@rochellaine Yeah, distractions are definitely hard to deal with. It doesn’t make it any better that all my writing is done on my laptop. *glares at Pinterest and Youtube* *as I’m listening to music on Youtube* 😛 I know I could try handwriting, but that’s way too slow for me. and with all my other hobbies that use my hands a lot, adding…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 Slowly, slowly!  My sister came in a few days ago and said, “I was just thinking, I haven’t read your book in a while, so maybe I can read the new parts now?”  And I said, “There’s nothing new.  I’ve written, like, a few paragraphs.” 🙁  Part of the problem is that I just don’t make myself sit down and write, though.  I get dist…[Read more]

@rochellaine yeah I’m definitely the opposite. 😉 but I have to get it done before July 20th, so having a deadline is kinda giving me the push i need. 🙂

how is your western going?

@jenwriter17 Haha, I’m sorry.  I was telling SeekJustice a couple of days ago that the editing is the easiest part for me.  It’s the writing that’s much harder!  It can take me a couple of hours to edit something that took me several days to write.  Sounds like you have the opposite problem. 😛

@daughteroftheking good idea about the antagonist; i can tend to not put enough work in the antagonist.

She has one best friend (Christy), but since she’s major-super introverted, she doesn’t really have any more. I was thinking of making her bestie the villain, but then it seemed kinda obvious.

I think at first she will hate having the powers,…[Read more]

@rochellaine Yes, poor Zac….was trying not to cry while I’m at my aunt’s house 😉

Editing’s going okay. This is how I’m feeling though:

the book looks so much worse when I go back to edit 🙁

@rochellaine cool ideas! 😀

yes, I agree. God created us all equal and skin color doesn’t make anyone better or worse than someone else. I like your description suggestions. It’s the ‘charcoal skin’ part that people are super sensitive about I think. Skin descriptions that might be just fine people would think offensive. I’m not saying ‘charcoal…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 Yes!  Seriously, you kept raving about Justice, but I didn’t like him in the first book because he was too emotionless, and while I like him better in this book, he’s now an emotional wreck, basically, and I much prefer Zac.  SeekJustice says if Quillon came alive she’d marry him, but it’d have to be Zac for me. 😛

Ah, yes.  And my…[Read more]

@rochellaine Just saw your comment ‘tell Zac I will marry him’! haha, seriously though, I feel the same. 😛

Just reached the end of everything. Man, that book was emotionally draining… but so. good.

@jenwriter17 I think I’d had a nap that afternoon, and when I have a really long nap I don’t get tired at night.  Therefore it’s not a very good idea for me to take a nap, usually… 😛

Of course he is!  Zac is the best character out of both books. 😉

At the end of the document there are comments from a couple of the readers, which were pretty f…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira I think I’ve only read three of them, and since they’re stand-alone there might be a few that I would like.  First-off, the thing that till make the most sense to you is I don’t like darkness.  And his stories are full of that.

Now, about the specific stories.  One was advocating the right to kill one person to save many.  That is…[Read more]

@rochellaine WHAT 4 AM?! O.O

I love Zac!!!!!! Lemme guess, he’s your favorite too? 😛

@ariel-ashira Haha!  I do get tired sometimes, you know. 😉

@jenwriter17 Nope. 😛  I think the lastest we’ve gone to was 4:00 a.m. one time. 😮

How’s it going?  Who’s your favorite character now that you’re almost done with the book?  (Give you three guesses on mine…)

@ariel-ashira 🙁 bye

@rochellaine Hi! 😀 Seekjustice and I missed you during our late night chat 😉 (it wasn’t nearly as late as some of your chats 🙂 )

@ariel-ashira reading the last part of Seekjustice’s book, then I plan to do more editing.

@jenwriter17 @ariel-ashira Halloo!

@ariel-ashira Yay! what are you working on?

@jenwriter17 Here’s a thought, her mad scienctist uncle could have given her parents super powers. The bad guys found out he was experimenting with giving people powers, but don’t know he succeeded. The uncle knowing what they would do if they had the powers pretends to be far behind on his creation. He keeps all his notes in codes so the bad guy…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira @alia @kaya-young @skredder @rochellaine Anyone on?
