@dekreel Yeah. Homeschool is great and I love it. But my epic procrastination skills get in the way…
A: I got an A in procrastination.
B: What else did you do?
A: Procrastination!
B: Oooohh…I am doing it! Isn’t that crazy! 😀
But I’m going off to bed now. Good night. Sorry I couldn’t stay longer. 🙁 -

@catwing Yeah, same here. Trying to finish an essay that was due two months ago. *cringes* That’s the trouble with being homeschooled: PROCRASTINATION.
Are you doing NaNoWriMo?

I thought there was. The writing in ROF wasn’t bad but I thought it was rather lackluster compared to QOD. It wasn’t as funny and wasn’t really distinctive. Its an older work isn’t it? I’d say your voice has probably just improved.
I’m sure its been established that Courageous needs whipping into shape himself and is probably not capable…[Read more]

I liked it and I definitely think it has potential but I think it would need to be rewritten. The writing didn’t seem as good as in QoD and the characters didn’t seem as well developed, but maybe that’s just because its shorter.
Courageous’s court, was what I meant. It basically goes round on the ideals of courtly love.
Yes, I suppose so. I…[Read more]

Well, I don’t think Juqing would like Courageous and he certainly wouldn’t like Courageous court. Whether Courageous would like Juqing or not, I’m not sure.
And yes, I think Juqing would definitely bully Courageous, and Courageous would probably run away to Antarctica.

I requested access 😀
I thought we came to the conclusion that he would be bullied horribly. But, the poor boy is bullied anyhow, so its just a matter of whether it would be better or worse.

There’s exceptions to every rule. But the time jumps are less noticeable in the book than the movie/musical because there’s so much extra stuff in there.
Honestly, I think its one of those tools that can be used very well and effectively, but often isn’t.
Most certainly 🙂

Huh, they’re all out of whack. That’s really weird.
Yeah, I think there would be people who wouldn’t enjoy your style, but once I got into it I really enjoyed it.
I have seen people do those time jumps in published books, personally I’ve never really liked it, but that could just be me. Still, I think you can make it work.

I was about to say I lived in the future, but two hours probably isn’t enough to have read a completed first draft, so I’ll just say nothing at all.
I think its pretty good. It did take me a while to get used to your writing style, but that’s probably just what I’m used to reading/writing. I’m not entirely sure about the massive jump in…[Read more]
