The fledgling Artist

@alia Yes, I was meaning that people say China will be sending the most missionaries out to other countries.  Chinese people witnessing for Christ in other places like Africa or, you know, just other countries besides China.  That’s what I’ve heard.

It’s really cool that relations with North Korea are progressing, isn’t it?

@rochellaine That poem is terrific!  Goodness, its so heartless!  Makes seekjustice sound awful, when she’s not at all.

@seekjustice Yes, I guess not.  We also used to live next to a family who ran a ministry home for young girls.  So I had exposure to that from a very young age.

Besides that I actually know a Christian homeschooled girl whose brother married a seventeen-year-old girl. 😀  Something funny about that was that he met her during ballroom dancing cl…[Read more]

@alia Amazing.  Very Interesting.  Tell me more of anything if you like!  You should write a story about your life and what its like there.

@seekjustice

It’s a good excuse to get out a social situation you never wanted to be in though. “Excuse me, I must go. My child is calling.”

Except that you’re only seventeen… 😀

@jenwriter17 Hello!  My novel is also calling me, and I’m trying to ignore it and write a long-overdue blog post, but since I have no idea what to write for the post a…[Read more]

I tried to edit my post and it got deleted.  So here I’m posting it again. 🙂

@ariel-ashira @alia It’s not an amazing poem, but you can read it if you want.  Here’s the link.

@seekjustice Wow, good logic! 😛 Okay, so I live in Maryland.  Literature usually designates Maryland as part of the South.  We have fox hunts, fried chicken, pla…[Read more]

@alia What is China like?  Do Americans have a wrong idea of China and what its like?

@alia Wow.  Sounds like your family travels!

@rochellaine Ooh!  Can I read that poem, please?

@seekjustice Well, if you look at it technically and literally, I am in the South.  I live below the Mason-Dixon line which is the official start of Dixie.  There’s a reason I can give you for why most people think we don’t live in the south, but before I do that:

What state do you think I live in?  I don’t remember ever stating sp…[Read more]

@alia Dog sledding is so much fun!  The only reason we did it though is because we lived at a mountain hot springs resort and my Dad flew tourists (most of who were Japanese) out to see eskimo villages, and mountains at sunset.

@seekjustice What do Australian zoos have?  I like looking at the kangaroos in our zoos. 😛

@rochellaine No need to explain to me why there is actually no heaven for characters.  Don’t worry, I don’t believe that. 😀

@seekjustice I’m not back. 😀  I’m just popping in to say give that advice to your sister, sure, but tell her to take it with a grain of salt, since it comes from a writer who can’t possibly kill her own characters. 😛

Also to say that I’ve never that I can remember heard @catwing‘s saying. 😉  America’s a big place, and we have a lot of di…[Read more]

@alia You have been to The Great Wall of China?  Three times?  Cool.  *tries to think of the best place I have ever been*  Dog sledding in Alaska?

@seekjustice What do you call police men with dogs in Australia?

@rochellaine Are you flying to Nevada?

And how do you know that our characters don’t go to a book character heaven?  😛

@seekjustice yes, it does.

@daeus Man, thats gotta be tough!  Will be praying for sure!

@jbb So good to hear!

@alia Definitely!

@alia ummmmm… no. I’ve been the opening of the Ark though.
@seekjustice *shrug* okay, what do you aussies say?
@rochellaine Aye. 😛

@alia Sure. (I actually volunteer at a horse therapy center too. I muck stalls. A highlight of my week. 🙂 [Yes, I find shoveling manure fun. I like horses])

@seekjustice Tell your sister that I understand the problem, but from everything I’ve read with advice on writing that’s considered a very bad reason to kill a character.  If you need to kill them off, have a good reason to do so.  Don’t just do it because you can’t think of anything else to do. 😀

random marquis that Marguerite accidently d…

@rochellaine Top a Civil War revolver? Okay… I have a compound bow. 🙂 (I feel like I’m sounding spoiled or something. 😛 )
@seekjustice I guess that’s how the cookie crumbles.

@rochellaine Kay is offering death escape classes for the fictional. (Not really, I’m not talented enough o write that.) XP
@alia I am lucky.
@seekjustice Would they like classes. XD
