Member Made of Win, August! on August 20, 2013, 04:44:58 PM Member Made of Win, August!Congrats, Ames!Member Board"There's never a dull moment with the wonderful Ames. Not only a talented writer who enjoys discussing the morality and far-reaching impacts of plots, she has an uncanny knack of integrating her characters as long established family members, friends and colleagues of any other writer on the board which absolutely rocks my socks. So incredibly overdue. I'm proud to write with her, and catch each other when we can.""Talented, sensible and enthusiastic, Ames is most certainly a Member Made of Win! Having either of the Delacroix in a thread is sure to brighten or heat up things. Maurice and his thought process are an absolute blast to read, while Gabrielle is sure to make you straighten your posture in your seat. And let's not forget Malcom, who reminds us all of the little things that make us happy and that all humans make mistakes. Out of character, Ames is an absolute darling and one of the nicest people I've had the pleasure of meeting. If you've not yet had the chance to interact with Ames and her characters, you should rectify the situation as soon as possible!"A Few Recent ThreadsMaurice in That's Live and Let LiveAdelia in C'est Une Fleur de Paris!Gabrielle in Pride Comes Before the LionCharactersGabrielle MurrayAdelia DelacroixMalcolm BlakeMoaning MyrtleRufus DelacroixMaurice HolmesThoughts and ImpressionsMinerva smiled at the younger witch and accepted the cup of tea. Gabie was a fine witch, one that knew the importance of tea and all the mandates of politeness. She was truly glad that the Department Head still held her in high enough esteem to speak candidly and personally to her, unlike the stiff small talk that abounded the ministry personnel. She had taught hundreds of thousands of students throughout her tenure at Hogwarts, but very few of those relationships blossomed into anything more than teacher and pupil. She was simply thankful that Gabrielle and she had moved past that stage. […] Not only was Gabrielle a friend, she was also an extremely competent witch and a superb leader.~Minerva mcGonagall (On Gabrielle Murray)At some point in the time Gabrielle was absent in the courtrooms, two of Johann's colleagues went to her office door, seeking her with exasperation. He'd shaken his head and uttered her location before watching them stalk off, flailing arms and pulling hair. Ms Murray was ever in demand, when she went on her mysterious sabbaticals every now and then they coped, but when she was back her calm hand on the tiller, and her advice were valued by her staff. ~Johann Storm (On Gabrielle Murray)There was no denying, however, that the man before her was skillful. Had they been meeting in differing circumstances, Jacqueline would have probably quite admired the man’s diplomatic skill. As it was, it annoyed her to no end, causing the harsh French woman to shake her head and purse her lips tightly. ~Jacqueline Lumpkin (On Maurice Holmes)Turning his attention to the figure behind the counter, Johann consulted quickly with Addie over choices of food and drink, there being some particularly startling confectionery on display. Clearly someone here had an eye for detail and design in foods, so the two picked out items like two family members, pointing at items, leaning in front of each other and unafraid to lay a hand on the other's arm or poke fun at choices. It was as if they'd never been apart for months, everything was as good humoured as the moment Addie had pulled Johann through the gates on the Tube when he'd got stuck on their way to the Tate Modern. ~Johann Storm (On Adelia Delacroix) Skip to next post Re: Member Made of Win, August! Reply #1 on August 20, 2013, 04:57:47 PM Yeeeey! Ames! Love writing with you my darling. Your characters make up a significant part of many of my character's lives quite naturally. You've wheedled your way into their hearts and mine. Enjoy your moment of fame, well deserved Skip to next post Re: Member Made of Win, August! Reply #2 on August 20, 2013, 06:24:49 PM Ames you have been like the nicest person here and I can't thank you enough for always being such a bright happy little spot of sunshine. We share the same love of silver screened hunks and our deep love of curly haired floppy men (or was it froppy?) Looking at you Francis Pepper I love how positive you always are and how willing you are to dive head first into any plot. I'm sorry I fail at connecting with you on AIM most of the time, but I sure do love your updates on other things! Couldn't think of anyone else who deserves August more, AND I look forward to MANY more happy times to come!<3 Skip to next post Re: Member Made of Win, August!
