Oh that subject, I'm currently rereading Daylighters by Rachel Caine and trying out the Game of Love and Death, which is pretty good from the little bit I've read so far. You?
Write, Sapphire!

That's the series Myrnin's in, right? Ooh, I'd never heard of the other one, but it looks interesting! Are you still enjoying it? I've mostly been rereading The Raven Boys. And several fanfics that have just updated cx I will! Life just got a bit stressful, though, so I might be longer than I hoped

Correct! It's the last book. Since I last talked to you I've gotten halfway through. And the other one is very interesting from what I've read! I looked for the Raven Boys at the library today but they didn't have it. Oh no! Hope things get better! And here's your fan art, on that note! One Holly and one Ivypaw!

Those are awesome drawings and don't deserve the length of time it took me to see them! I love the effect you did on Holly's fur! And Ivypaw's outline! Something to look out for when I'm spending my book tokens c: Oh no! Maybe it was taken out - it's quite a popular series so I'd be surprised if they didn't have it... Although sometimes libraries do strange things Getting better I joined a new band which is a serious step up from anything I've played in, and the extra rehearsals and practice take up a lot of time. Took some adjusting. (Which is my excuse for not replying earlier...)

(Excuses are excuses and I always take excuses.)

mintedstar/fur I finally put them on the front page where they belong Any luck? I've probably told you far too much about them already, but I can't recommend that series enough! Have you read any of her other books? Thanks cx (I'm glad)

It's been a while since I last read Shiver, but I remember loving it! The way the wolves were described... Also Grace/Sam is very cute.) The Raven Cycle and the Scorpio Races are probably the best to try - she wrote another series about faeries which is still good but a bit more variable. *fangirling over

Added a new poll! Your vote won't affect chapter 10 since that's already half written, but I'd like to see people's thoughts on what's next

I need to finish reading it. People keep telling me it's good. Please fan girl. We love fan girling! We fan girl all the time, come to think of it.

mintedstar/fur It is so good! Did you get very far into it? We do... I feel like I should stop calling this site 'the cat forums' and start calling it 'fangirling forums'

ᴛᴜᴇsᴅᴀʏHaha thanks! That swans rewrite is coming! I might try and use camp nano to get it finished, that or building up a buffer for this fic. Your squinting just increases his sketchiness...

About a chapter and a half. XP Accurate, honestly. We fangirl and fanboy various things. But we are all common in our fanning.

ᴛᴜᴇsᴅᴀʏWe possibly have a vicious circle on our hands mintedstar/furThen it almost certainly gets better xP The only irony is that I probably spend more time fangirling stuff other than warriors

Good to know. o3o Someone I go to book club with keeps trying to get me to read it and I want to. What have you been up to lately?
Well, true for me too. X'D But then again, I spend more time just shoving books in people's faces and saying 'here, read this, it's good' and running away.

Bring this person to me so we can fangirl about Stiefvater togather! Ahh the usual, I guess. The exciting thing is that my favourite band's come back from the dead - a new song that I like for a change and an amazing gig I was able to livestream! You?
I'm just imagining the scene. The unexpected-but-definitely-good-book fairy

Come join my bookclub.Oh? Which band? As for me, I've been writing this: wcrpforums.com/thread/53177/immortal-rules-writings-random-order on the bus to school, working on a scholarship (sweats), and studying for a hard test (sweats further). Ehhh, I'm doing okay. Heh, heh. Yup. I just return the favor. XD

Please! Maybe you can Skype me in?Muse (I've probably mentioned them before...) Motivated as always Ah I can see I have some writing to catch up on. Good luck with the scholarship and the test!!

Heh heh. XD We probably could. A lot of use read the types of books I know you like.No, I can't remember you mentioning them. What sort of music do they play/sing/other? I've almost finished the scholarship and I've finished the test. It's interesting reading letters of recommendation. o.o Never read any before. And I think I did okay on the test!

Ditch Skype then, can I just fly over? Now that's the difficult question. Their old stuff was rock/classical, their newer songs have more pop and electronic elements, but they change genre like every album so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Most people know them as "that band that sings about aliens"... How about your favourite artist(s)? Congrats! Letters of recommendation are pretty scary o.o I'm glad you did well!

Post by mintedstar/fur on Mar 8, 2018 11:32:14 GMT -5
Yes. Come over and fangirl for us!
Tough question, that. I have favorite songs more than favorite artist(s). But if I remember the name of the artist, I usually like them. There's Lord Huron, Bea Miller, Beth Crowley, Daughtry, and Lauren Aquilina. So apparently I like female artists. XD
Yup! Got it all in. Now I'm working on juggling two classes that decided to give me everything at once. @.@ I better not have to do the midterm for one before Spring break.

mintedstar/fur Buying plane tickets now...Hmm, I've not heard of any of those... Genres? You're the opposite of me, then - I tend to have favourite artists and listen largely to male singers (which isn't intentional, just what seems to happen) Argh, that doesn't sound nice either! Why does school never know when to give you a break? ᴛᴜᴇsᴅᴀʏAh, problems... Also (@anyone who's still checking this page) chapter 10 is almost done (for real, this time)! Just a few edits...

~Sapphire~I keep forgetting to bump up our PM. Fly over here! Those are the names of artists. Singers, if you would. Genres? I like all genres. Maybe a bit more pop and rock, but that's just because it's more available. I don't know? I just semi-recovered from two nights straight of only 6 hours of sleep. And woooh! Yay new chapter!
