@valtmy

Slack-jawed confusion is not necessarily the reaction I am going for.

Congratulations, you have now ascended to the ranks of @seekjustice, who up to this point has been the only other person I recall who made me laugh aloud just from a forum message. 😀

@valtmy Well, it’s supposed to be a comedy, right?

😛

@ariel-ashira Hi!  As I said above, I’m also going to be off and on, so I might take a really long time to respond sometimes.  But hello again. 🙂

@valtmy That is the problem I’m having with my western. (which I’m not working on right now, I’m doing something for my parents’ books.) I already have beta readers, you included, and I haven’t been a…[Read more]

@rochellaine @valtmy Hi!  I am back on for a bit.  I will be on and off today.

@valtmy Hello, hello!  I’m going to be in and out for a bit.  What are you working on?

@rochellaine @seekjustice @ariel-ashira @valtmy @jenwriter17 @alia @dekreel @kaya-young
I’ve been thinking about creating a new thread about how to retrieve a doc if you can’t use the undo button. Or do y’all already know how to do that? What do you think?

I’m working on a blog post.

@valtmy *munches gluten free cinnamon roll*

Have all you guys read books by SeekJustice?

@valtmy  *accepts cinnamon roll and devours it* Thanks!

By the way everyone, I’m writing!

@valtmy Welcome back to the war zone! 😛  Actually, war hasn’t officially been declared yet because I have been slacking on writing the declaration of war.  So as soon as I get that written and @sam-kowal presents it to Story Embers the war will be on.  I was going to try and finish it yesterday, but I forgot that we were about to go out of st…[Read more]

@valtmy We are just pretending.  We are not actually mad at SE, although it is sad that so many have left.  And we are not out to hurt anyone.  Jenwriter and I have SE accounts too.  (We are the spies 😛 )

@valtmy  You shall die! No, just kidding. If you bring us cinnamon rolls we might forgive you. 😉

@rochellaine  Should you interrogate her?

@jenwriter17 Well, I was gone anyway, on my conference call. 🙂  But I’m back now.

Okay, I didn’t have any great desire to see them, so with such a recommendation as that, I guess I don’t need to worry about it.  😛

Sadly, yes.  KP is being abandoned.  Remember when it used to say “Members active in the last 24 hours: 46” or something like tha…[Read more]

@valtmy And now it’s the dead of night for me… 😛

Thanks!  I did enjoy Newsies very much!

Yes, that makes sense.  Actually the paramedics scene was very easy for me, but it’s the longer bridge sections that are harder.  I’m pretty much having the problem you just described: I have to have some things happen between the important scenes, wi…[Read more]

@valtmy My problem isn’t infodumps as much as it is “bridge” sections.  I don’t know if there’s an actual name for them, but they’re the parts where you go down in between the exciting passages and have to get the characters from one place to another.  There are things that have to happen in between, so I can’t just skip the bridge and go on to t…[Read more]

@valtmy Really?  If you figure that out, will you please let me know the secret?!  I’m working on an annoyingly boring passage myself. 😉

@ariel-ashira Goodbye! 🙁

@valtmy Oh, okay.  SeekJustice is in Australia, about sixteen hours ahead of me.  Usually I stay up really late and talk with her at about 11:00-2:00 a.m. while it’s only lunch time for her. 😛   What are you working on right now?

@alia Hello!  How’s it going? (I’m on and off right now too, since I’m watching my litt…[Read more]

@jenwriter17, @valtmy, @rochellaine

I’ll be off and on for a bit

@seekjustice…I finally finished tale of two cities. I understand everything that happened in the first half, but then I just got confused

@valtmy That’s okay, but…what?!  Where do you live?

@ariel-ashira I’m going to be off and on, since I’ve got to watch my little sisters while my mom is out of the house.  So my replies might be slow or quick depending on what’s going on.

How’s it going?  Working on your biblical story?

@seekjustice @jenwriter17 @ariel-ashira @skredder @valtmy @alia I’m back!  Is anyone else writing?
