The movie is awesomeness--love the castle and everything!

<333 Howl. Seriously have a crush on him

Geek_Pride · Dec 26, 2009

Hehe!

I love you too much to go to war with you Choco. Plus, I'm tweaking the kidnapping plan

chocowrites · Dec 26, 2009

Ah I love you too much too

*puts down guns*

And yay for kidnapping plans!

One question. It's a sexy look, but why doesn't Howl put his arms in his sleeves? LOL

I have no idea. I guess he's too cool for sleeves? Lolololol.

Would readers get tired of depressing scenes? I think I'll have 10 in a row...

Geek_Pride · Dec 26, 2009

I love when writers reply to your fangirl squealing emails.

They are rockstars <33

ETA: I ordered Looking for Alaska and An Abundance of Katherine with the gift card!

Now I get to order Messenger and Getting the Girl with mums card.

Life's good.

chocowrites · Dec 26, 2009

Ah lucky girl Amna

Looking for Alaska was great, but I didn't like Abundance as much.

I just ordered I am Messenger with my Xmas gift card cause I wanted my own copy. But I'm not sure about Getting the Girl, do you know if you have to read Fighting Reuben Wolfe first? I heard Getting is a sequel somewhere, and I can't for the life of my get a hold of Reuben. *sad face*

Karla, I think it depends how you write it. Some depressing books are marvelous, some depressing books make me so upset I can't read them.

Maybe. AC gets pretty depressing around the end, but Riley keeps the dark humor going. Like Choco said, I guess... it depends on whether it's interesting or not.

Nice choices, Amna

<3

OMG I am now at the part where Howl's hair turns red and he freaks out... this movie is awesome!

half.jaded · Dec 26, 2009

Morning guys.

And it all depends on execution KC.

Messenger by Mark Zusak, Pride?

*is still sleepy, but will work on her 15k for today*

bclement412 · Dec 26, 2009

THe Forest of Hands and Teeth had to be the most depressing book I've ever read, but it was beautifully written

chocowrites · Dec 26, 2009

Yes Peachie it is! Hair scene is one of my fave parts

Ahh I couldn't stand Forest after a while. Everything was just so...horrible. Even solid writing couldn't make me like it--just the characters and one thing after another and...*sigh*

ETA: hey jade

Geek_Pride · Dec 26, 2009

Thanks Emilia and Choco!

I couldn't find Reuben ANYWHERE. So upset

Me too! >.< Except this 30 dollar copy on Amazon and I'm too scrooge to buy it

iherzi · Dec 26, 2009

Back from boxing day.

Picked up a bunch of DVDs and reduced Christmas chocolate. *U*

Oh and yay for Howl's Moving Castle! Love that movie.

Geek_Pride · Dec 26, 2009

LOL! Me too Choco

KarlaErikaCal · Dec 26, 2009

Well . . . based on FNW/MDW comments, I think the scenes are fine lol

Unless people are too nice :tongue

Geek_Pride · Dec 26, 2009

Resists temptation to start new WIP.

RESIST DAMMIT!

half.jaded · Dec 26, 2009

I have a question........

Let's say Person A was run over by a car. His wife's at home and she's a drunk. His kids are away.

....How long will it take to inform the wife/kids and which one will be informed?

.........oO

*confusion*

free_cashews_on_me · Dec 26, 2009

I've got a crazy twist in plan for TKIH.

Revolution's End will have a twist too, but I think people (if people ever read it) may see it coming. I'm giving out clues about it left and right.

AryaT92 · Dec 26, 2009

^ Sounds like a question for the research / expertise section

peachiemkey · Dec 26, 2009

"And now I've got something I wanna protect. It's you." - Howl

*SWOON*

chocowrites · Dec 26, 2009

RESIST AMNA! *pines for Reuben*

Yay cash

Jade, I'd go to story research like Arya suggested. They've got some really helpful people there

Awww. haha, I'm glad you're liking it. Howl's Moving Castle= my obsession.

Ahh I'm realizing that I'm obsessed with too many things. Lol.

*confusion*

I would thiiink it would probably be the wife, just because they would probably get the contact information through the address on Person A's license. Perhaps? Hard to say if they would phone or show up at the door and when that would be. I suppose they would need someone to ID the body? *babbles on even though she has no clue what she's talking about*

Why do so many Wii games require overpriced numchucks? *scowls*

ETA: Annnd I'm listening to Lily Allen's song, F*ck You. I keep wanting to sing along, but there are smallish children around. :tongue

bclement412 · Dec 26, 2009

I think it depends on how old the kids are. I think they'd tell both, but since the wife isn't exactly in the best state they might ask the kids (only if they're adults) to deal with the police stuff or whatever it is
