@jenwriter17 I’m so sorry! I completely forgot about answering your questions about the Great Depression! 🙁
I have a question of my own, though. In what year exactly is your book set? Because the Great Depression covered a whole decade, and I’d like to get my facts accurate. 😉

@seekjustice We eat crackers with toppings and dips all the time too. (Biscuit is a totally different food here.) The crackers we eat are mostly Saltine types, if you’ve ever hear of those…and I’m rather doubtful? Snacks don’t seem to have the same names across the globe even if they are similar. 😛 The most famous example of that I think is…[Read more]

@seekjustice Haha. 🙂
In my family we usually stay up pretty late, and basically the rule is as long as you can be up in time to do school in the morning you can stay up as late as you want. 😛 Some of us like to stay up later than others.
It varies. 😉 Last night I had yogurt with frozen blackberries, and tonight it’s tea and some sort of c…[Read more]

@seekjustice Haha. Once around Christmastime I put on a playlist of my favorites on my phone and was playing it while doing housework, and my mom got really confused because it was going from a hymn to a folk song to a Christmas song to a song from a musical. She had to stop me and ask if it was a playlist or what, because the songs totally d…[Read more]

@seekjustice Since churches are made up of imperfect humans, I guess every church must have it’s imperfections. But it’s nice to know we can grow in Christ.
So, you didn’t answer my question about whether you were listening to anything today. 😉 By the way, what made you leave so suddenly earlier? Lunch?

@seekjustice I always get scared when someone asks me to describe something, because I’m horrible at descriptions. I feel like I didn’t answer your question… 😛

@seekjustice Yes, the words are more similar to the older hymns. I suppose this is something that only someone who has studied music extensively would notice, but the style of music is rather different from that of the traditional hymns. I can’t analyze it, as my brother could. I can only have a vague notion that something doesn’t sound ri…[Read more]

@seekjustice Don’t take for certain what I said about “How Deep the Father’s Love.” I actually don’t remember what it sounds like or any of the lyrics or anything. I don’t think it’s in our hymnbook, and that’s why I don’t know it better than I do. I have no real idea whether it’s a bridge hymn or not. 😉 That was just a guess.

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #18 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 10 months ago
@seekjustice Oh yes, no, my headache’s gone, thankfully! 😀
Yes, I know most of those. I think “How Deep the Father’s Love” might be what we call a “bridge” hymn, and we don’t sing it possibly for that reason. I’m not sure. I’ve heard it a couple of times when we go to conferences and stuff. “Come Thou Fount” is one we sing quite often. 🙂 …[Read more]

@seekjustice Ooooh!! I just got your document! Haha, it would be very unusual for me to be asleep at ten thirty p.m., wouldn’t it? 😛
I just spent a lovely hour and a half singing hymns with a couple of my sisters and brothers at the piano. 😀 😀 😀 Do you ever do that with siblings or friends? I wonder if you know many of the same hymns we…[Read more]

@seekjustice Oh, haha! How silly of me. Of course June 1st would be Sunday for you too. So you get to start a day before I do, but you end before I do too. 🙂
Not really. Talking to you about singing groups last night reminded me of a singing group I like, so I’ve listened to a couple of songs by a folk type singing group from the 50s…[Read more]

@seekjustice I can chat for a little bit, but I’ve got a headache, so I might randomly decide to take a nap without giving you notice. 😉 Just warning you ahead of time. 😛
Did you realize that both times this year Camp NaNoWriMo started on a Sunday for me and a Monday for you, so you got to start day of and I have to wait? 😛

@seekjustice 😛 The first one I thought of was Sapphilon, which feels like a floral name, and would go with their theme of floral language. Two simpler ones I thought of were Quire and Querde, but I don’t think those sound quite right. 🙂 Anyway, I’m not an expert shipper, (Oh yes, I’m sure there is such a thing,) just a homeschooled writer w…[Read more]

@seekjustice I read your blog post. Apparently you’re trying to think of a ship name for Sapphire and Quillon? 😀

@jenwriter17 @valtmy It’s late, but I’ll be here for a short while. 🙂 Are either of you working?
Jen, I just submitted my comments on your document. I’d made them earlier as I was reading, but didn’t complete them until now just to be sure it was fine with you.

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #18 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 10 months ago
@jenwriter17 Cool. 🙂
I’m reading your book today. Do you want comments or am I just reading it for fun? 😉

@seekjustice I think I’m going to say goodnight now. Sorry it’s a bit earlier than it used to be, but…it is past one o’clock here. 😛
Guess you probably won’t be on tomorrow, and I won’t be on the next day, but see you Monday/Tuesday. Goodnight!

@valtmy Ah, I’ve been having the same problem. For a really long time. 😛 I loved the beginning of my western and now it feels boring.
But I just remembered! I still haven’t read @jenwriter17‘s book! I think I’m going to read that now.
@seekjustice Well, hello again. 🙂 Did you read Jen’s book?

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #18 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 10 months ago
@valtmy Aaand, I just got distracted too. 🙂 Are you still here?
@seekjustice Back yet?

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #18 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 10 months ago
@seekjustice There have actually been a lot of studies on it, and we have several books on the subject…which I haven’t read… 😛
What are you working on now? Still editing your short stories?
@valtmy Hello! How are you doing?
