Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Ren in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 7 months ago
@Dragon-Snapper Lord of the Rings. It’s not even close. Star Wars may have Han Solo and the greatest villain ever, but LotR has Faramir and Samwise Gamgee.
@Bluejay oh dear, I may have read your post wrong— I thought you said you cried over ‘every little thing‘, not over very little. I’m sorry. Which did you mean?
@Emma-Flournoy just because…[Read more]

Okay, quick question on the topic of Star Wars.
Which do you all prefer: Star Wars or Lord of the Rings?

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Ren in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 7 months ago
@Emma-Flournoy as I said, you do have a smidgen of empathy. But for the most part when you feel for someone, you’re happy because they’re happy, or sad because they’re sad. That’s sympathy. Empathy is when you actually feel their sorrow. It’s not your emotions responding to theirs— it’s your feeling intuition picking up on their emotions and…[Read more]

How are my beta-readers going? Is it terrible?

I need an English last name. (please don’t anyone suggest Brown or Smith.) @emma-flournoy @kate-flournoy @daeus @dragon-snapper @hope @jess @everyone. 🙂
-
Um… heh. 😛 Do you mean like British, or American English? Are you looking for Dickens names— Prescott, Trumbull, Aspinall, Tulkinghorn, Summerson, Copperfield? Or more modern sorts? Like… like… Brown. Or Smith. 😛
-
*glares at you* British, but I’m looking at the names below and I think I’ve got what I need. Thank you. 🙂 @kate-flournoy
-
-
-
I’ve a list of last names; here are a few: Walker, Holt, Wright, Underwood, Townsend, Pent, Lambert, Hill, Lee, Webster, Frost…
-
Johnson-Charleson-Bryson-Weston- any name ending with ‘son’

Thanks @hope and @dragon-snapper. These will help a lot. 🙂

Okay, looks like I’m too late. 😉 Good luck.

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Ren in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 7 months ago
@Emma-Flournoy well… sort of. Not really. You are predominantly ISFJ, therefore you are not predominantly an empath. You have a smidgen of empathy, (and enough ENFJness to be harsh with yourself when you don’t progress) but for the most part you have sympathy and are ISFJ all through.
The difference between empathy and sympathy is one letter—…[Read more] -
Emma Flournoy replied to the topic Ren in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 7 months ago
So Kate, is it due to being an empath that I cringe and feel like disabling all my sensors when seeing and hearing all the chopping and slicing in too-graphic battle scenes? (Or even some other, not graphic, things. Like Mike Wasowski slamming himself into a sitting position on a metal bar to make Boo laugh—that part makes me seriously want to…[Read more]

Corissa Maiden of Praise replied to the topic Sherlock Holmes in the forum Book Discussions 9 years, 7 months ago
@emma-flournoy It’s so hard to pick the “best”! 😉 And I simply can’t pick a favorite. Some people say that “The Hound of the Baskervilles” is the best, but it is a little creepy (especially if you have a good imagination 😉 ) Maybe you should read “The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes,” which is a collection of some of his short stories and will…[Read more]

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Ren in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 7 months ago
Yessss… *rubs handses* More questions, precious. In case you can’t tell, this is all quite fascinating to me.
*glares* Us.
*nervous laugh* We meant us, precious.That’s actually a very good point about you being forward-looking, and is more specific to your ‘problem’ than my little sermon on the general differences in the empath group. 😛 So—…[Read more]

@emma-flournoy The Hound of the Baskervilles is my very favorite one. I think it’s the best, but I haven’t read all of them.

I have a 15 page story that I’m giving a few people for critiquing and so I thought you might be interested…?
And I understand about not bragging when you are trying to tell someone that you can do it well. 🙂 @emma-flournoy-
*happy nod* (happy that you’d consider me!)
Since it’s not very long I should have time, but I’m gonna ask Mom, and get back with you about it tomorrow. All good?
🙂-
That’s fine. 🙂 I’ll wait. And FYI you don’t need to tag me for me to receive and email notification. When we post here, it just let’s me know. But let’s make sure. I’m not going to tag you, do you get a notification…?
-
Huh. That’s helpful. I did not know that. (Obviously.)
Yes, I did get a notification—it’s doing that ’cause we’re having our own conversation, or why? -
I think it is something to do with the fact that we are under your profile. So maybe it is linking that with your email. I don’t know. But there you have it folks… 🙂

@emma-flournoy Thank you for more suggestions. It is hard to tell the difference between a nursery tale and a fairy tale, but I’ll see how I go.

I’m working on it. I have a pretty full schedule right now, so it might be a couple more weeks. (I have a mid-term next Tuesday, a 5k the following Saturday, several musical pieces for church, props to prepare for a play, so yeah. I beta read for relaxation in my spare time. 😉 ) And no, it isn’t terrible; what I’ve read so far has been excellent!…[Read more]
Haha Ah yes, the different spelling.
I just sent you an email, @bluejay . 🙂
Thanks @overcomer I’ve replied. 😉
Of course it’s not terrible!
I think I’m not quite halfway through yet; we’re going to be EXTREMELY busy this week, so it may be in the next couple weeks that I can get it back to you. 🙂
Thank you @emma-flournoy 🙂
