“It’s almost like magic… The way grandfather’s photo flashes across my mind with every note I play.”

Sorta. 😛

@rochellaine  Care to do one? 😀

@seekjustice You around?

@seekjustice 😀

Yes, but there are other jobs where it is used, such as engineering or accounting.  However, I doubt I’ll use more than basic arithmetic, and my chemistry knowledge is confined to baking. 😉

I see.  Well, I certainly can’t help you there, since I have no idea what the “main plot points” even are supposed to be. 😛

I need to g…[Read more]

@seekjustice “Tears, hiccuping, general chaos…” perfect description.  I find myself agreeing, at this point. 😛

So, I guess that means I do okay?  Well, with my comic short stories and poems, at least. 😉  I do hope to write a good sad scene sometime, though.  But, like you said, you’d probably faint from shock if I ever did such a thing… :P…[Read more]

@seekjustice Haha, I don’t think so. 😛

Hi!!  Finally a direct conversation between us!  I wonder how long it has been?  Anyway, I won’t be on for much longer, but I’m not quite done yet so, I am still here at present.

Ah, sorry. 😉  I’ll ask you the question I ask everyone: Do you prefer decimals or fractions?  I adore fractions and abhor deci…[Read more]

There’s no point in writing unless we can make people sob uncontrollably

I guess there’s no point in any of my writing, in that case. 😛  Will you be disappointed when I tell you I don’t sob uncontrollably when reading your stuff?  …I just weep uncontrollably… 😉

Oh, I miss you too!!!  Are you on now?  I can be on for a lit…[Read more]

I suppose I need to tag someone now…

@seekjustice  Make a one-sentence story out of this picture:

Ohh, thanks for bringing this topic back! I loved it!

Lessee. I’ll do one for that girl with her arms spread out…

“And though she didn’t know it, though He was invisible, He was holding her by the hands like a baby learning to walk.”

How’s that? 😛

@seekjustice The spy museum had lots of really cool spy gadgets that felt like they were right out of James Bond. 😀  There was a glove pistol, and umbrella gun, a bugged shoe (radio in the heel) and stuff like that.  Also a lot of stories of spies.  There was one guy who created a whole fake spy network, fooling the enemy into thinking it was re…[Read more]

@seekjustice  I guess I’ll try the Google Doc then. 🙂

@seekjustice  Great, thanks.

By the way, sorry I haven’t been reading your book lately. I’ve just been unsure about which document I need to read from. (The one in the email or the Google doc.) Hopefully I’ll start up again soon…

Which do you think I should use, the Google doc or the email doc?

@seekjustice  I’m doing fine.

May I ask what time is it in your region of Australia right now? Just so I know when you’re awake and asleep. If you don’t want to answer though, that’s fine.

You know you’re a writer when you pace back and forth in your room repeating your character’s name in different accents, trying to find a good accent for your world.

@seekjustice  @catwing  @valtmy  @rochellaine  @alia  @jenwriter17

Heyy, I will be world-building if not writing a bit. How are y’all doing?

@catwing  HAHA, I love it!! Well done! 😀 😀 😀

@valtmy How’s it going?

Haha. 😛

@seekjustice You still around?  We went to another place today that you should put on your “to visit” list. 😉  the International Spy museum!  It was amazing.  Really cool. 😀  Do you like stories of spies?  You like wars, so it seems like you would…

@seekjustice I could never forget that one!  You know, it’s actually the first ever writing by you that I read.  Way back when you first posted it, and I didn’t know who you were, you’d never heard of me, and I promptly forgot the author of the story and didn’t find out until recently that it was actually you. 😉

What happens to the story now t…[Read more]

@seekjustice That’s so amazing about the competition!!!  Which story was it?

I’m here now, for a little while.  What about you?

@alia Thanks!  Okay, I think I’ll just wait and read it on your blog.  I’m getting ready for a trip and probably won’t have much time to read it right now anyway. 🙁

@alia I’m sorry!  That’s really hard.  I’ll pray for you and her.

@seekjustice Oh, that’s not good.  California had a very bad draught a couple of years ago, and they were having the same problem. (A few other states too, but CA was the worst.)  And the government was really stupid about it and decided to give the relief water to the end…[Read more]
