Wow, that’s quite amazing! I very briefly considered becoming a forensic pathologist, but to be honest the 12+ years of study put me off, so I’ve decided to become an occupational therapist instead, which is definitely a career swing.

I got interested in it through dogs. I’m a dog trainer and I read a book on training cadaver dogs and using…[Read more]

@kathleenramm I was actually just researching this topic for the KP article I’m writing and was just about to make a topic doing an unofficial survey on this very topic!

Personally, I love listening to music while writing. I’ve just been editing articles and I’m listening through the Prisoner of Azkaban soundtrack as we speak. John Williams, you…[Read more]

Hey there!

Studies are going well. 🙂

How have you been?  Your KP article was nice.  Did you have fun with that?

@valtmy @rochellaine

Sorry I missed you guys yesterday! How are your studies going, Rochellaine?

Are you still working on Queen of Drama, Valtmy?

@libby

The French Revolution and World War One are really interesting periods to read about. As for me, I’m fascinated by Roman Britain, WW1, and the Golden Age of Piracy/Exploration (which reminds me @gracie-j your books sound awesome! My current WIP is based on the lives of William Dampier and Jeanne Baret, have you heard of them?)

And my…[Read more]

@jbb

Nice idea! I also know a lot about forensic science, though specifically I know about forensic pathology and cadaver dogs and the role they play in (usually) murder cases. How did you get interested in it?

However, my true areas of knowledge are dogs and animal training/behaviour (I have nationally recognised Australian qualifications in…[Read more]

@jjb This is an awesome idea! 😀

I guess I could say I’m knowledgeable about horses/the equestrian world. And also the homeschooling culture??? (not sure if that’s an actual research resource or not…)

@valtmy

Things are fine.  A little rushed trying to prepare for the bar exam, but other than that, everything’s good. 😉

How about you?

@seekjustice

You still here?

@valtmy

Hey!

@alia @jenwriter17 @valtmy @rochellaine @Kapeefers!

anyone around? I’m working on some editing for a KP article!

@kathleenramm

Oh, okay then 😀 That definitely makes me feel better. I used to think I was very obsessive but maybe I’m just normal 😛 😛

@kathleenramm

Definitely an outliner! Though I’m not quite as pedantic about it as others are and my outlines are usually only about 2,000 to 3,000 words long (uh…I think i just exposed myself as an outlining fanatic) and I do go off outline quite regularly. I find when I pants, as I’ve done occasionally, I lose motivation quickly and I don’t…[Read more]

@libby

Hello, Libby! My interesting name is SeekJustice, but my actual name is Chelsea. I’m a KP intern and loving it so far.

It’s lovely that you can play the piano! I’ve attempted so many times to learn an instrument but I just can’t do it. I really enjoy listening to piano music though.

I also really love historical fiction! Do you have a…[Read more]

@alia @seekjustice @rochellaine @valtmy @dekreel

I’ll be around here on and off today…

@alia

I think I’ve heard of the same one SeekJustice has.  I remember looking up the cast recording after hearing Laura Osnes had been in it. 🙂  But no, I haven’t heard of a new one from this year.  Is it good?

@seekjustice

Speaking of birthdays…wasn’t yours earlier this month?  I’m a little late, but I think I can still wish you a happy bir…[Read more]

@alia

Hmm, that’s really interesting, I hadn’t heard of that. Are you going to see it?

@seekjustice

AWW happy birthday to SFI! *hugs* Maybe you could try taking personality quizzes for your characters and post the results. I did that and it was super fun. 😀 And maybe you could write something about what each character means to you. 🙂 AHH this…[Read more]

By the way, all my SFI fans, tomorrow is SFI’s third birthday and I’ve sort of made it a tradition to do an interesting post with some added trivia or something every year. Do you guys have any suggestions for something interesting to post?

@alia @jenwriter17 @rochellaine

@alia I’d heard of a Pride and Prejudice musical, but maybe not the same one, because this was an older one. Is it good though?

@jenwriter17 Oooh, that’s exciting news! Hope it goes well 🙂

I haven’t done much writing lately because I’ve been focusing on my KP articles. Hopefully I’ll have some time for it soon though.

Sadly, I have to leave now. 🙁 It was nice talking with you for a little bit. Hopefully I can be on here a little longer one of these days. Bye!
