I hope you don't mind minx but I totally need this thread so I am subscribing and will be back to ask for help when I feel I can write a coherent sentence *mutters about damn colds*

Heh you're welcome to it Rayne, you helped me put the idea into words after all!

Okay Ausus, I'll have a read of your thread now, I slept all day

 

[monique_minx]

It's perfect Minxy.

Now will someone please help me with Rules in Blood and Attraction? I am not super great at the spy thing, this isn't my best thread by far, but I am hitting a wall.

Do I give up? Does Jolie dump the car, the clothes, and get cash? Help!!

The best thing about this is that Jolie could have a billion directions at this point, you're not so far in to the thread that you're without avenues.

She has the artifact, the car, she's not without means at this point. Her best bet would be only to use cash - credit cards and bank accounts are traceable.

As are cell phones easily triangulated and tracked. So ensure she uses a public phone if any and dumps her own cell far from wherever she is going to end up - by the looks of the character, Markos would have taught her to be smart.

If you don't want to create an NPC contact, send them both to a low profile hotel where her means won't be sucked up fast or else, a place Markos wouldn't think to look for her - somewhere she's never been.

If you decide on the hotel, use false identities (she should have those) to sign in under, make Nathan her husband on the books - they're not looking for a married couple under a false name.

She should have emergency shit in her car for just about anything, if she is a good spy then she is a prepared one. Especially when she goes on assignment.

This will give you a place to start for your next post and then your character and Nathan can plot your next move. She should be trying to think of what Markos will do to find her, what his next move will be also.

Hope this helps you babe

*Looks up at the above text and scratches my head*

Yeah....I watch too many spy movies I think...

Okay I am going to throw out some simple things that will make it easier for me to read YOUR threads. I'm an avid reader but even some of who I would consider great writers on this site seem to make these simple yet annoying mistakes repeatedly.

No. 1: YOUR and YOU'RE. Use them correctly. It's so annoying when people mix them up.

"I love your shoes." - Denoting a possession.

"You're going to love these shoes." - You're is just 'you are' abbreviated and it references a person.

No. 2: When your character is speaking, create another paragraph! When another character is speaking - whole new paragraph. EVERY TIME! No excuses for creating a block of speech that no one can muddy through and understand.

No. 3: The endless sentence. Just stop. Seriously. If your sentence continues for more than four lines and you can't full stop? Seek help.

No. 4: PROOFREAD YOUR WORK! Always! I can always find the time to reread and edit, you can too, no excuses.

No. 5: TO, TOO and TWO.

"Are you coming to the party?" - Slam dunk and very easy, rarely confused.

"This is just too easy!" - Always, always confused with 'to'. This is an impact word, use it correctly!

"There are two of us!" - Numbers. Should. Not. Be. This. Hard!

No. 6: THERE, THEIR and THEY'RE. This happens all too often, I am going to kill people.

"No, no, she's hiding over there!" - THERE is a place!

"Two people are at the club on their own." - THEIR is a possessive adjective.

"They're not coming back, are they?" - THEY'RE is just 'THEY ARE' abbreviated.

No. 7: WE'RE and WHERE.

"Where are they?" - An adverb. Seeking a place.

"We're not going!" - 'WE ARE' abbreviated and completely different.

Use this information wisely, stop making my eyes bleed and don't make this a waste of my time. Teacher Minx says class dismissed! ​

Don't read my threads for your own sanity Minx, I am shocking with grammer and spelling.

*blushes* I didnt know he read any of my threads......poor fella if he is using me as his bench mark. He has natural talent so I don't know why he worries so much he is really very good, I am enjoying my thread with him.

Hmmm well I know he's reading one with you and PD at least, ummm and...no actually two I think. One Spanish one he mentioned to me and one military one I think.

Sometimes I lose track though heh he speaks better than I do in Spanish and we just rapid fire back and forth. Sometimes I go 'wha?' lol!

I'm a bit slow at the moment, trying to get one thread out, what is it with people and all posting at once?! Three in one day is ridiculous! How am I supposed to keep up?!

Madre de dios!

 

[yeishia]

Now that is an extremely daunting proposition, Yeishia. I for one could never write Jeannette in Vassal any where as well as you do.

I was joking Veroe, but thanks for what I hope was a compliment?

I would much rather you concentrate on your own characters in my thread rather than write mine for me, yes that is a big hint *giggles*

I was referring to all the threads I have had to leave, but did not want to, due to my ill health.

I have put all of this on the first post, people are welcome to throw out their own little pet peeves when it comes to reading others' work. I invite this and if you can't example or explain the rule then I will happily help you out too!

 

[monique_minx]

Ok, I am about to take over a character in a thread because that writer has vanished. I've never done this before. Advice/suggestions?

Well obviously read the thread heh! How far in is it? What's the character like and do you feel able enough to write it without changing their personality?

