_JUNEBUG just joined "The Uber Abode: Talk to the
Authors"
SOBBIE> hi junebug
_JUNEBUG> Hello
there!
ARABIAN66> hiiiii
_JUNEBUG> How's
it all going??
VANGOES> hi!
ARABIAN66> we were afraid that
you wont come
SOBBIE> its going good here now
_JUNEBUG> I have to say this whole chat thing is quite new to
me - be kind, alright?
_JUNEBUG>
-laughs-
REDBACK1> no worries..... *S*
SOBBIE> no
prob
_JUNEBUG> Sorry about being late - I try to be on
time.
VANGOES> i want to thank those who updates the Uber Abode.
it's an awesome site!
SOBBIE> how is your holiday going junebug?
_JUNEBUG> It's going fanastic at the
moment
ARABIAN66> talking about beeing on time when is the next
update
ARABIAN66> ?
SOBBIE> redback does do a really nice
job
VANGOES> Thanks, Redback!
_JUNEBUG>
-laughs- Hey, I've been writng as much as I can at the moment. Page 14 is coming
along nicely.
SOBBIE> great
ARABIAN66> the hall story is
coming along nicely
_JUNEBUG> You guys are really
lucky here in the US - such gorgeous weather at the moment. Have been doing lots
of hiking and am trying to head off to the Appalachian
tomorrow
SOBBIE> i just reread all you have up now on day and
night
_JUNEBUG> Re-read the whole thing? That's quite
a feat, considering how damn long that story is at the moment
-laughs-
SOBBIE> yeah it is it took me almost all
night
VANGOES> Will you be posting any updates while on vacation,
Junebug?
_JUNEBUG> I guess one of the things I
am really interested in is hearing your take on how the characters are
developing - and perhaps where you want them to go...
SOBBIE>
to bed
_JUNEBUG> Aside from the obvious, of course.
-G-
SOBBIE> oh sorry
ARABIAN66> lol
_JUNEBUG> -laughs- I will try and get something up before
the end of my holiday, yes. Page 14 is quite exciting in terms of "developing"
(furthering?) their relationship
SOBBIE> cool
VANGOES>
Is Piersen keyed in on how Kai really feels about her?
_JUNEBUG> About Piersen, Right now? I don't think so...
-con't-
ARABIAN66> you are not rushing them and thats realy
the best part about it you can see there friend ship developing
_JUNEBUG> She has too much going on inside her at the
moment, and there is a lot she has to sort out in her own life before she can
start actively allowing someone else into her life -con't-
_JUNEBUG> The key to this is, of course, that Kai has
slipped in -ha- without her knowing...which is why she is so damn
clueless!
_JUNEBUG> Thanks Arabian - I
like to think of their relationship real time... it makes it difficult for me to
develop their characters further if they can't achieve any complexity within
their own relationships... do you know what I mean?
SOBBIE>
but does Kai know how piersen feels about her?
ARABIAN66>
yes
REDBACK1> yeah
_JUNEBUG> I think Kai
realises that there is a lot of grief within Piersen
-con't-
VANGOES> Piersen sees Kai as a good friend,
right?
SOBBIE> yes
_JUNEBUG> Yes, Piersen
sees Kai as a good friend and that is what Kai is determined to be to her first
- a good friend that can help her re-discover herself. Perhaps "re-discovery" is
the wrong word since I feel Piersen has never quite discovered herself until now
-con't-
VANGOES> Junebug, were you leading up to some
problems that people might have with Kai & Piersen's friendship in the last
update?
XENA_NUT> Hello everybody
_JUNEBUG> Her entire life before her coming to Sydney and
meeting Kai has been a struggle between what she wants and what her family
expects of her. She has never had the chance to find out who she can be, without
the constraints of family/society/company
expectations.
ARABIAN66> hi xena
_JUNEBUG> Hi Xena_Nut
XENA_NUT> What have I
missed
ARABIAN66> she told us the ending
VANGOES> Mums the
word.
XENA_NUT> Naw, I don't believe it!
