The fledgling Artist

@seekjustice @valtmy @jenwriter17 @alia Are any of you around tonight?

@seekjustice I dropped out for a bit to eat dinner, but now have a little bit of time before going to prepare for the guests we’re having tonight and tomorrow. 🙂

How’s your editing going?

@seekjustice Oho!  What kind of “situation” do you think it is? 😛  It’s actually just guys talking about guns, mostly.  Probably not what you were guessing, right?

But hm, now you’ve given me an idea.  Eavesdropping is cool, isn’t it? 😀

When I try to write a synopsis I usually get carried away, so instead I try to keep them in my head.  And…[Read more]

@seekjustice Yes, I think so too.  I’ll either have to find a way to make the story work with out that scene, or have Chara watching or something, so she can describe it, or else just find a few more scenes that I can do from Derek’s perspective.

I think I might be able to have that scene from Chara’s POV if she’s watching it happen or listening…[Read more]

@seekjustice And yet you used Zac’s POV in When Infinity is Empty which made it three. 😉  But that was only for a few pages.  And it was pretty necessary.

I’ll consider it.  Most of the scenes I have planned will very much not work with any POV but Chara’s.  I thought if I did a second it would probably be Raelyn for a few scenes, but I just…[Read more]

@seekjustice Hm, I guess you’re right.  Besides, she’d probably love to have something in common with Derek, huh? 😛

It was an empty threat anyway, since I don’t intend on using Derek’s POV except as a last resort.  All the scenes I have planned work best from Chara’s POV, and I’m trying to experiment with using only one, since I usually have s…[Read more]

@seekjustice Yes, I’m sure it’ll take me a while, too.  I’ve done lots of kinds of writing, but this is different from all of them. 😛

Ohh, no.  Not fun.  I have no idea what’s going on inside Chara’s head right now, and she’s not letting me see it.  Think if I threaten to switch to Derek’s POV she might behave? 😛

@seekjustice Since I’ve only written about three blog posts, I’m still having quite a bit of trouble figuring out the style of that. 😉

I’m opening my western now to see if my characters remember me or if I’ll have to introduce myself to them all over again.  I’ll let you know how that goes.

@seekjustice Hi, I’m here!  Possibly working on a blog post, possibly working on my western. 🙂 Neither of which has been touched in weeks. 😛

@Dekreel You have revived this! Yay!
To me they are the six stages of agony…
Disbelief: Wait? Huh?
Confusion: No, that can’t be right.
Pain: This is aweful.
Regret: How did I ever wrote this monstrosity?
Bargaining: Maybe it will be okay if I change this little thing?
Destruction: No! It must burn!

The life of a writer… We gets six stages of…[Read more]

@dekreel Hey, Dekreel!!  I see you on SeekJustice’s document.  I feel like I barely know you anymore, you’re never around!  Are you on right now?

@seekjustice Like I commented on the doc, I love it!!  It works perfectly as a stand-alone piece, and I think everyone who reads it will love it too.

…unless they’re a thirteen-year-old kid who thinks romance is “mush” even when it’s simple and sweet. 😛

I’m amazed at how often you say you hate romance when you write it so well! 😉  I guess y…[Read more]

@seekjustice Hooray!

I’m reading it now. 🙂

@seekjustice Well, after I finish reading your part two I’ll try to finish it. 🙂

@seekjustice Like I told Alia, I’m not saying anything until it’s done. 😛

@valtmy Distraction is a part of a writer’s life. 😉

Thanks!

@seekjustice I’ll get it done as soon as I can.  This one will be much shorter than the first one, since it’s just a little one-shot. 😉

@valtmy Hello!  How’s it going?

@seekjustice 😀 😀

Um…the nasty little fanfiction that seemed like such a good idea but can’t seem to turn out the way I want it to.  I have probably started it at least ten times, but never have gotten to the end of it. 🙁  I thought maybe if I did a kind of freewrite with a word war I’d get somewhere. 😉

@jenwriter17 @seekjustice I’m in the middle. 🙂  Got 365.

Farewell, Jen!  Have a nice evening.  Hope to see you tomorrow!  (And I’ll be working on that doc for you. 😉 )

@jenwriter17 @seekjustice Ten minutes it is!  😀

@jenwriter17 *holds up hands* Hey, I told @seekjustice! 😛  Sorry I neglected to inform you. 😉  I didn’t feel the need to because I wasn’t able to write anything for the past while until my exams were taken.  Now they’re done and I’m hoping to get back into writing. 😀

How long shall the war be?
