Just tagging a bunch of people to see if they want to join in! The more people (and stories), the better!

*Goes back to playing with playdoh*

@evelyn @eden-anderson @rochellaine

Anyone else want to go first? Or should I?

@rochellaine @i-david

YAY!!!! This is what we need. 😆 I’m definitely going to be following this thread.

@rochellaine I mean whatever! Fictional, real, dreams… This is for all things funny and written.

@h-jones  Ah, what an amazing idea! Absolutely, I would love to! If we all call ourselves by Christ`s name, we ought to be able to unite in the exaltation of His inspired Word. Thanks for suggesting it!! Any special method?

@seekjustice

You mean it should sound like it came off my tea packet and not your tea packet. 😛

No, I don’t think I read @rochellaine‘s poem. Is it on KP or SE?

@valtmy

As long as it’s super sappy, overly complicated, flowery and sounds like it came off a tea packet, it will work perfectly 😛

Did you read @rochellaine ‘s poem from the other day? Something in a style like that (without the intentionally humorous aspect) would probably work.

I just wrote this, and now it disappeared!  I hate it when that happens!

Here goes another try!

@selah-chelyah Those last two books are really cool – highly recommended!
Actually, I meant Winfield Scott Hancock, a Union Civil War general.  He was a neat guy.  But I’m glad you like my favorites!
I am working on most of my stories right now, bu…[Read more]

@ashira

It’s cheesy because the whole thing between Stanley and the girl (her name was Emma by the way) was so cliche and generic. Give up the girl or die…BLAH! BLAH! BLAH! BLAH! And if you’ve been following this discussion you can see that there was a lot of stuff I didn’t know and/or even think about.

So there. 😀

@rochellaine

Aww, your…[Read more]

@the-fledgling-artist: “I feel that I’m being a little confusing…” not at all! I think you’ve made your points quite clear so good job! “But a sinful attitude will almost always lead to sinful action.” I think ya, that, I agree (as long as almost alwase are the key words). I do think there are times where people can do an action we would cons…[Read more]

@rochellaine Because my 1860’s western has to do with stuff in California, that’s why. 😛 And because you have so many good answers.

@rochellaine nice variety of genres! Do you have a favorite?

I mainly write fantasy, though I often put dystopian or sci-fi elements in there. And I recently got a *crazy* idea to write a contemporary short story.

@libby Hi!  Your quotes are great!

@rochellaine Do you know much about how California felt in the Civil war?  If you do, I’d love to hear it!

@eden-anderson Oh, don’t!  Why do you think its cheesy?

@rochellaine  Wow, thank you for your honest opinion! Hmmm….. is there a way that could be resolved within the same general story-line, or would you rather not think about it? I do not want to write something that is not realistic, and I really appreciate you sharing with me! Maybe if Mary is older, and thus leaves the orphanage on her own an…[Read more]

@rochellaine  I have two main WIP`s at the moment, and am working mostly on the second one. The general story outlines are in my profile, if you want to read that. :_ I started the first one several years ago and have a LOT of reworking to do! The second one is coming along well, though. I will hopefully post it on Google Docs before long, and…[Read more]

@rochellaine

That’s fine 🙂

@eden-anderson

Sorry if I worded that badly. I don’t mean defend them as in “Wave away all the bad things they do”, and yes, I’m referring specifically to World War One, because that’s my area of expertise and that is what Rochellaine and I were discussing. WW1 was never as clearcut as WW2, so its harder to point at…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I’m scrapping my plot because it was cheesy. 😀

Okay, well yeah, that makes more sense about what @seekjustice said. When I read what she said, my mind instantly went to the Holocaust, and Auschwitz and all the horrible things that Hitler and the Nazi’s did. It’s true that there were Germans who didn’t agree with Hitler and those who…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Wow, you really know your Civil War history! Thanks for sharing; I definitely learned some stuff. (BTW, I’m really bad at condensing stuff too. 😀)

You can address the plot if you want, but at this point I don’t ever plan to take it back up again. It has died and may it rest in peace, as far as I’m concerned. 😀

@seekjustice

It is…[Read more]

@rochellaine

You’re just more specific, I guess. And I’m the sort of person who always likes seeing both sides of the story, especially in wars. Which is probably why I defend the Germans a lot. Also because sometimes I don’t feel the Australians should be defended 😛 (they surely have to be the most rascally soldiers anyway.
