Yeah, at least the no-clothes-ness isn’t expounded on, but the very fact is annoying.
That’s it. Pfifltriggi is a hard word to remember. 😛
I cringe for you. :/ At least that probably means my memory wasn’t exaggerating… hardly a comforting thought.
Poor Weston. I don’t remember everything that happened in that book, but I think I saw him…[Read more] -

I’ve only ever seen TFA, but I want to see the rest. And I have had episodes 1-6 quoted to me by my brother. (every line, went for a whole day.) And the music. The music was played at the right times. So, I’ve heard the whole lot?
HAAAA! XD He must’ve seen it a few times.

@leumeister no pressure at all on replying or anything, just making sure this gets through. My notification stuffs have been not-faithful lately… 😛 Hence: @leumeister.

Emma Flournoy replied to the topic Synopsis Help in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 8 years, 6 months ago
@daeus I agree about the last sentence/paragraph thing (and most of what the others said about rewording throughout). I don’t think the whole thing should be dumped, but particularly just the last sentence sounds sort of pushy and/or excluding or something along those lines. If you were to cut it, it might need replacing with something else, but I…[Read more]

@raevynstar Welcome to KP! Where do you live?
Yes, humans. Those are the biggest monsters possible for a good story!
That is a huge truth. Humans will ALWAYS be more interesting to read about than any kind of creature. Whether they’re good or bad. 😛

I thought that would freak you out. XD No, we have been friends, for a loooong time—but I accidentally canceled our friendship yesterday when I thought I was clicking on something else, so promptly requested it again.

Emma Flournoy replied to the topic Salutations, writers. I'm Xonos Darkgrate. in the forum Start HERE 8 years, 6 months ago
@xonos-darkgrate Heh, you’re welcome! By some sort of blessing or curse, I can’t help noticing all the punctuation-ish things, so it wasn’t a problem. 🙂 The comma is slightly mis/overused sometimes, but I totally understand how easy it is to just go with it when you’re on a roll. Best wishes for the rest of the book!

@xonos-darkgrate I agree, that was really well done. Very good at drawing the reader in, too. And I love the beginning quote by the Jake of Jacks guy.
I have a few things to point out, but they’re mostly just structural/punctuation stuff. The first paragraph, after it says The City of Cards, is mixing past and present tense. I can see how it…[Read more]

And speaking of which, how do you put a picture there? I keep seeing profiles with pictures there but haven’t been able to figure out how you put ’em up.
-
@emma-flournoy on the top right hand corner of your screen, you should see a black bar with your profile pic on it that says ‘Howdy, Emma Flournoy’. Hover over it, go down to ‘Profile,’ and hover. The bottom option will be ‘Change Cover Image’. When you click it, it will take you to a square you can upload an image from.

@emma-flournoy I just saw your friend request (and accepted it of course.) I just still cannot believe we haven’t been friends for a year!!!! That is SO WIERD how did I miss that????
-
@kina-lamb eh boy… 😛
Okay. There’s no way to directly upload an image from your computer, only insert one via url. So you need it on a webpage of sorts in order to get that url. What I do is upload it to google, then click ‘view image’. It will give you the picture by itself in a black surrounding screen. Take the url from the address bar, copy…[Read more] -

@kina-lamb If you see that I canceled our friendship, that’s something I totally did not mean to do. XD I acidentally did it while not realizing I wasn’t clicking what I meant to, and so promptly requested it again.

For a bit, I honestly thought it was, but then chapter 9. I mean, it was a wee bit creepy before, but then it went from whoa to WHOA! in no time at all. 😛
Well, he’s tempting the Lady to live in the Fixed Land, saying that this commandment, Maleldil secretly wants to have broken in order for the Lady to be separate from him (in a…[Read more]
Ohhh…no, I remember that now. Igh.
That’s a sound plan. *claps you on the shoulder* Dads are good for help. 😉 Especially book-ish dads, which yours sounds to be.
And hey, it’s been a nice conversation with you here, despite any strange subject material. 😛
Haha, yeah. I wouldn’t say my dad is especially book-ish, he likes certain books (James Herriot, Master and Commander, Hornblower, Jane Austin, P. G. Wodehouse). And he likes audio books a lot, but I think he just listens to what I listed. 😛
Yes, it has been a good conversation. I’m actually glad you told me about your thoughts on Perelandra…[Read more]
That’s funny, with all those books/authors you mentioned, I’ve watched more screen adaptations of any of ’em than read the books. 😀 All very good. Your dad has good taste.
Heh. Well, that’s good to know. 😛
Ditto. We love All Creatures, and we enjoyed the Jeeves and Wooster series, and I quite liked Master and Commander, and what I’ve seen of Hornblower, I believe I’d like that too. But none of them quite seem like something I’d enjoy reading so much as watching (I’ve read one James Herriot book).
So, it’s official, last night I gave Perelandra to…[Read more]
Oho, I bet you’ll like Hornblower. *gleeful grin* If you like M&C already…
I’ve only read the first Hornblower book and wasn’t impressed, but the mini-series is one of our favoritest things.
Very good. *firm nod* Hope you’ll/they’ll not have a hard time coming to a satisfactory descision, whatever it be. 😉
@emma-flournoy *thinking I’d already replied to this* Yeah, I’d seen a little bit of the mini-series and liked the look of it.
You know what really got me in Perelandra? When he started calling Weston the Un-man. *shudders*
AGH YES, I’d forgotten about that. *shudders with you* Yeah.
I don’t what it was about it, but that was the real deal-breaker for me.
C.r.e.e.p.y.
So, what are you reading now? I’m still in Boxen, but I’m nearly finished, and after that I’m going to read Animal Farm (I know nothing about it – do you know if it’s any good?)
