@rochellaine Have you been working on Daughter of Judas?! I think about it all the time, which probably sounds weird because its not even my story! 😉
@alia You like killing your favorites? I recently discovered that I am going to have to kill some of my favorite MC’s, and its really heartbreaking to think about. For me, anyway. 🙁

@kaymart Hey! That sounds very interesting. I can’t promise I’ll be able to critique all your bits and pieces, but I can give you my comments on this one. 🙂
So, that bit of writing is very intriguing. I like the simple symbolism of the bending grass. One thing I think should probably be reworded is the part where Marcus says why he can’t lea…[Read more]

@alia Ah, I see. 🙂
Well, I would guess that’s probably because I’m only nineteen, so most people would assume I was in my first or second year. I started college a bit younger than the average age, I think. 😉
Part of what I like so much about Daughter of Judas is that my “antagonists” are the Christians, so that’s a big twist on the average…[Read more]

@alia That sounds interesting, though not something I’d want to do. I can’t stand anything that has to do with medical stuff. 😛 I hope it goes well for you.
No, I’m actually halfway through my third year. I’ll graduate in December of 2019.
Ah, I’ve even forgotten or skipped scenes I wrote for specific spots in my books. 😉 I guess it’s bec…[Read more]

@alia I’m doing pretty well, but am extremely tired. However, I have quite a bit of studying to do, so I’ll be attempting to keep awake for a while and review some legal definitions… 😉
Oh, fun! I write a lot of little scenes, and often many of them don’t end up in the finished book, 😛 so it’s cool that you’re able to actually put that in.

@catwing 😀 Curly black hair is basically all you need to know. He’s pretty easy to spot. 😉

Hi, friends! The reason I am posting this comment is so that I can get this topic sent to my email, not so I can actually say anything. 😉 But since I am here I might as well say hi and I sure missed you!

@valtmy That’s the same thing that happened with my western and DoJ. I currently have been actually writing on DoJ and making notes for my western, but that could change at any moment. 😀
@seekjustice Bye! I’m leaving now too.

@seekjustice Ah, I don’t know. Sometimes it’s fun to criticize. I mean, if we know better than the writers, we must know a lot, right? And isn’t it fun to know a lot? Or at least, to feel like you know a lot on one particular subject?
I was just on a quiz website the other day and passed the grammar, history, and literature tests with fly…[Read more]

@valtmy Good question. Maybe the house is backed up to a hedge, and since the stairs are easily seen by anyone, he wants to go by the hedge so no one can see him talking to her? They could be in the terribly cliche situation where her parents hate the guy, or at least he thinks they do, or he could be in hiding for some terrible crime against t…[Read more]

@valtmy Haha! Since window scenes specifically aren’t a cliche, why don’t you do a balcony scene instead? As popularized by Romeo and Juliet, balcony scenes are an iconic sight in romantic fiction.
I looked up traditional Korean architecture and it looks like there are a lot of houses on stilts with railed porches. If the girl goes out on th…[Read more]

@seekjustice One of my favorite songs is titled “Without a Song” with the opening lyrics being “Without a song the day would never end; without a song the road would never bend; when things go wrong a man ain’t got a friend without a song.”

@seekjustice I have thought of two musicals we both like!! One’s my recommendation and one is yours.
Mine: Brigadoon
Yours: Anastasia
There! We have at least two musicals which we can both agree are wonderful. 😀 (unless you’ve changed your mind since our last discussions of them…)

@seekjustice Your description of The Scarlet Pimpernel and conclusion that you have no idea why I like your books is absolutely hilarious.
Put it down to good writing. 😉
Yeah, I get that. I think each of these theological questions has to be viewed separately and you can’t apply the rule from one question to another question.
