@seekjustice He should meet up with Quillon and learn how to say “gracious goodness.”

My last (full) sentence was

With a pop, he landed on a bright black and orange fuzzy rug and did a somersault before bouncing to his feet.

(“Pop” because he popped out of somewhere onto the fuzzy rug… 😛 it sounds so weird.)

Aw, too bad. 🙁 About the weather,…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I got 220, so I beat you by six words 😛

sure, my last sentence was this:

Good gracious

Courageous’ pov 😀 Unfortunately, I forgot I had to go out tonight, so I must leave my warm and cuddly spot (good gracious, this is Australia, it’s summer and its freezing) and go into town. Farewell. Will you be on tomorrow do you think?

@seekjustice I didn’t do overly well.  Got 214 words.  But it’s a start. 🙂

Want to share favorite sentences or last sentences or something?

@seekjustice Ten minutes it is!

I’ll start now.

@rochellaine

Ah, that’s right. I’d forgotten about you moving.

Ten minutes?

@seekjustice Thankfully, no abyss. 😛  Just Thanksgiving, and crazy moving to a new house sort of stuff.

Sounds great!  I’ve got an idea for a short story that I want to try out, so I’ll pull up a blank document while you name the time.

@rochellaine Hello! I was wondering if you’d disappeared into an abyss or something. Sure, I can word war with you. I’ve only written 77 words today.

@seekjustice Are you here?  Want to word war or chat or something?

@Rochellaine

I’ll have a look at it when I get home then 🙂

My favourite actors were the ones that played Valjean, Marius and Gavroche. They were really good. The bloke playing Valjean was really young, he was actually almost turned down in the auditions for being too young, but he was a fantastic singer and I think he did the part extremely…[Read more]

@seekjustice I found a website that has a recording of the entire opera (which I’m listening to right now 😉 ):

And the libretto here:

And a few scenes from the opera on…[Read more]

@valtmy

Interesting. 🙂 It’s funny all the weird places inspiration comes from 😛

@seekjustice

It’s a musical which sort of partially inspired QOD. I watched it back when I was staying in London. It is not a deep show by any means and the plot and character development is not there but I listen to some of the soundtrack when I do my writing for QOD. 😛

@valtmy

I have so many plot scraps running around in my head, and Les Mis just added about a hundred more. I may have asked before, but what’s 42nd Street about?

Yep.

@seekjustice

I get the feeling. Always get that after watching a good show. Got it for QOD after watching 42nd Street. 😛

Sooner or later? That’s a crucial phrase you inserted there. 😛

@valtmy

I really want to start on SFI’s third draft.

But I am strong. I will finish Wattle Fire…sooner or later.

@seekjustice

Hi good to know you enjoyed yourself at Les Mis. 🙂

So how inspired are you now for SFI/Wattle Fire? 😛

@Rochellaine

I actually looked it up last time you mentioned it, but I couldn’t find any recordings on YouTube. And I hadn’t heard of it before. Was it good?

I loved it! I only just got back from it actually. And yeah, it was brilliant. The actors were really good. The only thing was that it was occasionally odd listening to an Australian cast…[Read more]

@seekjustice I’m reading up on this page and see you saying something about seeing Les Miserables live???!!  That’s so cool!! 😀  Did you like it?

@seekjustice I know you don’t like operas, but have you heard of the opera Silent Night?  My family went to see it tonight, and it made me think of you because it’s about the Christmas Treaty of 1914.

@valtmy @bluejay

I’m here now, and will be for a little bit, as we just arrived home and I am wide awake. 😛  Anyone want to word war?
