@That_Writer_Girl_99 hey, no rush. Take your time. 😉

@That_Writer_Girl_99 awesome! *grins* I have to say she was remarkably easy to capture on the first try. I think it’s because I already had a very firm grasp of her personality due to her well-executed voice in the snippet you shared. 😉

And— I originally saw Tam with reddish blonde hair, but now that you mention that… I can totally see it. 😀

@Daeus amen. 🙂

@emma-flournoy Thanks 😀

It gives me a joy just to read that. I need to remember it more often. The problem is that I forget my purpose in life, and so any sort of failure seems like a defeat, but really, I’m just here as a tool, so I just need to do my best and God will make it worth while.

@Christi-Eaton been there, done that. 😀

@Dragon-Snapper wow— really? That’s… thank you! That’s a beautiful thing to say. 😀 Truth of it is, a lot of my characters are really messed up people living really messed up lives, but you’re right— even with people like that, I firmly believe there’s always hope. *grins* I guess that sort of came through unconsciously.

@Christi-Eaton I love her! I don’t have anyone that fits her, but I love the sense of personality you achieved. 😀

@That_Writer_Girl_99 Kara. 🙂 Anywhere close?

@That_Writer_Girl_99 I’m sorry. I should have realized you were getting overwhelmed and slowed down a bit. When I get excited it can be a bit like drinking from a water-hose. 😛 If it starts happening again just tell me. I can slow down. 😉

Of course we can talk about Kara.

But first let me answer your question about plot vs. character. Which…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 loneliness is not fun. I’ll certainly be praying for you.
@Daeus you too. I’m sure you’re doing great, and I mean that cuz I’ve seen what you can do.

@that_writer_girl_99 I really feel for you.

I’d actually appreciate prayer along the same lines myself. Not that I’m an introvert, but I’ve been having spells of depression recently. My problem is that I like to have my life planned out and know where I’m going, but as a writer that just doesn’t work. It’s hard to figure out what my next steps…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper Well, it’s really not very sciencey. Mostly historical revisionism and knights fighting gunmen and stuff.

@dragon-snapper Time travel story

@graciegirl @jane-maree @dragon-snapper @jess 946! My best in several months.

@jess @dragon-snapper @graciegirl @winter-rose @that_writer_girl_99 @jane-maree I’m planning to write till 9.

@That_Writer_Girl_99 yep! I shall be graduating this year. *grins**salutes her fellow soon-to-be-graduate*

I struggle with outlining too. But I’m going to try it in earnest with my next project to see if I can speed up some. 😛

That is a good question, yes… where do you want your protagonist to end up? Hm. I don’t wanna put words into your…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 I’d be happy to try. 😀

@I-J-Anderson thank you… and WOW. *shakes head* I just… no words. 😛

@Christi-Eaton thanks. 😀 I like trying to capture light… that’s my thing. I really love light. And textures. Sometimes I think I’m getting there. XD

@Aysia-Serene ha! It took me a good long while of practice and observation, that’s how. 😉

@Dragon-Snapper *chokes*

@That_Writer_Girl_99 that’s very much up to you. Some do it completely in their head, some write outlines longer than the work itself. The key thing is to figure out where your MC starts, where you want her by the end, and how you’re going to get her there. Follow the five plot point thingy using your MCs arc as the thing…[Read more]

@ClaireC *raises hand* My vocal range actually has the high end of the soprano and the low end of the mezzosoprano, so I’m not sure what you’d technically call me. 😉 And yes, I do sing… opera? I’m not sure I’d strictly call it opera, but I have several classical songs that I love that could be categorized like that. Voi Che Sapete, for example.…[Read more]