 

[monique_minx]

Oh and Shy, if you're around and manage to see this post, could you please post a link of that thread you're wanting me to cameo for? I've lost it but I'm gonna see if I can find it in your thread list thingy....hehehe

Mhmm, yes I would, That is if you wish to. I don't wish to put any pressure on you.

Ok, I am about to take over a character in a thread because that writer has vanished. I've never done this before. Advice/suggestions?

Hey Vail.
1. Read the story and catch up
2. Discuss any plans that the writers may have had for the character
3. In your own mind establish the essence of the character. What are their main attributes/weaknesses/strengths/thinking patterns/emotional level etc.
4. Once the character is clear in your own mind, take it into your hands. It is important that you stay true to your own writing style. Most people assume that to take over another writer's character is to copy their style. I think it is highly unreasonable for people to assume that you will just copy the previous writer in style and approach. You are your own writer and your style is unique only to you. If there is some part of the character that doesn't quite fit in with that, mold the character (if possible) to fit you.

For the first couple of posts I would keep in close contact with the other writer/s to make sure they are happy with the direction and approach you are using. Just remember, the only person you really have to please is yourself. If you aren't happy writing that character, do not suffer in it.

 

[monique_minx]

Mhmm, yes I would, That is if you wish to. I don't wish to put any pressure on you.

No it's ok, just not sure where you'd like it to go. I'm not in such a great frame of mind to write now but is it ok if I just post in the OOC later when I'm feeling a bit more into it?

Oh sweetie, of course it is! There is no rush at the moment. Some people are/have been away so the thread has slowed. So there is no rush....easy breezy baby

 

[monique_minx]

Okay since there is no more support queries for threads, I am going to give everyone who wants to have a little dabble, a shot at something to boost some inspiration.

The challenge is this, to describe a scene outside your window. Right now, describe in detail everything you see. Try not to go overboard but just 1-3 paragraphs tops about what you see

 

[Veroe]

support question here.

Inside the Inferno House

My idea is to bring Marian to climax with dominics fingers here, which I could probably do on my own, but I'd like some tips and tricks or general advice I wouldn't think of on my own to make certain I really rock Dee's world here.

I'm having a read of this Veroe, just give me a bit to finish it it's quite long but so far very good, I'm gonna have to add it to my reading list now!

 

[Veroe]

yeah, its my first foray into my domly side...I also wanted to make sure on it that I took as much time on each step as I can to eccentuate the details...too often people rush through them here...being the dom I can make sure the two of us don't skimp on the details.

 

[monique_minx]

Okay Veroe, I'm done with my reading

Firstly, well done so far! I've enjoyed it! Secondly, the tricks and tips and advice

Okay so he can flick the clitoris, rubbing it in circles gets a good start or side to side but up and down from the side will be what really gets her going. Fingering inside...it's tricky to get a woman off that way and few will actually get off, even from pressing the g spot.

So he can search out her arousal that way and get her going a bit better but without some clitoral stimulation, she's never getting off. So he can spread his hand if he likes, use two fingers inside and the thumb on the clit but (and I'm speaking from a personal standpoint) generally that doesn't work because it's just not enough focused effort on the clit.

I usually use my middle finger and index finger, working up and down on the right side of my clit, placing ample pressure. It would be better if her legs were stretched out in front of her since you're only using your fingers because generally during a clitoral orgasm with only the fingers, a woman's legs will tense up somewhat.

I hope this is useful...

(NONE OF YOU GET TO USE THIS AGAINST ME!)

Just a comment, but cell phones can be purchased without plans and then minutes are purchased for the phone with no registration of the number to a person only the number. ATT Go Phone, Boost Mobile are examples. Jason Bourne uses them a lot.

 

[VampiricTouch]

So. After a recent bout of my own slow posting, I lost the cowriter for the thread Omen.

It was meant to be a fairly slow non-accurate historical romance thread, very different from my normal choice of stories. The intent was to try out something new and expand what I am able to write.

I guess, part of why I'm still attached to this one is because it's still a fairly new thread, there aren't that many posts in and unlike most of my stories, I have a fairly good idea as to where the story is going to go.

Synopsis - A false prophecy leaves a girl running for her life. In an effort to get to the bottom of why she is suddenly persecuted, as well as to aid her escape, she disguises herself as a male. On her way, she runs straight into the people she should be avoiding. Circumstances make it so that she can't leave without causing suspicion, and during that time she falls for the person that just might be the one that turns her in....

What I was looking for in the male part, is someone who's very loyal to his country. His own loyalties often conflict with the morality of some of the commands he's been given by court, but that loyalty has always stood it's ground. I wanted to see the struggle between personal feelings and the upstanding citizen he's been so proud of.


Anyways, after that introduction, the question is should I keep trying to find a writer for it? I don't particularly mind starting from the beginning, but I wanted to get away from the N/C I've been so fond of. It's not a very flashy story. Any suggestions as to whom I should pitch this at?
