Hey :) Just thought i'd drop by and give you a list of things that need to be updated on the "Season One" page.
You need more numbers onto character appearences.
You need to create banners for the last two episodes, and add them to the page, and the seperate episode pages.
You need to add the plot summaries for "Almost There", "We're Here!", "Christmas Time Is Here", "Promalicious", and "If We Ever Meet Again", onto the page and they're seperate episode pages.Loading editor

Hey Jack! Thanks for letting me know. I'll try and get those things done real soon. There's still a lot to be done on the wiki, but eventually everything will be done and up to date. The biggest issues are character biographies, and song lyrics on the song pages. At least both are pretty straightforward and once I'm done, I can move on.
Also, thanks for adding the songs onto the Season One page for the last two eps. :)Loading editor
Hey :) No problem, i just thought it'd be best i told you as you sort of know more of what needs to be updated.
Your welcome :) P.S. I was thinking instead of saying "Full episode", i think it'd be better for it to be "Everything's Changing (Script)". Just a suggestion and probably, just my personal preference.
I also hope you don't mind, but i'm thinking Prim might be on The Unitards prior to the auditions, but that'd mean she wouldn't have an audition song, so i hope you're ok with that :)Loading editor
Yeah, that's true.
I'm not sure. I kind of thought that "Full Episode" wasn't the best thing to put in the brackets, but I can't really think of anything better. I might use "Script" instead, I'll just have to have a think in case there's something else that sounds good. :)
Sure, of course that's ok with me. I'm astounded she got accepted to begin with. :PLoading editor
Yeah, just think about it.
Thanks for understanding. She was such a good audition and though i accepted, i didn't have much of a storyline for her...just little things planned for her...but actually, now i've made her join the Unitards prior to auditions, i've got this amazing and big storyline planned for her...so it works for the better, i guess. :)
P.S. When will the next ep be out?Loading editor
Sounds great, I'm really excited for the new fic! :) I just feel it's going to be amazing already. And honestly, I don't really care how big her storyline is, as long as she doesn't become Tina. :P
Hopefully the 20th of Nov. :)Loading editor
I'm really excited for the new fic too..but i just wish i could get my words out.
Lol. She'll definetley not become Tina. The plan is for the importance of characters, whether regular or recurring, to alternate each episode...so you get a look in at each character. :)
Wow. That's far away.Loading editor
Yeah, I always find I have great ideas, but writing it down is the hardest part.
That's great! That sounds like a really good plan, I'm trying something similar with season two of my fic, to focus on particular characters each episode and alternate.
Well, it's only about a month, but I know what you mean. :PLoading editor

Hiya, Jordan! Just dropping by to let you know the first episode of my fanfic has just aired. You can check it out here :)(:Loading editor
WOW, that was an amazing episode! Commented on the blog post, so if you want to see a more detailed opinion my comment is there. You have a heap of talent, Narise!! :) Loved itLoading editor

Hey Jack! Sorry, I will reply to your other messages in a moment. I tend to read messages and tell myself I will reply later, but forget.
No, the picture is not of me. I look younger than the guy in my pic, and I have brown hair. The the person on the right is Joey Graceffa, who is an American youtuber who makes some really funny videos, does song covers and remix video clips, he also does gaming videos and daily vlogging (blogging but in video form each day). Also, he's about to make a web-series called Storytellers, which sounds like mystery type genre episodes. The girl on the left is one of his friends Whitney. He's kind of a celebrity and obvs I've never met him before. He has tonnes of videos, he's been vlogging for a while. He was also on the Amazing Race and came 5th (i think, i didn't actually watch it) he's got a 'draw my life' video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjnBPSBmVIo
Sorry for the long message there, didn't realize I went on forever, I just think he's really inspirational to see him overcome so much in his life and now be in the position he is.
Btw, i had to delay the posting of the new ep because I've had heaps of homework and I never got to finish part 2 of ep 1, which was what I was aiming for. Also, I've been designing the slushie song covers, doing planning for stories/character intros this season, and also doing the episode banner things.It will definitely be posted this weekend, and I mean it this timeLoading editor
Hey :)
Oh, i was just wondering if it was you but i did think, it would be out of character for you :) Oooh, i'll have to check out his vids sometimes.
