@seekjustice yeah it took me a really long time to get used to a Mac (I had a Dell laptop with Windows before). My older brother (who’s into computers and all that) really dislikes Apple products and jokes around with me about how I ‘strayed from the path.’ 😉 We’ve had conversations like this:

Me: *is typing away happily on Mac*

My brother:…[Read more]

Yeah, my parents have a Mac which I found really difficult to use, which is why they ended up buying me my own computer which Word works much better on 🙂

That’s one of the great aspects of Scrivener in my opinion.

@seekjustice I used to use Word too, but on my MacBook it’s acts kinda funny. So I switched to Google docs, but I think I’m gonna like writing in Scrivener. 🙂 I really like that I can keep my research bits and everything in one place and handy as I write

@jenwriter17

Oh, Scrivener is awesome! I usually do my first drafts in Microsoft Word, but I find Scrivener really useful for editing and sorting things out.

@seekjustice Cool. 🙂

I’m also trying to figure out Scrivener, which I got about a week ago. It’s taking me a bit to figure it out (with the help of a tutorial), but so far it’s super duper cool! 😀

Thank you for the nanowrimo advice, by the way. I didn’t get the chance last night to thank ya 😉

@jenwriter17

I’m actually getting ready to go into town and do some shopping for my mum.

@seekjustice Okay. 🙂 watcha working on?

@jenwriter17

Life’s a bit crazy today so I may disappear without warning, but I’ll join you for a bit.

@rochellaine @seekjustice @ariel-ashira @alia @dragon-snapper @valtmy @catwing

What?…I can be on two day in a row?! O.O

Heloooo! I am working on more outlining/writing letters/getting distracted. Anyone wanna join me? (but maybe not in that last one 😉 )

@rochellaine

We have to sign up before we turn eighteen. At least, I did, and I’m pretty sure its mandatory to do it before eighteen. I believe in America you don’t have to vote, (is that right?) but in Australia you have to.

The safe children policies are basically to stop child abuse. And you have to do the training for everything you get i…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Oh yes! That too 😀 It’s really annoying 😛

Child safety ones. Do you have those sort of things in America?

I don’t know if that’s true or not, but that woman is doing a bad job at it 😀

@ariel-ashira Hello!

@jenwriter17 I’ve only done it once, last year, but I’ve done the Camps four times (I think). I think the best advice is to…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira Yes, it is quite awesome. 😀 My parents and I are going to look over it together, then I hope to sign it. 🙂

@rochellaine Oh, I see. Word wars are so much fun, I’m looking forward to them too. 🙂

@seekjustice How many years have you done NaNo? Any tips for a first-timer? 😉

@ariel-ashira Hello there. 🙂 how are ya?

I have to leave now, all. See you this weekend maybe. (sorry I had to leave as soon as you came, Ariel 🙁 )

@jenwriter17 😀

@rochellaine

My sister and I are watching a movie on Alexandria and Nicholas, and Alexandria sounds strangely southern American 😀 At least, she doesn’t sound Russian. 😛

@seekjustice I know what you mean 😉

@jenwriter17

I’m extremely tired of it all. Things were much simply six weeks ago 😛

@rochellaine Oh are you doing NaNo this year? 🙂

@seekjustice Oh my yes, when I turned 18 a lot of things started happening (I had to fill out a lot of stuff too ;).

@rochellaine I need word wars too. But I’m stuck with filling out heaps and heaps of online forms because a sudden phenomena (ie, turning eighteen) has struck me and goodness knows what I might do now.

@rochellaine How’s things?

@rochellaine Yay we’re all here at the same time! 😀 Welcome!