ARABIAN66> lol
_JUNEBUG> Vangoes: Yes, I was definitely leading up to
problems re: P&K's relationship. Nothing ever goes smoothly, and for the
last couple of chapters their relationship has really been seen through the
vaseline-lens/rose coloured glasses. They are both promominent people and that
has to affect their relationship
SOBBIE> lol
REDBACK1>
Xena Nut... you will be able to see it on the transcription once its out .....
*S*
_JUNEBUG> -=laughs- Arabian, you are too
good.
XENA_NUT> Yeah, right
_JUNEBUG>
I don't think I can tell you the ending even if I tried, to tell you the
truth... Though I'm open to ideas!
SOBBIE> oh darn.... i forgot
to log that part
SOBBIE> ahhhhhh the never ending story
ARABIAN66> i
know you can't blame me for trying thou i love this story
_JUNEBUG>
_JUNEBUG> I love the story too -
though the most frustrating thing is seeing them live out their lives inside
your head but not being able to find the words to describe
it
ARABIAN66> hiemma
_JUNEBUG> I
should just invite you all in for a while - might make life a bit easier,
wouldn't it?-laughs-
XENA_NUT> Hi emmaruth
_JUNEBUG> Hi Emma
.Emma> Hello
SOBBIE> hi
emma
ARABIAN66> yes it would
SOBBIE> and i thought you didnt do
brain surgery
HARPER_KELS> hello
XENA_NUT> Hi H_K
_JUNEBUG> -laughs- Brain surgery is easy compared to
writing, believe me. There is surprisingly little finesse in
it!
HARPER_KELS> hey x_n -g-
_JUNEBUG> Hi Harper
SOBBIE> yeah i actually do
know about brain surgery
HARPER_KELS> so what question can i ask that
hasn't been posted yet...? lol
XENA_NUT> JuneBug, may I ask a question:
are we supposed to know/remember Euan Fraser
HARPER_KELS> hey
junebug!!! -s-
_JUNEBUG> Oh, it's a blank slate here,
Harper. Ask whatever you like. -G-
XENA_NUT> If we are, I have
forgotten
ARABIAN66> he is the guy mensioned in the first parts
right
_JUNEBUG> XenaNut: Euan Fraser was a
character I introduced in part 9 -con't-
XENA_NUT> OK, now I
remember
VANGOES> Euan was friends with Kai along with ... the blonde
woman. Can't remember her name now.
HARPER_KELS> well...with brain
surgery being mentioned...i was wondering myself...what is it that you do for a
living...?
_JUNEBUG> He was a good friend of Kai's
during her research years in Cambridge before they had a falling out over
Laine.
XENA_NUT> This is going to be painful for Kai,
hmmmm?
XENA_NUT> He is Sir Leighton's son?
_JUNEBUG> Harper: I am halfway through a medical degree at the
moment. As for what I do for a living...
HARPER_KELS> in your introduction you spend quite some
time explaining how kai is supposed to be pronounced...any afinity to
german(y)...?
_JUNEBUG> XenaNUt: Yes - Euan is
Sir LEighton's son. It's one happy family in the upper echelons of British
society... -smirks-
HARPER_KELS> HALFway...?! let them read
n&d...what's half-way there...?! lol
VANGOES> Gotta go. Junebug, enjoy
your US vacation and we look forward to the next update!
_JUNEBUG> Harper: Yes.. Kai is a german name, actually a
bloke's name.
_JUNEBUG> see you Vangoes
-waves-
XENA_NUT> OK, JuneBug: when do you leave
Atlanta?
XENA_NUT> Bye Vangoes
_JUNEBUG> I leave
Atlanta on Sunday morning. Are you in the area?
HARPER_KELS> why
did you pick kai then...? you just liked the sound of the
name...?
XENA_NUT> I'm in Southern California, Orange
County
ARABIAN66> when we are goping to know about the bet
junebug?
_JUNEBUG> I love the sound of "Kai".
There is something about the sounds of names that is important to me. I think
names are very important - almost like a summary of the person they are, or the
person you want them to be.
HARPER_KELS> hm
_JUNEBUG> The bet? -laughs- I have been working on that
section in advence for some time now. I think you will enjoy the
outcome.
