Ya, same with me. In the beginning I thought he was okay, but wasn’t sure how he could go from being pretty nice (sometimes) to what he is in the Hunger Games, so I was a little wary of him even though I sorta wanted to like him. But it’s true that I really didn’t like him even more at the end. I listened to the songs and they are cool!…

I’ll try to remember to look those up tomorrow. He definitely did not! I was so mad at him at the end of the book. I don’t care if he went through a lot in life and simply needed some counselling, what he did just made me mad, even though I knew where he was going to end up since I’d read the Hunger Games before.

Yes!! In the b…[Read more]

@olivia

Aww, good! I’ve read quite a few books where people tell the stories of previous history through songs and it’s really cool, so that’s a good idea. Glad you have ideas!

I haven’t seen it that often, but I can see how it would work pretty well. And it gives me the added excuse that the songs were passed on through dozens of people in a gam…[Read more]

@olivia

Thanks for the advice, Olivia! That does help and gives me several things to think about!

First things first, I agree that songs included in stories are really cool, and when I was reading The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, I’d make up a little tune in my head for each song. So yes, I think it’s a cool idea.

Same! I sat reading the lyr…[Read more]

Pretty much, unless you are Tolkein, then half of your story is song anyway XD.

Yeah, every few years California decides to spontaneously combust. Never had to evac myself, but I was right below the line that did, and I have seen the fires crawl across the mountains right next to us.

I have a really hard time…[Read more]

@olivia

haha, I’m glad you enjoy it! I was looking through the pictures on my computer to try and find one I liked and I saw this one and knew it was perfect XD

@olivia

Isn’t that what stories are, just with a lot more context? XD

It may sound weird, but I kinda get it. Sun for so long gets boring. I had a teacher in highschool who was originally from New York, and she couldn’t understand how excited and energized her students got when there was rain, lol.

That’s good! Honestly, I am much…[Read more]

Hi Olivia,

Here a chart image I captured explaining the 4 code pairs of the Myers-Briggs.

You mentioned:

4 Myers-Briggs Preference Pairs

@olivia

Hi Olivia!

I copies a picture of what the letter codes mean if that helps.

According to Myers-Briggs, I’m an INTJ-INTP with the pretensions of being an INFP.

I share a commonality with the Apostle Paul in that verse:
For some say, “His letters are weighty and…[Read more]

Writing music is still very much a form of writing. The stories that songs tell are much more compact than books, but that does not make them less valid by any means.

@olivia

Yeah, a bunch of posts got deleted and some peoples messages stopped showing up for a day.

As for games, I am in a similar boat. I think the last triple-A game I played new was Skyrim, since then I mostly stick to old games I know I like or smaller releases on steam every once and a while. Lack of time has a way of refining our palates…[Read more]

Sorry for the delay! Life has tossed me many curveballs in the last two weeks, but I believe I’m over the hump.

@olivia

I’d love to read it! Just send me the google doc link anytime.

@obrian-of-the-surface-world

If you could email me at katherinelovesgod@gmail.com, that would be great!

@olivia

Hurrah!

You write songs?! Cool!

@arindown

YES! I feel the same way! And I think it annoys people some times because I just crash and I can’t talk about what I feel and i just well idk.😂😂 I run 100% on emotions and if they are haywire so am I😂. I ‘love’ ppl at a distance like there’s this little voice ‘don’t get too close. they…[Read more]

@olivia

That sounds really good! I’d love to give it a look. Let me know how best to do that. I could always give you my ‘junk email’ account so you can share it with me without too big a privacy concern.

@olivia

Thank you 🙂

@olivia Yay! How’s life going for you? I saw that you are taking writing really seriously (every day) now. Good job! I’ve been trying to take it seriously, but it’s hard (long) work. I’m supposed to be finishing my first draft in August.

@melancholicwriter Don’t worry, I totally understand about being “proud” of being INFP. I am too. And yes,…[Read more]

@olivia

That sounds great! I’d love to read it, and giving you thoughts on characters is exactly up my alley. Character development’s probably my favorite part of writing. Go ahead and hit me with some details.

@olivia

I’ve read the Rooftoppers and The Wolf Wilder. I loved both! I’m going to see if I can find her other books too! How did you like Cartwheeling in Thunderstorms?

The Wolf Wilder was really good! I loved it and I’m actually rereading it now.
