@emberlynn Nice! If you ever want any series recommendations, just ask XD Your Name is a fantasy romance about a guy and a girl who switch bodies. I won’t say too much more, otherwise it’ll be spoiled.

@emberlynn Shinkai is actually a fan of Ghibli, haha. His movie “Children Who Chase Lost Voices” is by far the most similar one to theirs. But more often he makes fantasy romance movies, like “Your Name” and more recently, “Weathering With You”. If you haven’t watched Your Name yet I highly recommend it! It’s renowned for being a masterpiece of an…[Read more]

@kathleenramm I like to listen to music when doing anything. Helps me focus a lot.

Usually when I write I’ll put on whatever it is I’m into at the moment. Ranges a lot…

But more often than not I’ll open up my “Writing stuffs” playlist on Youtube, which consists of a lot of mixes, like chill, or trap, or chillstep, or swing…

Hey there!

Studies are going well. 🙂

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

@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…)

@emberlynn It wasn’t even that it was slow (I usually don’t mind slow things) it’s just with WWII and watching children suffering for a couple of hours…I couldn’t really stomach it. But, yeah, I could definitely talk about Studio Ghbili for hours. Have you watched any of Makoto Shinkai’s works?

@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!

@emberlynn Hello!

I’ve been playing piano maybe 11, 12 years? Most of my life haha

Ooh, I love those! My top favorites are Spirited Away and Howl’s Moving Castle. I’ve watched almost all of theirs, I think, except for Grave of the Fireflies. I tried watching that twice but couldn’t get past 20 minutes.

@gracie-j The only one I can really think of right now is: What is good grammar? How do you use it?

So maybe compile a list of common grammar mistakes or something. Good grammar can really boost writing quality.

@emberlynn Hello! Nice to meet you!

I’m on SE as well, hehet.

Ooh, I like puzzles and piano and languages as well. And I also love Studio Ghibli! What are your favorite films of theirs?

@kathleenramm I guess planning out chapters gives me a to-do list and a word count goal. I find that it’s easier to do things with a checklist, and it makes me more motivated every time I finish a scene.

@kathleenramm I’ve got such a rigid writing schedule for myself that I don’t actually have the time or brain cells to sit down and map out every single specific thing. So I don’t really call myself a plotter.

I have a very specific ritual when starting a new work: I open the notebook, leave the first sheet blank, and then on the second page I…[Read more]

@alia @seekjustice @rochellaine @valtmy @dekreel

I’ll be around here on and off today…

I’m going to sign off earlier than planned, but I might be back on later tonight, when some of our wonderful Australian friends can join as well

@leon-fleming,

I write poetry every now and then

@leon-fleming

I often feel as though every character in a book is the same. They all think the same and act the same. This is most likely because it’s one person writing them all. So I really like it when I can tell that the author took time to give each and every character individual personalities and quirks. It takes a lot of research and…[Read more]

@seekjustice

It was interesting. I got through 2.5 songs, partly I think its because the quality of the soundtrack on YouTube wasn’t that great. But the song where Jane and Bingley meet was a little bit cringe worthy. I definitely plan on giving it more of a chance at some point in the future.

Okay…do the things that the others said to do, but…[Read more]

@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]
