I love doing that to my characters. I’m just about to dump all of my characters into despair as well.

@valtmy @alia

What are you guys working on?

@alia @valtmy @rochellaine

Anyone around?

@valtmy, you still around?

@alia @valtmy sorry, but I’m gonna have to leave now…

@valtmy ah I see 😉 do you have a favorite sport?

@alia Hi!

@jenwriter17, @valtmy, I’m here for a bit

@valtmy Cool 🙂

Are you watching the World Cup at all?

@seekjustice, @valtmy, I doubt either of you are around, but if you are, care to join me?

@valtmy @rochellaine

Thanks for filling out the questions!

I added Chessy being adopted into the first book because I was tired of the whole “oh, wait, you’re adopted” sort of thing and I could think of no good reason why Jean wouldn’t tell her.

And yes, I wrote this as Christian fiction for a predominantly Christian audience.

What Rochellaine…[Read more]

@valtmy Is it okay if I answer a few of your comments?  I’ve read the second draft of her book, and a few things have changed…

For one, Chessy is noted to be adopted from the first, so it is no longer a surprise in the second book.  That helps for continuity. 😀

Oh yes, about the trial! I agree with you.  Why didn’t Jean and Quillon just te…[Read more]

@rochellaine

You find our flirting attempts hilarious???

Oh, I remember that 😀 It was the reason I added the second window scene 😛

@valtmy

True…still, I think it works. Maybe.

@alia

Yep, me too. And those memories tend to torment me forever. 🙂

@seekjustice, @valtmy, @rochellaine, it is 11 here so I’m gonna sign out now. Talk to y’all later.

@valtmy, yeah, my characters are never going to flirt. Probably the main reason is that I am going to try and not write in romance *glares at two characters in book 2 of a series I have just started*.

@seekjustice, I’m pretty sure the same thing happens to me, however I can’t write about it because I’m not informed until later where the…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Don’t blame Zac. It’s just that I’m really bad at flirting.

And yes, it would have been really interesting (except my sister. of course, lives in the same house as me, so I wouldn’t dare). Also, one of the cons I had written down for the point of killing Zac was: “He wouldn’t get to be with Neva”. ?????? Why would Zac want to be w…[Read more]

@rochellaine, yeah, I guess that is part of it. Probably the main reason I don’t ship them because it wasn’t til near the end of book two that I got the impression that Justice made the faith his own and not simply thinking believing in God was all that mattered.

Ooh, and I agree with what you said to @valtmy about the whole leader thing.

@alia During the first book I got pretty annoyed with Chessy for falling for an unbeliever.  That situation was resolved in the second book, and because I began to feel more sorry for Justice, (and because of the window scenes,) I didn’t mind them getting together.  I really thought she was going to go for Zac more, though.  I would have… 😛 We…[Read more]

@valtmy

Justice is only one revolutionary leader out of a large number, even if that wasn’t necessarily made clear in the first draft. Also, the revolutionary group existed before Justice came along. He just took charge because he’s the bossy sort. And can you imagine Jonas leading a revolution?

That’s true. But I thought that would be too ob…[Read more]

@valtmy

Fair enough. And yes, Enjolras is very much a noble character with a noble revolution, whereas Justice most definitely is not.

And yes, it would have been very interesting. I’m sure @rochellaine wishes I’d done it. 😀

haha… 😀 Can you imagine Justice saving rich people from the guillotine? 😛 Its not him.

@alia Okey dokey…[Read more]
