@dragon-snapper. Okay, I’ll do it 🙂 You can count on that pickiness 😉 I could probably do it by the end of the month, but I will let you know if I do need more time. And so long as I don’t have to put my email online, I’m sure it will be fine 🙂 What will I have to do?

Louise Fowler replied to the topic Calling All Beta-Readers in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 10 months ago
@dragon-snapper That’s super exciting! 😀 Another friend of mine recently self-published a book of poems through Amazon as well.
I have a couple of questions before I possibly say yes:
1. What exactly are you looking for with the beta reading? Feedback, obviously, but are you also wanting things like grammar/spell-check and general editing? I…[Read more] -
Louise Fowler replied to the topic Songwriting Competition in the forum Music 8 years, 10 months ago
@dragon-snapper Sorry for a late reply! I like both songs, but I think I like the second one more. Do you have music to put to it, or is that not a part of it? I haven’t actually written a song myself (meaning, I haven’t written a decent song. I used to write songs a lot when I was little) but I would love to, and I think it’s great that you’re…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper From what I’ve heard, most Americans say “‘erb” without the ‘h’ sound. Australians say it as it’s spelt, with the ‘h’ sound. Although, there could be exceptions 😛
By the way, sorry I didn’t get back to you for so long. I’ve been sick and am only just feeling well enough to do more than sit on the couch all day…[Read more]

@mariposa Agreed. At least the children won’t think it’s cheesy 😉
Ummm… with my toes… I think… 😛

Louise Fowler replied to the topic Would You Rather Writing Questions in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 10 months ago
@anne-of-lothlorien I went on a relatively tame one when I was younger at Adventure World and I didn’t like the jerking turns for it. It wasn’t even very high up or anything, it was literally just a kiddy coaster 😛 I also went on a Dinosaur coaster when we went to LEGOland, California when I was five and I didn’t like it very much either.
Oddly…[Read more]

@anne-of-lotherlorian A boat ride. There is no way I’m going on a roller-coaster.

@anne-of-lothlorien @dragon-sanpper If you think it’s hard to purposefully ruin your manuscript, I have an actual book called Wreck This Journal. Yeah. It was so pretty and perfect when I first got it, but now it’s all scribbled on, pages have been torn out, folded, ripped, stained, put through the wash in my pocket, the book has been tossed,…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper I don’t have a dog because I have cats. Three of ’em. And putting a mutt in a moggie home is a death sentence. Two of them don’t always get along superbly as it is 😉 XD I like dogs well enough – I do prefer cats. But I know a few sweet pooches who I absolutely adore, and if we had a pup, I’m sure I’d love it because it would be…[Read more]

@anne-of-lothlorien :O You evil person! 😛
Actually, I will say chewed by my dog, because, guess what? I don’t have one! :A Mawhahahaha! Loophole! 😉

Louise Fowler replied to the topic Just Chatter #2 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 10 months ago
@dragon-snapper No offence to Americans, but most of you don’t 😉 Which is fine, because it’s not what you know, which is why Aussie like me have to educate you on it 😀
I just find it very interesting what these two different countries know and experience. Since I have an American dad and an Australian mum, I grew up learning about stuff from…[Read more]

@cloudy A novel! But not just any novel… a novel novel XD 😉 😀

Louise Fowler replied to the topic Homework for Video 5: Character Arc in the forum Writing Assignments 8 years, 10 months ago
As I mentioned in the last homework, I think another big theme in the entire story is trust, not just overcoming the odds. This is also part of a trilogy for which we’ve got a basic idea for all three books. At this point, overcoming the odds is the main theme for the first book, and you mentioned to Jess she should create her arc with all three…[Read more]

@mariposa Yeah, it would be good incentive – or you’d starve… XD
Would you rather write a book you love but everyone else dislikes, or write a book you dislike but everyone else loves?Something I like, because it doesn’t matter what anyone else thinks 😉
@dragon-snapper Yeah, I hate not being able to sleep.
Would you rather listen to hard…[Read more] -

@daughteroftheking Darth Vader. He can help me develop my Chosen Ones, anti-heroes, villains, and redeemed characters 😉
@celticcailin That’s hard. But probably plane, because I often write on my iPad if not at my PC, so that’ll be okay.
Would you rather only be able to eat after you’ve written 2 chapters of your novel, or suffer insomnia until…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper Yeah, invisible ink, but if it weren’t for the etching in stone, I’d love to write in ancient dwarvish runes 😀

Louise Fowler replied to the topic Homework for Video 4: Experiment in Living in the forum Writing Assignments 8 years, 10 months ago
@aratrea Thanks! 😀 All the characters mentioned are actually main protagonists too, I’m only concentrating on this one because she’s my character in a co-writing project 🙂
Basically, character A (the main one I’m talking about) has been trained all her life and is prepared, mostly, for a long quest and battle. Compared to characters B and C,…[Read more]
