@ariel-ashira If by “the movie” you mean the Errol Flynn and Olivia de Havilland one, then yes.  If not, no. 😛  But yes, that’s actually the reason it caught my eye, I had seen the movie and I though, “Wow!  I had no idea the movie was based on a book!!  Cool!” 😉  So anyway, I have only read a few chapters, but it’s really good so far.

Did you…[Read more]

@alia I’m here. 🙂

@seekjustice Second the above question: Are you still here?

I wasn’t on for the past two days either because we were at a conference where my parents were speaking and I was helping out with the website, the booth, and the little kids. 😉  But we just got home and I’m going to try and get some writing done tonight.

@seekjustice @alia @daughteroftheking Well I’m gonna have to leave. May your writing prosper! 😉

@seekjustice Dickens you say? Alrighty, I’ll take a look at more of his writing, thank you 🙂

@alia Helooooo! 😀

@seekjustice Oh I know! Some chords just seem nearly impossible to reach! Also, it’s painful to my precious writing fingertips 😉

@daughteroftheking so many times I try to explain writer things to non-writers, and they’re just like “um, what?” 😉

@daughteroftheking haha, yeah a non-writer would never believe that we have conversations with people we made up.

Now that I say that it sounds just the teensiest bit crazy 😛 😛 😛

I’m editing my sci-fi dystopian. Nearing the end!

@seekjustice Ooh guitar? I didn’t know you played guitar 🙂 yeah I’d love if you could stay and chat!

@daughteroftheking Hi! 😉 While Seekjustice is serenading us with guitar music, what are you working on?

@ariel-ashira @seekjustice @alia @rochellaine @kaya-young @skredder @daughteroftheking Anyone on?

@leumeister That is a really cool design!!  I like the back view(or second picture, whatever it’s supposed to be) best – probably because of the lights. 😉  My brother has a huge collection of the Star Trek miniature ships, and it reminds me of those, though of course it’s very different from most of them.

My sci-fi stories are about time t…[Read more]

@kaya-young I’ve never read those, so…?????

maybe someone else will know @seekjustice @catwng @dekreel

@kaya-young ooh awesome! yes, do let us know 😉 is it a fantasy?

I like your new profile pic 🙂

@kaya-young *shivers at the realization of what I’ve done* Please forgive me if it isn’t good!  I’ve never read it. 😮

At least I’ve read others by him, though. 😀  But do let me know whether it’s good or not.  Even though it’s fantasy I might get up the courage to read it sometime. 😉

@princessfoo alrighty then, discuss away! 😉

I’m reading Bell Mountain, by Lee Duigon. here are some thoughts on it so far: the author uses omniscient POV, which I never liked. It feels a little distant. Also, I think the story could benefit from more description and worldbuilding.

@seekjustice aw 🙁 I hope you’ll be feeling better soon. See ya tomorrow <3

@kaya-young Oh, and if you have an iphone you can get any gutenberg books on ibooks, or on any kindle app you can get them, but I don’t think you can get them on an actual kindle.  I used to read them on my iphone and sometimes on a kindle app, but now I mostly read them directly off the website just on my computer.

You can probably get…[Read more]

@kaya-young An amazing place to read free books online is gutenberg.org.  Project Gutenberg is a website run by volunteers who put public domain books online for people to read freely and easily.  I use it all the time, and right now am in the middle of a book there called Captain Blood, by Rafael Sabatini. (It’s about a pirate. 😉 )

The books I…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira No, not at all! 🙂  It’s kind of hard to explain all the pathways a decision travels through my head before becoming final, sorry.  Let me see if I can try one more time.

I think the biggest reason was I spent a lot of time on the forums and, like Dekreel said when she went on her hiatus, I could have been using that time to do o…[Read more]
