’ll be going on a trip leaving this Saturday, so I was wondering if you might wanna post all your parts now, so that I can print them off for the trip and get a lot more reading done? That’s fine if you don’t want to do it that way, but I’m not sure how the internet or whatever is going to be where I’m…[Read more]

@seekjustice Okay, see you later.
Um…it is late, but for some reason I’m not sleepy. 😉 I should probably try to go to sleep anyway.
Rabbit trail question: have you ever heard an actual broken record? I have! 😀 I have a record player and a lot of albums as well as a few 45s. Thankfully most of them are not scratched, but one is an old ‘6…[Read more]

Well, I’ve been on the computer all day and my eyes are sore, and I need to do some chores, so I’m leaving now. Also, at the risk of sounding like a broken record, is it not late in Maryland??

@seekjustice @rochellaine Yes, knitting needles! (I’ve got plenty 😛 ) Someone seriously should make a logo with knitting needles saying ‘Til we’re old and grey!’ on it. *seriously considers doing just that*

Awesome! And no worries, I really liked it. Thanks for letting me read! (now to finish Skredder’s!)

@seekjustice thank you for answering! 😀 I actually decided to make this just part 1 of a 2 part book (i think) because I felt the same about the ending. Thanks again for reading! <3

@jenwriter17 @alia @seekjustice @rochellaine Anyone on? I might have to leave anytime if my sister needs on.

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #17 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 4 months ago
Well, I did. But Oliver Twist is not his greatest work, let’s just say that.
That quote though! I’ve done similar things before. Almost poked people’s eyes out with knitting needles. Almost stabbed myself with my own pocket knife this morning!

@skredder Usually the libretto is translated in the programs or on a screen so people can read the lyrics in English. If you like opera music, but don’t like bad plots, look up Gilbert and Sullivan’s operettas. They’re really good, and they’re in English! 🙂
@seekjustice Poor you. But then, I never trusted Dickens anyway. 😛
Yes! Kni…[Read more]

1. Who was your favorite character and why?
Uma. I just loved her innocence combined with her…uh…robotness. I did feel that you could have done heaps more with her than you did, like explaining more about why she was created, what her programming is like, developing her character a bit more. But yeah, she was my favour…[Read more]

@rochellaine haha, I just got a picture in my mind of us two old grey-haired ladies hunched over our laptops chatting in the writers’ corner 😀 Yes, ’til we’re old and grey!!!

Well, I didn’t really like Oliver Twist, the book either, which I just finished so…I don’t know, I feel like Dickens betrayed me.
There’s a super thin plot dealing with the “nine lives of cats” sort of thing, but that’s literally it. Who cares if it has a plot. Good dancing 😛
My mum was learning Italian in uni and she…[Read more]

Hahaha! That’s why I’m not sure if I’ll like it. I like a musical to have a few songs here and there, and a lot of dialogue. I do like operas, but I prefer musicals to be completely di…[Read more]
