@skredder Hi!

@aislinn-mollisong Yes, it’s the one with the snake.  😀  But the snake isn’t really part of the plot, just part of the story.  I’m trying to make it like the old westerns except set in modern times.  It’s about a girl who goes out west to visit her uncle and aunt.  They actually live in the city, but she meets some young peop…[Read more]

@rochellaine I agree too. more conflict makes things more interesting *rubs hands together*

I’m in the USA too. 😊

@princessfoo Cool! *high fives*

@jane-maree yay, thank you! that means a lot coming from you 😊

@nicoleriver03 That looks great!👍

Here’s a character collage for my main character, Rin Adachi:

@gh24682468999 lol, sometimes it’s just best to keep things private. ah, us writers are so misunderstood. 😉

@aislinn-mollisong I am just at that place in my western, too!  It’s awful.  Right now I’m doing a little bit of outlining, and I might just skip the hard part and write the next part, then come back to it later.

Hey!  @aislinn-mollisong I’m working on my western, and chatting with @clairec about how – contrary to what most people here think – fantasy isn’t the only genre out there. 😀

What are you doing?

@clairec Okayyy, that sounds interesting.  I’m a real stickler for historical accuracy, but not so much historical events as culture.  I will freak out if someone wears a 1947 dress in 1943, or talks about an actress whose first movie was released six months later than the time in which the book was set, but if you want to add a few historical e…[Read more]

@clairec  Yes!  Everyone is so into fantasy now it seems all other genres are forgotten for young people!

I have read a little fantasy.  I liked the Chuck Black Kingdom  and Knights series okay a couple of years ago, and I love the Frank Peretti Cooper Kids series (which is only semi-fantasy).  Other than that, though I mostly read histori…[Read more]

@dekreel *blinks* Whoa, you’re right.

@dekreel  Yeah, I have a feeling I would be a sweet, well-meaning character who unintentionally ruins everyone’s plans because I would deal with things in a real-world way. 😀  That would be very annoying for fantasy believers, and could really mess up the cliched plot for them. *snickers*

I don’t know…if you act enough like a person I might f…[Read more]

@rochellaine  Hmm…. *smirks*  I like that! It’s unique!

… Wait, so how do you feel about me? Please don’t make me disappear! *prepares to hide under table*

@dekreel Have you noticed how not-into fantasy I am?  I think if I was in a KPA I would probably be the person who instead of wanting to go on the quest would try to call the police.  Or if someone had a cute imaginary creature for a pet I would say something like “That’s not a real animal” and poof!  the creature would disappear because I di…[Read more]

@rochellaine  Absolutely! *whips out character notes* What’s your suggestion?

@dekreel Oh good!  😀  May I make a suggestion?

@rochellaine  Okay I’m back, but only for about twenty more minutes XD

The KPA is actually going to be a whole series of holiday-themed stories. So if you aren’t in this one, you will undoubtedly be in another one. And don’t worry — I won’t make you a creature 😉

@dekreel Bye!  I’ll probably still be here for a while, so I might be here when you get back.

@rochellaine  Ahh, I gotta go! Sorry I couldn’t stay longer! I shall return later!

@dekreel *Slowly peeks out from under eyelashes* Am I going to be in the story?

I don’t really care one way or another if I’m in it, so don’t put me in if you weren’t planning to. 😀  I just want to make sure I’m not some weird creature, because I have noticed you are prone to doing that, and I don’t think I would like it… 🙂
