Kate Flournoy replied to the topic The Gray Havens: Music and Storytelling in the forum Music 8 years, 1 month ago
@Christi-Eaton wow, I don’t usually go for this type of music but after the first line of Ghost of a King I was so stuck in the story I didn’t even notice. And did you listen to Train Station? Aw man… I may have to write a short story based off that one.
So— strong points of storytelling I noticed in Ghost of a King specifically. One, they…[Read more]

@rebelutoinary Cool, thanks 🙂 Which Chronicle of Narnia is your favorite?
@emma-flournoy Thanks, I’m glad 😉
@dragon-snapper Me and My Cello is so sweet/hilarious! It’s so hard to pick a favorite song. Waterfall is so nice… I’d love to be able to play it someday. Wow, that novel sounds cool! I wish you well in your writing! 🙂
@christi-eaton Thanks 🙂 -

@Emma-Flournoy not get into a Lincoln debate, preferably. 😛 I am open to disagreements, anybody who feels like being… well… disagreeable ;), but since no one’s offering let’s not debate.
XD@Christi-Eaton yes, and not one I care to experience again. 😛 I almost passed out from a fever a few years ago and it was a whole lot more severe (may…[Read more]

@Christi-Eaton actually it’s a habit I just started, after being told again and again and again that I HAD to do it… it’s actually quite addicting. 😀
@Daeus well, that’s the thing with video-cameras. They’re never around when you need them. 😛
And that is true, about the history books. Good point. The saying should properly be ‘The victors…[Read more] -

Hey people— @BlueJay, @corissa-maiden-of-praise, @christi-eaton, @anne-of-lothlorien, and anyone else who may tag me—just wanted to let you know, I’m not ignoring your tags. I’ve seen them, but we’re on vacation, and with not much wi-fi time; so it’ll probably be about a week before I get back to what you tagged me for.
But I’m not ignoring…[Read more] -

Ah, this looks like the right place for this. @BlueJay 😀
So, who out there has read Sherlock Holmes and loved him? Or, dare I say it, hated him? *gasps* If you do hate him, please tell me why, because aside from a few swear words 😛 I thought they were some of the best stories I’ve ever read. In one of the books, Sir Doyle did something that…[Read more]

@BlueJay Sounds like a blast! 😀
Hey, this may sound like a completely random question (maybe because it is :P) But have you ever read any Sherlock Holmes? I recently decided to read them, and (aside from a few swear words 😛 ) I was blown away by how wonderful they were. *disclaimer: it’s generally Americans swearing. I assure you that this is…[Read more]

@christi-eaton Oh, sure. It’s coming along pretty well so hopefully won’t be too long.
@zcpeterson Thou art officially warned to read the count of monte cristo, the punishment for not doing so being that you will not have read it, at which apocalypse the angels will surely weep for you.

@Overcomer and I had an idea a little bit ago for the fall. Because summer is now over, (yay–Fall!) that means that The Awesome Summer Writing Club is no longer summery. So, without further ado, I will begin a new topic with the same principal.

You are most welcome, friend! 🙂 Glad you got it figured out. Happy writing!

@spradlin 🙂 *whispers* It’s ready for beta readers now. Psst, @daeus are you interested in reading “the Golden Conch”?
How many people should I send it to in at once?-
@bluejay Yes, I am interested, but I’m a little swamped right now. I’m beta reading two other novels and Kate might send me the second piece of hers any time. Would it be alright if I postpone for a month?
-
LOL! Wish I had time to do the thing. SUBMIT IT WHEN YOU’RE DONE THOUGH! cuz that’s the cool thing to do. xD

When it’s done, it will be coming your way. But I hope you have patience cause I have a feeling it might be some time… XD

Haha! Not a problem! Can’t wait to see it. 🙂

@Bluejay I’d love to, but unfortunately I’m way to busy right now to take on any extra projects. Keep me on the list though. 😉 Perhaps a later draft…

@emma-flournoy I have no idea if you’ll see this, but that’s okay. 🙂 Hope you are having a great time away. 😀
@bluejay We are, thanks. 🙂
@emma-flournoy WELCOME BACK! I missed you. 🙂
Aww, thanks @BlueJay. *hugs you*
Oh, and I’ll be replying to your e-mail sometime soon—hopefully tomorrow or the next day.
@BlueJay
*hugs you too* Oh goody. I look forward to it. 🙂
Hey, I know you don’t 100% write, but you any good with beta reading?
@emma-flournoy
@bluejay
Yyyyyus…in fact, that’s what I do for Kate’s book. I (since you asked!) do think I’m a pretty good beta-reader; pretty tough, but I think that’s good, for someone really wanting feedback. I’m not trying to brag, you understand… :/
Why?
I have a 15 page story that I’m giving a few people for critiquing and so I thought you might be interested…?
And I understand about not bragging when you are trying to tell someone that you can do it well. 🙂 @emma-flournoy
*happy nod* (happy that you’d consider me!)
Since it’s not very long I should have time, but I’m gonna ask Mom, and get back with you about it tomorrow. All good?
🙂
@BlueJay
That’s fine. 🙂 I’ll wait. And FYI you don’t need to tag me for me to receive and email notification. When we post here, it just let’s me know. But let’s make sure. I’m not going to tag you, do you get a notification…?
Huh. That’s helpful. I did not know that. (Obviously.)
Yes, I did get a notification—it’s doing that ’cause we’re having our own conversation, or why?
I think it is something to do with the fact that we are under your profile. So maybe it is linking that with your email. I don’t know. But there you have it folks… 🙂
Good to know. 🙂
Okay, Mom said that’s fine, so you can e-mail me the document I guess, and I’ll ask you more about the beta-reading in replying to the e-mail.
