Hi! ^_^

[▒▓ Meghan ▓▒, Owner]

Hey Johannah! OMG We never talk! :O

[johanna (jo)]

True that! We should talk more :P How've you been?

[Mya, Co-owner]

WHAT'S WRONG WITH US! We don't even comment here! ;() This needs to change, change I tell you, change!

[Mya, Co-owner]

Hello! Johanna and Leyah! How are you girls today?

[johanna (jo)]

*meep*

I'm fantastic. Just got back from 10 days away . . .

Okay, I'm sort of anticlimactic. And I'm sorely missing at least ten people. And I'm tired.

But, my life, it's 2014. o.o

[Mya, Co-owner]

Yep. It is, 2013 just seem to flew by. Oh, happy new year, by the way. :D I'm excited for 2014, how about you?

[johanna (jo)]

Me, too! It's a fresh start. :)

[Mya, Co-owner]

I know right! I have so much stuff that I need do this year, that I didn't did last year. :D

[Mya, Co-owner]

Okay, so here's the deal. I need creative songs and stories to get me inspired to write a story for this writing contest I'm entering, I really, desperately want to win! Problem: Deadline is just around the corner, so very close! But I don't have even the slightest idea for a story, and I have not even wrote down a single word, so I need songs and short stories to help me out. Get me inspired, any suggestions?

Kate Rusby- The Old Man
There was an old man who lived in a wood
As you can plainly see
He said he could do as much work in a day
As his wife could do in three

With all my heart the woman she said
If that's what you will allow
Tomorrow you'll stay at home in my stead
And I go drive the plough

But you must milk our Tidy the cow
For fear she will go dry
You must feed the littlest pigs
That are within the sty
And you must mind the speckled hen
For fear she'll lay away
And then you must reel the spool of yarn
That I spun yesterday

The woman she took up her staff in her hand
And she went to drive the plough
The old man took up a pale in his hand
And he went to milk the cow
But Tidy hinched and Tidy flinched
And Tidy broke his nose
And Tidy she gave to him such a big blow
The poor man took to his toes

Hi Tidy home Tidy
Tidy thou stand still
If ever I'm ill be tidy again,
Be sore against my will
He went to feed the little pigs
That were within the sty
He hit his big head upon a thick beam
And he made his red blood fly

He went to find the speckledy hen
For fear she'd lay astray
Forgot to reel the spool of yarn
His wife spun yesterday
He swore by the sun, the moon, the stars,
The green leaves on the tree
If his wife didn't do a days work in her life
She won't be ruled by he

There was an old man who lived in a wood
As you can plainly see
He said he could do as much work in a day
As his wife could do in three

With all my heart the woman she said
If that's what you will allow
Tomorrow you'll stay at home in my stead
And I go drive the plough

Her Album "Akward Annie" is great, very folklorish!

[Mya, Co-owner]

Wow O.O That's so amazing! I thought I was reading poetry then you said it was an album, I was stunned! Oh, thank you, thank you very much ;D Can't wait to listen to it!

[johanna (jo)]

Hullo. ^_^

[Mya, Co-owner]

Hi! My dear friend, Johanna. How have you been? ;D

[johanna (jo)]

(I have to go to church in a minute)
Fantastic, thank you. :D And yourself?

[Mya, Co-owner]

(Oh, okay.)

Wonderful, thanks for asking. What have you been up to? (You can continue the conversation when you have the time, if you would like?)

[johanna (jo)]

(Back, hai)

Excellent:D Ah, not masses . . . bit o' schoolwork, bit o' procrastinating, piano, Doctor Who, internetting. :D Went to a birthday party yesterday; that was fun. You?

[Mya, Co-owner]

(Hi)
XD lol that's cool, i'm glade you had fun at a party!

Hmph, some reading, trying to delay homework, internetting, too, and unfortunately no creative writing at all! I'm my own worse enemy. . . -.- Yeah, so, what you're doing now, Johanna?

[johanna (jo)]

Oh, yeah, I need to do some writing, too. :P I've been procrastinating a lot.
Well, at the moment we have some people over for lunch (so I'll be on and off), and I'm just surfing the internet and watching clips from Broadchurch to see if I want to watch it. You/

[Mya, Co-owner]

Oh, good, I'm not alone!
That's . . . Neat (I was trying to figure out a different adjective then "cool")
Listening to music, trying to get inspired to write. I have a writing idea, but don't feel like writing it down. . .

[johanna (jo)]

Ehehehe.
Ooh, what's the idea about?

[Mya, Co-owner]

Well, I was reading this book and this guy ends up to be afraid of stepping outside his house. So I came up with own personal, but very tragic and completely different, version of that story. My version is about a very wealthy, kind girl who is afraid of stepping outside her house; she has a very odd family, and a very sad backstory about why she's afraid of stepping out of the house. There's also a boy, a boy who is a jerk, but the girl changes him. She changes the boy's whole perspective of how to live. It will be a two POVs story. And I don't know all the details yet. . .

[johanna (jo)]

That sounds awesome! :D Good luck! :)

[Mya, Co-owner]

Awe, thanks! Anyway, what have you been reading recently?

[johanna (jo)]

Been listening to some Doctor Who audiobooks; other than that not much. :) Some books on screenwriting.

[Mya, Co-owner]

Fantastic! You want to be a screenwriter now?!

[johanna (jo)]

Yeah! :D Dunno how that'll go, but I'd love to write films and TV. :)

[Mya, Co-owner]

That's awesome, you'll probably be AMAZING! Like the Doctor Who screenplay writer or some other amazing screenplay writer that I'm not thinking of!

[johanna (jo)]

Hehe. Thanks. :D I'll need to finish a couple of scripts first, though, which means some serious writing xD

[Mya, Co-owner]

XD you'll be wonderful my friend, even if it's hard, you'll be wonderful!

Okay.

[Jaylen]

Hi. I'm new to this group and this app and I have a question. Don't laugh, but, how do you open a book on this app? It's really confusing.

[johanna (jo)]

Just to clarify -- what do you mean by 'open a book'?

[Jaylen]

How to start reading it.

[johanna (jo)]

Ah. :) I don't have the app, but Goodreads is a site for recommending books to and connecting with other book lovers. :) You can't generally actually read books here.