It's ok.
I'd personally wait. If you've not finish part 2 of ep 1, that must mean your behind on ep 2 or 3...so why don't you wait till you've got them sorted. I'm just suggesting.
Yikes, i'm so nervous. It's my college induction/ enrollment on Thurs.Loading editor
Yeah, the only place I've posted my pics is on Instagram but I'm on private and I only let people I know follow me to view my pics. If you have it, you can follow me. My username is jtg123omg , although I'm not sure if you do have it. :P
Yeah, i'm almost done part 2, once that's done i will post part 1. And I will definitely have part 2 done sometime this weekend.
Btw, i have end of term holidays for two weeks, in four weeks, so i can get even further ahead these holidays. I would have done work for the fic last holidays, but obvsiously I was in Singapore and Malaysia.
Aww, good luck, hope all goes well. Will be thinking of you :)Loading editor
No, i don't have Instagram..or Twitter. I'm not really into those things. I mean i have a Facebook but that's only used for family things, and it's private anyway :)
Cool :) I'm gonna hopefully begin at least writing some of Ep 1 this weekend. You know, how Glee in Season 1 released the Pilot in May and then released 12 eps in September. That's kind of going to be my way too.
I've done it and it wasn't as bad as i thought. I was so nervous but when i woke up today, the feeling had gone..but there was SO MANY people but i got talking to some new people so least i talked to someone :)Loading editor
Ok, I understand, fine by me. I'm not really into those things that much either, I prefer my life to be kept a bit more private as well.
Sounds great. So, if you're having a break after the pilot ep, how long do you think it will be? Sorry for asking so early on, I know you probably haven't planned an exact timeline yet, I'm just curious. :P
That's good, that you've got talking to some people and that you're not feeling as nervous anymore about it.
I feel really bad that I generally take forever to reply to your messages, I'm just always so busy. Thank God term three holidays are coming up in three weeks for me! It'll give me some time to catch up on my writing even more and plan more for the end of the season, because honestly, not too much is planned for arc three, but I suppose as the story continues, more ideas will stem from previous stories.
Btw, episode 1, part 1 is going to be released tomorrow. I have finally finished part 2 (except for the final editing but I like to do that right before I post the ep so that what's happening in the ep is clear in my mind for when I post). I'm doing the final edit on part 1 right now. :)Loading editor
I've not planned an exact timeline as nothing's written yet, but the break will be about 3-4 months. The episode amount is 13 episodes (and it'll stay 13) so in this break, i'll be able to get about half of that set done :)
One of them reminds me of Devonne. I can tell, she'll inspire Siobhan :) *Hope that doesn't sound creepy(
You should feel bad, hahaha, i'm just kidding. That'll be good. Don't stress about Arc 3, when you've not even done Arc 1. :)
Yay, that sounds great. Hope it's official but i may be able to read it, and leave a short comment...but i'll leave a full comment later on, if that's ok.Loading editor
And as of Episode One, i know the songs, i know the basics but to put it together is what i've got to do now :) But i'm gonna take it slow, as i want it to be perfect but it'll be out this year, so don't worry. :)Loading editor
I didn't think you would have had a full timeline yet. 13 sounds good amount of episodes, as 22 episodes can really drag out (btw, season three of my fic is definitely not going to be 22 episodes, I'm thinking maximum 15 episodes)
I don't see how that's creepy at all. That's great that you're inspired by other characters.
Yeah, I'm not really stressing about Arc 3... just yet. :P I'm thinking Arc 1 (episodes 1-8) will be about dealing with the stories from the previous season, as well as introducing in a few new characters and stories that then lead into Arc 2 (which is eps 9-14). This arc will introduce a few valuable new characters too, and it will be quite dramatic. Arc 3 (being 15-22), deals with sorting out the dramatic storyline, but mostly with the graduate's stories and how they deal with making something of their futures.
