@valtmy Oh, too bad.  I suppose you’re right, and I could understand it better because I have more practice.  I got to see it done live once, and that was really cool too.

@seekjustice I’m afraid I won’t be on anymore tonight.  I was planning on having a word war with you and chatting some more, but I just got distracted talking with my sister fo…[Read more]

@Rochellaine It is. Anyhow, I wish to speak of happier things 😀

But everything is Kendall’s fault 😛

@jenwriter17

Have fun on your trip 🙂

@valtmy

I enjoy using Scrivener a lot. I still use Word for writing first drafts, but I found Scrivener really useful when I did the last round of edits on SFI. I haven’t fully got the hang of it yet, but…[Read more]

@valtmy You did??!  What did you think?  Did you like it?  Who’s your favorite character?  What’s your favorite song?  Which version did you watch?

😉 😛 😛

@valtmy Hello!!

@seekjustice Sounds horrible. 🙁 There is one historically inaccurate movie I really like, but that’s probably because I don’t know the true story of the person very well.

I burst out laughing when reading our comments on my original document.  We were talking about what Justice’s reaction to finding out Chessy was tortured…[Read more]

@rochellaine I can’t be on right now; too busy at the moment…

@seekjustice @valtmy @ariel-ashira @alia @catwing @kaya-young @dekreel

Just letting you all know that I’ll be leaving for a trip Sunday, so I probably won’t be on here really at all until Friday. You can still tag me for things if you’d like, and I’ll try to respond as soon as I can. 🙂

@Rochellaine

Good plan. I would be better off never knowing of its existence.

Its mostly a romance between Gladys and a half-Chinese half-Dutch (and yet so thoroughly white and American) colonel, Gladys with bobbed blonde hair (rather than long and black) and about two Asian actors. Its 1958, I believe, and no wonder she hated it.

I love your…[Read more]

@catwing Oh, I wish I hadn’t missed you! 🙁

@seekjustice @jenwriter17 @dekreel @valtmy Anyone here?  I’m writing now.

@rochellaine @seekjustice @ariel-ashira @dekreel @valtmy I am here writing at last.

@seekjustice Well, as expected, I got only 159 words in.  However, it does count as something. 🙂  Thanks for warring with me!  I’ll look forward to doing some more in the future, and getting back up to speed where I can almost keep up with you. 😛

@valtmy Ok.  Let me know when you do get a chance.  I’d love to hear your opinion on it. ;)…[Read more]

@seekjustice 😀 😀 I will fail miserably, but I’d love to try anyhow.  I usually find word wars help me through rough places, since I don’t think about how hard it is to write, but simply write. 😉

Unfortunately, I’m tired, so can we do a short, five minute war?

(And hooray for the Comic History of Britain! 😉 )

@valtmy Have you had a chance t…[Read more]

@valtmy

Yes. I usually do retellings of things I like quite a lot. And usually, it’s not so much that I think I have a better way of doing it, but just that I have a different way, which I’d like to explore.

No, I don’t think you should be. 😀 I also fail to see how Lancelot and Guinevere are romantic and not just plain selfish/stupid.

@valtmy

Well, I’d be happy to let you read it before then.

Oh yes. that’s because I’m a brilliant writer and often read things and think “I could do so much better than this”. 😛

But yeah, I do a lot of retellings. I think I enjoy the challenge of taking something that people are familiar with and changing it. It’s kind of fun. 😛

Well, I…[Read more]

@valtmy

I find the Arthurian legends very interesting, and I especially enjoy playing with the older versions, which a lot of people have forgotten now. I haven’t seen Merlin but it does sound interesting.

Certainly! The competition deadline isn’t until March, I think, next year, but I tend to be a procrastinator, so I thought I’d get in early…[Read more]

@valtmy

Not the Lady of the Lake but the nymph/hand/creature that gives Arthur the sword.

Not all that many. 😛 this is only a short story that I’m planning on entering into a competition. Those are the sorts of things I work on in between drafting or editing big novels.

@valtmy

I know what you mean. I’ve hardly had any time for writing lately (partly my own fault).

A writing retreat sounds like a really cool idea. I’d love to do that myself one day. It’d probably help me focus on editing a little better 😀

I’ve actually been going pretty well with that. I got lunch made for my brothers and sister and a few…[Read more]

@valtmy

Sure! How’s things?

@valtmy Oh, Singapore! We have kapeefers all over the world! (it’s an awesome thought) 😀

@valtmy @seekjustice Sorry, I had to let my Mom use the computer.  You still here?

@jenwriter17 I have no idea..I dont think I will be on then.

whoops, messed up your tag @valtmy

@jenwriter17 @valtmy

I’ll probably be on later, but I want to get some writing done today, so I might not be on as much.
