@clairec I get an email announcing that you mentioned me along with several loud, annoyed remarks, so, confused, I come over here and find a half page of you trying to spell my name.  😀  Sorry it caused you so much trouble! 🙂  I assume you were originally trying to comment about the Stolen Raspberries comic?

@dekreel That is really weird.  🙂 …[Read more]

@notawriter  I still got a notification when you tagged me.  It just didn’t go green for some reason.  🙂

wat *is confused*

whoops messed up the tag @ingridrd

@ingidrd Yeah man! Noses are hard. *nods*
Thankyou! You’re a sweetie. 😀

@jenwriter17 Yay! I’m glad you like it 🙂

That’s Stella haha. (Not the name I would have chosen now, but 7 year old me thought it was majestic.) Shes a cutie pie, but a bit spoiled.

@dragon-snapper That’s fine. 🙂

To clarify though, it doesn’t have to be an author you know. It could just be one you read.

@daeus Yeah….. no.

I don’t really know that many authors. Haven’t been to any conferences really–one local teen one–but otherwise… not yet. XD I’ll let you know if I can think of any.

@notawriter *squeals* it looks so good! I like how you did the hair too, it’s flowy and soft looking. I think the expression suits her. It’s not a full out smile, which she doesn’t do often. Thank youuuuu! ❤

ooh, cat! He/she is sooo cute!!!

Alright, KeePers, Josiah recommended I contact some published authors about this survey. I’m going to ask if they want to see the results when they come out and maybe if they want to share it with their audience too.

I’ve got a few authors in mind, but I don’t know a tone of authors. Any you can think of who might be interested in…[Read more]

@dekreel @notawriter Cool! thanks!

@princessfoo Thanks so much for your input! No, Rin doesn’t fall in love with the soldier guy (his name is Jax). I’d rather not include romance in my novels. They become friends though. Just friends 😊

Oooh  I just looked more closely at the second picture.  Kiiiitttttyyyy!  What’s his/her name?

@notawriter  I totally feel you on drawing the mouth ten times…except it’s usually noses with me.  🙂

Awww you’re so sweet!  But you are too modest.  You’re drawing is brilliant!  I love the sprigs of greenery.  🙂 🙂 🙂

@jenwriter17 It sounds neat! I would read it. *nods*

@ingridrd Cool drawing! 😀 Good job. I think you captured Rin’s character a little better then I. haha. *thumbs up*

@jenwriter17  It sounds really cool!

The only thing cliche I see about it (putting it next to the video on Dystopian novels) is the fact that the main character is a teenage girl

I’m no expert on the Dystopian genre, so I might be worng…

But still, I would read it 😉

@jenwriter17 Okay! Done 🙂 Sorry, it took a bit longer then I wanted it to. 

Ick, sorry about the bad lighting xD

I hope the expression suits Rin, even just a little bit xD I probably erased that mouth a good 10 times and i’m still not quite happy with it. Ah well. 🙂

oh, here’s a collage too…

@jenwriter17  She was super fun to do!  🙂

@jane-maree @dragon-snapper @dekreel @mariposa @aratrea @sam-kowal @daeus @anyone else

Okay, y’all…..

I’ve gotten together a rough blurb of my dystopian novel. very. rough. Lemme know what you think:

Independent teen Rin Adachi lives with the Outcasts. Those tossed aside by the government and society as unfit for city life. The diseased, the…[Read more]
