My thoughts exactly, though I do like his name a lot. Liliom is a pretty cool name, though I feel it should have been a girls name. Also, it’s weird that his real name is consistently spelt differently. Well, I’ll definitely get around to those soon(ish)!
I read it the other month, it was definitely weird and freaky to some extent,…[Read more]

@dekreel *is jealous because Dekreel’s book has 75,000 names in it and mine only has 40,000*
Definitely, fire away!

@seekjustice Yes! I do have a baby book! It has 75,000+ names in it. I love it so much. I have been binge-reading the whole thing and writing down my favorites. So far I’m still in the girls, down to the Gs. Want me to give you a sample of some of my favorites?

Welcome to the great naming discussion!! I love names too, names are awesome. The question is: do you own a baby name book?

@rochellaine Oh yeah! You do have 940 posts! WOW, that means you’ll be an Eccentric Mentor soon. I wonder if it’s a record…

I do! And I honestly can say it’s the most useful piece of writing equipment I own, it’s an awesome book. I got it from a library booksale several years ago.
Yeah, that’s probably where my love of the name came from too. The novella I’m editing at the moment for my blog serial story actually has the main character called Wolfe, but…[Read more]

@seekjustice @rochellaine I guess I’ll join you guys. Partially because I haven’t come back to the KPA in days, and also because YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT NAMES! I LOVE NAMES!

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #14 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 6 months ago
I like R names too! *whips out the baby names book which is kept at the end of the bed in case of emergency character namings* Brace yourself.
I super love the names Roy and Rowan, I don’t know why, they’re just awesome. Also, Ren, Raidon, Ransome, Ramin, Raven, Raymond, Rivers, Rolf, Ryu….etc, etc.
In other names that don’t…[Read more]

I’m honoured that my exceeding wit has brought you much pleasure. All right, then I shall. 😀 I’ve been collecting some prompts to put on the page.

@rochellaine I guess K does have a nice ring to it, I like the name too. it wasn’t even meant to be shortened to Kai, it just happened. I think actually, his name being Malakai at all and being shortened to Kai can be attributed to Catwing…maybe? I was going to call him Malachi, but I thought it sounded really old fashioned, and Catwing liked…[Read more]

@alia See, that I do not understand at all. But anyway, we can put aside our differences and be twins. 😀
Yes, I usually am. I might see you tomorrow?
Well, the best way to make a rebellion not cliché is to kill absolutely everyone and for it to fail miserably, because that never happens in YA literature.

Alia replied to the topic Writers' Corner #14 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 6 months ago
@rochellaine, well, @seekjustice might be the person I need since I don’t know if I want the rebellion to win or fail yet.
@catwing, how many scoops of raspberry ice-cream do you want for the names of the books???

I’m 23 words away from my goal for tonight, and its technically time for bed…why do these things happen to me??
@seekjustice, @rochellaine, I must sign off now. are y’all usually on every night at this time? because I think I will be on tomorrow night. but anyways, talk to y’all later

@seekjustice, I still don’t know how you can like Frodo…I like Gollum better than Frodo. And I don’t like Gollum. Actually, they might be tied…
So you’re the Aussie version of me? Fantastic
I know, but it was worth a shot, kinda

she’s nine. we adopted her about six years ago. So her filter is non-existent. I’m 16. how old are you?

I think that, apart from our disagreements over Legolas and Frodo, we could be the same person, because my music intake consists solely of musicals and Casting Crowns.
Ahah, no, it’s not me. @rochellaine and I live (literally) half a world away, across many seas and distant shores. That sounded very poetic.

Alia replied to the topic Writers' Corner #14 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 6 months ago
okay, so my WIP is a kinda sorta fantasy novel that is turning really cliché-y, its about this guy that runs off to join a rebellion against the evil priests. if that isn’t a cliché, I don’t know what is. any ideas to make it original?
@rochellaine, its the one I’ve told you about before

I’ve never properly fainted before, but my brother did once and I tried to catch him and ended up lying on top of him. That was where the inspiration for Quillon being super romantic and catching Sapphire and ending up on the floor came from.
I definitely will give Quillon and Kai some father/son time (what is it about the name…[Read more]
