@seekjustice Okay, that makes sense.  I’m not writing fanfiction, though.  🙂  I want it to be my own story with just the inspiration from the movie.

What’s your essay topic?

@epicaddie2 Hi!  What’s your topic?

@seekjustice Never heard of it – but I just looked it up and I see the ending has someone named Archy dying.  So…I’m assuming you made something happen like it did to Justice in your book, where he didn’t actually die? 🙂  I did that when there was a firing squad in my Civil War story and a Confederate spy was “killed”.  His waking up scene is…[Read more]

@seekjustice Hi!  So…I think I asked if you liked Lady Jane Grey and if you’d gotten to know Carousel at all yet?

@seekjustice It’s officially been three(ish) hours. 🙂  I’m back; are you?

@jenwriter17 Sorry you couldn’t be here.  I think I’ll be here tomorrow.

Signing out now.  But if anyone asks I might come back…

@jenwriter17 You back yet?

@seekjustice Okay, bye!  See you later!

@seekjustice I got the idea when I watched a movie, and there was this girl I loved, who I thought was a main character, but then she ended up in despair and crying in her last scene, and the end of the movie – probably ten minutes – was without her completely!  I got so mad and decided I could do a better than those horrible mean unfeeling…[Read more]

@seekjustice

It’s always helpful to be alive

Wow.

Okay, I’m working on a short story set in the 50s.  I’ve had it going for a while, but a few weeks ago I lost about a thousand words and got discouraged.  I was listening to some 50s music on Saturday and was reminded of it, so I decided to try again.  So far it’s going pretty well… 🙂

I re…[Read more]

@seekjustice When I’d missed you for several days I checked your profile, which said you’d been signed in recently, so then I knew you weren’t dead… 😀

But you still hadn’t posted in a week, which was why I messaged you.  Glad you’re back!

I’ll be here for a little while – not sure quite how long – and I’ll probably be around again in about…[Read more]

Oh @seekjustice *squeals* you’re back!  I missed you!

But wait…you posted nearly an hour ago.  Are you still here?

@dekreel I don’t have anything to add to the many wonderful things said here already, but I’ll just let you know that I struggle with the same thing (doesn’t everyone at some point?) and I’m praying for you!

@jenwriter17 I also have no experience in writing for film. 🙁  I have a little (very little) experience with stage plays, and my mom is really good at that, but as for movies – well, that’s quite different.

But as I was thinking I remembered something I had once heard/thought about the difference between books and movies.

A book is written…[Read more]

@supermonkey42 Bye!  Thanks for joining me!

Anyone else still here?

@supermonkey42 Changing from third person to first person in the middle of a story is not the same as changing the name of one of your characters.  That means MAJOR editing work! 😀  You’ve seriously done that?

I have written from several secondary male characters POVs, but never had one as the main character yet.  I’m going to have to learn how…[Read more]

@supermonkey I guess you could call it semi-dystopian?  Or just simply futuristic?

First person or third person?  Is your protagonist a boy or a girl? 😀  I like asking questions.

@jenwriter17 I hope so! 🙂 But I’m never sure.

@supermonkey42 I wrote a book like that once.  It was supposed to be a time travel story, but focusing on the different cultures of the time periods, rather than the science of time travel.  The time travel element ended up taking over the book more than I intended…so it’s technically sci-fi now.  😀  But I set the contemporary parts in 202…[Read more]

@supermonkey42 Cool!  What genre?

I’m doing a his-fic short story I’ve had started for a while, but got discouraged from when I lost about a thousand words.  I was listening to a song today that reminded me of it, so I decided to try again. 🙂

Hellooooo…I’m writing!  Anyone around?
