@ariel-ashira @rochellaine Excuse me??? Talking about names without me? That is only my favourite subject ever (after using symbolism in stories).

But I don’t often use “weird” names, because I don’t usually make up my own names. Probably the weirdest names I’ve used are things that aren’t really names (Waif, Justice, etc)

Having said that,…[Read more]

And guess what? I’m currently reading The Return of the King! I’m fine for fantasy (but please, please can we do historical next month????)

Also, just a  suggestion. What if we were to read for the whole month and share what we learn as we go, but we don’t necessarily have to read t…[Read more]

@rochellaine @ariel-ashira Either of you on? I’m editing……..

@jenwriter17  I’d like to join! I need to read LOTR anyways. 😛

Hopefully I will have the time!

@ariel-ashira What happened to your biblical era story?  Are you still working on that?

What type of names are from the medieval era?  I love names like Ethel and AEmilia but those are from a lot earlier.  For some reason my brain isn’t letting me remember the medieval style right now.  Could you give me some examples of what you’ve fou…[Read more]

@rochellaine @jenwriter17 Im glad you like it!  I will likely name it that, but of course I dont really know for sure yet.  I am having the worst time I have ever had naming characters yet!  Medieval English names are pretty awful for the most part.  😛

@ariel-ashira *facepalm* Ohh, I can’t believe I forgot that!  Sorry. 😛

That name sounds very cool.  It confuses me because I usually hear the variation, “My blood for his” so that makes your version interesting and different.

@jenwriter17 Choosing names is hard, but also extremely fun!  But only recently have I discovered the joy in it.  I am…[Read more]

@rochellaine Like I mentioned, I am only able to research right now, not actually write the thing.  So no, my character is a ways from being burnt.

How does the title “My Blood for Yours” sound?

@ariel-ashira Hey, how’s it going?  Did you burn your character yet?  Or are you already healing him/her? 😛

@jenwriter17 Hello!  I’m still working on my parents books.  I’m setting them up so people can buy them online, since I’ve been procrastinating and still haven’t done that. 😮

How about you?  Still editing?

@jenwriter17 I am trying to come to a decision on what I am gonna name some of my characters.

@jenwriter17 I’m not going to join in this time, but do let me know when you start a different genre, will you?  It sounds like fun!

@rochellaine HI!

Anyone here? @jenwriter17 @valtmy @dekreel @catwing @ariel-ashira

@leumeister

Is everything you write sci-fi?  Do you like other genres at all?

Yes, it’s amazing how much they can do with computer effects in tv shows now, especially when you consider that for Star Trek: TOS the costume and set designers just went to used clothing stores and junk piles for a lot of their stuff since the budget was so small.…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 @catwing @seekjustice @princessfoo
I vote fantasy as well, and no, it doesn’t have anything to do with the fact that my current read is fantasy too. 😛 (Ranger’s Apprentice yeaaaahhh!!)

(also if this post shows up twice, don’t blame me. Blame the angry computer gnomes in my laptop.)

@jenwriter17 *rises dramatically out of the floor* Count me in!

@leumeister  I would like to try one/both of your characters…but I have hardly any time to spare at the moment, as I am helping prepare for my sister’s graduation party this Saturday.  They do sound like awesome characters though and it may be next week before I get to them.  🙂

@valtmy Sorry for dropping out on you. 🙁  I’m just popping in now to let you know I am not going to be on for a while, but I’ll probably be on and off later today.

@valtmy

Slack-jawed confusion is not necessarily the reaction I am going for.

Congratulations, you have now ascended to the ranks of @seekjustice, who up to this point has been the only other person I recall who made me laugh aloud just from a forum message. 😀

@valtmy Well, it’s supposed to be a comedy, right?

😛
