Same here. All right. Talk to you another time. 😀

QOD: Depending on whether she has her disguise on or not, Myeongwol is either worshipped as the People’s Queen or reviled as the Traitor Queen. Taekyeon would be commonly called a flower boy due to his appearance and would probably be given other more awful nicknames. Seungyun likely has people whispering behind his backs about him…[Read more]

QOD: For Myeongwol, it is her mother. For Taekyeon, it is his best friend Geun Ji. For Seungyun… Seungyun does not trust anyone. 🙁
ROF: The emperor has a confidant in his wife who he loves dearly and shares his burdens with. 😛 The crown prince is close to both his parents but if the secret is not something flattering, I think he…[Read more]

QOD: I can see Myeongwol liking chocolate if it existed in her world. Milk chocolate, white chocolate, the sweet stuff crafted in heart shaped and given as romantic gifts 😛
Seungyun I can’t see liking sweets. Maybe dark chocolate or sea salt?
Taekyeon would be happy with any kind of chocolate since his childhood was so…[Read more] -

Oh wow. That’s actually a very relevant question for my characters.
QOD: If Myeongwol had chosen differently, her life would be tougher in the short term. She would lose her position and privileges in the short term but in the long term she would have had a much better chance for happiness. For Seungyun, his major decision points…[Read more]

That sounds like a job interview question.
QOD: Myeongwol would want to have an army to get revenge on her enemies. Seungyun would like his theatre empire to have the monopoly on drama and to earn a noble position. Taekyeon wants his theatre to be thriving and him and his fellow actors be able to live peacefully and with…[Read more]

Just to clarify, it was his father the emperor who kicked them out to the streets. Shu Juqing just… ensured it.
By the way it’s your turn to ask a question.

I’m not soaking with my phone. I’m picking up my phone from time to time to see if you’ve replied. 😛
Poor Courageous. Is it at least a luxury prison?
Haha. I imagine Shu Juqing to be a love-him-or-hate-him kind of character. I’m surprised that you, the Australian that abhors royalty, are saying that you like him.
By the way,…[Read more]

I’m having what’s called a relaxing soak.
Homeless commoners have to worry about food though. And even if Courageous stayed at the palace, he’ll be bullied horribly because Shu Juqing would see no reason to respect him as a brother and a prince.
So do you have a question? Or should I come up with one?

valtmy replied to the topic Writers' Corner #20 in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 6 months ago
Haha I am at the pool now! And I can continue surfing the net here!
Oh, it’s not going to be that easy. If Courageous will not take on royal responsibilities, he will not have the privileges as well. Shu Juqing’s brothers were kicked out of the palace with nothing but the clothes on their back. And they were not even expensive…[Read more]

Bye!
I’m going off for a short while for a swim but I’ll love to continue if you want to. 🙂

QOD: I think ‘Rewrite the Stars’ from The Greatest Showman really fit Myeongwol and Taekyeon. And as I mentioned before, the soundtrack of 42nd Street in general.
ROF: I am just trying to recall the names of all the epic, grand battle music scores I’ve listened to but can’t.
My question: Your characters can’t sleep!…[Read more]

I love playing around with clichés in my story. Shu Juqing is basically my experiment at taking all the traits associated with evil princes (e.g. ambition, ruthlessness) and turning them into a force for good. He is great as a friend, companion and ruler… He is just really, really terrifying and horrible to have as a…[Read more]

My crown prince’s name is Shu Juqing and from what I know of your story, Courageous should be very, very glad he does not have him as a brother. 😛
I think it’s your turn to ask a question 😀

valtmy replied to the topic Writers' Corner #20 in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 6 months ago
Tough. That’s a question I’ve never given much thought to.
QOD: I know that Myeongwol loves her strawberries. She and Seungyun have expensive tastes so I would just say their favourites are whatever delicacies there are in my alternate historical Korea. Maybe jjim and jeongol? For Taekyeon, nothing is better than his…[Read more]

I don’t know what’s with all these crossover questions but I like them 😀
I imagine that Seungyun from QOD and the crown prince from ROF would get along famously as pen pals as they are very similar (cold rationalists stuck in the very illogical worlds I have conceived). The major difference is that the crown prince has…[Read more]

Oops forgot to tag you. You can see my answer and question in the previous page.

Interesting question! I only have two book worlds now (at least that of which I can think of) so it’s about whether or not my characters would want to visit my other world.
QOD: Myeongwol would love to visit my ROF world because Epic Love Stories actually exist there (at least until the genre shift happens and it becomes a bloody…[Read more]

valtmy replied to the topic Writers' Corner #20 in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 6 months ago
Sure. Haha. The thing is, two of my projects are swarming my mind now so I might get mixed up giving answers about my characters.
Do you want to start? 😛

valtmy replied to the topic Writers' Corner #20 in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 6 months ago
Sure. But I’m not sure how good I’ll be at coming up with questions or giving answers. How does it work exactly? Do we play the game with only one specific character of ours in mind or only characters from one project?
