yubsieSpammers, the lot of you. :p
Anyway, I had a great time at the workshop. Kate, Deborah Hale says hi. :p Oh, and Lindsay, she and her daughter are already planning to come to Animaritime. :p
The first part of the workshop was about applying the Hero's Journey to romance writing. I wasn't sure about a romance workshop at first, but it turned out to mostly be about character development and generally really cool. She used a couple movies as examples so...
Kate, we TOTALLY need to have chick flick night when you get here. These movies sound seriously cute. :p
Talking about the Hero's Journey, I even pinpointed the exact point in the journey where the pacing of the Pretear manga falls apart. IT's the resurrection phase. :p
The afternoon session was about fantasy writing and the reason I was there in the first place. I'm really excited, I've got some more ideas for refining the culture in my book a bit more. :p
We made really good time driving back from Saint John and actually got there before my sister's party started. I finally gave Kelcie her Christmas present (volume one of Alice 19th :p) I got to see Sammy again, which is always exciting. Gave her my number so I can arrange for her to come visit me. And so we can talk about RotS. We played one of those murder mystery games. I was a radio shock jock, so I got to sit there and insult everyone. I found out in the last scene that my character had a wife and kids. I was a bit shocked. THe big last scene revelation for another character was that he was gay. Only problem was that the girl playing him had been trying to make him gay the whole time. :p Then we watched Phantom of the Opera, which is always fun.
I had mussels for supper. They were YUMMY. :p
Being the dork I am, I actually tried to figure out how to write the name of the villain in![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
shinshirayuki. Mind you, since I don't actually know Japanese AT ALL, this is probably not a particularly good guess. タリスタン
Anyway, the point is... his poor teachers. :p
