@anne-of-lothlorien @jess Oh, I really liked Ever After! Especially with Leonardo. He was great comic relief.

@jess Yes, I really liked Big Hero 6 too, but the handling of themes may be a bit iffy for me. That’s my opinion so. And there’s Beyond the Mask again. 🙁

@Jess oh yes, no argument there— Big Hero 6 was awesome. Much better than Frozen. But Frozen was still very enjoyable.

@kate-flournoy It’s a lonely life we unicorns live….though it is fun telling people that only 0.5% of the population have my personality type. 🙂
@sleepwalkingmk Well I’m glad I’m not the only one who has sarcastic character scape-goats. 🙂 Writing is a pretty handy thing for coping though. When a lot of things are happening in my life (and…[Read more]

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic The Mind of a Writer in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years ago
@Ethryndal first of all just let me say this is really weird, because INTJ females are supposed to be as rare as unicorns, but we have at least three on this site— you, @Hope, and @Jess. KP must be a magnet for all things rare and fascinating. 😛
And second of all, I honestly don’t know. If I’m going through an intense emotional phase (of any…[Read more]

Sorry guys. I’m going to start limiting my time on KP to one day a week. I’m on here far too regularly and it’s causing a bit of friction. I’m going to miss you all, but please feel free to still tag me as I will reply when I can.

@anne-of-lothlorien, So glad you love it here as much as I do! 🙂 I too have been blessed with a clean, Christian loving environment here on KP so thank you very much to everyone who makes it happen.

Ignore my spelling errors. 🙁 I’m terrible at checking my own writing.

*puts on thinking cap* Hrmmm… well, the first game that comes to mind is Blindman’s Bluff. Then there’s a similar but less ‘dangerous’ game that doesn’t have a name, where ‘It’ stands blindfolded in the middle of the room and one player at a time tries to sneak past (and around) him without getting touched.
And honestly I have zero head for…[Read more]-
Thanks for the other game suggestions. Yes, I’ve played that once before and it was lots of fun. @kate-flournoy

Do you mean the theme would be spiritual blindness, and you’d just play physically ‘blind’ games, or would the theme be physical blindness (probably not, but I want to make sure I get what you’re saying. 😉 )?
And ditto to what Kate said about fundraising…sorry. 😛 Have some sort of craft sale, maybe? *helpless shrug*-
No @emma-flournoy The theme is about physical blindness as that is what the fundraiser would be for. Helping raise money for tablets that stop River Blindness.
-
@bluejay, so sorry, no ideas at the moment, but I’ll let you know if I think of something. 🙂
-
@clairec No worries. Please do. 🙂
-
-
Okay. That sounds good. 🙂 What’s River Blindness?
-
@emma-flournoy River Blindness is cause by black flies that live down near the river. So people go do to get water and…how much information would you like??? It’s pretty graphic.
-
Ooh… all right, that’s good.
😛
I hope your fundraiser goes well if you do it.

Hmmm…. that’s a great thing to raise funds for, @bluejay! Who will you be giving the money to? (i.e. Compassion, Samaritan’s Purse, a missionary at your church, etc.) Well, the only games I can think of that haven’t already been suggested would be searching through something like rice, blindfolded, to find a small object, like a marble, pebble,…[Read more]
-
@julia-r The funds will be going to CBM.
Hey, I like that game. You say you’ve done similar games before, can you tell me how much rice would you put in the dish (how big is the dish) and are they allowed to use their hands?-
I would get a really big storage container (like utility bins) and fill it with as much rice as you can. Rice is cheap, so it shouldn’t be a cost issue. And yes, you can use your hands! It’s fun to rely only on touch to find things.
Another similar suggestion (this might appeal more to younger folks) is to put the pieces of a 6-piece puzzle in the…[Read more]

@bluejay Would it be indoors or outdoors? I know two games that raise money, but they don’t have a thing to do with blindness. You know the type of game where you try to throw a small object either into a basket or through a small hole in a board or to knock something down? You could charge 25 or 50 cents per toss. The other game is quite a bit…[Read more]

@sarah-h It would be indoors. Thank you SO much for all the wonderful ideas. I have decided not to run the fundraiser so a bit because I am so busy with prier commitments. But the ideas are wonderful and will be in a file for future reference.

So,this is for songs that you’ve written, and when you want to put the words.
Here’s some lyrics to a song I just wrote. Unfortunately, you can’t hear me sing it, which is too bad, because I flatter myself I do it well, but here’s the words. This is the first one I’ve done, so it might sound weird to you. And don’t read it like a poem, cause then…[Read more] -
Anne of Lothlorien started the topic Little Peoples in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years ago
No, I’m not talking to you. I’m talking about little children. I have a lot of trouble writing little kids. The youngest I’ve ever written extensively about is an 11 year old. That may seem weird cause I have four younger siblings age 11 to 2, but it’s hard!
So, if you guys have any advice, information, how you write little people, their thought…[Read more] -

@Bluejay I’ll miss you as well, but I’m glad to see you’re prioritizing your time. I’ll be praying.
Thank you @kate-flournoy. The prayers are really appreciated.
@bluejay
Aww, I’m sorry to hear that, but I totally understand. As awesome as KP is, it can be distracting sometimes (at least for me), which is, by the way, a me problem, not a KP problem (Hey! That rhymed). So I totally understand where you are coming from. I don’t know if you all have noticed, but I haven’t been on here as much lately…[Read more]
So poetic, @gretald. You should write a poem. Thank you for the words of encouragement. And the prayers. 🙂
@bluejay Aw, thanks! No poeticism intended. 😛 😉
Sorry to hear that. @bluejay. You will be missed. And I will definitely be praying for you!
@bluejay We will miss you!!! 🙂
@Bluejay I guess we’ll all have to super watchful about getting hurt now, with our doctor away. 😉
I’m definitely going to pray for you, and I hope the friction settles down. 😛 I’m sure it was hard decide this, but good for you. *thumbs up*
I totally understand this, @bluejay. You’ll be in my prayers!
Sounds tough, but if it’s the right thing, go for it. I’d be happy to pray for you.
