Teens Writing for Teens, the 5th

Mine are mostly sane. As of the whole illusion-sex thing yesterday, I don't think I'm allowed to claim full sanity anymore.

I do have three attempted-rape scenes.

Um hi...-waves- Arianna dragged me here ^^;

I have to ask. Are they all in the same novel?

Maaaaaybe.

Oh yes i do. You dont even know the half of it. But actually for once this one is sane!

The guy in question was the abusive boyfriend of Laura. Pip loves Laura so he beat this guy nearly to death from anger, then when this guy gets all better he comes back around to get Laura back, Larua says no, and he get violent again, but Laura's had enough and beats the violence right out of him. After all he gets away with raping her in court with a simple fine. So there is justice afterall.

I had 5 attempted rapes in one book, but that's because one of the guys after my MC's was a serial rapest/murder obessed with one of them. He was also somewhat mentally slow and really got what came to him in the end! Oh the creative ways i kill people!

Is it bad that I giggled at the thought of someone named "Pip" beating someone up? Pip sounds like a very un-violent person to me. ...I blame Moby Dick.

They're all in Suns and Stars.

No he totally is though. His full name is Pipkin McClennen and he's a genius (literally). Out of all the Freaks, he is the most non-violent one who always looks for a more peaceful answer to solve there horrible problems with serial killers and psycho's but he's also a Freak so low and behold the whole natural instincts kick in alot too, but he's the best at controling them.

In this case though he couldnt. He's loved Laura since he was 6 and to see this guy hurt her so badly he lost it. Big time. (he caused all those injuries without a weapon)

Just checking.

And that makes sense. But it still totally amuses me.

His name? Yeah i loved the name Pip since i was little! There's a long cute story behind his weird name.

It's a really cute name.

Thanks, it fits him so well too if you knew him. he's like my boyfriends favorite character

Awwww.

Meh, I should so be writing right now. Instead I'm still working on organizing my music.

You said you had to do that first before you tried to write again cause last time you were listening to Christmas music. XD

My characters are currently debating how bad going to court would be for Pip/them.

What's everyone else up to?

Oh and that happens to me when i play my music on random!

I have a playlist for when I write XD That way i don't get things like Christmas music or audio discs XD

yeah so do i but sometimes i get tired of it so i just go random and "Santa clause is coming to town" when i'm writing a fight scenes really ruins the mood

I can imagine that XD I had a scene i was writing once where a character was getting her heart ripped out of her chest and i had to turn my music off because my I pod started playing a really happy upbeat song.

hahahaha that's happened to me too!

Sorry for disappearing.

I mostly listen to albums, but if a song comes on when I'm listening to last.fm, iTunes on shuffle and even music TV that is totally going to ruin the vibe (sometimes they do, sometimes they don't, I have to change/skip.

Also, I may put my playlist on when I go upstairs for inspiration. Hopefully.

Does anyone have iTunes? I'm wondering how to incorporate the Genius feature into my writing music habits.

Oh my god i cant focus at all because of the people in my office talking about books and stuff... I cant crank up my music any more!

I use I tunes but i don't use the genius radio thing. So...i'm of no help XD

I dont use genius sorry. It annoys me because i have a very specific music taste

Hmm, I was thinking I could use to generate a plot, if a song inspires me. If more than one song inspires me (i.e. iTunes played on shuffle, two or more songs played in order inspire me), it wouldn't work. XD

I'm going to google. I'm sure there's a page somewhere talking about the wonders of the Genius feature.
