@seekjustice Oh my goodness, yes!  Tell Him Anything is a heartbreaking song!

@rochellaine

I haven’t read any of his adult ones, though they do sound quite interesting.

Ooh, interesting. I should have a look for that version!

Nope, I haven’t heard of that one. But yes, Around the World in Eighty Days is really good!

True. Sometimes I forget that I’m not a normal teenaged girl.

I know, its hilarious! I’m also super…[Read more]

@seekjustice We don’t have either of the Princess and the Goblins books, but I’ve read the synopses of them online.  I actually watched the Shirley Temple show version of the Princess and the Goblins and loved it.  It’s really funny.  It’s not quite like the book, but it’s really very good.  The books by him I’ve read are more mature fantasy boo…[Read more]

@rochellaine

No I don’t really think there’s much connection, its just the connotations.

I just remember that Franm Peretti terrified me and I’ve never gone near him since

As for MacDonald, I’ve only read the Princess and the Goblins and the Princess and Curdie, but I love those two books 🙂

I haven’t read that Verne book, it seems. Which one…[Read more]

@seekjustice I think I researched the Seven Sleepers myth once, too, but not extensively. 🙂  It’s been a while since I read those books.   But…they really don’t have anything to do with the myth except the name, right?

I was literally trembling the whole way through the Cooper Kids The Door in the Dragon’s Throat when I read it probably fiv…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Let’s just assume they are 😉

I’ve never finished either of those series, i researched the actual Seven sleepers myth and was so creeped out i never went back.

I also read one of the Cooper kid stories but it also terrified me. I know I wouldn’t find it scary now, but the memory has been tainted and I’d never be able to enjoy it.…[Read more]

@seekjustice Dunno.  Never been to mission conferences. 😛  They’re probably similar, but I really have no idea.

Well, I really loved the Chuck Black Kingdom series when I read it a few years ago, and I also loved the Gilbert Morris Seven Sleepers series, even though the latter has a lot of plothole or timeline confusions between the different b…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I’ve been to mission conferences before, are they kind of like that?

I think its technically for speculative fiction writers, so sci-fi and dystopian too, which is more what I did be interested in. I haven’t read a good YA fantasy in…basically forever. Most of the fantasy I like were written by people who are dead 😉

I’ve never…[Read more]

@seekjustice Oh, too bad.  But I was mostly wanting to know because homeschool conferences are often not like normal conferences, so I was wondering if you knew the difference. 🙂

Yes, I’ve heard of it, but it’s not something I’d be interested in since it’s all about fantasy and probably will have a lot of magic and sorcery discussions going on…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Cool! My parents used to go to homeschool conferences but they’d always leave us at home. I’ve never been to one. But our area has a lot of homeschoolers in it anyway.

Bermuda sounds really nice 🙂

Have you heard of the Realm Makers conference? Its a Christian writers thing and I’ve always wanted to go. I’d like to see New York,…[Read more]

@seekjustice It went okay. 🙂  We saw a lot of old friends, so that was nice.  We’re going again tomorrow for the second day of it.  Do you ever go to homeschool conferences?

Oh, in answer to your earlier question, once my dad had a business awards meeting in Bermuda, so he took all of us there.  That was amazing!!! 😀

So you have a lot of thin…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I scanned it, but I haven’t read it properly yet. I’ll actually go and do that right now. How’d your conference go?

@jenwriter17 Okay, goodbye!  Nice seeing you if only for a few minutes!

@seekjustice Have you had a chance yet to look over that little piece I gave you yesterday?

@rochellaine I got 247 😉

I have to go now. Thank you so much for the war! It always helps to get things going. 🙂

@jenwriter17 It was supposed to be five minutes, right?  Or did I misunderstand you?

@jenwriter17 I wrote 173 words.  How about you?

@rochellaine okay, START! 😀

@jenwriter17 Yes! Just give the word to start. 🙂  I’m standing by.

@ariel-ashira aw, too far for a quick drive over 😛 lemme know if you’re ever east over here 😉

@alia @ariel-ashira @seekjustice @rochellaine Anybody available for a quick 5 minutes word war?
