@rochellaine @alia @dekreel @daeus Anyone on?

@alia Okay, let’s see… 😀

I completely understand about trauma issues with adopted kids, obviously, since we’ve adopted so many.  My parents run a ministry counseling adoptive parents, and have written over 40 books on parenting and adoption, so what I’m saying is mostly what I’ve heard them repeat over and over. (I hope I get it right! :)…[Read more]

@Ethryndal *blinks* My head…

@jenwriter17 No, you’re right.  We know several families with twenty or more kids. 🙂  It’s just some skeptical person in the government who was supposed to approve the paperwork as a formality decided that it’s impossible for a family to be “normal” or something with this many kids, so they put a hold-up on everything.

Thanks!

@Dekreel *can’t stop snickering* The troll thing is now my favorite. :”D

@rochellaine  Yes, I suppose not…

@gh24682468999  I just made up a language of gibberish 😉

@ingridrd  Thanks! Yes, I remembered…

@supermonkey42  Thank you! I think I can say the same of other KP literature as well, actually.

@skredder  At least Rochellaine spared him! Even though, apparently, that’s a little impl…[Read more]

@dekreel I insist that disbeliefing someone is not morbid!  If they’re not real in the first place, how does it hurt to make them disappear from tangible sight?  I can only disbelief things that aren’t real, since disbeliefing is a factor of the imagination.

@supermonkey42 Well no, “sentient” droids aren’t real, but you don’t act like a droid. :…[Read more]

@filewriterbase13x I love writing from villain POVs, so yeah! Let’s do this! 😀

@dekreel *hides in shame* Haha, I was kind of hoping no one would notice. 🙂  I had a good reason to stay up late, though.  I wanted to discuss a problem with someone, and Seekjustice was the only one around.  If you want to know what the problem was, you can read a few posts from our discussion, starting from here. 🙂

Awesomesauce! 😛 @his-instrument

@rochellaine  @seekjustice  Good grief — Have you guys been up all night??

(I’m not writing…)

@rochellaine  … Um… yeah, actually there is magic in them. Just not the Harry Potter kind of magic…

Well that would have been morbid for a story like this 😉

Yes, I still like you, if not slightly nervous 😉

@sleepwalkingmk  It was actually in my cousin’s introduction topic. XD Shall I shoot you a link?

@daughteroftheking Here he is.

@rochellaine

That point about their relationship being interesting is completely valid, but at the time I hadn’t worked out the details, and was originally thinking she might be older (Cosette, when adopted by Valjean in Les Mis, is eight or nine), but it ended up that she needed to be much younger than that for the timeline to fit properly, so…[Read more]

@rochellaine

If I was stopped in the night, then I’d probably stab the guy with my pen. No joke, I’m very strong and a pen would hurt if stabbed in the right place.

I am paranoid and have thought about this way too often.

@seekjustice Here’s my thesis! 😀

First of all, you said something about how Chessy’s and Sapphire’s relationship might be “interesting.”  This might be true if she was adopted at a later age, but really, if she’s grown up with Sapphire, she won’t ever consider her as anything other than a sister, and if she does, that might cause problems for…[Read more]

@seekjustice Probably between 4000 and 5000 words, which means with the average 800 word parts I’ve got it in now, one to three more sections.  Yeah, not much to work with. 😀

P.S. What would you do if someone stopped you in the middle of the night like happened to June in the beginning?

@rochellaine

Ah…what kind of word count are you aiming for? I’m going to have dinner, so let me ponder and I’ll get back to you.

Okay, cool 😀
