@valtmy That’s an interesting idea.  I don’t know that I would do it with this story.  I’m more inclined to agree with @seekjustice that it’s a simple, slapstick story and doesn’t need depth to make sense, because it’s not supposed to make sense. 😉  However, right now I have one of you on either side, so I’ll just talk to a few other people an…[Read more]

@seekjustice Goodbye, and please treat your patients better than my doctors and nurses treat theirs! 😛

@seekjustice Thank you!  That is how I intended it, so when Valtmy said it should be more realistic I was kind of confused.  I like realistic, but there’s a time and place for very unrealistic stuff as well. 😉  I just wanted to put a piece of craziness together, and I think that worked. 😛

@valtmy @rochellaine

Anyway, I’m going to first aid tonight 😀 Fare well!

@rochellaine

I think that, because its silly, slapstick sort of comedy and doesn’t matter. No one reading comedy is looking for something that particularly make sense. In the context of the story, it doesn’t bother me at all 😛

@seekjustice Ah, perfect. 😛  My sister has fallen asleep (which is actually a good thing…) so I can’t show her the story. 🙁 I can’t wait until tomorrow morning, because it’s the type of story she’ll love.

I have a question.  You gave me a lot of corrections on my medical personnel in my Western, so you’re probably the perfect person to ask a…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Well, my family would probably think I’m a loony with the amount I’m laughing at the moment, so I guess so.

@seekjustice I assume that means you liked it? 😛

@rochellaine

My word. Gracious goodness. Glory be.

@valtmy @seekjustice Oh, I don’t think I allowed you commenting access.  If you want to comment, but can’t, you can probably use this link instead:

Or you can just tell me what you think here. 😀

@valtmy Okay, so when you said you were writing comedy, (yes, I already knew you were writing comedy, but you know sometimes your brain does different things at different times, right?) my brain had a flash that went something like “I love writing comedy.  I should write a comedy short story.” and then I started to write.  Starting from the f…[Read more]

@rochellaine  Okey dokey 🙂

*sits back to wait* *starts on math sums*

@seekjustice @valtmy It’s almost done.  Give me a few more minutes. 😉

@rochellaine

Ooh, interesting! What’s it about???

@seekjustice @valtmy Sorry for kind of disappearing!  I didn’t really go anywhere, it’s just that Valtmy gave me a great idea for a very short story and I got caught up in writing it and forgot to post for a while. 🙂

@valtmy

😛 My pleasure 😀

@valtmy

I wouldn’t worry about it too much at the moment, but if you’d like here’s a blog post I read yesterday about those kind of “quiet” scenes, if you’d find it useful: Click this link! (that doesn’t sound like a dodgy advertisement at all)

@valtmy Sort of. 🙂  I’ve written enough that I could post it, but nothing exciting happens in any of the scenes I’ve written lately, since they’re just resolution scenes for the earlier excitements.  I was planning to wait until I at least had something new that would be a little bit interesting before posting the next section.

I don’t want to b…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Oooh, we’re having lasagna for dinner tomorrow night. Its my favourite dish 😀 Pasta is pretty bland, but I like it with other things. 🙂 Rice is my favourite though.

@valtmy

I think every scene does need a conflict or a goal of some kind, or else its going to be boring, but the goal doesn’t need to be a major one. For example, the…[Read more]

@seekjustice Mm, sounds good!  I love Chinese food, but it gives me a stomachache, so…there’s always that balance when I have the chance to eat it. 😛  Oh, pasta is also a dish we eat a lot.  Mostly when my dad isn’t home, though, since he thinks pasta is bland. 😉  My mom makes a good spicy lasagna, though, that he does enjoy.

You’ll never gue…[Read more]
