Ah, I thought that may have been the case. Guess it fits with the rest of the backstory.

But I suppose you’ll be working on NaNo instead of SFI now. 😛

@rochellaine

Haha stupid fugitive characters right?

I suppose a way to justify it would be to have the government ban/restrict people from going abroad. So going to another country would be just very risky. He would definitely be flagged out and arrested during the border checks.

And maybe he did relocate to another city (where the Verde family…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Oh, and regarding the Sapphire and Caderousse interaction thing… It does not make sense for her to be on the lookout for some pretense to arrest Jean. In this Fugitive!Jean situation, she should already think that Jean is guilty of some crime and she would be going straight to arrest him once she’s found him. No pretense necessary.…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I agree a letter would be the most appropriate form of communication in that situation. It’s not about that. It’s that letters appear to be the only form of communication available in this supposedly futuristic society. Even when people are talking about safe, non-revolutionary stuff (which granted, the characters don’t often do but…[Read more]

@seekjustice

Oh, speaking of the odd lifestyle of the Verde family, it randomly occurred to me why you might be struggling with wordbuilding more compared to other dystopian writers.

Most dystopias use an average Joe type of character as a POV to show how life is like for an average person in the dystopian society. But since your POV characters…[Read more]

@seekjustice

Re Sapphire’s mother: If Jean is a fugitive, I do think that the circumstances of her leaving her husband should be different and not so simple. But hey, if all else fails you can always just say that she is dead and thus won’t be complicating the issue to increase your parent body count. 😛

I’m still amused by how dependent this…[Read more]

@seekjustice

You’re probably asleep now so I’ll just post my response here for you to see later.

Yes, there’s something really off about the notifications for some reason.

Oh wow the thought that there’s someone out there who is eagerly waiting for the next part of QOD is really terrifying. 😛

Anyway, regarding your idea for Jean’s…[Read more]

@seekjustice

Oh no! At this rate, I won’t be able to read Wattle Fire for a long while!

But I suppose I have no right to complain, considering my own progress with QOD. 😛

But what problems are you pondering? I am curious to know. You got feedback from all your betas already right?

@seekjustice

Hey sorry I disappeared. Was at a home visit. It’s getting late for you but are you still around? 😛

@seekjustice @rochellaine @catwing

My characters’ names are all not in English and I have so many characters… So I always turn off grammar and spelling check. 😛

@seekjustice @rochellaine @catwing

I’ll need to go out now so I won’t be able to word war again but I should still be able to chat. 🙂

@seekjustice @rochellaine @catwing

308 words.

@seekjustice

How are you intending to procure the tears of traumatized readers to make your potion if you go down this path??

I might be able to join the word war in a moment.

@seekjustice

You’ve really gone soft, if you’re basing your decision to kill your character in the future on whether you get attached. 😛

@rochellaine

Haha I think things will get slightly better for Myeongwol for now. How’s Bathshua?

@catwing

Good to know that we are not encouraging bad habits on KP. 😛

@seekjustice @rochellaine @catwing

Hi! Sorry for some reason I was not getting the messages.

Perhaps SeekJustice has transferred her ruthlessness to me as well. 😛

@seekjustice @rochellaine @jenwriter17 @catwing

Hey I’ll be around a while.

@jenwriter17  Good talking to you! See you later. 🙂

@jenwriter17  Maybe I’ll try that! Sounds interesting.

Yeah, Minecraft is cool! I haven’t really built much yet; I’m mostly relying on a village for supplies and a place to live. I enjoy fighting the monsters (except the skeletons).

These days, I’m mostly drawing fanart for another game I like. It’s pretty fun. 😛

Aye, I relate. All too well.…[Read more]

@jenwriter17  That’s good! I don’t think I could reach even five thousand words. . .  😛 Life is too hectic.

I’ve been okay. My motivation to work is non-existent and I’ve barely gotten anything done, so it’s been kind of stressful. Other than that, well. . . Nothing huge is happening. I’m drawing a lot, I started playing Minecraft. . . And m…[Read more]

@jenwriter17  Hello! Yep, I’m still on. Are you doing NaNo? (I’m not. . .)

Hey, you’re only ten posts away from two thousand! You’re almost a Chosen One!
