@Daeus @kate-flournoy Wow, the first Elf. I’m not certain whether to feel extremely proud, or a little lonely…:)
@bluejay Yes, I write fantasy. There’s so much to this world that I figure I might as well spend all my time figuring out another, completely unreal one. But hey, nothing in the imagination is fake, right? And hopefully, the more I…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy Yeah, I’ve heard that dragon legends come from dinosaurs. Ken Ham really promotes that and I believe it. But I think @sarah-h is right in that most New Age cults do believe in special “relationships” with supernatural beings. Eragon and his dragon’s relationship sounds a lot like the relationship of New Age cults in that they can…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy Oh my goodness. I have fire eyes. *grins*
@corissa-maiden-of-praise I haven’t asked my characters that in particular, but here’s a similar encounter I recorded from one of our conversations:
Me: Is there a specific thing you wanted to talk to me about?
Naomi: No, I’m just here for the sake of being annoying.
Me: I hate how much like…[Read more] -

@Kate-Flournoy Well, “normal” is a relative term… 😛
Yeah, that’s kind of happened to me before. I talk about my characters every once in a while, and about whether or not so and so should die or if I want this person’s best friend to be courting this person’s brother or a different random guy, or whether that character should die or just lose…[Read more]

@emma-flournoy I’m not sure it is going to be all right. He’s DEAD. *weeps harder* Just wait till you read it. I’ll have you all crying buckets of tears. At least I hope. I mean it would be dreadful if Ernst died and you didn’t shed even one tear.
@kate-flournoy Thanks for the warm welcome. I’m not sure I like the real world. You know it’s kinda…[Read more] -

@kate-flournoy Well, I’m not sure I’ve ever said it like that, but I was weeping yesterday because I had just killed one of my characters. I hated doing it, but he kinda just made it happen. It was who he was. When I had finished writing it, I wanted to delete that part and bring him back, but I’m not sure Enrst would be too pleased with me. Oh…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy *hands you WD-40* Here, spray this all over yourself. He’ll like you then.
I’m really sorry about that, by the way. If you want me to have a talk with him, I can.

@Kate-Flournoy I’m sorry, I don’t quite understand the question… you mean you quote your characters and other people don’t get it because the book isn’t published yet?
Here’s a question @anne-of-lothlorien requested I ask, word for word.
“Have you ever asked your imaginary counterpart in your mind why you talk to him/her? I did the other day,…[Read more]

Yep. Youtube, Emma.
@kate-flournoy I have? This is an existential crisis moment. But he disliked me a little? That’s. Absolutely. Terrible! *hides in a hole and covers top* What if I gave him youtube. Then he could watch the king of random and oh! he would be so happy and would no doubt love me for it. Right? Right?
Right?

That diagnosis would align well with my past symptoms. I do find myself paying attention to the story structure and themes a bit more than character dichotomy and relationship ties.

@ethryndal
Greetings, elf. It is not often we meet one of the fair people. In fact, we’ve not had an elf for a millennia, not that I would know. I’m a dragonling, but not quite as big as Smaug and not as small as @kate-flournoy. No, I’m about the size of the average Night Fury (and that’s saying something, seeing as there is only one Night Fury)…[Read more] -
Daeus replied to the topic The Mind of a Writer in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 10 months ago
@kate-flournoy I’ll make sure to be armed with some WD-40 when I meet him. That way if he is a bad guy and captures me, I can always ransom myself. Does this world have WD-40? If not, I’ll be extra safe.

@kate-flournoy Yeah. Drills and saws and wires gears and stuff. Mechanic. Engineer. Inventor. Knows how anything works without having ever seen it before and with a blindfold on and half his brain tied behind his back.

@kate-flournoy ISTP!!!!
I get those letters all confused in my head.
Yes, that would be incredibly shocking if he was an INFP, wouldn’t it? heh heh heh.

Emma Flournoy replied to the topic The Mind of a Writer in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 10 months ago
@Daeus Oops. *sheepish grin* Shows you again how much I know. And I thought Conrad was an INFP at first! Shouldn’t have second guessed myself. And whoops—Jakin, not Jerin. And yes! Deron. I knew that.
@Kate-Flournoy ISFJ and ENFJ are in the same category. 😀 Maybe you saw the ISTJ in the black hole section… much as I would like to have black…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy I was thinking about pattern, but feel does make more sense.
So if Emma is a mix, what are here eyes?

Daeus replied to the topic The Mind of a Writer in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 10 months ago
@kate-flournoy Is that the actual shape of the iris (or whatever it’s called) or is that the “feel” of the eye?

Daeus replied to the topic The Mind of a Writer in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 10 months ago
@kate-flournoy You know, you’re right about that eye thing. I never noticed it before, but between the known Js and Ps in my family and those few I know the types for outside my family, I think that seems to fit. Might not remember one or two’s eyes perfectly, but it seems true. It’s a simple trick too, which I like.
My little brother’s eyes are…[Read more]
