@seekjustice 😀

Yes, but there are other jobs where it is used, such as engineering or accounting.  However, I doubt I’ll use more than basic arithmetic, and my chemistry knowledge is confined to baking. 😉

I see.  Well, I certainly can’t help you there, since I have no idea what the “main plot points” even are supposed to be. 😛

I need to g…[Read more]

@seekjustice “Tears, hiccuping, general chaos…” perfect description.  I find myself agreeing, at this point. 😛

So, I guess that means I do okay?  Well, with my comic short stories and poems, at least. 😉  I do hope to write a good sad scene sometime, though.  But, like you said, you’d probably faint from shock if I ever did such a thing… :P…[Read more]

@seekjustice Haha, I don’t think so. 😛

Hi!!  Finally a direct conversation between us!  I wonder how long it has been?  Anyway, I won’t be on for much longer, but I’m not quite done yet so, I am still here at present.

Ah, sorry. 😉  I’ll ask you the question I ask everyone: Do you prefer decimals or fractions?  I adore fractions and abhor deci…[Read more]

There’s no point in writing unless we can make people sob uncontrollably

I guess there’s no point in any of my writing, in that case. 😛  Will you be disappointed when I tell you I don’t sob uncontrollably when reading your stuff?  …I just weep uncontrollably… 😉

Oh, I miss you too!!!  Are you on now?  I can be on for a lit…[Read more]

@jenwriter17

Bye!

@seekjustice

That much trouble?

@jenwriter17

Haha I didn’t read through it very thoroughly though. Just enough to make some comments and answer her questions.

@catwing

Hi!

@jenwriter17

I may have time for a while… Not writing though and I’ve already reviewed @seekjustice‘s book 😛

I suppose I need to tag someone now…

@seekjustice  Make a one-sentence story out of this picture:

Ohh, thanks for bringing this topic back! I loved it!

Lessee. I’ll do one for that girl with her arms spread out…

“And though she didn’t know it, though He was invisible, He was holding her by the hands like a baby learning to walk.”

How’s that? 😛

@seekjustice The spy museum had lots of really cool spy gadgets that felt like they were right out of James Bond. 😀  There was a glove pistol, and umbrella gun, a bugged shoe (radio in the heel) and stuff like that.  Also a lot of stories of spies.  There was one guy who created a whole fake spy network, fooling the enemy into thinking it was re…[Read more]

@seekjustice

Yes, that’s a good idea. First decide what political and economic system you are trying to critique for your dystopia. I’m thinking capitalism/oligarchy based on what I’ve read so far (neither of which would justify the tech regression and stagnation).

Especially for the police force. The rich have every incentive so supply ample…[Read more]

@seekjustice

Oh. There wasn’t much elaboration on the Great Collapse though so I didn’t notice any nods towards to the Depression and didn’t make the connection but I’m sort of seeing it now…?

But how long ago was the Collapse? I understand if there’s technological regression in the immediate aftermath and the next decade or so. But the story…[Read more]

@jenwriter17

Bye!

@seekjustice

Good to know I’m not the only one that thinks so then. But worldbuilding is very crucial (one could say it is the heart of) for a dystopian story. And any changes you make (esp in the tech level) can cause ramifications in your plot (e.g. suddenly the conflict or problem doesn’t make sense because it can be s…[Read more]

@seekjustice

Haha hope you can make sense of my blubbering rants! 😛

@jenwriter17

Are you one of the beta readers as well?

@catwing

Bye!

@seekjustice @dekreel @jenwriter17

I’m on if any of you still are.

@seekjustice

Just sent you the email 😀

@dekreel

Hey!

@seekjustice  I guess I’ll try the Google Doc then. 🙂

@seekjustice  Great, thanks.

By the way, sorry I haven’t been reading your book lately. I’ve just been unsure about which document I need to read from. (The one in the email or the Google doc.) Hopefully I’ll start up again soon…

Which do you think I should use, the Google doc or the email doc?

@seekjustice  I’m doing fine.

May I ask what time is it in your region of Australia right now? Just so I know when you’re awake and asleep. If you don’t want to answer though, that’s fine.

You know you’re a writer when you pace back and forth in your room repeating your character’s name in different accents, trying to find a good accent for your world.
