@rochellaine But even if you cant get involved with SE (which is understandable) I would encourage you to read some of their articles.  Some of the ones they have posted latley are the best I have ever read!  Are you subscribed to their emails?  And are you entering their short story contest?

@rochellaine Yes, its fun, but it isn’t the same when you are not there.

They have a thread like this one, only they call it the Scribblers Station because you can also share art you have been doing as well as writing.  And Mariposa has been writing SE stories that are unbelievably funny, and make KP sound like its an ancient world.  (in one s…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Hey! I’m back! And oh yes, I’ve often thought that it has a similiar plot to beauty and the beast.

@seekjustice Possibly.  As usual, it all depends on when I get tired and decide to go to sleep. 😉

See you later!

@rochellaine

I’m going to disappear for a bit. Will you be on later?

@seekjustice Yeah, I was actually thinking yesterday as I listened to those songs that Jane Eyre reminded me of Beauty and the Beast.  Except that Jane wasn’t supposed to be very pretty.  Do you see the comparison like I do?

Who knows? 🙂

Great. 😀

@ariel-ashira No, I am not.  I have been considering it, but this forum distracts me enough fr…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I just find him super weird and creepy and I have no idea what Jane sees in him. Other than that i liked Jane and I liked the story quite a lot.

Hey, who knows, you’ve managed to convert me to two old musicals 😉

Hopefully I’ll read it once I’m done with Oliver Twist 🙂

@rochellaine Are you on the Story Embers forum?

@seekjustice Uh, yeah.  Mr. Rochester isn’t exactly a hero we can sympathize with.  He really didn’t do anything right!  Jane is a pretty nice person herself, though.  Well, I haven’t listened to much of it.  Only about two songs, which I thought were pretty good.  It was an accident that I found it, but I don’t remember what I was listening to pr…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I have heard some of Jane Eyre, but my feelings on the story are quite mixed so I’ve never listened to the whole thing.

I will listen to those (maybe this afternoon). And I’ll look into the Disney musicals as well!

@seekjustice 🙁 I’m sorry.

Well, I was listening to a bit of Jane Eyre yesterday, but I’m sure you’ve already heard that musical, haven’t you?

I also recently found some 70s(ish?) musicals by Disney, (where Newsies came from, of course,) about Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn.  I haven’t seen the movies, and I don’t know how accurate to the…[Read more]

@rochellaine  What do you think of the song “Climb Every Mountain”?  I dont think you mentioned that one.  I agree with you about the other songs.  Sixteen going on Seventeen would be funny if it didnt actually happen all the time in real life.

@jenwriter17 @rochellaine @ariel-ashira Thanks so much! I really appreciate it 🙂

@rochellaine

it hasn’t been a great month so far, but I’m sure I’ll get over it soon. Have you listened to any new musicals lately? I could use some new listening material 🙂

@seekjustice Praying for you!  That sounds really tough, being a writer and all.

@seekjustice 😛

Ah, that is a good thing.

How’s everything going for you, other than your poor wrists?

@rochellaine

Of course. I live in the future and know many things.

True! I would just sit down and read right through a book if life would let me. the good thing is though, I’m way behind so I have plenty to read 🙂

@seekjustice Haha!  You’ve been reading my conversations with Jen, haven’t you? 😛  Unfortunately, it’s a whole lot easier getting distracted than staying focused.

Yup, that’s partly why I like reading something all at once.  That way I don’t forget what happened.  Also, I can get more into the book if I read it all at once.  If there’s a sad…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Don’t get distracted! Poor Chara will never get new shoes if you do that!

Fair enough. I prefer  reading a little bit at a time, if i’m commenting/editing it. I am enjoying it, unfortunately its been so long since I read the first bit that I’ve kind of forgotten what happened. :/

@seekjustice Well, I’ve been getting distracted, but I’ll get back to work now. 🙂  Thanks for reminding me. 😛

Ohhh, reading Jen’s book?  You might be making me jealous.  Oh well, I had the chance to read it and turned it down!  Because I’d rather read the entirety of a book at once rather than reading little sections at a time.  I’ll get to r…[Read more]
