Dongle is a new word for me. Had to Google that one.

And it does sound vaguely sexual.

Wtf is a dongle? It sounds like one of those stupid designer dog 'breeds'. Like a dachshund and beagle mix or something.

oh, I thought it was a general term in computing for any little thing you plug into something that does something, maybe that's just in Australia, we are a little odd. What I mean is a sticky thing with a USB plug that lets you use mobile wireless broadband.

oh, a broadband card.

Ah, gotcha.

ugh.

okay finaly i have the ending but I'm not really a fan of it.

:|

oh great now i'm having second thoughts.

okay wait wait wait...ugh.

I hope some passing Australian will come back and confirm that I am not going completely mad by using the word 'dongle' ...

Wikipedia agrees with you, Dragon. So no worries haha.

okay wait

well.......

meh it's not like they didn't help with the plot or anything.

screw them.

We're switching back to the original ending, everyone! Christ, I just spent like an hour re-doing it and now I'm going back again...XD

wohoo! backed by the world's most reputable source.

It's all good, Potter. Totally your right as the writer to totally screw with your characters as you see fit. That's what makes it fun. Ish.

Sometimes that's what it takes to make you feel better about what you have written, though, you know?

This is so awesome. I'm writing a chapter where one of my characters gets mugged/taken hostage, and I just happen to have a friend studying criminal justice who is totally going to hook me up with some of her textbook information about female victim mentality during a crime.

She's been typing for nine minutes. lol.

Totally.

better to waste time on writing stuff you don't include them to make the final product crap just because you don't want to ditch anything you've spent time on. fear not.

Aw thanks guys, haha. I'm trying to keep all the stuff I write on extra too, I used to have an entire word document like that.

But alright, I'm doing one more read-through and then posting it.

Time for read aloud fun!

This is going to be an awkward chapter to read aloud to myself, XD.

Someday I'll I have the guts/motivation to read my work out loud and my mom/some random passerby is going to think I'm a serial killer or possessed by the devil.

Then again, my mom seems to think I write only scifi and comic books. This fascinates me somewhat. Oh the ways only reading one of my stories changed how my mom looked at me...

Edit: Wow, that sentence didn't end where it was gonna when I started it.

Omg now Achitophel sounds like a Jedi Knight when I read him aloud.

"Knoweldge, young padawan."

Achitophel would hardcore fail as a Jedi. He's too paranoid/twitchy.

I'd go for the virgin but I'm feeling rather meh.

Also, from what I've read, he's not very good with the whole combat thing, which I gather from the movies is a pretty big thing for Jedis.

Meh.

+1

I have way too much fun with my villains.

Kit as a Jedi.

lol.

Though it'd be hilarious to see him with a lightsaber.

Yes, yes it would. xD

I love reading stuff out loud.

Do you guys have special voices you use for your characters?

In my head I do. And when I read to kids and stuff I put mild emphasis to dialogue so maybe.

Oh gawd, that's a frightening thought. I would die of shame if I ever read 1st-Draft Jerel's dialogue out loud. XD

Sure do, I use the Batman voice for my villian, you know forced raspy-deepness

"forced raspy-deepness" sound like a sex position.
