Please keep reading Spinning Silver, I can’t guarantee you’ll love it but I was also very bored for the first bit and ended up rating it my favourite Fantasy book of 2020.

I just finished my “secret project” on the 30th and it’s the first full novel for ages, so I’m very happy about that. I haven’t done anything short except articles for KP but I want to do some more short stories this year because I miss them.
We didn’t do anything fancy for Christmas and it was just my immediate family and my…[Read more]

Sounds cozy. 🙂
I read your post where you said you’d read a hundred books this year, and…wow. I really need to get back into reading. I realized that’s why I haven’t been able to write: I just haven’t read enough books lately.  How’s your writing been going? Have you written any short pieces lately?
Yeah, things have been…[Read more]

The future so far has consisted of being snuggled up in bed listening to an audiobook while it rains. So it’s going pretty good.
I’m tired but pretty good! Can’t wait for the holidays to end so thing’s get a little less crazy.

Salute from the past! 😀
How’s the future turning out for you? 😉
I’m doing great. It’s been a really crazy year, but still, there were some wonderful things that happened as well. 🙂
How are you?

Hello y’all. I’m currently in 2021 while the rest of you are stuck in 2020.
(Sorry, I just had to do that)
How are you?

Anyone around? I’ll be here for a while.

SeekJustice replied to the topic Today I read… in the forum Book Discussions 5 years, 8 months ago
I don’t have many opinions on the Civil War in fiction. I literally don’t think I have ever read a book set in the Civil War? Ever?? Nope, I’m pretty sure I haven’t. However! I do have opinions on the Revolutionary War. My family is English (my grandparents came out to Aus in the late 60s, and my cousins and other family members still…[Read more]

SeekJustice replied to the topic What was the most difficult scene for you to write and why? in the forum Topic of the Week 5 years, 8 months ago
That’s quite hard for me to answer! Death scenes are hard for me to write emotionally speaking, especially as someone who has had two very beloved family members die traumatically. It’s just hard for me to treat them as blase as I used to when I was a younger writer and I struggle with them quite a lot.
More mentally though, stupid…[Read more]

SeekJustice replied to the topic Wanted: Writer friend in the forum General Writing Discussions 5 years, 8 months ago
I’m around too if you ever want to drop me a line 😀 We sound like we’re at pretty similar stages in writing. I started writing when I was ten or eleven but I’ve been writing seriously (for me, that means with the goal of being traditionally published) since I was about sixteen, so almost five years now working towards being…[Read more]

SeekJustice replied to the topic How many of you are published? in the forum Publishing & Platform 5 years, 8 months ago
Why The Horse and His Boy?? I am remarkably curious. I didn’t really grow up sheltered at all, so when my more conservative friends (this happens to me in real life just as much as on the internet) say they weren’t able to read/watch certain things I get confused 😀

SeekJustice replied to the topic Hello Everyone in the forum Start HERE 5 years, 9 months ago
Hey there! You sound like a fascinating person! I’d love to hear more about your mechanical engineering and your woodworking? What sort of things do you make? I really want to get into leather working but I’ve never tried doing any sort of woodwork. and bookbinding obviously sounds awesome!
Who are some of your favourite authors?

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner 01 in the forum General Writing Discussions 5 years, 9 months ago
What’s your blog’s name?
Kind of… 😛 I opened one up a while back and wrote a few posts but I’m terrible with consistency and dropped off from it. Lately I’ve been thinking of trying again, maybe putting up some of the scenes or songs from the mini musical I wrote for my little sisters, or publishing some of my poems, but I just n…[Read more]

It’s pretty good so far. 🙂 I’m only about halfway through it. (Sorry, Jen…so slow, I know. 😛 )
😀 What’s the topic you’re working on?

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner 01 in the forum General Writing Discussions 5 years, 9 months ago
I’m doing great.
Trying to finish reading Jen’s book as fast as possible since I’m late getting back to her. 😉
What about you?

@devestate-lasting
I used Microsoft Word for years. I eventually stopped using it because, turns out, Word doesn’t like 100,000 plus words, which is fair. It’s still a great program and I use it for writing articles, short stories and essays.
For my novels, I now use Scrivener. Like Jenna said, it’s not free but it’s 100% worth the money, and…[Read more]

SeekJustice replied to the topic Describe your writing process in 3 words. What are they and why? in the forum Topic of the Week 5 years, 9 months ago
Absolutely barking mad.
I think that pretty much sums it up??
Lol, but seriously. I think I would say Passionate, Obsessive, and Distractible. I am very passionate and I often use writing as my tool for bringing awareness to things that upset me, or things that make me really happy. I would like to think both my process and my…[Read more]

SeekJustice replied to the topic How Do Y'all Feel About… in the forum General Writing Discussions 5 years, 9 months ago
I’ve got mixed feelings on this and I think a lot of it has to do with different cultures and subcultures. For example, in Australia cursing is very prevalent and especially in my subculture (rural, farmers and dog trainers) it is even more so. Therefore I grew up hearing a lot of swearing (though my parents didn’t swear) and I’m not…[Read more]

@gracie-j Thank you for that rousing welcome!
It’s my little love letter to British mythology (which in turn inspired my article for this month). I’m keeping the main premise under wraps for now, but basically its about two brothers who are living in a fantasy world that was ruled by the Dark Lord for centuries, before he was…[Read more]
