BlueJay

@bluejay @jess @dragon-snapper I got 512 written, which I think is my best this week since I was only here for about 45 minutes of my normal hour.

@Bluejay, @winter-rose, @Daeus, @dragon-snapper, I’l join you too, though I’m a little late. 🙁

@daeus @bluejay @winter-rose Here I am!

@bluejay @winter-rose I’ll be joining too.

@bluejay Oh, it sounds fun! 😀

@kate-flournoy, I write basically for both. Sheer enjoyment and how I process things in life. It just depends on what I’m feeling at the time that I’m either on my computer or having a literal pencil in my hand. and of course you can read some of my stuff @bluejay! I should have my blog link on my profile but if not I can always shoot it to you

Here’s mine: “Darling, haven’t you ever heard of a delightful little thing called boarding school?”

@anne-of-lothlorien Never mind. I kind of cheated. =P It’s from an unreleased movie. Just wanted to infuriate someone.

@bluejay Pretty sure that’s a Jane Austen something . . . is it?

@bluejay I don’t know that one. It’s definitely “Give the boy a prize!”
Which one are you thinking of?

@bluejay Some really good books that I loved were the Magic Tree House books. I just say this to emphasize @sarah-h ‘s point. Back-then stuff is good.

@perfectfifths, Welcome! I’m also Australian. I noticed you told @bluejay that you were from WA. I used to live there! But I live in Brisbane now. WA is amazing. It was sort of my first childhood home (actually that would be America, but I don’t remember that very well, so it would have to be Perth. Is that where you’re from?

@leumeister, Hi!! I’m Australian too! Before, @bluejay, @anna-brie and I were the only Aussies. It’s okay if you’d rather not say, but where in Australia are you from? And I noticed on @perfectfifths introductory thread that you guys are siblings. I live in Brisbane. Anyway, Welcome! Oh and by the way, you title (Hey guys, hi, um…) reminded me…[Read more]

@bluejay Hmm….well, Robin Hood was a real person, so that might qualify…or, maybe a story from the perspective of a mischievous ship’s boy on Captain Cook’s ship, exploring the South Sea Islands (I think)….I remember when I was that age, I liked stories about early American history: Indians and settlers, patriots and redcoats. Ooh, and…[Read more]

@Bluejay *seizes head and groans* I am SO sorry but I have nothing to give you! *curls into miserable ball*
It’s so awful, ’cause I’m always picking apart childrens’ stories for being dumb, or too generic, or badly done, or whatever, but I guess that makes me kind of a hypocrite since I can’t think of anything better myself. 🙁 If I think of…[Read more]
