@rochellaine How’s things?

@jenwriter17

Curse Pinterest! *returns to scrolling through boards*

Hey, look. I found this, it describes us so well.

@jenwriter17 Hey! I should be doing that too…but no, I’m kinda beta reading and somehow ended up looking at Marvel memes on Pinterest.

I don’t even like Marvel memes, so this is pretty depressing.

@rochellaine @jenwriter17 @dekreel @ariel-ashira @valtmy

Anyone around? I’m doing a bit of beta reading.

@rochellaine

It is a lot of fun! The first time I showed it to one of my siblings, I can’t remember which one it was now, they thought it was “Go home with morning tea” though. I guess that shows where their mind is 99% of the time 😛 I’m listening to My Mother’s Wedding Day now and that’s rather ridiculous 😀 (Actually, the other day I was…[Read more]

I can’t speak for the exact make of their suits or anything, but yes, for the most part it is. It’s got a few tweaks and things, to help it flow more smoothly, but its hardly taking liberties with actual history, which I really appreciated.

I didn’t know you had a record player, but it doesn’t surprise me at all. I’m listening to…[Read more]

@rochellaine

It’s about King George VI, who had a severe stammer and his speech therapist, who helps him with all his speeches. It’s set in the thirties, which is why I thought you might like it. It’s pretty clean too (though, the speech therapist is…well, Australian. Thus, some of his methods are also very Australian. IE, “Swear at things when…[Read more]

(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]

@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]

@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 😛

@jenwriter17

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

@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 😛

@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.

@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.

@valtmy

That is unfortunate 🙁

@valtmy

🙂 how’s your current WIP going?

@Rochellaine

Goodnight.

@rochellaine

Me too. I’ve had some really bad asthma attacks which obviously haven’t been all that good for me.

That sounds like a highly fascinating operetta.

@valtmy

Speaking of asthma, I’ve always wanted to give a stereotypical fantasy hero asthma just to see them deal with it 😛

That is, if you manage to remember it.