XENA_NUT> I'm sure we will
_JUNEBUG> It's also a good opportunity to show all of you
what Australia's like outside of Sydney
SOBBIE> i bet redback
knows what its like outside of sydney
_JUNEBUG> Does
anyone here go camping often enough to give me some disaster stories I can
introduce, perhaps...? -laughs-
SOBBIE> i live in the woods does
that help?
_JUNEBUG> Got your share of the black bears
lately?
SOBBIE> swat teams
XENA_NUT> Is that where a bear
...
ARABIAN66> i live in the desert lol
XENA_NUT> I live behind the
Orange Curtain
HARPER_KELS> am i the only one living in a city?!
rofl
ARABIAN66> you can use a camel junebug you have them
there
SOBBIE> brown bears, cougars racoons. crack labs
_JUNEBUG> -laughs- Well, there are woods and deserts in
Australia - thouygh I don't know if I'll send them that
far.
REDBACK1> If your after Australian camping stories I have
a few.... considering I camped for just under a year full time through out
Australia........ *S*
XENA_NUT> I thought that was meth klabs?
_JUNEBUG> I can try and get them a camel...
-laughs-
ARABIAN66> lol
SOBBIE> meth labs on the other side
of the street
XENA_NUT> Oh, that's right
_JUNEBUG> Maybe a marijuana plantation is more like it here in
Australia
SOBBIE> thats up the block
ARABIAN66> lol
_JUNEBUG> Oh I can see it already - "Kai, Kai - I'm feeling
kinda dizzy all of a sudden.. what is that you're burning in the
campfire?"
ARABIAN66> lol
SOBBIE> sorry its been an
interesting week here with the drug labs
REDBACK1> lol.....
SOBBIE>
lol
XENA_NUT> Where are you Sobbie
_JUNEBUG>
Segue to where they lose all the inhibitions for a few hours
-
XENA_NUT> Oooh
SOBBIE> the cascade mountains in
oregon
_JUNEBUG> I don't know if that's been done
in uber fanfic before...
ARABIAN66> they'll get watsted maby
then something will happen
XENA_NUT> OK, I understand. You DO have
labs
_JUNEBUG> Cascade Mtns are lovely. I am heading
up to Washington State next and hope to do lots of hiking
there!
SOBBIE> yep one just across the street and the pot field is
really just down the block
_JUNEBUG> -laughs-
Convenient!
SOBBIE> where in washington are you going?
_JUNEBUG> I have friends in Seattle
XENA_NUT>
LOL
SOBBIE> yeah if you like it when the swat team shows up every other
month
SOBBIE> i grew up in seattle
XENA_NUT> How long are you going
to be in the States altogether?
_JUNEBUG> It depends -
how do they look in the Swat team? -laughs-
SOBBIE> big burly
butch
SOBBIE> guys
XENA_NUT> that was cute
SOBBIE> guys with
big guns
_JUNEBUG> I am in the US for another week or
so.
_JUNEBUG> Are they all males in the Swat
teams?
XENA_NUT> Well, it is nice that you will have such a long
holiday
ARABIAN66> you are missing the games junebug
SOBBIE> all the
ones i saw on sunday were
_JUNEBUG> Yes, finally! A
holiday has been a long time coming. Shame that I am missing the games,
though... It's ironic that I'm here watching the telecast 15 hours after it
happens, when it's happening live at home...
XENA_NUT> Arabian66:
what's on now?
_JUNEBUG> Equestrian is on at the
moment, isn't it?
.Emma> Yeah
XENA_NUT> That will be cool, I
love the horsies
ARABIAN66> they are throing the metal ball i don't know
the name in english
_JUNEBUG> Shot
Put?
ARABIAN66> i think so
XENA_NUT> Biiiiiiig guys?
ARABIAN66> yes very lol
_JUNEBUG> I was
rooting for the big viking. He was great. -laughs-
ARABIAN66> the
sweed
XENA_NUT> Well, when the games come on tonight, I'll
watch
ARABIAN66> finland just finished
_JUNEBUG>
So tell me -considering you are all into fanfic somehow or another, and I have
one week's left of holiday - what is a must to read at the
moment?
