I’m done now, @jess , sorry. :/

Mallory O'Bier replied to the topic Writers' Corner #3 in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 5 months ago
I’ll be writing for the next two hours, most likely, @jess , so I’ll keep an eye out for you. 🙂

I’m still writing, @jess !

That’s great, @bluejay ! My work on my assignment is going slow …

Mallory O'Bier replied to the topic Writers' Corner #3 in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 5 months ago
I was taking a break when you replied, @bluejay , and didn’t see it ’till now, but I’m still writing for 2 hours if you still want to join.

Mallory O'Bier replied to the topic Writers' Corner #3 in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 5 months ago
I’m going to be researching/studying/taking notes for 2 hours, which I guess, sorta counts as writing, if anyone wants to join me. 🙂

@kate-flournoy How cute! That’s so funny.
You’re right! They would probably classify it with the triceratops. 🙂
Have you heard of the pterodactyls in Indonesia? They glow in the dark, and people are very superstitious about them. It’s so strange that a creature can be alive and well in one part of the world, and yet in civilized lands people…[Read more]

@the-bean That’s very interesting. So different from our system. It’s neat that you actually have Christian parties. Here, many Christians are Republican, but I don’t know if the Republican party itself is Christian.
@anna-brie Uhoh, you have the marriage issue over there, too? It’s scary here. If you’re in business, you literally have to…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy That’s neat! How small were they? Were they able to fly? I always thought the treasure hoarding was weird- why would an animal want money? But that makes sense. I wonder if there are any still alive? There are dinosaurs (or dragons, if you prefer), still alive in other parts of the world.

@warrioroftherealm Oh, I hope I get to read it some day! The Peleg Chronicles are the only books I’ve found that have that kind of dragon in them, and I’d like to read more books like that.

@warrioroftherealm I read the Pathfinder when I was 10 or 11. The story was great, but I hated the ending. I cried. I liked the pathfinder, and I was so mad at- was her name Megan?- for marrying Jacques instead. Now that I’m eighteen, I would probably be much more understanding, come to think of it. 🙂

Christian, first of all. I have strong political convictions, and at the same time I’m not really into politics.
Anti-federalist – me too! History books say they were impractical, but I don’t care. Conservative Republican. I like the Tea Party people. What is Libertarian? It sounds like “liberal”, but it can’t be. Ummm, what else? I liked Ted…[Read more] -

@kate-flournoy Oh yes, most dragon legends come from dinosaurs. It’s fun to research that. Have you watched Dinosaurs and the Bible by Dr. Kent Hovind? If you haven’t, it’s very interesting. Dragons like the ones in Beowulf or St. George and the Dragon are very obviously dinosaurs. However, the creatures with magical powers, telepathic power…[Read more]

I’m writing/studying for 30 minutes if anyone wants to join.

I’m sorry, @bluejay , I’m not writing right now, but I probably will be later. I’m waiting for some feedback on an assignment before I proceed on the next one.

@clairec Hi from America! I hope you are doing well. 🙂

Hi @sarah-h! I’ll tag @bluejay too, so she can see some of my news. I am doing well. Summer is now in full swing in Queensland. average lows temperatures of mid 30s (Celsius. in Fahrenheit, that’s high 80s) and a bit more rain than usual. Hanging out for the end of the school year. You lucky things don’t have that anymore. I discovered I can’t…[Read more]
@clairec Summer rain…that sounds wonderful. Here, it’s late fall and starting to get cold. “Vintage literary” does sound cool, but I’m not exactly sure what it means. Old books? Classics? Wait, are you seventeen now? Happy birthday!!!!! 🙂
Yeah, HAPPY BIRTHDAY @clairec 🙂
@clairec @bluejay Right now we’re watching a series on Australia. I finally understand why you call it “the bush” instead of “forest”. 🙂
What’s the series called? Good, glad you get to see our wonderful homeland. It’s an awesome place to live.
East, West, Home is Best! 🙂
@sarah-h
Okay! I am very sorry that this is so belated. I’d written it in a document and forgot to post it. @sarah-h (and @bluejay), here we go! *takes a big breath and lets it out slowly*
We have seals and sea lions. (look them up, they’re actually pretty cute!) Living in Queensland, I have been to the Great Barrier Reef multiple times. Snorkeling there…[Read more]
Oh, @bluejay, it’s called Wild Australia. Are there any videos/documentaries/etc. on Australia you would recommend?
Yeah, I’m sorry this was so long… 🙁 Vintage library, @sarah-h, basically, it was a dinner party with food from books, 1920s to 1950s costumes, and many other book themed things… so yeah, it was awesome. 🙂
@clairec I’m sorry I’m so late; I was on a camping trip. Wow! Thank you for writing this! It sounds like some of the animals are pretty friendly; that’s so neat! I’m glad you left that town before the bush fire came. That sounds scary. Does Tasmania look any different from Victoria? I always imagined it as greener than the mainland, but I’ve never…[Read more]
