GemmaLisax: <grins and tucks you in with me> Ready to get the rec done now? lol
THEChickNorris: Fuck. I totally forgot the rec.
Yeah, let's get it done.
GemmaLisax: ok
THEChickNorris: Good thing I've already read it.
GemmaLisax: yeah, LOL
THEChickNorris: It's, I'm pretty sure going to end up being a prologue.
So there will be more.
GemmaLisax: Time Marches On by TheOneMama
yup
I got to see the time line
<grins>
THEChickNorris: Shit...thanks. Yeah.
GemmaLisax: LOL
THEChickNorris: You did?
I've not seen the time line.
<pouts>
GemmaLisax: I'm sure you will
lol
But this o/s...or prologue, should I say, really is a beautiful piece of writing
even if she doesn't continue it
which she should
THEChickNorris: So, there's really only one character thus far.
GemmaLisax: Yup
THEChickNorris: But we get great insight into what makes this character tick.
GemmaLisax: Yes
it also has a fuckawesome banner
LMAO
THEChickNorris: <pokes you>
GemmaLisax: the character is all internal dialogue and musings
<squeaks>
THEChickNorris: It does, but folks don't read this segment for the banners, no matter how fuckin awesome they are.
GemmaLisax: :P
THEChickNorris: This is a wonderful O/S...or prologue...or whatever...it's really good. And this is her first bit of writing.
GemmaLisax: Yes, she was VERY nervous about it
THEChickNorris: It's written in a very prosaic style.
Which I find difficult to write in.
But it's beautiful to read.
GemmaLisax: yes, I agree. I love the flow
I have to say that when i first read this, I was raving on about it
I even read it three times
THEChickNorris: I like that we don't have a simpering emo character...
GemmaLisax: I couldn't get enough
yes!
THEChickNorris: but we still get the internal musings and internal dialogue
GemmaLisax: yes
and everything is alluded to, rather than given in great detail
so its well, there’s no bogging down in details.
its a telling of a journey
THEChickNorris: It is.
This was my first real bit of Beta work, and I must say...I enjoyed it. Thank GOD it was such a lovely piece to read or I likely would have been put off from doing any more Beta work in the future.
I really enjoyed this, and I am hoping that I'll have more in the near future. HINT, HINT, HINT.
GemmaLisax: Oh, if I have anything to do with it there will be
I may have been <shifty eyes> somewhat vocal in requesting more
THEChickNorris: <dies laughing> Ok.
And you were well received, I assume?
GemmaLisax: yeah
LOL
I wasn't the only one either
I think everyone that talks to her and has read it has told her to continue it
THEChickNorris: I've followed the reviews...there were a LOT of folks that want more.
GemmaLisax: <nodslots>
yup
its the kind of writing style that you can't help but love to read
and it was interesting
really interesting
THEChickNorris: It was interesting.
GemmaLisax: and I loved how she ended it
:D
the whole thing was very poignant and emotive
THEChickNorris: Yes, your burning questions are answered at the end...welllll, some of them.
GemmaLisax: LOL
Yeah, I may have attacked her with questions afterwards
BUT
it will all be explained in the chapters to come
<grins BIG>
THEChickNorris: YOU attacked her with questions?
<is shocked>
<bursts out laughing>
GemmaLisax: I have no idea what you may be hinting at
THEChickNorris: You're inquisitive.
GemmaLisax: Yeah, we'll go with that
LOL
much better than nosey
THEChickNorris: But seriously, only my stellar restraint kept me from pelting her with questions.
GemmaLisax: Yeah, I have little to no will power when it comes to things like that
LMAO
THEChickNorris: <snickers cause you bought the stellar restraint bit>
GemmaLisax: You have more restraint than me
:P
And this is something that leaves you dying for more
It truly impressed me
THEChickNorris: I was quite impressed.
I must admit, with all the caveats that Mama approached me with, I was terrified to take a look...but I am so glad that she brought it to me. It is a wonderful piece of writing.
I think that she just needs more love in her review box...
GemmaLisax: HINT HINT
love in her box
<sniggers>
THEChickNorris: In fact, I think that everyone that reads it should be leaving her a review.
GemmaLisax: TBH, I'm surprised that anyone that reads it leaves without reviewing it
I WANTED to say something about it
There was no way I was walking away from that without letting the author know how fantastic it was
especially with it being her first piece of writing
THEChickNorris: Yes.
It really is lovely, and everyone should go read it and enjoy it and leave big love.
GemmaLisax: Especially if you want her to continue it
THEChickNorris: Exactly.
<starts digging in my treasure chest of wonders for a little something for the folks>
<still digging> They really better get to reading and reviewing.
GemmaLisax: <watches your arse as you're bent over> uh huh...I think so too
THEChickNorris: <holds up a pair of edible panties, raises an eyebrow and continues digging> It's a great piece and she's new to writing and would really appreciate the love.
AHA! <stands up with my riding crop>
<waves the crop at the wifey>
GemmaLisax: <runs to the fridge for the squirty cream, shouting over my shoulder> She really would, the support and love is crucial. And really, should be a given most of the time! Oh...<legs it back in>
THEChickNorris: Ok folks...Time Marches On by The One Mama...go read it and make sure to review it.
GemmaLisax: yes
go read it
NOW