XENA_NUT> I haven't really been watching
SOBBIE> day
and night
ARABIAN66> night and day]
XENA_NUT> or, night and
day
HARPER_KELS> n&d
XENA_NUT> LOL
_JUNEBUG>
ARABIAN66> speed of the beat of my
heart,also anne azel storys
_JUNEBUG> Hello
Ergomas
ERGOMAS> greetings everyone
SOBBIE> sorry i have a
tendancy for dislexia
_JUNEBUG> I have a tendency for
typos... -laughs-
HARPER_KELS> there hasn't been an update of speed
for SOOO long now...or did i just miss it...?!
XENA_NUT> I liked Second
Chances by Lynne Norris
SOBBIE> that too
ERGOMAS> I came to ask a
question about an item I received during a GM event 2 days and no one seems to
know what its for
HARPER_KELS> exposure, of course...-g-
_JUNEBUG> I have heard good things about Speed... but I can't
read stuff that's unfinished or I'll never get any work
done...
ARABIAN66> they will post anupdat first week of
october
XENA_NUT> Second Chances is finished and good
ARABIAN66>
update
ARABIAN66> it is about doctors also
_JUNEBUG> Excellent - I think I've probably just muddied the
waters for myself a bit more!
HARPER_KELS> anybody wants something
rather short, read "untitled: story of me" by advocate...in case you didn't read
it yet...one of the funniest pieces ever!
ARABIAN66> i read
that
XENA_NUT> Well, guys. I've got to go see about dinner. Have a great
rest of your holiday JuneBug and I await your prose
_JUNEBUG> Did you guys envisage uber-X or uber-G more as a
doctor type?
XENA_NUT> Bye
_JUNEBUG>
See you XenaNut
HARPER_KELS> bye xena_nut
ARABIAN66> uber
x
.Emma> uber-G
ARABIAN66> lol
SOBBIE> neither
junebug..... i know way too many doctors
_JUNEBUG>
That's what I find strange... 'cos you wouldn't think uber-X would have the best
bedside manner or anyti8ng...
ARABIAN66> the real doctors don't
look that good
_JUNEBUG> But on the other hand you
wouldn't see uberG take a knife to someone... even though that's what we've been
seeing in Season 5 a lot, lately...
SOBBIE> lol
_JUNEBUG> Speaking of which, I finally saw the rest of Season
5!
SOBBIE> and real docs dont have that personality
_JUNEBUG> Oh, I don't know - I know a few that can get me
palpitating...
REDBACK1> JuneBug ... do you have a background in
art ??? how did you choose this profession??? any relavance to your real life...
ie: friends etc... that you based the characters on...
ROXANN2072> Hi
all
_JUNEBUG> RedBack: Lots of questions! Where to
start...?
_JUNEBUG> Well, medicine is something
I knew I wanted to do since I was very little.
-con't-
ARABIAN66> i loved the scene at the begening when they
were in the resterant i think it was morrocon
_JUNEBUG> My family has a medical background so it made it that
much easier... -con't-
REDBACK1> lol.... sorry... anywhere's
fine...
_JUNEBUG> I love art, and I used to paint
though I draw more now with charcoals. And I make furniture, which is a good
blend of art and functionality to me
_JUNEBUG> Arabian: I loved that scene too - it was the
beginning of a friendship, and it was very important that it worked out fine for
me. I';m glad you liked it. Thanks
ARABIAN66> i did very
much
SOBBIE> yeah spitting in public does make for a really good
friendship
_JUNEBUG> Redback: ABout relevance to
my real life - everything I have written has been drawn from something in my
life; whether directly or indirectly through the experiences of friends and
people who have decided to share.
ARABIAN66> i kept thinking
what they are going to say next
_JUNEBUG> Well,
we're talking about sharing bodily fluids here...
-laughs-
SOBBIE> lol
_JUNEBUG> Or
in the case of Kai, whether she was going to saw anything at
all!
ARABIAN66> yes that what i like about her
_JUNEBUG> She wasn't too chatty then. Not too many people
bring it out in her.
_JUNEBUG> Any
MOrrocans here? -laughs-
SOBBIE> not me
ARABIAN66> how
many chapters you going to write ?
HARPER_KELS> half-egyptian...that's
the best i can offer...-g-
ARABIAN66> i am from the arabian gulf but i
know every thing about them
_JUNEBUG> How many
chapters? -laughs- My beta reader and I always joke about how I should cut my
hand off if I write more than 20 parts...
