273 – one short of the non-trump delegates needed to bring it to a convention by the way.
Hahahaha! So I’m not the only one with political fever! 😛 😛 😛 😀

@jadamae Thanks very much. That would be fantastilicious. I’m having trouble with some application stuff, so I’ll just send it as a pdf if that’s ok.

I’m having a terribly fun time. I’m nearing the climax and end and I’m working on one of the absolute best characterization moments for my MC.

Aha. That’s what gave me that idea. 😀 I’ll have to write it one day.

*breathes a sigh of relief only to catch it again as I continued reading* @overcomer
I don’t blame your sister for hating them. Oh, that would have been awful!!!! I’m glad she’s ok though. Mine wasn’t that bad. I ended up riding into a prickly bush to miss it *ouch* and made my brother drop the mud pie he was making with my scream. 😛 The snake…[Read more] -

I got 234 words written. How’d you go @daeus? It was a bit of a struggle at first but thankfully is becoming much smoother. 😀 *licks ice-cream off spoon. Delicious*

@daeus sorry I’m late. 😀 Yes I’m alive. Glad to hear you are too. Hidey hi ho and a bucket of raspberries??? Hmm…I’ll have ice cream instead.

@bluejay You alive? I am. I guess that means we should write. Hidey hi ho and a bucket of raspberries. Tag me if you’re in.

Haha @kate-flournoy! No, you’re not creepy. Studying people is quite fascinating. 😛

Oh boy! @rolena-hatfield I guess I should brush up and medical terms. *Hunts around for doctoring books; starts reading. Raises eyebrow “I’m really not understanding any of this.”*
I guess I had better stick to easy things such as colds and stomach aches. 😀 -

@daeus just curious… did you end up entering the Patrick Henry College short story contest?

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Favorites? in the forum Book Discussions 10 years, 5 months ago
Yes @hope, I can definitely see that. Both books were written to make a strong point, not to make you feel good, therefore both plots were highly, highly realistic. If they’d been written just so they could be realistic it wouldn’t have packed as much of a punch, but since they’re realistic to seal the message they’re very powerful.
*ahem*…[Read more]

@gretald @rolena-hatfield YES. That, and trying to read people’s faces. I know, I’m so creepy… but I love trying to guess what people are thinking by studying their expressions.

Greta replied to the topic Writing Advice in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years, 5 months ago
@rolena-hatfield, yes! Watching and listening to people is great for your writing…and not to mention fun. I’d love to just sit at a coffee shop for a couple hours and watch people coming in and out and listen to their conversations. 🙂

Rolena Hatfield replied to the topic Writing Advice in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years, 5 months ago
Eat yogurt covered grapes and ice cream while you write. Seriously it’s very inspiring. Unless you have allergies.
On a more serious note… Watching people is very helpful to writing. How do they really react in situations, hands motions, nervous habits etc.?

@bluejay That’s okay. I’ll just tell you what I’m feeling and you can tell me what’s wrong with me! And if you HAVE to look down my throat I guess we could do a video chat :p

@kate-flournoy No, and I think I’m actually the one who posted about that. Silly me. I’m not quite sure why. I think I was supposed to write about someone who had really touched me or something – and while I bump into people all the time, I’m not a very sentimental person, like at all. I can relate really well with sentimental people, but I just…[Read more]
Yes, I did @Daeus… and am currently in the process of being driven crazy waiting for the results. 😛 They’re supposed to come out this month.
Are you sure we’re thinking of the same contest? ‘Cuz the theme for my age-group for this contest was simply write a story about perseverance through failure.
???
@kate-flournoy Oooooh, yeah…that one. Yeah, I don’t know what I was thinking about. Sort term memory loss. That’s probably why I didn’t enter actually.
Hope you do well on the contest. I read last year’s winner and I’m sure you could do that good.
I guess you didn’t enter the Bunyan fiction contest, or did you? Anyway, I’m waiting for that…[Read more]
Yay! Nothing like a mutual commiseration party! 😀
I didn’t enter the Bunyan fiction contest— I figured my nerves would be shot enough waiting for the results of one contest, let alone two. 😛 I do wish you the best of luck with your entry, though. 🙂 Let me know how you did.
Tag thingy @Daeus
@kate-flournoy Neves. They do that to you. (It’s not nice really. Someone should teach them manners.) Think of it this way though: At least we got all the ground covered.
@Daeus Twue. Vewy Twue. 😉