Sounds great. It'll definitely be up this week (hopefully tomorrow, but if not, then this week sometime)Loading editor
If it does go beyond 13 episodes, which is unlikely as i like the idea of 13 episodes as it's good amount, like you say, it'd probably be 16 episodes maximum.
I feel like College will drum up some inspiration for the fic :)
That all sounds good to me. Is there going to be a Senior ditch day and another Prom? :)Loading editor
That's good. I mean, honestly, either way, I will still read no matter how many exact episodes there are, but I think 13 is around about a good number for a season.
Yes, things like college will always create ideas.
Well, there is definitely a prom ep, and I'm hoping for a senior ditch day. However, neither are intended to be major stories. I'm probably including both but I think the centre of the story will always rest otherwise.Loading editor
But i will say, they will be long episodes so i don't want complaints about the lenght. Obviously, if it's 13 episodes, they'll be longer than the usual :)
I'm excited. I start properly tomorrow :)
Cool :) I'm excited.Loading editor
Hehe. Sorry for complaining last season, I guess I just wasn't expecting them to be so long at first.
Yeah, that makes sense to me, and I'd prefer a super long episode over a tiny, small episode with no development whatsoever. :)Loading editor
It's okay. But it just got a little overwhelming because people didn't like the lenght, which made me not like the lenght, then scenes got cut :)
Well, you're gonna get a super long episode. This episode has 8 songs. But after Ep 2, there will be fewer songs :)
P.S. Done my first week at College. I kind of like it, it was good when we got into the stuff at the end of the week...though i don't like some people on my course..but oh well. But it's providing me with so much inspiration for my new fic :)Loading editor
That makes sense, hopefully people won't mention that this season. :P
8 songs? That's not too bad. The first part of ep 1 of my fic has 7 songs, part 2 has 7 as well. And yeah, I personally like a lower amount of songs, but sometimes there are so many good songs you want to use that fit the story and you want to cut any, so I know what you mean.
Sounds brilliant, I'm glad you're enjoying most of it. It sounds really fun from what you've said so far. About those people that you don't really like, well, I guess, that can kind of happen anywhere in life. The reality is that not everyone is nice and not everyone gets along. As long as you don't let them get in the way of what you're there to do, that's good. :)Loading editor
Hopefully :)
Well, all of the 8 songs are relevant to the plot so it shouldn't matter. :) That is true. Some songs i want to cover for the sake of it, but i've not really felt that this time around - really.
That's true. Never know, some of them could be really good friends, we'll see. I have no expectations of true friendships happening, so like i say, we'll see.
This weekend, i'm gonna try and start writing my fic :)Loading editor
Yeah, me too. Usually though they fit with the plot, imo.
How long does College go for? Just curious. :)
Sounds great, I'm really excited for your fic. Some of the auditions I read from the audition page were really quite good.Loading editor
Well, i'm there 3 days, every week.
Tuesday - I'm there from 10:15 to 4.30.
Wednesday - I'm there from 9.00 to 4.30
Friday - I'm there from 9.00 to 3.30
I'm glad, you're excited :) I hope it lives up to expectations.Loading editor
Honestly, I thought it'd be more than 3 days, but I suppose the hours add up in the end. How many more weeks are there?
I'm sure it will be amazing. Your writing always impresses. Btw, when will the cast list for your new fic be posted? Just curious as to whether you've decided on everyone yet.
Btw, on the topic of auditions, I think I might need to hold some for season three, as obviously there are characters that will have graduated and I will need new characters for them to interact with out in the real world. When do you think I should hold them? I'm not sure whether I should hold them halfway between this season, or right at the end? It's not a really big deal, I'm just trying to plan ahead a bit. S2 doesn't introduce too many new characters at all, only 3 new main-ish ones that have to be introduced now to fill up the spaces in S3.Loading editor
Well, it adds up to about 18 hours :) Well, there's a lot of weeks. The course ends next June :)
The cast-list will be up when the first episode is up :)
I think you should host them halfway through the season :)Loading editor
It does go for a while then.