ARABIAN66> harber do
you know arabic
HARPER_KELS> i can only greet, swear and
count...-g-
HARPER_KELS> where are you from, arabian?
ARABIAN66>
write as much as you like no complent her
_JUNEBUG> Half-egyptian! I haev always wanted to travel to
Egypt, the Arabian Gulf and the Middle East...
SOBBIE> i like long
stories
ARABIAN66> i am from QATAR
ARABIAN66> WELCOME HERE ANY
TIME
REDBACK1> JuneBug...have you written for a long time or did
something influence you to start writing??? (eg: some story that you read that
inspired)....
ARABIAN66> harper i know yopur dilect
also
HARPER_KELS> cool...you're welcome with me any time, too...i don't
live in egypt though but europe is an ok nice place as well...-g-
_JUNEBUG> Long stories? -laughs- Sometimes I think I can
probably finish off the story in another part or two... but where's the fun in
that, right/.
HARPER_KELS> right!
ROXANN2072>
right!
SOBBIE> right
_JUNEBUG> Redback: I
haven't really written anything aside from high school essays and short stories
until now - you may recall that in the introduction I mentioned that this whole
thing started out as a dream
ARABIAN66> june buge as much as i
hate it when you are late with an update as much as i want you to take your time
writing
_JUNEBUG> -con't- Dreams that happened one
night after another like a soap opera, following each other in
succession
ROXANN2072> Loved that part where Piers is
convinced to get THAT dress - what was his name don't shoot,
please
ROXANN2072> great dream
SOBBIE> i wonder if you might
need a bit of psychotherapy
_JUNEBUG> -laughs- Thanks,
Arabian.. I think! I am very obsessive about my writing - call it
pedantic...
_JUNEBUG> James - that was fun,
wasn't it? It was something I needed to write for Piersen. In many ways James'
relationship with her empowers her and strengthens her self
image
ARABIAN66> you know you post anupdat every 2 or 3 weeks
but i check every day
_JUNEBUG> You are very
persistent! -laughs- Very admirable, though I doubt if I can ever update every
day...
HARPER_KELS> now piersen, i think is a really beautiful
name...! -s-
ROXANN2072> I loved it I was laughing and was egging on
James he's great for her like that.
_JUNEBUG>
Psychotherapy... I often consider writing down my thoughts and dreams as
therpeutic, particularly in view of how one must act in the hospital system and
with patients...
ROXANN2072> Hey I check everyday
too!]
SOBBIE> i was kidding.... you have great dreams
SOBBIE> i
check every day too
_JUNEBUG> Harper: Thank you! I
love the name Piersen as well. Though it took forever to find the name, since I
am so obsessive about names. My beta reader and I threw alternatives around like
mud pies for weeks before coming up with one that suits her. I guess it reflects
the fluidity of her character.
ARABIAN66> june bug i thout P
will be the first to feel something about K but it was the other way
around
ROXANN2072> I've tried to write down my dreams but I have
problems getting it from my head to my hand to paper or 'puter
_JUNEBUG> Sobbie: No offence taken -smiles- Psychotherapy can
be a lot of fun, even when there is nothing "wrong" with
you...
HARPER_KELS> so...is piersen an english name
then...?
SOBBIE> psychotherapy and fun dont usually make it to the
same sentence with me
_JUNEBUG> ARabian: Strange,
isn't it? -laughs- But I think for Kai, it is a lot clearer for her to recognise
love when she feels it. She may be better at hiding/denying it, but because her
interactions with her colleagues/other people are so "black and white", I think
she is more receptive to the subtleties of attraction, warmth,
etc.
ROXANN2072> Wow
_JUNEBUG>
Roxann: I probably have as many problems getting my thoughts/dreams down as you
do! -laughs-
ARABIAN66> i don't know why but any storys that have
doctors in them i read it first
ROXANN2072> How about when James got
Kai to sing with Alan at the piano
_JUNEBUG>
Harper: Piersen is a name I made up. Strangely enough, the inspiration that
sparked the birth of her name was a newspaper report on a dickhead of a
critic/essayist in Sydney that said something particularly controversial at the
time... -laughs- Not very Piersen. I guess my theory about names doesn't always
apply...
