@filewriterbase13x That’s okay. 🙂 I have access now! 😀

@alia

Taking a break at the moment since I’ve been writing all morning but I’ll be back soon if you’ll be around.

@ariel-ashira

just a few, 😉 okay, a lot. They are pretty cool, I guess I just don’t think much of them because there are. So. Many. Everywhere. 🙂

@seekjustice thanks for tagging me, I might be on later 🙂

@ariel-ashira FCM is Family Covenant Ministries, a homeschool organization. They’re awesome! We know the family that runs it. Here’s the link if you want to check it out: https://www.familycovenantministries.com

yeah, I’m not sure if I’m comfortable saying exactly where I live, but it’s eastern Missouri 🙂 and you?

@skredder

Sorry for taking so long to reply! I got distracted.

What’re you working on?

by the way, I caught up with all the parts of your story and I’m loving it so far!

@rochellaine

I would love to come and visit you one day 😀 I’ve so many things I want to do in America! No, I’ve never left Australian waters 🙂 Where’d you go?

@catwing @ariel-ashira @alia @jenwriter17

Hey, I’m writing! Anyone want to join me?

@daughteroftheking Thanks!

I don’t think I’m going to any conferences, unfortunately. It would be awesome to get to meet you guys. 😉

@ariel-ashira Hey I’m in Missouri too! 😀 Do you know about FCM?

@rochellaine No, I’m not going to any homeschooling conferences this year. The organization we do events with isn’t planning one. (They’re Family Covenant Ministries by the way). Man, that would be so cool if I met some of y’all in person! *sighs* maybe one day…..

I’ll tag more @n…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira 😀 😀 That’s awesome. 😛 *won’t melt your chair today*

@seekjustice Why don’t you come visit us in America?  It’d be fun! 😀 (Have you ever traveled out of the country?  I have, once.)

Yeah, your characters are so mixed up. 😛

@jess-penrose Thank you!  She’s hungry, so a pizza will be helpful.  Character arcs, yes! 😀

Sorry, but I’m going to go to bed now.  It’s really late! 😉  I’m going to be up…[Read more]

Hey, for all of you people who read this topic, such as Ariel and Alia and probably others I don’t know about. 😛  I agree with Jess about disclaimers, so I’m putting in a disclaimer here.

You see, as I said earlier, the fact that I deleted it makes it sound worse than it really was, so to assure you that I didn’t have a weird or horrible…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Haha, that’s hilarious 😀 I feel I’d get on really well with your family. And yeah, he hadn’t even been properly shot, just grazed. Meanwhile, Justice has been shot seven times 😀

My sister and I were talking about this the other day, when I realised that he’d become some weird amalgamation of Lucie and Charles Darnay. And Zac is…[Read more]

@seekjustice Oh yes!  Now I remember I was laughing with my sister the other day over the fact that Quillon says “Gracious goodness, it hurts!” when he gets shot.  We were laughing because that’s my sister’s particular exclamation, and I always tell her she says it backwards, since most people say “goodness gracious.”  So I do remember from the la…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Yeah, it does sound a bit shifty 😛 I’ll definitely check it out if you want me too (I love reading thoughts. I’m super into dialogue, as you’ve probably noticed, even if it’s just a character debating with themselves).

@jess-penrose

Research on these topics has been ethical

Haha.  Disclaimers are always necessary, aren’t they? 😛

Okay, thanks.  That’s good to know.  But now I have a dilemma.  Can I convince myself that it’s really okay if one of my characters is starved, or will I be too softhearted?  That’s nearly as bad as killing them!

@seekjustice Afte…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Drat it, my reply didn’t post.

Basically, what I was saying was this:

I was going to add a section in the bits where Chessy chats to Justice’s grandfather with him mentioning his other no good grandson, and then I realised that that wouldn’t work because Zac isn’t his grandson. There are a few differences between Kendall and Zac,…[Read more]

@seekjustice Quillon would not cope? 😀 😀  I would think it would be Justice, since he’s more peevish when things go wrong.  I’d picture Quillon as the guy who pretends everything’s fine.  But I guess you’re right, different things affect different people different ways. (Goodness! Three uses of the word “different” one after another.  The…[Read more]

@seekjustice Ohh, it’s going so slowly! 🙁  I think perhaps soon, but I’m not sure yet.

Well, I was thinking it would be cool if sometime in Stars Justice got really frustrated with Kendall and told him something like “You’re just as bad as my cousin!” 😀  Or if he accidentally made the connection in the sequel and realizes that Zac might tur…[Read more]
