@dekreel Neither have I seen those movies.  So @seekjustice, it’s really okay.  There are two of us to prove you can survive without them. 🙂

@dekreel Congrats 🙂 🙂 Can’t wait to read it!

@dekreel I think it’s from 2010, and it’s finished for the moment. Oh, well that makes sense!

*gasp* *faints* How have you survived here???

No, I haven’t. I should do that!

@dekreel Being a Whovian I thought you would have seen Sherlock too! aren’t/weren’t they directed or produced by Steven Moffat and somebody Gatiss? Martin Freeman plays Dr Watson and Bilbo Baggins in The Hobbit.

ah no worries. they aren’t for everyone!

I think my character looks something like Idina Menzel, after some consideration. Except…[Read more]

@rochellaine

He’s probably right unfortunately 🙂

haha, yes there’s hardly any dialogue in Les Miserables (actually why I like it! Because there aren’t confusing gaps between the songs, like in other musicals).

I like Hugh Jackman (He’s Australian, one must be patriotic!)  too, just as an actor though. I’ve never been that impressed with his…[Read more]

@dekreel

I like a lot of musical actors–Ramin Karimloo, Sierra Boggess, Michael Crawford, Derek Klena, Christy Altomare, Caroline O’Connor, James Barbour, Samantha Barks, Jeremy Jordan, Ben Fankhauser and a load more. In movies, I like Eddie Redmayne, Hugh Jackman, Martin Freeman and Benedict Cumberbatch (Sherlock is one of my favourite tv…[Read more]

@seekjustice My grandfather used to say “Common sense is very uncommon among the common people.”

Oh, my dad keeps telling me he wants to show me Les Miserables,  I love musicals, but I like them with dialogue.  I do like Hugh Jackman, though, because of his Broadway career.  (Oklahoma!)

@dekreel Who is this mysterious actor no one knows the name of?

@rochellaine

I realised that after I’d written it, but I figured everyone would have enough common sense to work out what I meant 😛

Yeah, I really don’t feel like a modern teen most of the time. Someone will babble on about this bloke who is this and that and who’s goodlooking….and I’ll be clueless. I do know a few though, like I know ALL the…[Read more]

@dekreel If you read up a little bit it will make sense!

Especially one that’s just normal looking. I’m not asking too much am I?

Yep! A Tale of Two Cities

@seekjustice You do realize that could mean you are basing a character off of Jane Austen? 🙂

Same!! About the actors, I mean.  I really know the names of about five modern actors.  But I like watching old 50s tv shows and saying, “Oh, I recognize that guest star.  He played the soda jerk in such-and-such movie!” 🙂  I think that actually mak…[Read more]

@dekreel

Yay! I’m glad!! I’m currently doing some characterisations for my novel and scanning pinterest for good models (it’s super hard to find thirty-year-old women on Pinterest!)

We’ve been discussing basing characters off real people and Jane Austen,

Oh and recognising actors by their chins….

@dekreel Um, I’m actually not sure. *hides* It’s been a while since I read it

Oh, Hooray!  I finally got around the quirks in my gmail account and have a google document with the opening of my book!

So please read it and tell me if after reading this much you would keep reading.  Or something like that.

Right now I’m not looking for grammar and editing issues, but just trying to make sure that it’s a good idea to c…[Read more]

@dekreel *phew*. Agreed….

I probably have some old (probably better, actually) manga art stashed away somewhere…I might be able to post it..? (If anyone wants…)

@dekreel Thanks! Oh… sorry! Traditional manga reads right to left, top to bottom. Hope that helps!

I learned how to draw eyes from one of my friends. Wait, no. *grins* I actually learned manga from that friend! 😀

@jenwriter17 @dekreel Hmm… do you like these? Honestly, I’m not sure how well they turned out… all of the faces look to oval-like and the hands look weird.

Okay, I’ve got a little bit of clarification to do. 🙂  Mostly because I took a lot of time off from writing for finals last month, and am just getting back into it, so I had kind of forgotten a couple of the plans I had made for this book.  Therefore, when I wrote the synopsis I missed a few things.

@seekjustice and @jenwriter17 This is not a h…[Read more]

@dekreel I love the Canterbury Tales. I studied a number of the tales in college and have taught different stories from it in my English classes. I do need to second @sleepwalkingmk, though, and say that you need to be careful about which you read since some are pretty raunchy. I’d be happy to give you recommendations on which to read or which to…[Read more]

@dekreel I so excited! I’m glad you figured out the plot. 😉 Go Dekreel!

@dekreel if you name a character Peri, I think Dot would be a cute last name. 😀 Maybe its too cheesey for your taste though.
