@valtmy I’m tentatively on. 😉 I have poison ivy on one of my hands, and as a touch typist I can barely endure the achingly slow process of typing with only one hand. 😛 But I am researching now, so I’ll reply as often as possible.
@seekjustice Are you here yet?

@seekjustice Yeah, pretty awful. I’m also feeling really bad for my little Bathshua right now, since I’m realizing everything she had to go through.
Ah, I think that was the one. I remembered that her name was Mary, but since about 50% of all women seemed to have been named Mary back then, I didn’t think that would be such a great clue to her i…[Read more]

😛 you’d think so.
I remember once having to research the discrepancy between the verses where it talks about him hanging himself and him falling in a field and bursting open, so i had to read all that then. Not the most pleasant of subjects.
The Scottish one could have been Mary Stuart. She was married to the French dauphin when…[Read more]

@seekjustice Haha, stinging tree: stings. Should that be obvious? 😛
Quite. And disgusting. 😛 I was reading an explanation of how Judas hung himself, then was hanging there dead for several days before the branch probably broke and his bloated body fell down on the rocks and burst open. For someone who hates any form of medical discussion, re…[Read more]

There’s seriously no poison ivy or poison oak, as far as I know. But there’s things like the Stinging Tree, which as you’ve probably astutely observed, stings.
Oh cool! Is it interesting?

@seekjustice What?! You don’t have poison ivy? Forget about the dead-in-ten-seconds snakes and spiders! I’m moving to Australia! 😛
Seriously, though, you don’t have any? What about poison oak?
I’m researching Judas Iscariot and general facts about biblical lifestyle, such as what types of wells they had so I can get a clearer set…[Read more]

Ouch! Poison ivy is the only thing Australians don’t have to fear 😛
You’ve heard about my researching, what are you researching?

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 1 month ago
@seekjustice Well, I suppose that’s a fair reason. 😛
I’m having a horrible time typing tonight because some poison ivy I got during camping suddenly swelled up into a huge bubble between two of my fingers, so moving them hurts. 🙁 I was intending to work on writing, but I guess I’m stuck with researching.

That sounds like a sticky situation! Its a good thing they have a competent ambassador 😉
Hello! I didn’t reply earlier because I was researching Marie Antoinette.

@catwing Wow, new profile pic! 😀 I was quite fond of the other one, though. I’ll have to get used to this. 😛
@seekjustice Hey, are you on tonight?

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 1 month ago
I do like it, its pretty cool! Is that the official uniform of the Allore ambassador?

You changed your profile pic!

Sorry, no. 😀 I might not have said it on here, but I definitely mentioned in my blog post that I would be sending it out on August 1st, just so I knew that everyone got it at the same time and I wasn’t running around like a chicken with its head cut off wondering who needed it and who didn’t. Sorry for the confusion!

@seekjustice Okay, well, I’m going to sign off now.
Goodnight!
(I’ll keep thinking and let you know if I have ideas for any plot twists. I should probably read the full synopsis of ATOTC, though, and research it a little bit more as well.)

😀 I don’t blame you. Australia is a rather exotic location, given that most books are set in America or Britain.
True, I’ll work on that. I’ve been reading through the novel, but I’m not finding much of use.

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 1 month ago
@seekjustice Okay, cool. At least there’s one thing I imagined correctly! 😛 Part of the problem is probably that I’ve never been to Australia, so I’m probably imagining the setting completely wrong, and that carries to the characters.
Well, like I said, I thought it was pretty strange that they let the servant go after Justice was already in t…[Read more]

I imagine Zac wearing a very typical Australian outfit–a chequered Drizabone shirt, or something similar, jeans and riding boots. So probably not all that different from what you’re imagining.
In the book, the servant is let go, in all of the adaptions that I’ve seen, he’s been killed. Did that have anything to do with your plot twist?