_JUNEBUG> Sobbie: Perhaps it was
only fun because it was my (medical) friends and I trying to practice on each
other. But that kind of thing can tell you a lot about yourself - somethings we
want to find out, and others we don't.
HARPER_KELS> well, congrats
then...i'm sure that name will make it into junior high eventually...wouldn't be
surprised if there would be some little piersens all over the world
soon...-g-
SOBBIE> lol
_JUNEBUG> -laughs- Well,
I'm sure you know about the birth of a little Kerrison last
year...
HARPER_KELS> -rofl-
ROXANN2072> Pierson is a name one
can become attached to quite unexpectely
HARPER_KELS> gee...and probably
one won't be able to count all the harpers out there...lol
_JUNEBUG> Harper's a fantastic name. -smiles- I could do much
worse naming a kid of mine Harper.
ARABIAN66> harper any relation
to the other harper
SOBBIE> are you planning on having kids
junebug?
_JUNEBUG> Piersen has a sound about it -
if you imagine the sound of it, particularly with a British accent, there is a
loftiness in the tone that is offset with the softness of the "s" sound. I find
it very appropriate for Piersen indeed.
HARPER_KELS> all
harpers...it was a bit confusing at the beginning having u-gabby named harper in
speed and u-xena in exposure...but it works well with both...
_JUNEBUG> Having Kids... for lunch, or dinner?
-laughs-
HARPER_KELS> lol
ROXANN2072> hehehehe
_JUNEBUG> -cringes- sorry. I like children, but I like them
more when they are not mine. They don't seem to like me too
much
SOBBIE> lol
HARPER_KELS> aw...just wait 'til they're old
enough to read your stories...they'll love you then...but probably they won't be
kids anymore by then...lol
_JUNEBUG> I smile and try
to be friendly to them but they always start to cry. I don't have the touch, it
seems. It is particularly embarrassing when I am seeing a patient in the
doctor's rooms and they bring in a kid that was perfectly happy coming in but
breaks down into screaming hysterics at the sight of a smile coming from me...
-laughs-
_JUNEBUG> I have been told I am
becoming more maternal with age.
ROXANN2072> best luck
SOBBIE> kids are easy .... when
they scream toss em back to mom
HARPER_KELS> speaking of which: it would
be too inappropriate to ask you about that, right? your age, i
mean...-g-
_JUNEBUG> My age? Absolutely not. I'm
22.
HARPER_KELS> 22?! omg! wow...
ROXANN2072>
huh!!!???
ROXANN2072> no way!
_JUNEBUG> No way?
-laughs- HOw old did you expect?
HARPER_KELS> um...older...at least
a bit...-g-
ROXANN2072> uh yeah older
_JUNEBUG>
Sobbie: Exactly what I mean - I'm fine with kids as long as they're not
mine!
ARABIAN66> how many years left to finish medical school?
HARPER_KELS> 22?! and probably you're cute as well...-g-
SOBBIE>
lol
_JUNEBUG> Well, I've been told that I am an "old
soul" by a clairvoyant I met along my travels once...
_JUNEBUG> Arabian: I have two years to go before I greaduate.
IT's a 6 year undergraduate course here.
ARABIAN66> are you going
to pst youe picture on your site?
ROXANN2072> yeah that's
it
ARABIAN66> post
ARABIAN66> it is 7 here
_JUNEBUG> Harper: Why, you charmer you. -blushes- Now I'm more
tempted to keep my picture off the net - I like this aura of mystique!
-laughs-
HARPER_KELS> -rofl-
ARABIAN66> lol
SOBBIE>
lol
ARABIAN66> come on
_JUNEBUG> If you look
hard enough the title page (index.html) is me, really close
up
ARABIAN66> i love that picture i was going to ask you about it
and i forgot
_JUNEBUG> Are you medically inclined,
Arabian?
ARABIAN66> i know alot about it yes
_JUNEBUG> That picture was a result of playing with my sister's
digital camera. Too close.
ARABIAN66> it is realy cool
_JUNEBUG> I was trying to clean the lens.
