@ariel-ashira Historical fiction sounds like so much work! I feel really happy for all the people who put all the effort and care that it takes to make it. ^-^

@seekjustice Oh my, I’ll have to fly over to Australia and give you a back rub! I could bring you some tea too. 😉

@ariel-ashira

That’s really cool! I was reading about Perpetua quite recently actually, in one of my dad’s college textbooks 😀

@rochellaine Your book sounds SO neat!

Do you think some of the religious leader would’ve shunned her as well since her father returned the money and hung himself?

@rochellaine I would love to read some of it! It sounds like a really creative idea. I think even us Christians fail sometimes to display christlike behavior. (Which is pretty pathetic of us, but sadly that’s part of the human condition.) So it would be a cool theme to explore in a story. Or maybe that’s not quite the way you are approaching it?…[Read more]

@rochellaine @seekjustice @notawriter

I am researching various parts of roman life and stuff about Perpetua’s diary, trying to fill in the gaps on my story.  Yes, its a his-fic story.

Yeah, an SE his-fic topic would be cool!

@ariel-ashira Are you still working on your Biblical times story too?

@notawriter I want to say my stress levels, 😛 but we’ll go with “I’m working on a short story to submit to an anthology and it’s fun so far!”

@ariel-ashira Oh, what are you working on now? Still his-fic? I’ve been thinking of making an SE thread for historicals, cause I think that would be fun.  What do you think?

@notawriter I consider that a very quick reply. 😉  But I’ll be prepared in case there are slower ones.

My current novel is about the fictional daughter of Judas Iscariot.  I consider this a very interesting premise to work with because in all the New Testament novels I’ve read the Christians are the nice people and the unbelievers are the a…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira Ooh, cool! What are you researching?

@notawriter I am doing well.  Looking forward to writing this thing when I finish all this research…!

@seekjustice Hey. 😉 What’s up?

@rochellaine

And to clarify, when I say “I know a lot” I mean that I know a lot for an average run of the mill Australian girl.

And no, I haven’t. I’d never even thought of freezing grapes.

I’ll definitely read it, if you want to post it 😀

@notawriter @ariel-ashira Hello there!

@ariel-ashira Hi! How have you been doing? ^-^

@rochellaine I love frozen grapes!

Can I read your poem??

@notawriter Hi!

I am just researching, and stalking this topic. 😉

@rochellaine Yes I am here! You’ll have to forgive my slow replies. But I am here! Please do tell me about your current WIP! My ears are open! ^-^

@notawriter Hiieeee!!!  You’re here! 😀

@seekjustice I see. 🙂

Have you ever had frozen grapes?  We freeze them ourselves, just washing them and putting them in a plastic bag in the freezer.  They’re an amazing summer snack.  Would you believe it…we’ve actually frozen raisins too. 😛  We used to put frozen raisins in our oatmeal for breakfast.  I remember liking it quite a lot, thou…[Read more]

Hey is anybody home? 😀

@rochellaine

I have a friend who’s mother knows a lot about the culture and has done some travelling, so I hear about it quite a lot.

Our family doesn’t eat frozen fruit, except for putting in smoothies or milkshake sort of things. I think my siblings like eating frozen blueberries a bit.

Actually, I can tell you that I do like canned fruit a…[Read more]

@seekjustice Yes, it’s because of the Middle Eastern background.  Wow, that was a quick connection you made!

I like fresh fruit too, and agree that dried fruit is not the best.  I like dried apricots and mango a lot.  Dried cranberries are probably my favorite, but those have to be sweetened, because they’re extremely sour. 😉  What do you thin…[Read more]
