Anne of Lothlorien started the topic What Can I Do? in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 7 years, 11 months ago
“This is a story about two children. Actually, it’s story about two children and a mischievous and slightly sulky door, but I mustn’t get ahead, must I?
At birth these two children were given the names Nicholas Wilbur Rothelburg and Scarlett Jaylie Rothelburg. They also happened to have been given these names at almost the exact same time, on the…[Read more] -

@bluejay But Edmund was only infuriating the most in tLtWatW. Not Prince Caspian. I just hate the way Peter says, “No, no retreat! I can still do this!”
Really!!!!!
Come one, you hold the lives of armies in your hands and yet you just be a jerk and say “Oh, don’t worry, my plans ruined, but I have to prove I’m better than Prince Caspian. Let’s…[Read more]

Hmm… Well I’ll gladly answer your questions, Doctor @bluejay
1. Not overly so.
2. I suspect I bruise normally. I don’t have many bruises, so maybe that will answer your question.
3. Yes, it can be at times. I’d say there are about four or so days out of the week that I don’t get much sleep at all.
4. Oh, I most definitely prefer reading a…[Read more] -

@bluejay Ahh; this is fantastic. One of my favorite books. Probably don’t have time to join you all in this, but in the context of what makes the book so Austen-esque, I think that that character complexity, moral depth, understated wit, and clever social satire all play into what made Austen such a great author, and what makes Pride and Prejudice…[Read more]

@daues @hope @bluejay @kate-flournoy @emma-flournoy @dragon-snapper @writefury
Can someone tell me what a visual poem is please? I saw @bluejay‘s poem that she labeled that, but then @daeus said it wasn’t really a visual poem and I wasn’t able to click on the link to see his. What is it? Cause when I know, I might want to write one. I enjoy poetry.

@kate-flournoy and @hope Yes, I didn’t really like the green mist thing. I loved Reepicheep in the movie, and I think they changed his voice actor from Prince Caspian. Oh, by the way, can a Christian girl swoon over a character in a movie? I’ve always loved Caspian, even though he’s a jerk in PC, just because of his hair, and his accent.…[Read more]

@bluejay @sleepwalkingmk I don’t know which version it is, I just know it’s the one with Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy out on the dock after their wedding. It was just too sick-y romantic for me. Yes, I looked it up and I think it’s the 2005 one. I want to the the U.K. version. My mom has the complete collection of Jane Austin works, so I might read it…[Read more]

SleepwalkingMK replied to the topic Pride and Prejudice in the forum Book Discussions 7 years, 11 months ago
@bluejay Is this a book club sort of thing? Can I just jump in?
I love Pride and Prejudice. The book is amazing because Austen uses this story to critique the people and their views of one another. And then her sarcastic commentary adds so much flavor to it. First classic I’ve read that made me actually laugh.Oooo. Good luck in your efforts 🙂 I…[Read more]

@bluejay Ah, okay. I don’t know why I didn’t see it… *trails off into deep thought* Anyway, that’s cool. Maybe I’ll have to look into supplements then -see if they’ll work for me. 😉
-
@faithdk Sorry, I had to go out, so I couldn’t reply.
Yeah, they might work. Let me ask you a quick few questions, but you don’t have to answer them if you don’t want to.
1. Do you feel tired a lot?
2. Do you bruise easily?
3. Is sleeping a problem?
4. Do you prefer reading a book or running around?
*the doctor sits back and smiles at you*-
Hmm… Well I’ll gladly answer your questions, Doctor @bluejay

Hmm *peers over glass rims* I wouldn’t be surprised if you have an iron deficiency. Sleeping was a big problem for me and I would much rather curl up on the couch with a book. I just didn’t have the energy to get through the day if I did too much. So I went on supplements to fix it and I notice my hair grew much faster. (Which is really nice) @faithdk
-
I applaud you, docter. Your analysis was spot on! 😉 I do, indeed, have an iron deficiency. In fact, when I was younger, I was very sick (not solely because of the iron deficiency, but it was a factor), and was put on many medications for two years. After no improvement, and my condition worsening, my parents decided to take me off of them and…[Read more]

@perfectfifths I have only attempted two stories, both of them historical fiction, and both very unfinished. Once my writing skills improve, I hope to write spiritual warfare fiction, like This Present Darkness by Frank Peretti. Other people have posted snippets of their writing in Scene Critiques, and under the SciFi topic; I just remembered I do…[Read more]

(@bluejay I had to start another message. I think the first one got too long, and I’m not able to reply) That sounds great! I’d love to hear how it turns out.
I’ve always wanted to donate my hair! Sadly, I don’t think that will ever be an option for me… my hair grows SO slow. It’d take years before it was long enough to be worth donating. I…[Read more]-
@faithdk Haha. I think all you have to do it scroll back up and you’ll find the reply button. It will put it at the end of the conversation. My hair use to be really slow growing, but I’ve been on supplements and it is slightly faster. I would probably donate it first and then when it is slightly longer get layers.

@bluejay I see… It sounds very much like something I might have to look into further. Just recently, I’ve been thinking about acting and trying it out -see if I’m any good.

@bluejay basically, yes -busy life. 😛 But I am trying to get back into the writing groove again. A few blog posts are really the only writing I’ve done over the past few months, and frankly, it irks me to pieces!
Ooh, that sounds interesting. But I have never heard of a pantomime… what is it exactly?-
A pantomime is “theatrical entertainment in which words are replaced by gestures and bodily actions.” At least that’s what the dictionary says. So basically it’s more about acting your part out. Also if you are doing a Peter Pan panto he’s a girl. Please don’t ask me why, it just is. *weird* Although it did allow me to have him. And the next year…[Read more]

Hey @bluejay! *waves back furiously* 😀 I know! Ugh, forgive me… I have been reading a few of the recent topics and posts, I just haven’t had the time to take part in any discussions. I hope that will soon change. 😉 I have missed all my fellow KeePers immensely!

@faithdk Busy life??? It’s about to get busy for me. I have a kids convention and then a pantomime. It will be fun, but extremely full on. I’m guessing KP won’t see much of me in January. 🙂

@bluejay Yah, I cried too, at the beginning, when I knew his parents would die cause how else would he get stranded in the woods, when he had to choose between Elliot and his ‘family’ and even at the end when he found Elliot again. I wasn’t expecting that, but I guess they weren’t happy to leave it like the old one, where he never sees them again.…[Read more]
