@alia I’m making a blog list for my blog–something I’ve desperately been needing to do for about a month. Then, I’ll probably edit.

@notawriter I have been drawing since I could hold a pencil. 🙂  Oil painting scared me for a while, but now I am so loving it!  I can get it to do what I have always tried to get watercolor or acrylic to do.

Me and my sisters have fun looking at some of our old drawings and laughing at them.  There was one I drew years ago where I tried to pu…[Read more]

@alia Alright. You still there?

@clairec What color are your characters eyes?

@alia Lol! 🙂

@alia. I’m not sure.  Don’t you love that answer? 🙂

@alia. Ha, ha!  True. 😀

@alia Interesting.  We hope to do OYAN, so it will be neat to see how it is.

@alia I hope not.  Although we are moving, so I might happen.  🙂

@alia. Interesting.  I have been doing Cover Story.  You can write about whatever you want, just doing it within guideliness.  I enjoy it as a curriculum, because its much more freeing and helpful than anything else I know of.  Is OYAN not like that?  Or do you not like how its laid out?

@alia I hope it helps.  I want to try calligraphy too.  I got a set for my birthday but I haven’t done much with it yet.

Neat.  Do you like him?  @alia

@alia Ugh. I will be once I finish this math. 😉 It should be easy today though.

@alia. Your welcome.  I will. 🙂

@alia I doubt Daniel Schwabaur would agree with such a thing.  I bet he would say to describe the eyes.  He is the best writing teacher ever!  We use his writing curriculum, which has DVD lessons and a workbook, as well as a journal.  It would suprise me if he said that, though.  Ever heard of him?

@alia My Mom said that “Ken Brown Method of Calligraphy” is a really good one she learned from.

@alia Seriously, they say not to describe eyes?!!  Thats awful.  What better thing could you describe!?

@alia Calligraphy is definitely art!  As for where to learn…hmm.  To bad my Mom can’t give you lessons.  She is really good at calligraphy.  I will ask her what books she used.

@alia Yes!  And I love describing my characters eyes, because it can explain a lot.

@daeus. Thank you!
