The fledgling Artist

@seekjustice Ok, just tag me when you get back.

@seekjustice Are you around?  I’m going to try to make some progress on my western. 🙂

Well, I have a prayer request.
Tomorrow morning I am going to be in a 4th of July (America’s Independence day) parade with my horse club (yay horse club. I don’t know if I told you guys that I found I place to ride. Well I found a place to ride.). I’m a little nervous cause it will be my first parade in a while (I was in a dance parade once or…[Read more]

@alia Sometimes I get confused about what he wants me to do next too.
Moving is hard. I moved last year.
Praying for both of those things.

@valtmy *chuckles nervously* um, yeah.  She actually hasn’t been up to much.  That’s the problem. 😛  But I’ll work on it. 😀

Okay, that’s what I thought.  Now, follow up question: What’s your definition of parody?  Not the dictionary definition, but what do you think when you hear the word “parody?”

@valtmy Wow, haha. 😛  I’m not sure what that means but I think you’re saying I need to update soon.  😛

I have a question.  Your book is supposed to be a romance parody, right?  Or did I get that mixed up with something else?  During my semi-break I kind of lost focus on everyone’s WIPs but SeekJustice’s, so sorry if I’m remembering wrong.

@valtmy I didn’t mean I had that attitude yet, just that I need to have that attitude. 😛

And I was just thinking, I never ended up commenting on your first chapters, did I? 😮

@valtmy I think I have a section almost ready for beta reading too, I just have to accept that it’s not going to be perfect the first time around and that’s why I’m putting it up for you all to read… 😉

@valtmy Same here. 🙂

“Angst is not very fun to write” Hm, maybe you should talk to @seekjustice 😛  She seems to handle it pretty well…

@seekjustice @valtmy I’m on now.  Are either of you working on anything?

@seekjustice Are you going to be around in a little while?  Right now we have a few guests and the girls are chatting in the girls’ room, but we should be going to bed in a bit and I’ll write then.

@alia @seekjustice Same here. 🙂

@jenwriter17 Sorry for disappearing! 😛  I got distracted by my sister’s dog.  My mom let him out of his pen to play in the yard and he was so adorable…

😛  I’ve got some other stuff to do now, but I’ll probably be on in a little while or tonight, so I’ll see you later if you’re on then.

@jenwriter17 I’m going to try. 😛

I’m here now, but it’s been an hour since you posted.  Are you still around?

@jenwriter17 I’m so sorry!  I completely forgot about answering your questions about the Great Depression! 🙁

I have a question of my own, though.  In what year exactly is your book set?  Because the Great Depression covered a whole decade, and I’d like to get my facts accurate.  😉

@seekjustice We eat crackers with toppings and dips all the time too. (Biscuit is a totally different food here.)  The crackers we eat are mostly Saltine types, if you’ve ever hear of those…and I’m rather doubtful?  Snacks don’t seem to have the same names across the globe even if they are similar. 😛  The most famous example of that I think is…[Read more]

@seekjustice Haha. 🙂

In my family we usually stay up pretty late, and basically the rule is as long as you can be up in time to do school in the morning you can stay up as late as you want. 😛  Some of us like to stay up later than others.

It varies. 😉  Last night I had yogurt with frozen blackberries, and tonight it’s tea and some sort of c…[Read more]

@seekjustice Haha.  Once around Christmastime I put on a playlist of my favorites on my phone and was playing it while doing housework, and my mom got really confused because it was going from a hymn to a folk song to a Christmas song to a song from a musical.  She had to stop me and ask if it was a playlist or what, because the songs totally d…[Read more]

@seekjustice Since churches are made up of imperfect humans, I guess every church must have it’s imperfections.  But it’s nice to know we can grow in Christ.

So, you didn’t answer my question about whether you were listening to anything today. 😉  By the way, what made you leave so suddenly earlier?  Lunch?

@seekjustice I always get scared when someone asks me to describe something, because I’m horrible at descriptions.  I feel like I didn’t answer your question… 😛
