The fledgling Artist

@seekjustice @alia Talking about musicals without me?!!  How dare you???

@Seekjustice Okay that makes sense. I was wondering about advice because one of my beta readers said that not each of my main characters had a clear unique character arc. So I was trying to find out more about them. 😉

@alia Sometimes it is hard to find the right words to write down, so I think, “But I’m a writer.” Yeah, well that doesn’t mean we always know how to express what we want to say (just maybe we’re better at it. Poor non-writers. ;P )

@seekjustice Hey,  if you’re still awake, the reason I fell asleep so early yesterday was because there have been roofers working at our house yesterday and today starting at about six o’clock a.m., so the banging on the roof has been making it hard to get any sleep. 😛

Got to go now, but hopefully I’ll see you tonight!

@seekjustice I’m not sure whether that’s a good or a bad thing… 😛  Does that mean you just don’t remember spoilers people tell you, or does it mean you can’t discuss books after you read them…? 😛

@alia I like to write sci-fi when I don’t have to do much research. 😉  I love researching history, and everyday – or non-everyday – things, but I…[Read more]

@seekjustice Oh no!  If you read our conversation…wow, that contained MAJOR spoilers!! 😛  Hopefully you can still enjoy the books. 😛

@seekjustice Haha, yes! 😛 By the way, speaking of Alia’s story, you should definitely read the Mars Diaries by Sigmund Brouwer.  Seriously.  They’re amazing. 😀

@alia 😉  You like The Princess Bride?

I’m very interested in how you make your new story different from Brouwer’s.  I love the premise, because of course I love his books and I lov…[Read more]

@seekjustice Oh, oh!  I scrolled up a bit and saw the end of your long post to @catwing where you said “to sum up.”  Immediately, this flashed into my brain:

@valtmy Hi!  How’s it going?

@alia @jenwriter17 Hey, hey!  Who’s talking about me staying up late??

😛 I’m here for a little bit, Alia, if you’re still here.

@alia okay have fun!

I think I’m going to leave and take a break too. 🙂

@rochellaine okay bye!

@catwing @alia I’ve got to go now for a bit.  Hopefully be back in a little while or later tonight.  Bye!

@seekjustice Sorry, I forgot it was Sunday for you. Oops… Thank you!
(You’re right it was. I don’t think I said I invented the term did I? …)

@alia It’s really good. 🙂

@alia I can see… whoa. That is a very very cool collage. I almost want to go off and make a collage. XP I’ve made some for my characters. I put them all on my blog. Finding Secrets Collages
There’s also one on there for me. ;3

@alia Yes, I can see it!  Cool.  Which one is this for?

@alia That’s okay. 🙂
@rochellaine Well, that is sort of what I do so. 🙂 but not much help. Oh, well. @seekjustice what do you know about character arches?

@alia Hahahaha!! 😛 😛 😛

@alia Cool!  You have to save the collage to your computer as a JPEG or whatever file it saves as, and then you click the little landscape icon at the far right of the “Visual” panel here on the forum.  That’ll open up a little lightbox, and you click on the “search” icon which will open up your documents so you can select the picture from your c…[Read more]