-laughs-
ARABIAN66> so again when are you going to post ypor
picture:-))
ROXANN2072> what Arabian66 said when
_JUNEBUG> Just as a question (and no ulterior message here,
purely for interest) are any of you fearful of your anonymity on the
net?
ARABIAN66> what is anonymity?
HARPER_KELS> nope
_JUNEBUG> I don't mind so much - in fact there are already
pictures of me on the net if you know where to look, but I am curious to hear
what you think, assuming you are active net people.
SOBBIE> no
cause I'm anonymous off the net too
ARABIAN66> i were a vail so that is
the answer lol
ROXANN2072> I guess if it happens it
happens
HARPER_KELS> i'm not but then again i don't write and there should
be no crazed fans or whatsoever after me...
_JUNEBUG>
That is true. Well, I'll see what I can do. Surely I have met some of you at one
of the previous two cons at CA?
ARABIAN66> i think most of the fans
are in diferent countreys
ROXANN2072> but I usually find a dark corner
anywhere I go and lurk for the most part
_JUNEBUG>
-laughs- Arabian - that is probably the way to go! Perhaps if I post up a
picture of myself with a veil on...
HARPER_KELS> nope, didn't meet
me anywhere...i don't even live in the US! lol but then again, anybody could say
so...right? lol
ARABIAN66> lol
SOBBIE> lol
ARABIAN66> you can
borrow mine
_JUNEBUG> Hey - I guess none of you are as
crazy as me, flying across the pond just for a con!
HARPER_KELS> i
would do so if i had the money...-g-
ROXANN2072> if I had the money watch
out
_JUNEBUG> Well, as of now I am completely broke.
-smiles- I am almost dying over missing out on Pasadena next
year!
ROXANN2072> so am I so am I
ARABIAN66> so is it very
early to ask if there will be a sequel to the night and day
_JUNEBUG> Roxann: Well, promise me you'll come out of the
corner the next con you go to! It is too much fun to sit out of. Though I must
say, the people watching can be *very* rewarding!
ROXANN2072> i'll
try
_JUNEBUG> Sequel? -laughs- My beta reader asks
me the same thing. You know, I was going to stop the writng at page 10 (after
the beach scene) and start up a new story from there. 'cos that was a sort of a
good cut off point at the relationship where it moved to a higher level, if you
know what I mean.
ROXANN2072> Very glad you kept on writing
this one - dying for more
ARABIAN66> don't say stop please
_JUNEBUG> As for the answer to your question... it depends
on how well I resolve the issues raised in the story. I usually like to tie up
all my loose ends, so sequels don't look like a part of my repetiore. I hope for
a satisfying ending!
ARABIAN66> hope for a satisfying open
ending
ROXANN2072> open ending sounds good to me
HARPER_KELS> happy
ending sounds best to me...-g-
_JUNEBUG> Ah - so a bit
of everything, huh? -laughs-
ARABIAN66> happy and open lol
_JUNEBUG> I can't think of anything other than a happy ending
for Kai and Piersen. They both deserve it too much
ROXANN2072>
yep
ROXANN2072> on both counts
ARABIAN66> we deserve it lol
_JUNEBUG> Well, I'll see. There is a fine line between a sequal
and dragging it out, thoug.
ROXANN2072> true but...
_JUNEBUG> -laughs- You sure do. And hope you enjoy it when it
finally comes!
ARABIAN66> i am sure i will i realy love this
story
SOBBIE> but endings are never good
SOBBIE> stories should
never end
_JUNEBUG> You think endings are never good?
Not even a satisfying, heart-warming, warm-fuzzy one?
HARPER_KELS>
folks, i'm sorry but i have to go and get some sleep it's past 4am here and i
hardly manage to stay awake
_JUNEBUG> ie the
proverbial riding off into the sunset?
ROXANN2072> I don't like
endings to stories that have me getting almost if not invoved with the
characters
_JUNEBUG> Harper - thanks so much for
turning up! It was fun. Take care.
ARABIAN66> when you love the
caracters that much it is hard to think that you wont read about them any
more
ROXANN2072> good nte harper
HARPER_KELS> it was very nice
talking to you all, junebug, thanks a million for your stories! they really warm
my heart! -s-
ROXANN2072> night
ARABIAN66> bye
harpper
HARPER_KELS> enjoy your stay and good-night to all of you!
