I’ve got a weird question for you Americans. In Australia, we usually walk on the same side of the footpath as we drive on the road, that being the right side. My family has currently bamboozled themselves wondering whether you walk on the left side of the footpath or the right side. 😛

Yeah, that’s what I was thinking. I’ve found that I enjoy very few books/movies with absent villains (and even ones like Lord of the Rings that have a largely absent villain in Sauron have very personal villains in Denethor, Gollum and Saruman).
I’m still scanning the archives of Puritan America, but for some reason I’m not thinking that…[Read more]

I see. I like giving my MCs very personal connections to the villains. Mostly because it helps in making conversations with the villains not-boring (How many interesting ways can, “I’m stopping you because you’re evil!” or, “I’m stopping you to save the world!” be said?) 😀
Yes, an ironic one would work. Same goes for a fitting one…[Read more]

Well, the human antagonist is more a personification of the force of nature antagonist I had before. I thought that would help make it a bit more personal, rather than just a vague threatening presence.
Either would work. the villain is a surprise reveal sort of thing, so maybe an ironic name could work better.

Oh so Wattle Fire is going to have a human antagonist now?
Ah, creating villains can be so fun. 😛 Are you looking for a fitting Puritan name or an ironic one?

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #22 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 9 months ago
Not much at the moment. I’m currently just making an antagonist for Wattle Fire and trying to find a good old, suitably weird Puritan name

You watched Phantom? That’s cool 😀 What do you like best about it?
Hi, what’s up? 🙂

Sorry, I didn’t mean to ignore you, I was just never notified about your tag, which is weird, but happens a fair bit.
I’d definitely be interested, but two questions. a) What’s it about? b) when do you want it read by?
And, how long is it?

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #22 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 9 months ago
Hello! Sorry, I was out last night, but I’m back now! You saw Phantom? As in, the movie or the actual stage version? I enjoy both, but the stage version is superior.

@dekreel AHA YES I AM! 😀 I didn’t even notice! XD
Oh, yeah I actually haven’t seen that many musicals. *cringes* I’ve heard a lot about The Phantom of the Opera, but I haven’t watched it. 🙂
Yeah I guess this news was best for @seekjustice and @rochellaine, lol! 😀 (a.k.a. The Musical Experts 😛 )

Hello, m’friends! I did not expect to be able to be on here while out of town, but here I am. 🙂 I’m writing and working on blog stuff, if anyone would like to join me. 😉

The clip I saw of them was from several years ago, so they might have grown up a bit since then.
That’s fine. I have to go too, so I probably won’t be on again. I’ll talk later!

Yes, they look like a boy band, but they sing very differently from how you’d expect a boy band to sing. 🙂 I don’t think they’re teenagers, though. At least not anymore. 😉 And yes, I love their versions of Stars and I Dreamed a Dream.
No, I haven’t. I think it’s a problem with my computer, not with the website, so I’ll try a f…[Read more]

I’m not sure that I have heard of it, but yes, it does sound a little too cheesy for me 😛
Is Collabro sort of like a teenaged boy band? I remember hearing a boy band sing “Stars” and it really blew me away. I wasn’t expecting them to do it so fantastically.
Have you tried contacting Hope Ann or Daeus, or someone?

I just have to work in the subplots and manage to wrap up the whole trilogy. Which is the difficult part.
…yeah, not complicated at all…right? 😛
I’ve been humming Bye Bye Birdie a lot over the past few weeks. Not sure why. 😛 Have you ever heard of it? You probably wouldn’t like it. 😉 It’d be too cheesy for you. But the…[Read more]
