*grins* ENFP twin, meet INFP double. *bows* @LifeOfKatie @GracieGirl

@That_Writer_Girl_99 sure thing.

@Winter-Rose you’ve got it. 😉

@jessi-rae, Welcome to the bestiest place on the web. Watch out for @kate_flourney, she’s a dragon in disguise and not to be trusted.

I love fairy tale re-tellings. I’m actually working on a Rumpelstiltskin one. With a bit of Sleeping Beauty, Repunzel, and Beauty and the Beast mixed in.

What are your favorite book series? Any Tolkien mixed in there?

@LifeofKatie @GracieGirl so is no one seriously going to mention that you guys are apparently twins??? Hello? LOOK AT YOUR PICTURES. THEY’RE IDENTICAL. 😛

@CK4always my tag is @Kate-Flournoy. Tag me if you need me; I’m the forum happiness director, so it’s my job to make sure people can find their way around and get their questions answered. 😉

@Jessi-Rae *rests hands on top of sword and grins* Good luck with the conquering… this place tends to work by contraries though. It can’t be conquered. The harder you try the more it conquers you.

Do you know your MBTI type? Are you an INFP? We have a lot of those around here… and incidentally, I’m one. 😉

Hey! I’m doing the Rooglewood…[Read more]

@salome01w4g I’d never heard about Egoscue before. That seems pretty awesome!

Exercises certainly help me. At least the right ones do. I had an old chiropractor recommend an exercise that really didn’t help any. I’ve got two I do now though, each three times a day, and they really help. I’m probably about 80% better.

@SeekJustice Dickens’ A Christmas Carol, Little Dorrit, and Nicholas Nickleby (though that one is creepy on the villain side even for Dickens). Also Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451, which though not technically a classic, should be one. 😛

@salome01w4g By “cut on you,” do you mean perform surgery? That’s not necessarily true. My chiropractor gave me an x-ray because he was pretty sure there was something skeletally wrong with me, but he believes you should only get surgery if you have no other options. The idea behind an x-ray is that it can help identify your root problem. Oils and…[Read more]

@seekjustice My four favorite classic works are Victor Hugo’s Les Miserables, Louisa May Alcott’s Little Women, Dicken’s Great Expectations, and Jane Austen’s Emma.

@seekjustice

Divine Comedy is in a tier unto itself in my book, but be aware that it takes a couple readings to fully get the book. I recommend Anthony Esolen’s translation of the work. After that, my Romantic/Realist triad of novels I like to recommend are Crime & Punishment, Pride & Prejudice, and Frankenstein.

@salome01w4g Have you gotten an x-ray?

@seekjustice

1. The Count of Monte Cristo
2. A Tale of Two Cities
3. Ben-Hur, Cry the beloved country, anything by G.K.Chesterton.

If you’ve read the lord of the rings, you should read the Silmarillion too.

Oh, and definitely read crime and punishment! You may like The death of Ivan Ilych as well.

There are more, but those are enough to start with.

@salome01w4g I can totally sympathize. I used to have bad back problems. I still have some pain, but I’m mostly recovered. Feeling discomfort after 30 minutes isn’t abnormal, but if you’re in pain from sitting that long, it sounds like you have back issues. I find that those ball chairs are more comfortable than normal chairs and standing is…[Read more]

@salome01w4g I worked up to it.

@dragon-snapper @jane-maree @winter-rose @graciegirl @ethryndal @salome01w4g I’ll be writing till 8:15-8:30

@Ethryndal yep, pretty much.

@CK4always my favorite color is any shade of red. 😉 Particularly scarlet, though crimson is close second.
