@jenwriter17 Aw, too bad! 🙁 See you later!

@seekjustice No I haven’t.  What’s it about?

@jenwriter17

(a tad is a very long way in Australia. Just down the road is open to interpretation) It’s lovely! I’m listening to the Porcelain album now. I have a young friend who I’m going to mention Helen Jane Long to, because if he hasn’t heard of her, I think he’d like her.  Bye!

@rochellaine

Hello! Now, I have to ask you, have you seen…[Read more]

@seekjustice lol, yeah if I just lived a tad closer 😀 (I wish we did live closer though…)

the aviators is one of my favorites!!!!!

@rochellaine Ah, you came just as I’m leaving!

Well, I’ll leave you two to chat, but I have to leave. 🙁 I think I’ll be on this Friday/Saturday though.

@jenwriter17

Well, I’m a bit obsessed with it at the moment. If you lived a tad closer I’d invite you over to watch it with me.

I have no idea. I don’t have Netflix so I don’t keep up to date with what they’re doing. Though I did hear Amazon was making a LoTR tv show about Aragorn or something.

I just listened to The aviators by Helen Jane Long…[Read more]

@seekjustice @jenwriter17 Hello, I’m here!

@seekjustice

Ah, Prince Caspian. I haven’t watched that in a long time…

What’s this I hear about Netflix doing a show series based on Narnia???

@jenwriter17

I find doing sort of “mini-plots” on sticky notes and just tossing ideas around is really helpful for pushing through the uninspired bits.

If obsessively rewatching Prince Caspian and The King’s Speech counts as prep, I’m doing brilliantly 😛

@seekjustice It’s coming along okay. It’s hard for me to outline when I don’t have a spurt of inspiration and a rush of creativity, so sometimes I’m forcing myself to make sure I’m ready for NaNo. But it’s going pretty good. 🙂 I’m still not sure if my schedule will allow me to do NaNo this year, but we’ll see. i’ll keep you posted 😉

How about…[Read more]

@jenwriter17

Cool! I’ll check those out. How’s your NaNo prep going? Are you doing any prep?

@seekjustice

😀

I really love music by Helen Jane Long, Ludovico Einaudi, and the Piano Guys. I’ve heard a little bit of Yiruma too, and Audiomachine is awesome for making playlists to listen to while book writing.

@jenwriter17

By the way, do you have any suggestions for good instrumental soundtracks to listen to?

@jenwriter17

😀 And you reminded me, I really gotta sit down and write some posts too. I’ll do that once I’ve put the washing away so I can actually sit on my chair 😛

@seekjustice Awesome! I actually just got done doing the same thing XD

@jenwriter17

Hey! I’m folding the washing but I’ll join you anyway.

@jenwriter17

Hey! I’m folding the washing but I’ll join you anyway.

@seekjustice @rochelaine @valtmy @alia @ariel-ashira @kaya-young @dragon-snapper @dekreel Heloooooo! I am outlining and working on blog posts. 🙂 Anyone wanna join me?

@xonos-darkgate I don’t think I’ve met you before, but hello 🙂

You know @dekreel don’t you?

To answer your question, @rochellaine, since Xonos obviously missed it, yes, we know each other on another forum. (Although I think we met each other on Kingdom Pen once or twice beforehand. . .)

@valtmy

I’m the opposite. I can’t get anything finished without planning. Though I still have days when I have no idea what’s happening next.

Well…I do believe there’s a difference between purposeful ridiculousness and lame ridiculousness, which in all likelihood is what my stories are.

@valtmy

Self-criticism has got to be the worst thing about being a writer…or being a human really.

I’m a bit of an obsessive plotter for that very reason. I tend to get lost otherwise and end up with ridiculous plots. Or lack thereof.
