Ooh, that is so exciting!!!

There’s actually been quite a bit that has been going on in my life. Some of the highlights are probably 1. Iv’e started dating a really great guy, 2. a friend of mine is getting married soon, 3. I got to see my niece last month for the second time in her 6 months of being born, and 4. I am officially…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Hey! I’m doing fairly well. How about yourself? Are you still in law school?

@rochellaine

are you still here??? Please tell me you’re still here

This is such a cool topic! I’m always looking to add new vocalists for my songs!

I sing by necessity but I don’t really consider myself a singer since I don’t particularly like my voice and don’t think that I’m very good. Here’s an example. 

Hence why I’m always trying to find new vocalists.

@rochellaine

Yeah, I did end up listening to them and I liked them!

Prince of Egypt is very good. I enjoyed the movie a lot and the soundtrack for the Broadway also sounds really good.

Ah yes, I did read Frog and Toad as a early reader. I remember being very unimpressed, but my attitude towards kids books has softened as of late, so maybe I…[Read more]

@valtmy

Probably very awkward and cringy, to be quite honest.

@rochellaine

No actually. I don’t think I’ve found a really enjoyable new musical in months 🙁 Right now, I’m listening to ATOTC, because I haven’t listened to that in ages and had forgotten how much I loved it. I’ve also really enjoyed listening to The Prince of Egypt movie soundtrack and the Broadway release too. What about you?

@rochellaine

I feel like you and me both are like “Oh, I was doing some research and I discovered this cool fact and so now I’ve completely changed this whole aspect of my story”. 😛 Does sound like a good idea though! I like it.

😛

@rochellaine

Yes, an actual planned romance 😛

William Dampier is definitely worth a read if you ever get time. He wrote several books as well, and was one of the first documented “discoverers” of Australia. He was quite a fascinating figure.

How’s your various writings going?

@valtmy

Hello!

@rochellaine

Hello! I’ve missed you lately 😀

My current book is a retelling of the life of pirate/botanist/navigator William Dampier, and Jeanne Baret, the botanist who was the first woman to circumnavigate the globe. To be honest, I’ve enjoyed the intense amounts of research I’ve done more than the actual book writing so far, but its really…[Read more]

@rochellaine @valtmy

Either of you around?

I’m gonna head out for a while. I might be back later

I’m still here is anyone has just shown up

@seekjustice, @valtmy, (though you two are probably asleep…)

@rochellaine, @jenwriter17, @selah-chelyah, @ariel-ashira @dekreel, @catwing, anyone else

I’m writing, listening to The Clockmaker’s Daughter, and procrastinating. anyone want to join?

I’m doing some work on my novel/watching youtube. Anyone wish to join?

@jenwriter17 @rochellaine @alia @dekreel @valtmy

@leon-Fleming that’s very good of you. Likewise, your apology is also accepted. Yes, some forms of poetry can be quite hideous.

Ha! Well if my arguing was of some use than I am glad. I also find it is easier to figure out your own thoughts on things if you write them down.

No, I am not on Story Embers.

@Leon-Fleming upon further reflection, I realize I must apologize. I have been arguing for the sake of it and not because I have something constructive to say. And you are correct that I have been stating opinion as fact. You clearly have me beat on your knowledge of poetry and I really don’t have a leg to stand on so I concede to you. Yes, all…[Read more]

@Leon-Fleming well I said it probably wasn’t the correct definition. Ok so that clears things up a bit. Personally, I still wouldn’t class it as poetry but until I become president of some world wide literary organization something-or-other, there isn’t much I can do about it. XD

I really think that we are saying basically the same things, but…[Read more]

@Leon-Fleming ha! Well that’s true in a sense although I don’t often find occasion to talk about Truffala Trees or Sneeds or Rare Who Roast Beast. XD

When I say prose I am referring to anything classed as poetry without rhyme. Haiku’s, for example. I am sure I am probably giving things a broader coverage than they deserve but that’s how I…[Read more]