Okay, that's great. I was just curious. :) In fact, now that you say it, I think you might have mentioned that once before somewhere.
I'll think about it, but yes, I most likely will hold them halfway through the season then. I suppose that gives me more time to plan for S3 when the time gets closer and that way I can lead up to any events that may take place with the new characters, possibly.Loading editor
Why, how long did you expect it to be :) P.S. It's not like an American College, where you stay overnight. They don't really do that here in England, apart from some places.
Yeah, i think i did.
I just think, like you say, if you do it halfway, then you've planned S3. But then again, it could also distract you, and make you wanna rush S2's end, for S3's beginning :)Loading editor
I'm not sure, for some reason, I thought it'd be every day.
Yeah, it's like that here in Australia too. None of our colleges, etc. are stay overnight programs, unless they're boarding schools (obvs.) How is the grading organized at your schools in England? In Australia, we have primary school (kindergarten to grade 6 or 7 - can depend), and then high school is years 7/8 to year 12. I'm guessing it's probably similar, as Australia is a Commonwealth and has been run similarly to England in terms of government, although, we only have a prime minister, no monarchs.
I don't think rushing the eps will be an issue. I'm kind of a perfectionist. I hate posting my eps if they aren't as good as I can make them. I know my writing isn't always brilliant, and I think that's because I kinda don't always have fully planned ideas, and sometimes I'm making things up as I go along, but honestly, I can't see myself rushing ahead being too big of an issue, because as I do like things to be the best they can be, which obviously means I take quite a while to get eps posted.Loading editor
No. It's a part-time course, apparently. But then again, i heard my art tutor say it was a full-time course but i think it's only 3 days, due to budget cuts, because i've heard it used to be more :)
I really don't know the grades for Kindergarten as i've not got my thinking cap on. But at Secondary school, you're year 7 up into year 11. :)
That is very true :) I'm really nervous about my episodes, as i really wanna start writing, but i don't wanna (if that makes sense) Because i know they're be parts which won't have any sense or i change along the way.
You know, when you have a plot planned and then you cut it, that's what i mean :)Loading editor

Hey :) I'd just like to say i loved Prim and she's accepted. I know who her friend is....Siobhan a.k.a Devonne :)Loading editor
Thank you Jack! You're so kind! That sounds great, I'm really excited for the new series. :)
Btw, ep 1 will be posted on Sunday 25th August. Sorry for the delays, when I planned the release date, I suppose I never thought my birthday would be so busy that i wouldn't have time to post it.Loading editor
You're welcome. Me too, i've not got anything written but i've got stuff planned, so..i'm good.
Ok cool :) I'm so excited. I hope you're episodes will be more spaced out though, will they?Loading editor
Loading editor
Hey :)
Since my fan-fic cancelled. If there's any questions you'd like to ask about how some things were planned to end or what might of become of a certain storyline, you can ask (it's dependent on whether i can fully answer, because some things will be used in the new fic) but go ahead anyway.
For example: How would the Walker/ Beth storyline have ended up?
My reply would be: Beth would be empowered by this, but underneath heartbroken about it. Aurora would convince her to move on to someone else, seeing as theirs's a wide range of available guys. But Beth would realise Walker's the only one for her and get back to get together with him, setting some conditions first. He would eventually get too comfortable in the relationship, and to lay on his anger about being beat up by jocks, he'd end up beating Beth, to feel in control. You'd also of learned as a kid, he use to suffer from anorexia and he was going to have a bond with Melinda, who was going to find out about what he's doing to Beth and not liking it. She'd try and make Beth see it was wrong. After a long time, she decides enough is enough and breaks up with Walker and ends up moving with her sister, Aurora to a different state where her grandparents live...they would have been happy since her mother was having a baby.
