@PerfectFifths Waiting…and waiting…I feel for you. When are the results announced?

@Arella-Noreen I know Dallas, but I don’t really know where it is, so; yeah, you live somewhere in Texas! That’s fine, ’cause I wouldn’t know many other places there either. I think we were northeast TX.
@Ethryndal Yay!

@Aratrea then… hm. So then it’s possible for a character to be more than one of the three types? Because she’s definitely a type one, and yet when you said that I realize she could also be a type two after a fashion. Does that work?

@dragon-snapper thanks! Yes, I love all those too. And Barbara Manatee.
Well you see, I was four years old and was helping Daddy pump the gas. And I got too close. And it got in my eyes. And that’s how it happened. Thankfully it happened only five minutes away from our house, and mama was able to dump a water-bottle full of water into my eyes…[Read more]

I’m going to go with Arianwen again. Her arc mirrors Harold’s, making it a type one. They both follow disillusionment arcs.
Arianwen’s, however, more represents the flip side of Harold’s, because while Harold was particularly disillusioned with the ‘good guys’ and almost considered joining the bad guys, Arianwen, because she was on the wrong side…[Read more] -

@overcomer
I like this a lot! It has a very fairytale-ish feel (sorry for stealing your words, @ethryndal), which is what I’m sure you were going for. So nice job!
1. Try not to use parentheses as much as you do. Example:She plopped (rather ungraciously) back down on the divan and patted the spot next to her.
2. It might just be me but using the…[Read more]

@Overcomer *grins* I like this. Muchly. The only thing I might say do differently than how you have it is make this the peddler’s story, not the princess’s. By which I mean, take out the intro about the princess who had trouble dancing (hilarious though it is) and just start with the peddler on the road meeting the dancing master. That will give…[Read more]

@kina-lamb WIP is a Work in Progress, unless you already asked @daeus. 😉
Ah, King George and the Ducky, I love it when Melvin shows up. The song of ‘There Once was a Man’ was great, the tale short and sweet, as well as amusing. Favorite silly song…ouch. Er, I like Bubble Rap, as well as Pizza Angel, His Cheeseburger and all of them besides…[Read more] -

@dragon-snapper Ah, yes, Ear o’ corn and leg o’ lamb are great! I love it when they talk to each other. I also really like Grumpy. “Got any waffles?” What are some of your favorite books?

@graciegirl I looked up HSA. It looks like a great program! I’ll tell my dad about it. I think one of my other friends uses it, though I’m not positive. Wow, 50 minutes three times a week? That’s a lot! *gives you a high-five.*
Yeah, Ahem is pretty funny. I like it when the eagle shouts at them. What are some of your favorite books?

@dragon-snapper What’s WIP? I could get up and cross the room and open the door and walk down the hall and open another door and poke my head in and ask @daeus, but I’m too sleepy to do that right now. 😀
Do you know how to make your whistle high-pitched? I love doing that. I had a tin whistle before I lost it, and I loved playing on it. You…[Read more]

@kina-lamb Glad you’re liking them! I had fun coming up with the craziest things I could think of. One time I told someone to include dancing butterflies in their WIP. 😛
I was weirded out when I heard that about ‘nice’ as well, but because hardly anyone knows that, I usually just use it anyway. 😛
Celtic whistle is pretty much just my way of…[Read more] - Load More
