Okay, I’ll put the rest of the series on my Christmas wish list 😛

I know. I didn’t know she was brilliant. But did she have a daughter who wrote too? It might have been her daughter’s books.

Oooh, the Bounty is an Australian thing!

@rochellaine

Yep, I managed to find them all on Koorong.

I’ll definitely have to see if I can find the rest of those 😀

I would love to speed-read through your library 😛

I think I had some of Grace Livingston Hill’s books, but unfortunately I had to cull them. Whoops 😛 (But hey, I have so many books that my bookcases are bursting at the…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I have the first two Viking Quest books and I enjoyed them when I read them several years ago. Do you know how many more there are in the series?

Oh, I’ve got one of Robert Elmer’s books too! A Way Across the Sea I think it’s called, and I really, really like that one. I’ve never got anymore of his books because they aren’t in p…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Okay! I’ll see you later 😀

@rochellaine

Yep, that’s what I mean. I really want some modern stuff which isn’t romance, but I know you mostly read older books, so I don’t mind if you’re suggestions are older.

(It was a few days ago. Sunday/Saturday maybe?)

@rochellaine

Just frustrating and I need to learn not to make mountains out of molehills. *Sigh*

Ah yes, I’d love that list! You were also going to suggest a few modern his-fics too, because you mentioned you’d read some good ones (and bad ones too, but I’m not interested in them 😛 )

@jenwriter17

Sorry Jen that I never got back to you (happy birthday by the way)

I think the numbers already posted are a good fit. It needs to be small, but there obviously needs to be enough people to give a variety of criticism. As to actually making it, I’m not really sure. I would suggest looking into something like Google hangouts (though…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Okay 😀

Ah, it’s one of those days where all the small things seem to be going wrong and its very frustrating 😉

@rochellaine

I didn’t get your notification till just now. Are you still around? Will you be around soon?

@rochellaine

Yeah, me either. I think it would kinda ruin her character!

I forgot we were talking about Jonathan and had to look at that sentence twice to work out what you were talking about 😛

Good night!

@rochellaine

Yeah, I’ve read a few series like that and I know it can be done, sometimes I just wish the author would move onto something else though. However, I have my Kai book I want to write and I love the Oliver Twist/Waif idea so I’ll probably wrote that eventually.

I’m half and half over whether I should give Chessy a child though 😛

I…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I’m not even one of those super obsessed people. I find them confusing! I think its quite interesting though.

I have thought about that. I am kind of wary of those people who just can’t let go of their characters though and just keep going and going and going with their series. But that is a cool idea. If I get some more ideas, I’ll…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Oh I see. Well, the idea behind the MBTI is that its about how people think rather than how they actually act, though obviously thought influences actions.

For example, the difference between Sensing and Intuition is whether someone processes information based on what they can sense and what they know to be factual, whereas…[Read more]

@jenwriter17

Bye!

@Rochellaine

Introverts only joke about that (I think anyway). I quite like people actually. I would argue though that labelling people as extrovert/introvert is helpful sometimes. I have extrovert friends who just don’t understand the need to be left alone, so in that case reading about introverts would be helpful for them to…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 Well, out of only my four mainest characters, Chessy’s the only extrovert, and even then…she’s kind of an introverted extrovert 😛

@jenwriter17 I remember Jax, but I don’t remember the characters vividly enough to really say if they’re this type or that. (I have an overabundance of introverts too! I guess I find it hard to imagine what it’s like being extroverted!)

@jenwriter17

Oh, that’s good. Mary Poppins is very awesome (or indeed, practically perfect).

(The concept of the movie is that there’s a curse on the Romanovs, which is why they all died. And the curse is trying to kill Anastasia. So it’s portrayed in a negative light…but yeah).

@rochellaine

Well, I…find it highly annoying. Like,…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 Oh, what types are you thinking so far? Hopefully, I’ll get time to do my promised blog post today, but we’ll see.

Have you seen Mary Poppins? I much prefer the Broadway/Australian version to the movie, but the movie is pretty good. the Anastasia animated movie is also really good (as long as you’re okay with a few scary moments and…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 Oh, cool! I don’t think I know anyone I would class as a ISTJ. I’m pretty sure I know people of most other types. Though, I do know one girl and I’m not sure if she’s a INTJ, INTP or ISTJ….Once you get into Myers Briggs there’s no coming back.

And yep, it’s that novel!

@rochellaine

Nope, I haven’t.

Dear friend, you should know…[Read more]

@jenwriter17

*pats you on the head…or some other equally patronising thing*

I’m reading about characters with the ISTJ type at the moment, because my heroine for my new novel is an ISTJ and I don’t have a whole lot of experience dealing with them.

Unfortunately no. There’s been a few sprinkles, but nothing at all substantial. Keep…[Read more]
