Well, I’ve never dared them, partly because they’re the Christian staples and I don’t want to offend anyone by saying I didn’t like them 😛

How’s things?

@rochellaine

Ah, that’s a relief!

Do you think I’ve read Janette Oke? Me, who rather….dislikes, shall we say, romance? No, I haven’t 😛

@catwing

Look me in the eyes and tell me that you don’t 😛

@rochellaine Are you around this afternoon/evening? I feel like maybe you disintegrated or something.

@seekjustice @rochellaine @alia @dekreel @jenwriter17 I’m going to be on in a while. Writing my book, a bit behind my goal, but I finished my blog post for tomorrow. 😀

@rochellaine

You around? I’ll be here for half an hourish.

@jenwriter17 @rochellaine @seekjustice @alia I’m writing!

@rochellaine Yup, on Lulu! 😀 I have quite a TBR, but I’ll let you know when I start reading it. And when I finish it, I’ll probably post a review on Lulu and/or Goodreads. 🙂

@rochellaine

I like the poem too. It’s one of my favourites to recite and when we visited Barcoo I couldn’t stop myself, because everytime I hear the word Barcoo it gets stuck in my head. It’s “A Bush Christening” by Banjo Paterson, if you’re interested.

Okay dokey

Good night!

@rochellaine

Im not on right now but…

guess what I ordered and just arrived? 😉

@rochellaine

Righto. Mooniji and Narara are the only ones I took straight from Australian towns, the rest are all some sort of mixing up.

Kalamooney was a mixture of Kala–which is a fairly common Aboriginal prefix and Mooney Mooney, which is an actual town, believe it or not.

Traumlant is actually the only one which isn’t Australian Aboriginal…[Read more]

@alia @rochellaine

It’s basically about the princess/queen of said kingdom who is accused of being disconnected from her people, who are starving while she gambles away the kingdom’s money etc. So she orders a girl from the country to come and live with her and teach her about the ways of the people…

I’ve come up with a few different ideas,…[Read more]

@rochellaine, I have. its part of what gave me the idea for the narrator guild. And thank you for the cliches. if you think of more feel free to tell me

@seekjustice, @rochellaine, I’ve gotta head to bed. talk to y’all later

@rochellaine, you were fairly close. She is in her late fifties to early sixties. A mother of five children, three died before the age of ten and the younger two were essentially kidnapped by the priests. She is clever, uses things to her advantage.

I have a character but the name isn’t set yet. She is for Decisions, a fairly major character with…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Maybe cliché isn’t the right word, maybe archetype describes it better. Usually in terms of your characters, they fit quite neatly into the prearranged boxes, if you know what I mean? Maybe I just get confused because your stories are humorous and have clichés, so I tend to blend the two separate concepts together.

I quite enjoyed y…[Read more]

@rochellaine, I like that analyzation. And your ramblings are amusing

@rochellaine, its going fantastic. What do you think of the name Ceer? What type of person would you think she is with that name?

@rochellaine

I thought you were a fan of clichés? (definitely most of your short stories have struck me as humorous cliché sort of stories) Maybe that’s just me. I definitely thought you liked anything cliché though.

@alia

That’s up to you. You just gave me a name with no context and I said the first thing that came into my head, but if the ch…[Read more]

@alia

It could be interesting, clichés are fun to play with! @rochellaine likes doing clichés and making them humorous, so she might have some tips for you! My course of action tends to be killing them…violently. But they are a lot of fun to play with. Have you ever read anything by Terry Pratchett?
