Well, it hurts my pride, my honestly my pride is rather…I don’t know…large. And I could do with some humility. That’s why God made me a writer 😛
Fair enough. That makes sense. Honestly, I think the uniqueness of my story lies not so much in the plot, because the plot is…well, fairly average, but more so in the characters.…[Read more]

So I’ve been agonising over your post for w ay longer than is normal and I’ve come to this conclusion:
Writing retellings are a balancing act between original content and not. For example, I think the changes I made with Caderousse (have you started P4 yet?) were good because someone would expect that of a story based on Les…[Read more]

Hopefully!
I do quite like parodies if they’re done right 🙂
I didn’t change that much, did I?

Well, I have the 1955 version in the house currently, so I’ll watch that first but I know our library has the 1999 version so I might watch that one later.
Yep its definitely a classic one. I’m a bit of a Sherlock Holmes nerd 😉
Well, yes, I am overly obsessed with Les Mis and have listened to so many different versions and I have…[Read more]

Ah, that’s unfortunate. My family tends to stick the rain out and make us all miserable 😛
I’m not sure how many I’ve seen, I’d have to count. By the way, do you like the 19something version of Oklahoma or the Hugh Jackman version best?
I guess so, she just struck me as really naïve and not at all smart.
She’s in her forties, but…[Read more]

Sorry I keep missing you! I was at church this morning you see 😀
Welcome back! Does your family go camping much?
Yeah, I didn’t like that, and it’s generally not my style (Oh, I love Brigadoon! Its pretty much the only exception to the old musical dislike. And I don’t mind Mary Poppins. But other than that…)
I did…[Read more]

I do not know how to fake someone’s death. I have never done it before

Never. Not even to Zac.

@rochellaine Yes, yes, I know… Hey, at least I didn’t STOP coming here all together. 😛
“Sentient being.” Yeah. I might just start using that phrase. XD
Poor Bobert! Maybe he likes Jen because she’s a Steampunk horse. Because honestly, there are few things more awesome than a Steampunk horse.

@dekreel hi, thanks for tagging me, but I can’t write at the moment. I just got back from a writing conference and I am wiped. out. I hope to be on the corner next week more though. 🙂
Happy writing!

Going okay. How are you?

@rochellaine Hey, hey!! I know, it’s been a while! 😀
I’m doing okay. Sorry I haven’t been around much. The Aetherlight has been so addicting…
How is, um… Bobert doing? XD

You know you’re a writer when you see a tall stack of clean, fresh notebooks at the store and you go, “MUST… HAVE…!!!!!”

Okay, I’m done. Bye, guys.
And don’t worry, Rochellaine, WE SHALL MEET ONE DAY. I’m sure of it.

It was better than Liliom, definitely. I’m not sure I could say that I liked it though. The more of these old musicals I watch the more I’m sure I’ll never find one that I love 🙂
I think though, my main problem was that the ending made me really uncomfortable, especially the part where Louise and Julie talk about being hit and never feeling a…[Read more]

True. I’ve been learning imperial measurement in math lately and it drives me crazy.
Ah, I see. Usually, we’d say “so and so is five foot nine,” we usually leave off the inches, but still say the feet.

Numbers are the bane of my life.
You don’t appreciate ten because all your measurements are so random and weird and all over the place. In metric measures, everything is in ten–10 millimetres in a centimetre, 100 centimetres in a metre, 1000 metres in a kilometre. Its very easy to remember 😀
Five foot fourteen 😛
