Oh! They’re great 🙂 LARPing rules are frustrating, though.

Ohhhh, I like those! B)

I’m doing a lot of brainstorming right now, like you 🙂 Mostly for a dystopian from the POV of two brothers.

Ah, that makes sense. Happens to me, too, when I’m working a lot.

Gotcha 😛 Ever made a LARPing sword?

Yay, mysteries! Those are tough >_>

Awwww…:P What names do you have?

Percy Jackson! YESH! *highfives*

What kinda stuff are ya brainstorming?

Well, killed or badly injured a few, I suppose… it scared the others off, for some reason!

Also, I was pronouncing “NAAFSI” as “NAFF-Sigh” as opposed to “N-A-A-F-S-I” or “NAFF-See”. I personally like the acronym, so if you do decide to keep it, then maybe you could just have a character(s) refer to “NAAFSI” in dialogue as “Naff-Sigh” or “Sigh” or “Naff” or something. Perhaps the lower-case letters or abbreviations would help people get…[Read more]

Wow! I really like this! I like this genre, and the mystery, and the situation (no parents; no friends, being watched and monitored, etc). I also can personally relate to the MC, and she feels real, which is very good.

I was thinking, though, if it might not be better to open the story with the scene where she is talking to her parents. This is…[Read more]

Good to see you on the forum, Blaine!

World-building definitely is one of the most enjoyable parts of writing. I’m in the middle of my most ambitious world-building/plot planning project yet. Since I have so little time for writing, I figured I would just plan out every single little detail before-hand (a little at a time) and then try and write…[Read more]

Yeah, I think I’m probably the only one here who has public schooled as much as homeschooled. 😛

Good to see you on the forum, Sage!

Hey, Erin! Good to see you on the forum!

I really need to learn guitar or piano. Or both. Just one of those things I keep meaning to do but don’t. >_< I never liked the learning music growing up because all the songs you had to play were like “Mary Had a Little Lamb” and “Hot Cross Buns” and I didn’t like them and they didn’t seem very manly. XD…[Read more]

Some things that came to mind for me:

Did they send criminals to New Zealand? I know they were sent to Australia, but I have never heard of New Zealand. That’s interesting!

Also, if she’s being shipped there as a criminal…why is there a mother with a baby on board too? I’m also curious as to why she became a thief.

And if you’re not sure…[Read more]

Yeah, music is awesome!

And it’s nice knowing someone listens to my music besides me. Haha!

Heyo, Sage! No wrong way to do it! (Unless, I dunno, you lie and say you’re a bright blue flamingo who longs to be an astronaut or something. We do not endorse lying *nod*)

I was homeschooled, too! Actually, I think a lot of us were XD

Have any favorite books? What kind of writing projects are you working on?

Eeeeeeepic B) I love a good dragon story ^_^
Oh, nice! New characters are always fun!

True! XD

Ah, yeah, that makes sense :/ Why do you think you’re disconnected?

Ha! Yeah, I like a wide variety of music, too…I like Owl City, and some Selah, and a few by The Afters 🙂

Oh, that’s awesome!!! 😀 Where in CA will you go?
