    Oh no!  All I meant was that I was sorry it sounded like I was ignoring you, ’cause I didn’t mean to 😛 I think Erin’s perfect where she is. 😉

    Oh no, that’s not too dark at all, writing is therapeutic for me too. Ehud’s actually my happiest, least traumatized character yet. Fun fact; expressive writing can be used to heal sometimes even physical pains:)

    Thanks! Wow, really? I did’t know that.  That super cool!

    @rusted-knight

    That’s a really creative idea.  And Colma will love that; she’s a sucker for weapons.

    Ah, yes. Our writing evolves a lot. I’d have to go back and look at old stories to see how mine has changed, but I know it’s gotten way better, lol….

    Yes!  I was thinking about the story I started (Alas! Never finished 🙁 ) with Evlarin and stuff.  (I was thinking about it bc of my response to you on “Moon-men, Blue Pencils, and Backpacking Boys.”) And I thought about how it can only progress from writing the sloppy stuff, ’cause then I learn from those sloppy mistakes.  I learn that saying it that way sounds bad, or whatever it is.

    so I get the having to pour stuff out

    Thanks 😀

    I use “y’all” a lot, but actually, studying Latin, it’s a lot more accurate than saying “you” when referring to several people.

    ………….. I’ve been living a lie!! A LIE!! What is the world coming to??!!!

    And your post was awesome! “I love you,” that is so sad!!!!! I am just going to go scream into a pillow right now….

    Aw, thank you.  I’ll admit, I was very sad after writing it.  Her feelings became my feelings. And yes, I’m with you on the screaming into a pillow thing…

    And I LOVED your post!! Seeing things directly from Ahab’s POV is really cool. It’s like what I said above, his feelings became my feelings.  And this analogy is sooo cool:

    melting-ice eyes.

    Wow, what an image that creates.  And how he was saying how she reminded him of himself as a kid… *screams into a pillow with Wingiby Iggiby*

    This is fun, I love the fact that you can just create a whole new scene whenever you want. you can just let your imagination go.

    YES! Totally! It’s so fun 😛
