@seekjustice Hm, I seem to recognize the name. I think I may have heard of him before. I’ll have to look him up.
And you should definitely look up Paul Washer. He’s amazing, and very passionate.
Ah, haha! I was thinking that would be the one you would like. 😛 I’m not sure which one I like best. I just watched on YouTube the American Playh…[Read more]

No I haven’t heard of him, this speaker is Louie Giglio from Passion Church in Atlanta. Have you heard of him?
I’m just looking at the synopsis. It looks pretty cool, especially the second story so far.

@seekjustice Cool! Who’s the speaker? My favorite is Paul Washer, but though he’s famous among us U.S. homeschoolers, I don’t think you’ve heard of him. 😛
Aaand, I probably haven’t heard of your speaker either, but…tell me anyway? 😉

@seekjustice Hey, are you still awake? I’m here now. 🙂
The soundtrack I was listening to was from a musical called The Apple Tree. Ever heard of it?

Never mind 🙂 People often point out my own misinterpretations of my own writing. At least you can be excused for mixing up minor details 😛
Well, originally he was there to get around the plot hole in Les Mis–the fact that no one recognised Javert until it was convenient, even though there were three people at least who should have…[Read more]

That’s good! I hope things make more sense in the second draft.
Well…that wasn’t Mathias who let them go. That was one of the wharf men.
Observe (that word makes me feel smart, you see):
Instead I met the eyes of a bearded man who looked even more startled than I did. His mouth was open, and he was staring down at Rain and I…

@seekjustice Oh, wow!! Please send it over! I don’t know how much I’ll read tonight, since I’ve got to get up around 5:30 tomorrow, but I might read it tomorrow in the car or something. (My dad’s speaking at a church a few hours away, so we’ve got to leave by 6:30.)
I listened to a new soundtrack today… 😉

Sorry for the late reply, I was out all day yesterday and have only just got back from church now.
Basically, I fixed most of the things you pointed out Valtmy, in the second draft and I fixed it quite simply. Unfortunately though, I don’t know what to do with character of Mathias. :/
I agree with pretty much everything you…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 Oh, I love Gideon too!! He’s adorable. So cute, especially when he…uh…every scene… 😛 But I love it when he dances with Milly in the “Goin’ Courtin'” scene. And when he says “nice night for coon huntin'” as a “sweet thing.” 😛 (that was him, right? It’s been a while.)
That actor is one of my favorite actors as well. Funny…[Read more]

@valtmy Sorry, I went to sleep early last night, so I’m replying now. 🙂
Ah, haha. Now that I put you through all the trouble of explaining I suddenly remembered that SeekJustice put a big backstory scene in with Maria in the second draft. 😛 I think she’s already thought through all those issues and will fix them as she finishes the second d…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 Oh, I do too! Jane Powell, (Milly,) is one of my absolute favorite female singers. Possibly my favorite, but I never can decide… 😛
My favorite song is probably “Bless Yore Beautiful Hide.” (What do you think of Howard Keel’s voice? It’s really deep and cool sounding, isn’t it? Or do you prefer tenors?) But all the songs are amazing.

@valtmy I have never fully read Les Mis, actually. I’ve skimmed it and read parts of it, and read the synopsis several times, so I know a lot of the story, but I would say I could probably give a pretty near perspective of a reader who hasn’t read Les Mis. 😉 What “contrived resolution” are you referring to? Because you mentioned several th…[Read more]

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #18 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 2 months ago
@jenwriter17 Oh, cool! Yes, that’s the most popular part generally, I believe. Or at least, the most famous part. It’s really well choreographed.
Who is your favorite character? What’s your favorite song?

@valtmy Oh, and did you read through all our crazy comments at the end of When Infinity is Empty? Some of them are pretty hilarious. 😛

@valtmy Hi! Sure, you can read my fanfics. 😀 @seekjustice has one too, so you can ask her for that. But I have written two that I’ll post here for you:

@seekjustice Ok, I’m falling asleep now. See you tomorrow, and have fun at dance class!
Great! I’m waiting to read it, of course! 😀

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #18 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 2 months ago
Fair enough. I’m just trying to finish off a blog post so I can schedule it for tomorrow, since I’m going to be aware for most of tomorrow.
Editing is pretty good! I’m hoping to finish Part 3 tomorrow 😀

@seekjustice I won’t be awake much longer than that anyway. 😉
It’s going pretty well. 😀 I’m still having fun, which is good. Since I’m getting sleepy it’s a little slower than it was earlier, but I’m still pretty much on a roll. I hope the “roll” lasts long enough for me to get a good deal done!
How’s your editing?