-s-
_JUNEBUG> Thanks harper.
Goodnight
SOBBIE> even warm fuzzy endings are endings
_JUNEBUG> So you think.. after I finish off the story, I should
post up an update every six months or so, keeping up with what they are up to?
-laughs- Like the Christmas card from relatives you never see, but inevitably
hear from
SOBBIE> lol
ARABIAN66> :-))
ROXANN2072>
yes!!!
_JUNEBUG> I can see it - six months on Kai gets
chucked out of hospital for indecent behaviour within her office concerning a
certain mysterious blonde. -con't
SOBBIE> how about a 20 pg story
every 6 months
ARABIAN66> just 20 lol
_JUNEBUG>
"But, Guv'nor - she was a patient... she was feeling a burning sensation right
up her..."
SOBBIE> lol
_JUNEBUG> "Tell it
to the judge, Jamieson."
_JUNEBUG> I wonder
if Piersen will soften Kai's attitude at
hospital.
ARABIAN66> you wonder lol
_JUNEBUG> It sounds like a good idea, actually. I might do
that, when the story finished. In which case, the story will never quite
finish... what's this about purgatory, huh? -laughs-
_JUNEBUG> Oh come on - if you guys have stuck with the story
through 13 parts surely you have some ideas of your own...
SOBBIE>
lol
ARABIAN66> no i meant how can you wounder you should
know
SOBBIE> yeah but i just read them..... endlessly..... i have no
creativity
ROXANN2072> maybe
_JUNEBUG> Hey,
I'm writing it as I see it!
SOBBIE> turn on the light
ARABIAN66> sorry i writ
english with an arabic way sometime
_JUNEBUG> I
quite like bitchy Kai, though. There's something about it that really gets me
going.
ROXANN2072> but that requires use of the ol' brain -- I
don't know
ARABIAN66> me to
_JUNEBUG> I would
lvoe to learn Arabic - the script is so beautiful.
ARABIAN66> i
like them when they fight
ROXANN2072> I dated someone but he
didn
ARABIAN66> i can teach you lol
_JUNEBUG>
WEll, with Euan coming back into the picture I suspect Kai will be able to roll
her sleeves up once more!
ROXANN2072> t chose to share the
language though I asked many times
_JUNEBUG> Hey, if
you're offering to teach I'm eager to learn. -smiles-
SOBBIE>
eeeeeeewwwww Euan
_JUNEBUG> Isn't that a terrific
name?
SOBBIE> only if i could
pronounce it
ROXANN2072> I hit a brick wall when I read his name at the
end of the last chapter
ARABIAN66> any time june bug
ROXANN2072> so
unexpected
_JUNEBUG> Euan - like Ewan macgregor, the
guy in Star Wars Episode one.
SOBBIE> k
ARABIAN66> i kind
of expected it
_JUNEBUG> It was - then again, I
can only hope to write cliffhangers like some ofhte fanfic writers out there. I
remember what it was like being left on the
edge...
ARABIAN66> i was woundering when he is going to show
up
_JUNEBUG> I didn't create his character for
nothing, you know! There is order and purpose to everything in *my* universe,
thank you very much. -G-
SOBBIE> eeeeewwwww cliffhangers.....
and then not update for months
_JUNEBUG> I am
working on page 14 as we speak.
ROXANN2072> love cliffhangers
but I can hang comfortablely for only so long
SOBBIE> thank you
_JUNEBUG> I'm sorry to be a party pooper, maties, but I might
have to sign off in a few minutes.
ARABIAN66> i have a feeling that
he will make trouble for her K I MEAN
ROXANN2072> then it becoms something
else
SOBBIE> thank you so much for joining us junebug
_JUNEBUG> Euan is very bitter over Kai's refusal - he gave
her his trust and confidence, but she never accepted (in his eyes)_. That to him
was a betrayal.
ARABIAN66> did i say hgow much i loved the
story lol
_JUNEBUG> It was a pleasure. If there is
anything left unanswers for anyone feel free to email
me
ROXANN2072> thanks Junebug --- oh no betrayl cliff here I

more

absolute riot, for a first-time chatroomer and all! Thanks again, and take
