@xonos-darkgrate Oh, cool. I prefer realistic myself, but a lot of the people on the forum like the modern styles. Haha, I was about to ask you what fandom it was for. I guess it’s not. 😛
Do you have any writing projects you’re currently working on? (not necessarily at this moment, just ones that are in progress.)
@catwing I feel like I sh…[Read more]

Alcott never struck me as particularly feminist. What makes you say that?
Have you ever read any Rosemary Sutcliff? I’m not sure whether you’d like them or not, but I love her stories.
I don’t know imagine you’d like many of the myriad of fantasy stories I consume. Or most of Charles Dickens. Have you ever read Elizabeth Gaskall?…[Read more]

@seekjustice Oh, didn’t I? Whoops! 😛
I used to like boys books way more than girls books, because they had more adventure. Now I like both. We also had a lot more boys books than girls books when I was growing up because I have an older brother… 😉
I like Alcott except for her feminism, but that’s hard to avoid in any case. Jo’s Boys is…[Read more]

You didn’t tag me so I didn’t realise you responded till just then.
I have explained before that I was never much into girl books. And while I liked Anne of Green Gables, I never adored it.
Mary thinks Dickon is magic, but as far as I know there’s no charms, I’m almost at the end.
I love Little Women! It’s one of my favourite…[Read more]

@xonos-darkgrate I am ashamed. . . *cowers*
Heheh, be glad to. *smirks*
The Writerly Adventures of Jenna Trapperton
Basically it’s like a roleplay, except KP instead of The Aetherlight. I (SPOILER ALERT) gave the KP Aetherlighters an appearance, too, so. . . ya.
I’m sure your servant was honored to have his photo taken and displayed for all…[Read more]

@xonos-darkgrate Cool! Was the drawing for one of your stories? What style art do you do?
@catwing Hello! Did you have fun? Learn anything? Meet anyone? What are you working on now?

@xonos-darkgrate In my excitement, I hadn’t considered that. How silly of me. . . 😛
Hey, I’m glad I’m not the only one with virtually billions of unfinished story blurbs! Those drive me nuts. . . Pretty much the only thing I’ve ever finished so far is the KPA (which if you haven’t read yet, I think you oughta. . .).

Rochellaine replied to the topic Starting a Critique Group? in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 7 months ago
@jenwriter17 Cool.
Nope, no advice. I’ve been looking over the plans you and others have suggested on this thread and thinking that if I ended up joining it’d be sink or swim for me, with a leaning toward sink. 😛 I am so inconsistent in my work! Basically I mean, if I was able to keep up it would be just what I need to be consistent in my wr…[Read more]

WELL IT’S ABOUT TIME! Welcome back to the bestest place in Cyberspace, dude!! 😀 😀
I am seeing your face. I am freaking out. . . o.o Apologies, it’s just. . . Whoa. Anyway, great to have you back!!

You…don’t like Anne of Green Gables???? No. Please, no.
I didn’t understand Anne of Green Gables until I became a writer, but I liked it even before then. But, did you read it before you started writing? If so, why not try it again? (and the rest of the series. 😉 )
POLLYANNA IS AMAZING.
I liked the What Katy Did series, but I don’t rem…[Read more]

Rochellaine replied to the topic Swear Words In Stories? in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 7 months ago
@ariel-ashira I’m not going to give you a cut and dried answer here, because, like everyone else said, I don’t know if there is a specific answer.
One thing I will say, is that you would probably want to stay away from the curse words which include God’s name. Other curse words can be debatable, and I know that it’s your character saying it and…[Read more]

I read–or rather my mum read to me–Heidi many years ago. I don’t remember being particularly impressed by it and I kind of lumped it under Pollyanna/Anne of Green Gables/Elsie Dinsmore/What Katy Did and all the other girl books I didn’t like, but I should definitely try it again.
And yes, I’m currently reading it. (and referring…[Read more]

@seekjustice I usually look up any new musical you mention immediately and listen to at least a few bars, but I can’t right now because I’m waiting in the back while my dad gives a seminar. (I love it when he gives seminars, because I get to sing while people are coming in. 😉 ) So, I’ll just have to ignore the “music” side of it for now and a…[Read more]

Ah, my new favourite at the moment is The Secret Garden.

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #20 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 7 months ago
@seekjustice I’m going back to our old question: Have you listened to any new musicals lately? 😉
@xonos-darkgrate Well, if you’re here now, the normal question is “What are you working on?” to start things out. 🙂 So, are you working on anything at the moment? Research, outlining, planning, brainstorming, or actually writing count. 😉

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #20 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 7 months ago
@xonos-darkgrate Writer’s Corner is a free-for-all where we fangirl(boy) over things and argue quite a lot, usually over topics that have nothing to do with writing.
That’s good. Well, I’m not writing anything yet…but hopefully I will be soon.

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #20 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 7 months ago
@seekjustice Hi!! That’s okay. I was too. 😉 How’s it going? I’ve been desperately waiting for someone to be actually writing instead of just planning because I need to have some word wars. My book isn’t progressing, and that’s the best way I can think of to force it to write itself. 😛
