So, as you said Hamlette, most inspiring. :)Éowynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11740991607580029470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2008803196079197549.post-7898945561431376452015-01-24T16:06:56.359-06:002015-01-24T16:06:56.359-06:00Natalie,

I'm so excited about your western story! <i>And</i> your Princess and the Pea. ;) And that's quite all right. Writing a story is an involved process however it comes about---and you just have to figure out what works best for you particularly at any given time. ;) Right now I have various word documents floating around and several packed notebooks here and there (though, actually, I keep the current one in my purse :))....Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17418854988524303306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2008803196079197549.post-84997501882899066492015-01-24T13:49:21.309-06:002015-01-24T13:49:21.309-06:00I know!

So interesting! Especially if the meaning of the name matched the person's personality!<br />Thanks! I haven't even started the story yet-it's still in the idea/plot-forming stage- but you'll definitely be one of the first I share it with! I want to share some of my Princess and the Pea story with you, but none of it is in word document form yet haha. Right now I do all my writing in notebooks and then (if I reach the end) transfer it to the computer as I edit it....maybe it's not the best method but since I have yet to even finish a story, it works for now. :)Nataliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00315660089925645214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2008803196079197549.post-57883968311193016322015-01-23T15:30:06.264-06:002015-01-23T15:30:06.264-06:00Natalie,

(Maybe I'll have to do a post listing some of those one of these days. Hmmmm. You're giving me ideas..... ;)) And I can't wait to hear more about your new western story (as you feel like sharing)!!Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17418854988524303306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2008803196079197549.post-4176729922355455942015-01-22T17:02:58.349-06:002015-01-22T17:02:58.349-06:00Squee!!

I LOVE name lists (when I was younger I actually made a "name book" with all the names I and my friends and family could possibly think of) and the fact that it's historical and all that makes it even better. Thanks so much, Heidi! I'm sure I'll be using this soon! Actually I was trying to think of names just the other day for a western story!
