Wow, so many great thoughts, I’m not really sure I have much to add. (I have already read the entire book so it’s pretty hard to narrow it down to just the first few chapters.)
I really like those question @spradlin. To answer one of them, if you do take away the political aspect of the book there really isn’t much there. I doubt it would stand on…[Read more] -

@spradlin Orwell is telling the story for his audience. If he was writing for himself, he would vent his own opinions a lot more- think of Victor Hugo’s dissertations in Les Miz. I also believe that he’s slowly working in an allegory. @daeus You’re right that a person who hadn’t heard of communism before would not recognize it, but I think he’s…[Read more]

@spradlin Those are some great thoughts to chew on. 😉 I think that Orwell is telling the story for his readers, mostly. His main objective in writing this story seems to be to convince others of whatever points he’s trying to get across in his writing. It’s a little to early in the story to tell exactly what points he’s trying to prove. @Daeus…[Read more]

Legendaires (a combination of the word Legend and Legionnaires)
Now, what do you think. Honest opinion, everyone. Is it cool, or is it cheesy?
How about a few tags……[Read more]

Is there anyone still awake on KP who wishes to write??? I have been told from a very reliable source (thanks @spradlin) that west side of America is three hours behind the other side of America. *hmmm…I don’t think I’m making much sense, but hey, what’s new???*
So let me tag a few people and if you are interested in writing with me for a time…[Read more] -

Hahaha @spradlin I totally didn’t mind. 😀
There’s not much to build on this, actually— it’s a fact, not a technique, so it can’t really be discussed. 😛And what exactly does your ‘weak’ analogy mean? I’m not quite sure I get it…

My theory is that @spradlin is a genie, you know the poofs of smoke when summoned and the unexplainable number of thumbs, I mean just look at the genie from Aladdin, he was able to do some pretty weird stuff 😛

Greta replied to the topic Plot & Characters— Inseparable. in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 6 months ago
@spradlin I think we need to discuss how many thumbs you have. 😛

@kate-flournoy Yes, I agree with this so much. {Or, as @spradlin would say “gives many thumbs up.” 😉 } Great point about the smallest personality traits affecting the character’s decisions.
