The Impossible Girl

@daughteroftheking That’s good. I wrote a revolution once and that went for a very long time and was quite emotionally draining. 🙁 Maybe I should take up writing for little kids.

@daughteroftheking

That’s good. I hate those prolonged ones that force you to keep writing for page after page…those ones are terrible.

@rochellaine

I just read that article actually. And I agree with it. My mum bought me the full set years ago and I read a few of them, but I couldn’t ever like them. Elsie and I are just too different and she’s suffocatingly perfect. I also didn’t like the treatment of the slaves as something less than human. And goodness, her father is so…[Read more]

@daugtheroftheking

I…um…dislike writing fight scenes. Good luck.

Currently just working on some ideas for a short story I’m going to write and doing some research and reading Rochellaine’s story.

@daughteroftheking

Hello there! What are you working on?

@rochellaine

I think it’s fine now 😛 It was rather humorous though.

I’m doing research for a short story I’m writing and I’m also reading about Elsie Dinsmore. Have you ever read the Elsie Dinsmore books?

I would like to read it 🙂

@rochellaine @ariel-ashira

Hello! I didn’t get your earlier message, but I’m here now. I’m struggling with Pinterest in a rather embarrassing fight, in which an inappropriate pin appears and I attempt to ask Pinterest not to show me such things but my hand has gone numb from lying on top of it and as such end up saving said pin to my boards…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira

Thank you! I’m eighteen now 🙂

@ariel-ashira 🙂 It was mine.

@jenwriter17 Bye

@catwing @valtmy Me too. Talk to you later 😀

@catwing

Though I may be biased. 😛

@catwing

Oh yes, Rain’s awesome, isn’t she?

@jenwriter17 😛 I understand! Time zones are such annoying things 😀

@jenwriter17 @catwing

I’ll have to go soon (birthday lunch with my grandad).

And no worries, Catwing 😀 I’m sure it’ll turn out fine.

@valtmy

It’s going very well (though it’s rather emotionally exhausting). I’m picking out a few common themes that most of the readers have said need working on, as well as a few things that only a few people have highlighted. The general consensus is that Justice is an immature brat (which I tend to agree with) and that Chessy is rather…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 @valtmy

Oh yes, I am here, for a bit! I’m just reading over some beta comments 😀

@jenwriter17

Yay for #20!!

@rochellaine

Sorry, my computer ran out of battery, but I’m back again!

Yes, I definitely base characters on people! Usually not purposefully though. I usually just realise, oh! So and so is a lot like so and so.

But I love when those disclaimers are in historical fiction novels, where the characters sometimes are real people.

@rochellaine

Maybe authors should start putting disclaimers in the front of their books:

We do not condone the behaviours of any character that seems slightly antagonistic, and nor we do take any responsibility for any of their evil deeds.

I know, poor Curt didn’t deserve anything that I forced him to endure.

Yes, it’s such an entertaining way…[Read more]

@rochellaine

People don’t actually expect us to take responsibility for our bad characters, do they?

Well, of course Curt did none of those things. Because he was a small angel. He definitely fell into the disabled angelic character trope that I see so many people complaining about 😛
