I’m pretty sure I’ve had pizza with eggs on it too, but I’m not sure. I don’t know if a lot of people do it, but our family used to have a pancakes and icecream for dinner night once in a blue moon.
Maybe she just wasn’t as much into romance? I don’t remember her being as much of a romantic, but its been years since I read the…[Read more]

My family and I were just discussing we have inhibiting societal rules like not eating pizza for breakfast and Mum said they probably had breakfast pizza in America, so I thought I’d asked.
A character based on the real Laura Ingalls would be really cool! And that’s a massive pet peeve of mine as well. Girls a…[Read more]

Is it true that in America you guys have breakfast pizza??? If so, my whole view of American society has been changed for the better.
Oh yes, the average modern romance, even the Christian ones, tend to be….sketchy.
Its all right, I love listening to rants. Even though the rant wasn’t directed at me, and it was about a romance novel. 😛

You find our flirting attempts hilarious???
Oh, I remember that 😀 It was the reason I added the second window scene 😛
True…still, I think it works. Maybe.
Yep, me too. And those memories tend to torment me forever. 🙂

@valtmy, yeah, my characters are never going to flirt. Probably the main reason is that I am going to try and not write in romance *glares at two characters in book 2 of a series I have just started*.
@seekjustice, I’m pretty sure the same thing happens to me, however I can’t write about it because I’m not informed until later where the…[Read more]

My predicament exactly. Except that I don’t have a lot of guy friends, so the guys I talk to tend to be casual acquaintances from youth group or friends of friends, which makes it even more awkward. when I talk to people I tend to tease them a lot, which is fine for girl friends, but as soon as its a guy then apparently you’re flirting with…[Read more]

@alia I’d love to read this part of your book (are you wanting us to leave comments?), but sadly due to busy life and other beta jobs, I won’t be able to read the whole thing. 🙁

@seekjustice, right? most of my friends are guys, and according to my two gal friends most of the time I talk to a guy is considered flirting by society, but for the life of me I can’t see where the friendly conversation ends and the flirtation begins.

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #18 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 2 months ago
I know right? on the rare occasions I do talk to a young man of a similar age to myself, I’ll say something and then internally go “Oh wait, was that flirting?? If so, I should probably stop because I’m terrible at it and this is super awkward…”

Alia replied to the topic Writers' Corner #18 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 2 months ago
@seekjustice, good job Zac!
honestly, sometimes being a writer is hard because in order for us to write something like flirting well, we actually have to go and do it ourselves, which just ends up being awkward

@seekjustice, well Zac still flirted better than I can. Which isn’t saying much because A. I don’t flirt, and B. I’m sure I would be terrible at it. But hey! At least Zac is better than someone
-
SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #18 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 2 months ago
Don’t blame Zac. It’s just that I’m really bad at flirting.
And yes, it would have been really interesting (except my sister. of course, lives in the same house as me, so I wouldn’t dare). Also, one of the cons I had written down for the point of killing Zac was: “He wouldn’t get to be with Neva”. ?????? Why would Zac want to be w…[Read more]

@rochellaine, yeah, I guess that is part of it. Probably the main reason I don’t ship them because it wasn’t til near the end of book two that I got the impression that Justice made the faith his own and not simply thinking believing in God was all that mattered.
Ooh, and I agree with what you said to @valtmy about the whole leader thing.

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #18 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 2 months ago
Justice is only one revolutionary leader out of a large number, even if that wasn’t necessarily made clear in the first draft. Also, the revolutionary group existed before Justice came along. He just took charge because he’s the bossy sort. And can you imagine Jonas leading a revolution?
That’s true. But I thought that would be too ob…[Read more]

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #18 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 2 months ago
Fair enough. And yes, Enjolras is very much a noble character with a noble revolution, whereas Justice most definitely is not.
And yes, it would have been very interesting. I’m sure @rochellaine wishes I’d done it. 😀
haha… 😀 Can you imagine Justice saving rich people from the guillotine? 😛 Its not him.

@rochellaine, honestly, if a guy did that to me I’d find it pretty darn romantic, but like I said, there’s just something about those two. I don’t even know what it is, but for some reason I do not ship them. No clue why.
