@kaya-young Whoa, you’re here??  Cool!! 😀 😀 Haven’t seen you in a while.  What are you working on?

@seekjustice Thanks. 🙂

@seekjustice Zac is younger than Justice, right?  If so, by how much?  If not…how old are they?

@alia The Elsie Dinsmore article is here.  I don’t agree with everything the article says, but it does make a few good points.  Usually I look at a book differently depending on the era it depicts and when it was written, but there are some things you can’t compromise anyway.

I did enjoy the Elsie books very much too, but I upon rereading I f…[Read more]

@seekjustice They do sound really cool.  And pretty crazy.  Any little boy saddled with a name like that these days would be hopelessly bullied. 😮

I will now be departing for the night.  Talk to you later!

@seekjustice I’m seriously considering using Jaron.  However, choosing a name for a character is such an important task I believe I’ll think on it for a bit just to make sure. 😉  Thank you so much!

Yeah, I think both Dalbert and Elbert made me think of Anglo-Saxon names from my old his-fic and history books, so that’s probably why they didn’t s…[Read more]

@seekjustice Jaron and Keir are great!  I like those a lot.  Especially Jaron.  I think I might end up using that!

I’ve actually heard of all those except Casimir, Jaron, Kier, Kele, and Kiel, so I’m interested to hear which ones you thought were weird? 🙂  Casimir is the weirdest in my opinion. 😛 (No offense to any Casimirs who may happen to…[Read more]

@seekjustice Well, actually neither. 😛 Addison is still too normal.  It sounds a bit strange, but everyone’s heard of it.  I don’t want an ancient name either, like Adeodatus.  I want a name that sounds normal, but no one has ever heard of it before, like

…okay, I have spent the last fifteen minutes searching for at least one example and I ca…[Read more]

@seekjustice @ariel-ashira I need a name for a character.  He’s the protagonist of one of my writing projects, and it’s set in a contemporary period.  Since he’s the protagonist he needs to have a nice enough sounding name that people won’t be put off by it.  However, it needs to be a very unusual name in order for the plot to work.  The kic…[Read more]

@seekjustice Haha.  Well, I’ve heard of people doing that, so I don’t think it’s a completely strange or new idea.  It’s not something I’d do, though. 😉

However, I did once (several years ago) write a list of questions I’d ask a guy who wanted to court me and their required answers.  I went over it again recently and realized how silly it wa…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira Ah, thanks. 🙂

@seekjustice 😛

What are you doing now?

@seekjustice I’m back!

The line between helpfulness and obsession…hm. 😛

@ariel-ashira Hello, I’m here now.  One thing I noticed about SE was that it’s a lot like KP used to be. (obviously, because it’s run by the same people…) Basically what I mean is, while like you say, 90% of the people write fantasy and magic, a lot of the discussions…[Read more]

@seekjustice I just went over there and it does look interesting.

I’m going to disappear for probably half an hour or forty-five minutes.  See you later.

@seekjustice Haha!  What’s the blog about?  Never heard of it.

@seekjustice Hello!  Whatcha workin’ on?

@daughteroftheking Haha, that happens to me a lot. 😀

@daughteroftheking I’m sure we’d have room. 😉 I’m still working out the details, so I don’t know how long it will take to officially open the group, but everyone on KP will be the first to know. 🙂

You know you’re a writer when there’s so much going on in you head that you randomly blank on the most basic words. For example, last night I couldn’t remember the word “reply.” 😛

@jenwriter17 I’ve never been part of a critique group, so I don’t have any advice, but I’d be interested in joining if you’ve got room for me. 🙂

@seekjustice Thanks. 🙂 I’ll be thinking about joining SE.  I think the discussions there would probably be useful.  In fact, I was just reading one about a question I had recently.  Did you see the topic about whether a villain is necessary?  I have a couple stories which don’t contain a specific villain, but only an antagonistic situation, or…[Read more]
