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!

@jenwriter17

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…[Read more]

@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.

@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…[Read more]

@rochellaine

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 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?

@rochellaine

I’ll actually be on now for a bit. 🙂

I miss hanging out here!!! 🙁

I should be free in about an hour.  Is anyone interested in chatting/writing/word-warring around then?

@rochellaine @seekjustice @alia @dekreel @valtmy @jenwriter17 I’ll be on for a while tonight. Anyone else up?

@valtmy

You could definitely do a bus tour. There’s a lot of those around.

I think the weather has more to do with the certain area I live in. Camberra area is pretty extreme. The rest of Australia is much more comfortable. But for the lower areas, Tasmania and Victoria, summer is definitely best. Further up, Queensland and Northern territory…[Read more]

@valtmy

I would definitely recommend self-driving, though the train system (for travelling long distance) is pretty good. But it depends on whether you want to do a lot of sightseeing or just as a practical means of transport.

@valtmy  I’m still young enough to be under parental authority, and I don’t know if my parents would let me go out and meet a bunch of random online “strangers”. We don’t have the money anyway. I’m crossing my fingers for when I’m free! XD

@valtmy

I have traveled eastern and central Australia quite extensively though I’ve only been to Melbourne once. But since travelling is probably my next favourite passion to writing, I’m always open to do it again 😛

@valtmy  What country do you live in?

I hope a KP meetup can happen some day!

@valtmy

You should definitely come to Australia

*nods*

@valtmy Australia seems like it’s be a nice vacation place… Except for all the dangerous animals… 😬
Maybe you’ll voyage to America one day. 🙂
Did you want to tag all the Aussies?

@jbb I’ll definitely be praying too.

@valtmy

Well, maybe America some day. 😉 It seems like Australia is a really nice place to visit. 🙂

@jbb Im praying too!

@rochellaine To help keep the goats in and for if I get a horse. The goats have escaped a few times from their electric fence enclosure that we move around.
They’re Nubian and Nigerian dwarf mix.

It isn’t exactly… You can dress up during the whole thing I think, but most people just dress up for the awards banquet(but you don’t have to dress…[Read more]
