Rep me your email. I'll send you the first two chapters (One for Maira, one for Kieran) of TL when I finish them. Then you can send me something of yours too because I'd love to read it too :D

I want to do YAWN, but I have class tonight. :< I normally don't get back until 8:30-9pm. I think I am going to start my Thicker Than Blood story tonight though. Even though I said I was going to do that a few weeks ago. >.>

Well, within reason. Forcing myself to draft Song of Silence's basic plot out before I actually start writing it. Not even done with the "how I want the book to start" bit yet. Worldbuilding is like playing with Legos.

Good luck with your essay, Lisa!

I used to be a SF/Fantasy writer before I realized worldbuilding just wasn't my thing. Romance was more of my calling lol.

Also, I was reading more of LS and I keep cringing now. I spoke too soon about my writing being good enough last year LOL

I repped you my email address! :) And that's a great idea.

Lisa, good luck on your essay!

Madican, worldbuilding is like playing with those micro Legos!

Thanks, Karla. I'm on the last section of the main body now, and then I've just got to do the conclusion.

ETA: Thanks, Missus!

What's another word for 'illustrate', as in to illustrate a point? I used Google yesterday, but I didn't like most of the words in terms of the context. :3

Hey, Ely! Thanks! :)

I was looking through some old pictures that I had collected over the years on my computer and I saw that picture and an idea immediately popped into my mind. What if the Queen of Hearts had an illegit daughter?

It is tempting to start my list of agents (Bullet points on Word FTW) already. Even though I've still got to do some more editing for uni purposes.

Do you guys think I should email my tutor first? I mean, I presume I'm allowed to do something with it, but I don't want to get into trouble...

(I've never come across anything that says you can't).

You should probably email your tutor first, just to be on the safe side.

OK.

I'll email her when I resumbit it. I'm going to start editing it with her comments (what I agree with) tomorrow.

I have a new title though: CHARLIE'S CHRISTMAS WISH
