Kedori forced a smile, eyes watering. I’m Kedori. Thank you–for helping him. He met the woman’s eyes. Can I come with you if they let you help him? . . . if it’s not too much trouble. I work in the back office in the third sector. His gaze lowered. I haven’t seen Kiet in such a long time. I want to be there for him in any way I can…[Read more]

How my guy characters drink their Respect Women Juice:

Kedori: in small sips so it doesn’t spill

Kiet: with a straw

Dari: drinks whole thing but intermittently because he has to keep stopping to chase his toddler sister

Tai: blows bubbles in his before draining the glass

Gerik:…[Read more]

@dakota

Kedori’s heart leapt. Would you please? he signed rapidly. I’d be so grateful. He bit his lip. I might have a hard time paying you–but I promise I will, as soon as I can! He met the young woman’s eyes. Thank you so much.

As time passed in silence, weariness overtook Kiet’s body. He slumped against the wall, trying to ignore the d…[Read more]

A lump formed in Kedori’s throat. No. He can’t. . .

Meeting the young woman’s eyes, he signed rapidly, tears trickling down his cheeks. If he gets infected, he could die. Isn’t there some way we could stop it? Couldn’t someone care for him in there? Would they let you?

A wet nose touched his arm. He looked down as…[Read more]

@dakota

Kedori tried a smile. She feels sorry for me. It’s better than being cruel, but there’s no need to feel bad for me. Not really. He shook his head.

Your signing is fine. He paused. And. . . yes, I’m alright. 

His mouth twisted. But. . . will he really heal in there? Will anyone take care of him? Is it clean there, or could he get infe…[Read more]

Not sure why those tags didn’t all work :/

Okay!!! This has taken me ALTOGETHER too long! I’m so sorry for holding people up for so long. At long last, here are my three characters’ parts!

Cold. Hard. Oh, that hurts. . .

Kiet’s eyes fluttered open as a breath of dank, musty air fille…[Read more]

!!!

I’m soooooooo sorry. . . aggggggh doing my next parts has been on my to-do list for a while now. That’s it. I’m scheduling it. I’m going to aim to have them done by tomorrow afternoon. *intense nod*

@arindown Ooooh nice!!

@writergirl101 *responds late once more* I’m actually not planning on doing it this July. XD It’s been pretty crazy lately, and I’m not sure exactly how working on my third draft is going to go.

@beth20 *salutes*

(^that list no longer contains Beth’s tag, so y’all can copy and paste that one now if you want. 😉 )

For Kiet:

1. How could you create more balance in your life?

Balance? Um. . . I…[Read more]

Kiet child:

1. Would you rather live where it only snows or the temperature never falls below 100 degrees?

Snows! Landslides, there are places it gets to 100 degrees?? [“Landslides” is a common…[Read more]

@urwen-starial my gosh XD

@writergirl101 @arindown

July is much the same as November, except that you don’t have to do a novel: you can do poetry, scripts, short stories, or whatever.

Tine commitment varies on your goal and speed. I’ve known some crazies [lookin at you, @deeprun and @emgc] to finish 50k in under fifteen days, while it took me the whole month to get 25k…[Read more]

Kiet boi again

1. Do you enjoy cold showers?

*laughs* I mean it’s about all you get around here, so. . .

2. Do you have a recurring dream?

*swallows * Yes. A few. *runs fingers over scars on his cheek and…[Read more]

@writergirl101

Oh yes! It’s helped me plow through a good chunk of several stories!

Actually, Camp NaNoWriMo happens in April and July too. So another one is starting in three days!

(Also, there’s a Young Writers Program for those under 18 that lets you set your own word count goal. Very helpful for me, a semi-slow writer. 😛 )

*Maya I love Felix* We really need to get him and Kedori together.

Kedori: *shy wave* You know so many languages. . .

Oooh funsies!

1. What is your favorite kind of soup?
