Ha, I love it. That guy is dead serious about the whole thing. xD
He didn’t even need to be XD He obviously dropped his guard once or twice, giving me the chance to attack but my brain short-circuted and I did nothing. XD
It wasn’t easy but he was really fair about it and insisted I got points for a head-hit that wasn’t clearly seen…[Read more]

It happened twice. And then additionally one time someone crashed into me and hit my neck so hard my mask completely tilted. I was very nearly knocked off my feet that time
Sweet. 🙂
Also fun fact that was all the same person because he doesn’t hold back ever. That may also explain why I am shockingly sore even though I only f…

Ah come on, it isn’t that bad, you can do it.
Thanks for the encouragement but I’m going to keep being dramatic about it XD
Now that’s what I’m talkin about. I love it.

It’s me against the horrors of physics and the horrors of physics are winning.

My dad filmed it so I now have visual evidence of myself getting stabbed in the throat so hard I literally spin 360 degrees like an old-fashioned cartoon which is everything I’ve ever wanted out of lif…

Hey, you lost spectacularly, that’s the important part.

I get a high-school diploma end of next schoolyear! If I… yaknow… pass.
You’ll do fine. 🙂
It was awesome! I had a great time! I had three matches and spectacularly lost all three because a. I’ve never done this before and b. everyone I was matched against was wayyy more experienced. But I actually managed to score four point…

Ah. I was/am also homeschooled, I’m just taking some advanced classes in a career placement high school.
That’s cool! I’m taking exams at the end of every year so I get a high-school diploma end of next schoolyear! If I… yaknow… pass. XD
Sounds like great fun! Even the rear getting kicked part.

Ah. I was/am also homeschooled, I’m just taking some advanced classes in a career placement high school.
But it did slacken up a little again. HEMA resumed, which is awesome. Also I have my first tournament tonight, which is both terrifying and very exciting. It’s a rea…

Hey Noah!
How is life? School keeping you busy as well? Weather cleared up any? 🙂
How is writing? Did you get that one character figured out?

Rose replied to the topic This is totally about poetry in the forum Poets 4 years, 4 months ago
Seriously, though. I was having trouble with the first quarter of my WIP, and something you said got me thinking, and I might have a change coming (and a huge rewrite, but if it’s better, who cares?)
OOoh, that’s cool! Big rewrites are scary but worth it!
Poor Farran…that sounds marvelous! How long has he liked Liorah?

Oh dear, no! Qatar wouldn’t do that. It does get me thinking though…
I was just thinking because perhaps possibly some of… a friend’s characters might have done that XD
That’s what I would have guessed! I want to read that one soon, but I have to work through some other books, and I thought I’d better give Dickens a break. Ha…

Ha! It oughta be good! Do you have any triangles in your writings?

Oh, good. I thought it was murder. Oh, wait, wrong reaction. *clears throat* *shocked gasp* Qatar, how could you??
So he’s a fun person to write, then!
Extremely!! Writing him is an excercise in writing subtext since he seldom actually comes out with anything villianous obviously.

Hmmm…very interesting, the gigantic quotes at the top of the page. I can’t say I don’t like it, though. Is that what happens when you play around with quoting someone, lol.

The more I think about it, the more I absolutely agree with you (and I do remember Liorah tugging on her tassels in the character castle several months ago I believe)
You remember correctly! She does that a lot, and so does her brother.
I was already kinda feeling like my Jewish character didn’t feel that Jewish, so something like t…

Actually, making your character wear tzit-tzit has quite a few literary perks.
