@seekjustice It’s okay.  I was only here for a few minutes anyway and then I left.  I’m back now, though.  How are you doing?  Oh yeah, I already asked that…Okay, what are you working on? 😛

@valtmy Ah, that makes sense.  Yes, half of my problem was that she was doing it in public.  Like I said, if she’d taken the other girl aside and said…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Sorry, I got distracted 😉 I’m back now!

@valtmy

Hello!

@rochellaine

Yep. It was funny but I agree that it’s a little too mean (even given the sort of person my MC’s brother is) and my MC should be trying to come across as a proper lady at that moment so insulting a family member like that does not fit with the image.

@valtmy Haha, I was on your document right before you got here, and replied to one of your comments. 😉

Well, that will make me happier. 😀  Weren’t there other readers who liked that part, though?

@seekjustice @rochellaine

I’ll be here before work.

Rochellaine, thanks for your comments in my doc. I’ve replied so you can go take a look. I’ve decided to remove that part with my MC’s brother. The whole issue with that is that my MC and her brother are really, really not supposed to be looked up to by the readers anyway so I thought that that…[Read more]

@seekjustice Hello!  I’m here for a little bit before people start arriving for my dad’s seminar.  I have to sing while they’re coming in. 😉

Then I’ll be here for an hour or so during the seminar.

I’m glad you’re feeling better!  What are you working on this morning?

@rochellaine

Cool 🙂

I feel better, not 100% but better.

@seekjustice I’m not around yet, but I will be in a little bit.

How are you feeling?  Any better?

@valtmy @dekreel @jenwriter17 @rochellaine @alia @catwing

Anyone around?

@dekreel @valtmy Well, I’m going to say goodnight now.  See you later!

@valtmy Well, I think it could be both.  I did notice a distinct similarity, but since I didn’t realize you were the author of the other, I wasn’t sure why. 😛  It’s also partially because I haven’t read many stories set in East Asia, so I related the stories in that aspect as well. 😉

@dekreel Since people were getting confused as to whether we were serious about being angry that people left us for Story Embers I have tried to stay away from discussions of the positions in the Kingdom of Pen or SE.  We were only joking, but apparently it went a bit too far, and I don’t want people to misunderstand.  That’s why I changed my s…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Haha does that mean I have a distinctive writing style? Or that my stories are too similar in inspiration and tone?

I think QOD and ROF will end being similar in tone but the stories will be very different. QOD features a female MC who loves romance and whose story is more of one of drama and personal growth. ROF will feature a male…[Read more]

@rochellaine  Hopefully inspiration will kick in soon…

Can you remind me one more time about all the positions on the Kingdom now? I know SeekJustice is the queen… Or something.

@dekreel Don’t worry about it.  Response time isn’t important. 😉

Another KPA would be so much fun!!

@rochellaine  (Sorry it took so long to respond. I’m a little distracted.)

Fair enough…

Do you think I should write another KPA? A shorter one? XD

@valtmy Haha, apparently I’m having the same trouble with Daughter of Judas. 😛  Trying to keep the customs and culture of the times, while making it not confusing and freaky to a modern audience is certainly difficult.

Well, of course. 😛  And no, you haven’t been portraying it as a positive thing, but you have been portraying it as sort of t…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Oh. My other question had to do with the “When she did” line which you apparently have no idea how to rephrase too. 😛

For my MC’s age… I don’t think I am going to change it. But I think I would insert a line somewhere saying that the actual marriage is not going to take place until years later (sigh, catering to the delicate…[Read more]

@valtmy That’s what happened to my western, unfortunately. 🙁  I definitely haven’t quit it, but I had to take a break because I wasn’t getting anywhere with it.

Ok, I went back and replied to your age question.  I didn’t see what other questions you had asked, though.  What were they?

@seekjustice Are you back from church yet?  What do you thi…[Read more]
