Open Window
Submitted September 4, 2009 Updated August 10, 2010 Status Incomplete | Um, just a little something I was working on that isn''t a fanfiction. I''m writing a story about a young teenager who hears a life-changing conversation from his new neighbors'' window. That''s the best I can describe it, but I suck a story descriptions.

Ohohohoooo :Dmippingirl on March 26, 2010, 1:53:28 PM
Whole thing done, whew! Finally I stopped procrastinating and fixed the last part up a bit so I could post it! It's a really weird chapter; jeez, now that I think about it, all of my latest chapters for my stories have been weird. Oh well!kaitlin_mckitrick on January 10, 2010, 12:24:45 PM
Awww, no Butter, :(mippingirl on January 13, 2010, 10:54:07 AM
I know, it's sad. :( He might come back later tho, IDK.

Just a little snippet, I haven't finished the whole thing yet. I found this interesting (when I planned the chapter, I had no idea that it would be like this), so I decided to see what anyone else reading it thinks.liggybird on December 19, 2009, 9:21:24 PM
I've only read your opening chapter so far mippingirl but I'm very impressed by this. The dialogue comes across as totally natural and the characters are interesting and easily distinguishable. Your writing is of a very high standard indeed. Good work!mippingirl on December 21, 2009, 2:44:43 AM
Thank you so much! I guess I just practice a lot. :) I hope you like the rest of the story!
kaitlin_mckitrick on December 18, 2009, 11:33:31 AM
XD Butter. Reminds me of Butters, rofl. On another note, very touching chapter right here.mippingirl on December 19, 2009, 9:56:27 AM
Awwww thank you! It sort of ended up that way, I didn't try to make it so but it did and I liked it. So I kept it. :)mippingirl on November 27, 2009, 6:59:38 AM
The story behind the names: Leo is the name of one of my great grandpas, the one that died a while back. I have always liked that name, so I used it. It has nothing to do with the Leo in Rune Factory!
Leanne: I'd alredy come up with Leo, and they're twins, so her name had to start with an L too. Just because. And Leanne was the best one I could think of, because not only did it start with an L, it started with and Le.
Telsa: Telsa just came out of the blue. I really don't know how I thought it up. I just put in the name Telsa, thought "Hey, that's cool!" and kept it.
Rob: Rob was also kind of out of the blue, but I didn't really want it to be short for Robert so I kept it at Rob.
Alex: Once again, something that just came to me. It's subject to change at any time.
Jennie(Leo and Leanne's mom): Same as Alex, really.
Howard: (He's coming into the story veeery shortly, but up until now I've only mentioned him once.) My dad likes the name Howard a lot. He originally wanted Oliver to be named Howard, but mom won that battle. So just because he loves the name Howard and has never gotten to have a child or pet named that, I gave one of my characters that name.
Brian: For some odd reason, when I think up names for people closely connected to my main character(s) in any story, the name Brian always pops up. So I decided, fine, I'll use it. Even though my cousin has the same name, and I'm not the biggest fan of my cousin. He's not bad, persay, I just think that all of my cousins are crazy. Especially the guys. And almost all of them are guys.
kaitlin_mckitrick on December 18, 2009, 11:26:18 AM
My cousins are crazy too! XDmippingirl on December 19, 2009, 9:55:24 AM
Yes, cousins do that.mippingirl on November 27, 2009, 7:00:57 AM
