@rochellaine No, but I’d love to hear it one day! 😉

Yes, I do sing around the house a lot. I had actually just heard something about relaxing helping with higher notes; thank you for the reminder. 😉 And I so know what you mean by the high screaming thing people do! I don’t like it either.

I don’t know what my exact range is, but it’s probably…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 You don’t even know what my voice sounds like! 😛

Um, let’s see…

Well, I would say sing all the time.  Around the house, while doing your work, while driving, whatever.  Practice does make perfect, and your voice will get stronger with use.  You probably already do this, though. 😉

The one thing that really bugs me about mo…[Read more]

@rochellaine yup 😀

I’ve been researching lately about how to improve my singing voice. I don’t perform or anything (NOR DO I INTEND AT ANY POINT IN MY LIFE…ahem), but I thought I’d ask you if you had any tips about singing.

@jenwriter17 Yeah, no, I wouldn’t have gotten more than a few pages into it by now, probably.  I do most of my reading in the evening.

Remember, she made my Jonas scene canon! 😀  Of course she changed it quite a bit so it would fit in with the story correctly, but Jonas does visit Chessy in jail! 😀 😀

@rochellaine Ah, I see…special privileges. 😉 that makes me feel better; so I’m not too slow of a reader. 🙂

@jenwriter17 Okay. 🙂

Well, actually she let me start reading the second draft early.  I think @dekreel has also started reading the second draft.  SeekJustice was letting me read it as she was writing it. 😉

@rochellaine Awesome, thank you! If Seekjustice’s deadline passes and I make no mention of picking up your story again, don’t hesitate to remind me. 😉

Wow, you’re already that far??? unfortunately, I’m kind of a slow reader. 🙂

@jenwriter17 I’m fine. 🙂

Yes, of course. 😉  I already had several people read it, and I just wanted a quick perspective on how the opening was going and what types of things I might need to change before I got too far into the book.  So I’ve got that, and can write again.  And by the time you’re ready, I should have more written for you to re…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Cool. 🙂

I’m doing pretty well. How are you?

I have a question: is it okay if I postpone reading your story until after I’m done with Seekjustice’s? I want to be able to meet her deadline, and it usually takes me a while to finish beta jobs.

@jenwriter17 😉

I’m working on a short story.

How’s it going?

@rochellaine Oh, yeah, I keep forgetting the time difference she’s in. 🙂

What are you working on?

@jenwriter17 I’d probably faint if @seekjustice appeared at this time of day. 😛  But I’m here for just a little bit.

You know you’re a writer when you can relate to every single ‘you know you’re a writer when…’ posts in this topic. 😛

@seekjustice @rochellaine @catwing @dragon-snapper @dekreel @valtmy @alia @ariel-ashira (have you returned yet?)

I am doing blogging stuff and writing. Anyone wanna join me?

@seekjustice I haven’t been there in a really long time either.  I’ll have to take a look sometime soon.

Haha, I plan to, actually.  Someday.  But I’m afraid you all will be shocked when I do. 😛

Signing out now.  Goodnight!

@seekjustice Oh, no! 😛  The article does sound interesting though.  Was it recently published?

But I am giving my little Bathshua quite a bit of trouble, am I not?  I would certainly never let her die, though.  A dead father who betrayed everyone, a life of persecution, a broken arm, and a loss of faith are enough for anyone to go through, don…[Read more]

@seekjustice I didn’t go to sleep this time, just disappeared for a while.  I had some other stuff to do. 😉

How’s it going?

@catwing Okay, goodnight!

@catwing How are your books coming?

@seekjustice I suppose not. 🙂

Oh, did I ever tell you?  A little bit after reading Sapphire’s death scene I went downstairs and was talking to my sister.  She asked me if I’d been sleeping, because my eyes looked tired.  I said I’d been crying, and she looked sorry, and said gently, “Oh?  Why?” or som…[Read more]

@catwing Cool, what about?

@seekjustice Ah, and that reminds me.  I still haven’t finished your second draft.  I stopped right before Jonas’s death. 🙁  Maybe I’ll have time to get to the end of it tonight.
