The fledgling Artist

@northerner @kate-flournoy I love SE!  A lot!  It has pretty much the same mission as KP.  I go over there all the time to haunt the forum and read the new articles which have been amazing.  Still, it saddens me that KP is not what is used to be and so many people have left.  My best friends though ( @alia @seekjustice @rochellaine @jenwriter17 esp…[Read more]

@seekjustice Yeah, I was researching the kind of amnesia where you can’t remember anything after the accident.  It appears to be more common than the kind where you forget everything before the injury.  I had not heard of it before though because it seems like movies and books use the other kind more.  I had also seen a movie recently where th…[Read more]

@seekjustice I’ve been listening to a YouTube video which collects thirteen versions of “If I Loved You” from Carousel and asks “who sang it best?” but doesn’t include my favorite version… 😛

Yes, it’s from the late 40s, so it’s kinda too early for you.  But, which version did you listen to?  It’s been done in a lot of different styles.  It is…[Read more]

@seekjustice Well, I’ll (hopefully) be here for a while.  I’ve got a lot of work to do.

@seekjustice I’m back.  Are you here?

@seekjustice Have you ever heard of the movie 50 First Dates?  I’ve never seen it but people have told me the plot several times and I just looked it up to make sure what it was.  It looks to me like that has the type of amnesia you’re talking about.  The girl was in a car accident so she can only remember one day and then forgets it the next da…[Read more]

@seekjustice “Lost in the Stars” by German-American composer Kurt Weill.  He wrote a lot of operas and musicals in both German and English.  “Lost in the Stars” is from a rather depressing musical also titled Lost in the Stars, and since the plot was depressing I haven’t listened to any more of the songs, but that song is beautiful…and also d…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira I don’t dislike them, I just like other books better.  I do remember I liked the first one when I read it, but that was probably eight or ten years ago and I can barely remember it now.

@seekjustice I’ve been listening to all the versions I can find of a song that reminds me very strongly of your Stars books and especially Justice.

@rochellaine  Do you not like the Black Stallion books?

@ariel-ashira Yes, you should definitely read Hans Brinker!!!  It’s such an amazing book!!

I’ve only read the first Black Stallion book, so I don’t know to what you’re referring. 🙁  If you want to clarify I’m probably not ever going to read the rest of the series so I don’t mind spoilers. 😉

My grandmother had the same problem when she had a r…[Read more]

@rochellaine Yeah, movies tend to use the rarest cures possible. 🙂  I have not read Hans Brinker.  Now that you mentioned it, I will have to read it. 😀 My favorite amnesia story is The Black Stallion Revolts.  And the way Alec gets his memory back is terrific!  Its one of my favorite stories.

I had the tiniest bit of amnesia when I had my thi…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira Ah, I had that problem about a month ago when I had to use a different computer from mine. 🙁  I ended up writing a little bit on a google doc and then giving up. 😛

Well, I know at least that the cliche thing that happens in half of the amnesia fiction stories where the person gets hit on the head again in the same place and it…[Read more]

@rochellaine I am coming along well, I guess.  I am still in the researching, outlining part of several stories and I am not actually writing them yet.  Part of why I cannot write them yet is because this crazy laptop we have to use right now doesn’t even have Word Documents!

How much do you know about amnesia?  (It is a lot of fun.  Shh…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira I like amnesia.  I’m not so fond of third degree burns. 😛  I was going to give Chara some, but I didn’t want her to get scarred, so I just gave her some painful, but not long-lasting second degree burns. 🙂  It was a selfish reason, though.  Having her be scarred would be too much trouble to write about and I wanted her to heal qui…[Read more]

@rochellaine I am researching amnesia and level three burns.  Sometimes when I think about what I have to do to my characters, I wonder how much I really want to be a writer.

@ariel-ashira I’m still here.  What are you working on?

@rochellaine I am on!  Are you still?

I’m working on some stuff with my parents books.  Is anyone on?  @seekjustice @ariel-ashira @alia @jenwriter17

@kate-flournoy Haha, glad I could clear it up! 😛  Oh, and I noticed in your post you were saying you thought we were trying to “prove our loyalty to KP” by “competing with SE”.  Actually we’re not at all trying to compete with SE.  The whole thing is about the people who left without a second glance and have completely deserted KP for SE.  Sev…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy I’m just popping in here to let you know that this whole “we don’t like SE” and “going to war” business is just a joke.  It seems like you might be wondering if we’re serious, but we’re just having a play sort of like the KP fanfiction.  Personally, the reason I’m not on SE is because I don’t have time, and it’s easier just to s…[Read more]
