I think it’s fine now 😛 It was rather humorous though.
I’m doing research for a short story I’m writing and I’m also reading about Elsie Dinsmore. Have you ever read the Elsie Dinsmore books?
I would like to read it 🙂

Hello! I didn’t get your earlier message, but I’m here now. I’m struggling with Pinterest in a rather embarrassing fight, in which an inappropriate pin appears and I attempt to ask Pinterest not to show me such things but my hand has gone numb from lying on top of it and as such end up saving said pin to my boards…[Read more]

@rochellaine *sighs* I have to go. Nice to talk to you for a little bit, anyway.

@rochellaine Nope, never heard of him.

@rochellaine 😉 What music are you listening to?

Ariel Ashira replied to the topic Writers' Corner #20 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 7 months ago
@rochellaine Yeah, I am still here. Not working on anything in particular. Just checking email and looking up a couple things. How about you?

@rochellaine I’m here.

#19 started acting funny, so I figured it was time for a new corner.
Ladies and gents (or, really it’s just ladies here, I guess), I present to you the Writers’ Corner #20! (I feel like this number should be celebrated or something 😉 ).

Sorry, my computer ran out of battery, but I’m back again!
Yes, I definitely base characters on people! Usually not purposefully though. I usually just realise, oh! So and so is a lot like so and so.
But I love when those disclaimers are in historical fiction novels, where the characters sometimes are real people.

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 7 months ago
Maybe authors should start putting disclaimers in the front of their books:
We do not condone the behaviours of any character that seems slightly antagonistic, and nor we do take any responsibility for any of their evil deeds.
I know, poor Curt didn’t deserve anything that I forced him to endure.
Yes, it’s such an entertaining way…[Read more]

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 7 months ago
People don’t actually expect us to take responsibility for our bad characters, do they?
Well, of course Curt did none of those things. Because he was a small angel. He definitely fell into the disabled angelic character trope that I see so many people complaining about 😛

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 7 months ago
Unless you become ruthless. Like me 😛
Haha no. But he might as well be, down to the fact that he’s Irish and has an accent. But he’s a character from a very old book of mine (and don’t even bother asking to read it, because. Nope. No chance. No one is ever reading that thing).

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 7 months ago
Poor Bathshua. She doesn’t deserve any of the things you throw at her (ah, look at me. Such a hypocrite!)
I’m currently reading over a really long and old character sheet I filled out for a character so completely perfect that I cringe now. I’m supposed to be taking the questions and filling out the sheet for another character…[Read more]

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 7 months ago
It’s two o’clock, so I guess it is afternoon. And yep, I’m free for a bit. How are you? How’s Bathshua going?

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 7 months ago
I think I ended up watching all of it, but over several weeks and not in chronological order 😛 I know, we’ve discussed Dirk Bogarde before 🙂
Yep, I look forward to watching it properly.

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 7 months ago
Thank you! I am indeed. And guess what? My mum managed to track down a copy of the 1958 version of A Tale of Two Cities, which I hadn’t been able to find anywhere. I was pretty excited about that.

@rochellaine @ariel-ashira I’m here for a little bit. A short story thing popped up today and the deadline is the 10th. (I don’t have to do it, but the deadline was extended, so I’m thinking of a story idea to fit.)
I was sick for a few days. That’s why I was gone. 🙁
But I’m better now. - Load More
