Kate Flournoy replied to the topic The Mind of a Writer in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 10 months ago
You know it’s kinda weird because the real world is where our characters aren’t that real, but then we enter the writer’s world where are characters are people just like us and then when something happens in that world we get to the real world of writing and emotions. So strange.
@Bluejay YES. And that, dear girl, is the reason I write. The r…[Read more]

@Kate-Flournoy Well, “normal” is a relative term… 😛
Yeah, that’s kind of happened to me before. I talk about my characters every once in a while, and about whether or not so and so should die or if I want this person’s best friend to be courting this person’s brother or a different random guy, or whether that character should die or just lose…[Read more]

@emma-flournoy I’m not sure it is going to be all right. He’s DEAD. *weeps harder* Just wait till you read it. I’ll have you all crying buckets of tears. At least I hope. I mean it would be dreadful if Ernst died and you didn’t shed even one tear.
@kate-flournoy Thanks for the warm welcome. I’m not sure I like the real world. You know it’s kinda…[Read more] -

Nope, we’re good. *grins*
See @Corissa-Maiden-of-Praise, this is what I’m talking about. Talking like this in front of normal people— like they know about the people inside your head and actually believe they’re as real as they are to you. 😀
@Bluejay well now you’re stuck. Tears are the point of no return. Hope you never had any delusions…[Read more]

Corissa/Anne I don’t know if I’ve ever asked myself that question. I might have. I ask myself a lot of questions, but can’t generally remember them.

@kate-flournoy Well, I’m not sure I’ve ever said it like that, but I was weeping yesterday because I had just killed one of my characters. I hated doing it, but he kinda just made it happen. It was who he was. When I had finished writing it, I wanted to delete that part and bring him back, but I’m not sure Enrst would be too pleased with me. Oh…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy *hands you WD-40* Here, spray this all over yourself. He’ll like you then.
I’m really sorry about that, by the way. If you want me to have a talk with him, I can.

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic The Mind of a Writer in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 10 months ago
@Daeus well he was really minor so that’s no surprise. And you didn’t pick on him, so really, he doesn’t dislike you.
Which is the closest he ever gets to liking anyone. So you’re gonna be fine, I promise. He hates me, and that’s… interesting.@Corissa-Maiden-of-Praise I meant more, have you ever just flat out said ‘”Such and such a character…[Read more]

@Kate-Flournoy I’m sorry, I don’t quite understand the question… you mean you quote your characters and other people don’t get it because the book isn’t published yet?
Here’s a question @anne-of-lothlorien requested I ask, word for word.
“Have you ever asked your imaginary counterpart in your mind why you talk to him/her? I did the other day,…[Read more]

Yep. Youtube, Emma.
@kate-flournoy I have? This is an existential crisis moment. But he disliked me a little? That’s. Absolutely. Terrible! *hides in a hole and covers top* What if I gave him youtube. Then he could watch the king of random and oh! he would be so happy and would no doubt love me for it. Right? Right?
Right?

Ha! But unfortunately you’ve already met him, and fortunately he didn’t take any extreme disliking to you, and unfortunately again this world does not have WD-40, which is suppose is irrelevant now.
@DaeusAnd for this topic… sometimes I forget my characters aren’t really there. I mean, not REALLY forget, but I’ll just be talking and some…[Read more]

@emma-flournoy Um, well, communication isn’t his stronghold of course, but he is good at summarizing things. Do people actually look at your manuals? Just give them links to youtube videos is my suggestion.

Daeus replied to the topic The Mind of a Writer in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 10 months ago
@kate-flournoy I’ll make sure to be armed with some WD-40 when I meet him. That way if he is a bad guy and captures me, I can always ransom myself. Does this world have WD-40? If not, I’ll be extra safe.
