You know you’re a writer when you find yourself fixing the grammar on some lyric slides in ProPresenter.
“There’s… no… punctuation…. Must… add…punctuation!!!!”

Oh right. I remember you giving me feedback about how it did not really feel like a parody.
So my story is actually not really a parody but a political/historical romance with a comedic bent? I’m not very sure anymore. I’m fine if it does not end up really being a parody anyway. I simply started writing this story with the mind to…[Read more]

Hey guys sorry for vanishing again!
@catwing Yes, my noon is your midnight 😛
@rochellaine Yes I’ve read the doc and left some comments. Take it as a not-so-subtle reminder that I’m still waiting for your comments on my doc. 😭
@seekjustice I forgot to ask but am I going to be one of your beta readers for your second draft of SFI?

Please do. This talk is scheduled until noon.

Not really. Can’t really work on anything now. Just here to alleviate some boredom. 😛

valtmy replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 9 months ago
Yep. I’m attending a talk right now so I have some time between speakers. 😛

valtmy replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 9 months ago
Yeah. I’ll be here a bit before work.

Hey. Sorry for disappearing yesterday. When work comes, it comes. 😛

Great! How’s poor Bathshua now? Is she still miserable?
Yes, I’m a fan of Disney. Not as much as I once was but I still like many of the classics. So what is the conclusion? 😛

Hey sorry for not seeing this until now but I’m praying for you and your friend’s family.
My situation is not the same as yours but I recently had a major depressive episode myself so I kind of know how you feel. I have been feeling as though I am unable to handle anything; my work, my writing, my relationships with other people. I just…[Read more]

All right. Bye! 😀

Haha. Don’t worry. It’s not just the parents. I don’t think any of my characters enjoy being written by me. 😅
-
valtmy replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 9 months ago
All right 🙂
But as my story explicitly takes place in a fictional version of historical Korea and not Joseon, Goryeo, Silla, Baekje or any of the real Korean kingdoms, does that make any historical inaccuracies OK? 😛
Yes, I am a parent-murderer. Is it that shocking? I told you that my WIPÂ isn’t a romantic comedy.…[Read more]

valtmy replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 9 months ago
Oh dear. I hope you will never read up on Korean history else you will find all sorts of historical inaccuracies when you beta read my WIP. 😛
It’s OK. You still have a far lower parent body count compared to me. 😛
-
valtmy replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 9 months ago
But lots of Disney and YA fiction have parents that are “dead already” so that’s not an excuse. That still counts as killing so your parent body count is three at least. 😛
Haha I never minded the fact that there was not much opera singing in Phantom because that’s not really my cup of tea. But I think for the casting…[Read more]

Two as in Chessy’s birth mother and Justice’s father? But Justice’s father was kind of a villain as well so does he really count?
So since you’ve made sure to create parents who are alive, do you think you have made them useful too? 😛

valtmy replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 9 months ago
Bye!
I thought parents in YA fiction are always either dead or useless. 😛

My WIP. It’s getting to the end of the despair (for now) for my MC so lots of cute moments ahead. 😊 But I’ve been looking forward to writing this part for so long that I’m anxious about it.
Just curious. I know there are a lot of dark themes in both Hunchback and Les Mis but why do you find one more depressing than…[Read more]
