Oh yes, I’ve been meaning to watch/listen to West Side Story. I’ll have to see if our library has a DVD of it. 😀 I’ll listen to it anyway, if I get time 😀 I feel I’ve heard of Russ Tamblyn before, but I can’t think why.

@seekjustice It’s “Gee Officer Krupke” from West Side Story.  West Side Story is a Romeo and Juliet retelling set among the New York street gangs during the 60s.  So the boys in the song have New York accents, like the Newsies, and the song is complaining about the adult authority figures, like Newsies.  It’s a bit different though.  Hope you lik…[Read more]

What’s it called? I’ll be going into town today, so I’ll probably be able to get some time at the library. 😀 And because of that, I’ll probably be going very soon.

@seekjustice Oh my goodness!  I was just watching a song clip (that we’ve seen before) with my sister and laughing over it with her, but it really reminded me of Newsies!  Since you love Newsies so much, I think there’s a chance you might like it. 😉  Are you able to watch YouTube today?

So many good friends leaving.

@rochellaine Welcome! *bows*

@valtmy For me, I tend to concentrate on plot and characters in the first draft and who cares whether the words make any sense or not (as I’ve been reading through my draft I sometimes stop and stare at the ridiculous things I’ve written 😛 ). In the second draft, I embellish the plot and make sure the characters are…[Read more]

@seekjustice

Ooh yeah that feeling sucks 🙁

Since I’ve never really completed a novel-length project like this before, how different would you say your first and second drafts are in terms of the writing? I think the reason why I am progressing so slowly is because I am pressuring myself to get the prose all right the first time so I want to put…[Read more]

@seekjustice @valtmy I have returned! 😀

@rochellaine

Still slaving away at my editing. I’m getting closer to the end but I had to kill Rain again and that was upsetting 😢

I sympathise. I’ve felt like that all week. I’ve not done well at all.

@seekjustice

Hey so what are you working on?

I am reviewing what I’ve managed to write on my phone yesterday and it’s… 😅 Hope today will be better.

@rochellaine @valtmy

I arrive!

@rochellaine

Hey. I’m on now 🙂

@seekjustice Ok, tag me. 🙂

@rochellaine

I’ll be on soon 🙂

@alia Didn’t see this until now.  I’ll be praying for you!

@alia Well, I got 346 words, but I’m afraid I’ll have to delete a lot of them.  I was definitely not on a roll, and am very unhappy with what I wrote. 🙁

Oh well, see you later!

@seekjustice @valtmy Are either of you ready to be on yet?

@rochellaine, I got 287, not my best.

I’ve got to be signing off, and unless you got distracted there is no way that I beat you

@rochellaine, alrighty

@alia Sorry, my email isn’t working so I’m not getting quick updates.  Fifteen minutes it is!
