@jenwriter17, sounds good

@jenwriter17, I agree with @devastate-lasting, though maybe 10-20. Really it depends on how many people you can add and still have it close knit.

(I would love to be a part of this, and I might know some others who would be interested)

I’m attempting to get some work done, anyone want to join me?

@rochellaine

😀

Goodnight!

@rochellaine

Yeah, they’ve got special laws in place now, because shops were selling things super cheaply (think 90% off sorta things) and people were actually getting crushed and killed.

That’s just…bad.

Nope, this is an attempt at writing a historical/fantasy sort of thing.

I am planning a contemporary short story/novella though, for a competition.

@rochellaine

Maybe we’re just less excited about sales? We tend to have sales at Valentines, Australia Day, Easter, Christmas and Boxing Day (otherwise known as the sale in which people literally die).

Though I’ve heard about Black Friday and that doesn’t sound like a walk in the park either.

I gave up on that. Instead I’m working on rewriting…[Read more]

@rochellaine

We have Labour Day here, but it’s not till October, and people only like it because it’s a long weekend 😛 We certainly don’t have special sales, as it seems you do in American.

Yes I did have a really good time! No, we haven’t really talked since then 😀

@rochellaine How’s things?

@rochellaine

Are you here still?

@rochellaine @alia @ariel-ashira @valtmy Anyone around?

@ariel-ashira

I thought so. I just remember someone posting here that their sister had a concussion. I’ll keep praying.

@ariel-ashira I seem to recall someone else’s sister getting a concussion and I thought maybe it was yours as well? Either that or @alia ‘s. I’ll pray 🙂 Concussions are horrible things 🙁

@valtmy I’ll definitely be praying. I understand the stress of life and how debilitating it can be.

@devastate-landing I’m so sorry for your loss. I’ll be…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Aw, you’re probably not here anymore. I started a map for my new novel and got really caught up in it.

@valtmy Bye!

@rochellaine are you around today? I’ve had a very weird Sunday and I’m not in routine, but if you’re here, I’d love to chat about randomness.

@valtmy I’ve only been to Melbourne the once, and I mostly spent my time in Carlton, but it was really cool. I’d love to go back again and spend more time there.

There’s a lot of cool things in Canberra. Especially if you’re interested in museums. The National museum is there, the National Archives, the War Memorial (one of my favourite…[Read more]

@valtmy

Ah no, it isn’t. But we also live half an hour out of town. All those things together mean we have to get up pretty early. Still, I think it’s a pretty good time, and we usually get there at the time we’re meant to, which is more than I can say for most of the other things I do 😛

I live near Canberra, about an hour away. So it’s a fair…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira

Exactly right 😉

@valtmy The service starts at 10am but my family always gets there quite a bit earlier because my dad is on the council and various members of my family are involved in greeting people at the door, doing morning tea and that sort of thing. Currently its the only service our church has.

@valtmy

I usually do go to church on Sunday morning but we got home from Melbourne yesterday night, and it was a long drive, so we arranged that we wouldn’t need to go to church this morning. Its put my whole schedule out of whack though 😛

@ariel-ashira We are the women of the future, though Valtmy is…two hours behind me or something like that 🙂

@valtmy

I know 🙂

Ah yes, the infamous Ned Kelly…

Australia has many more interesting things than him.

@valtmy

Well the worldbuilding for Stars is going…fine. The worldbuilding for my new project is going much, much better. It’s a fantasy based in a sort of Australian fantasy setting involving assassinations and revolutions and interesting dancing.

That sounds very vague, I’m sorry 🙂
