@seekjustice Oh, wowly-wow!! 😛 I am impressed. What did you think of Fiddler on the Roof? My family sees the theme in that to be “when you rebel against traditions simply because you feel like it, rather than for a good reason, society crumbles.” or something like that. I’m bad at being concise, so that might not be a fully correct sta…[Read more]

@seekjustice Very true. Because we are taught that life was horrible for women back in those days, it obviously must have been. But it was really just women were treated differently in different parts of the countries or world, like they are now. I think people were happier back then as a general rule, too, more than they are now, because ba…[Read more]

@seekjustice I just looked it up, and then remembered that I have had pizza with eggs on it before, but for dinner at a nice restaurant. Apparently you can eat that for breakfast too. Another very popular switch-up here is people very often have what we call “breakfast for dinner,” meaning you eat waffles or pancakes for dinner instead of b…[Read more]

@seekjustice I would be surprised if we didn’t have breakfast pizza. I don’t recall hearing of it before, though. The thing is, America is a blending of such diverse cultures that we have many different types and versions of foods for all the different meals and snacks. Sure, people will give you main foods that are popular among Ame…[Read more]

@seekjustice Ah…no, I meant that I found the conversation hilarious. But then, I find almost every conversation we have here hilarious, so that’s nothing new. 😉
@alia I wouldn’t say they’re a full romance series. The first two books have absolutely no romance in them at all, since the series starts when she’s 14 and the series ends s…[Read more]

@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]

@seekjustice @alia Oh, this is hilarious. 😛
By the way, my go-to for flirting examples is always the Patty Fairfield series by Carolyn Wells. Wells writes flirtation so well!! Should I post an example for you? (by the way, I’ve never written flirting, so my plans for writing it are all theoretical. 😉 )
I just got distracted reading all our o…[Read more]

@jenwriter17, Thank you for tagging others. I think I opened it up so that people can comment on the actual doc. Even if you can’t read the whole thing I’ll be happy with anything I can get

@alia I’d love to read this part of your book (are you wanting us to leave comments?), but sadly due to busy life and other beta jobs, I won’t be able to read the whole thing. 🙁

@seekjustice, right? most of my friends are guys, and according to my two gal friends most of the time I talk to a guy is considered flirting by society, but for the life of me I can’t see where the friendly conversation ends and the flirtation begins.

Alia replied to the topic Writers' Corner #18 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 2 months ago
@seekjustice, good job Zac!
honestly, sometimes being a writer is hard because in order for us to write something like flirting well, we actually have to go and do it ourselves, which just ends up being awkward

Alia replied to the topic Writers' Corner #18 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 2 months ago
@seekjustice, well Zac still flirted better than I can. Which isn’t saying much because A. I don’t flirt, and B. I’m sure I would be terrible at it. But hey! At least Zac is better than someone

Alia replied to the topic Writers' Corner #18 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 2 months ago
@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.

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #18 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 2 months ago
@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]

@rochellaine, honestly, if a guy did that to me I’d find it pretty darn romantic, but like I said, there’s just something about those two. I don’t even know what it is, but for some reason I do not ship them. No clue why.

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #18 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 2 months ago
@alia Well, window scenes don’t mean as much to you as they do to me. 😉 I tell my sister, “If some guy ever asks you how to make me like him, tell him to talk to me through a window.” 😛 I don’t know, there’s just something really romantic about window scenes, to me. Mostly from the Patty Fairfield series.
@seekjustice I don’t know the ba…[Read more]

@seekjustice, aren’t we all? Confused by our own writings I mean.
Hey, maybe he was flirting with her in the same way she flirted with him was so that she wouldn’t like him like that. Yep, thats my theory and I’m sticking with it
-
Alia replied to the topic Writers' Corner #18 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 2 months ago
@rochellaine, well I guess @seekjustice failed with getting me to ship them through the window scene, because I like them as friends and really hope Chessy gets over liking him and he gets over liking her because I really like them as friends, but not as a couple. I don’t know, its just something about them together doesn’t appeal to me