Then despite what she knows, Melinda would grow close to Walker and you'd expect them to be a couple but you'd be treated to a scene in the far future. It would be an older Walker (about 50) in bed, suffering from cancer (you'd learn it to be common in his family) and a married Beth would come to his beside and tell him that despite his actions to her in the past, he was the one who made her know what love was...because it was never a big thing for her, with any others before him. She'd kiss him and Walker would say, that he loves her and that he's sorry for abusing her, but not sorry for knowing her. He would say that he's not afraid of dying as he's a champion, he won her love. He might of not won her but he won her love :)
Then he'd died and she'd cry into his chest, and say, "You're beautiful (a call-back to his first solo to her). Then like she hadn't realized, her last words would be "You're gone"
P.S. I asked Narise a while back if i could use Winter Delgado for S2 and she said yes, so i'm using her for my new fic instead. Don't worry though, she'll be different than the Unitards counterpart :)Loading editor
- View all 6 replies
Firstly, I'm really excited to see Winter in your fic. Of course you can use her, she isn't my character after all, she is Narise's. Plus, plenty of my characters have been used in numerous fics already.
WOW. WOW. WOW. I love what you just wrote. It has such a great ending, its so well-planned and just an overall amazing idea.
I like how your fic doesn't just simply use "typical" stories. That's a really clever story that shows that not all relationships, like the ones shown on Tv and movies are all lovey-dovey, and there are some people that will abuse or bash their partner. I kind of knew there was something about Walker, ever since he kissed Spencer I knew he was a bit different.
I also like how Melinda would get involved and we'd learn he grew up with anorexia. Very well thought out and planned, they're wonderful ideas.
Also, saying "you're beautiful" is so great and it's amazing how it reminds you of his very first song to her.
Would Spencer's mother ever awake from her coma? I understand if you don't want to spoil though, because maybe you'll be saving that for the new fic. Also, would Melinda eventually overcome her anorexia, and if so, when would it be?
I'll ask some more questions if I come to think of more, but at the moment my mind is pretty empty, sorry.Loading editor
Yeah, she'll be different to your version for sure. :)
Aww, i'm so thrilled you loved the idea and i'm kinda sad it didn't come to fruition but just know, i did have things planned and it wasn't all strung out quickly, like some fan-fics.
I think the ending of them was kind of fitting for them as i feel people immediately assumed they were end-game, you know? And it was always my intention for them not to be...because i like to derail people's expectations. Because i think some people think, if you've seen the quiet sweet girl and the kind boy become an item, you've seen it everywhere. So i wanted to make it different.
Wonderful ideas. Don't pinch them :P Just kidding.
I know. If i actually write it, i'd probably cry writing it honestly. Oooh, you know what, even though PTS is cancelled, doesn't mean i can't write one- shots for things.
Yes, Spencer's mother would eventually wake up from a coma. But before this, Spencer thinking she'd never wake up, would set her dad up with the cheerleading coach Maddy Stone and he gets along with her..but doesn't like her in that way. She wants him to be with someone as she doesn't want him to be unhappy in life. But her father is really conflicted at time because he's still married to Celine and he's still got his ring, he wears it everyday and sleeps with it. And the two have discussions. But Spencer tells him how it is, that it's mostly impossible to be faithful after SO LONG. Anyway, he'd end up being attracted to Demetria, and they'd start dating...but by this time, while it would be both of their worst nigtmares, Devonne and Spencer love it because they're friends now.
Ep 7 which was coming up: was going to feature Spencer having money troubles and surprisngly, Mary Lou would urge Devonne to help her out and she does. Spencer thanks them both and in the end, Spencer and Devonne would kiss.
Yes. Melinda would overcome her anorexia eventually, like at the end of the fic as she'd still have relapses but while she was in the hospital. Out of boredom, she'd find comfort in a pad and a pen and she'd write her thoughts like it was her diary and eventually, she'd release a collection of self- help books (in the future) and she'd be happy because she not only turned herself round, her mother who was a writer herself would be proud. Had it continued, you would have saw her writing storyline and then at the last ever episode, you'd be treated to a vision in the future, showing what she'd done. She doesn't care if she's not world-wide famous but she enjoys the fact she's made a difference as she gets letter from young boys and girls, and even older people who have said her books have been a tremendous aid, in getting them back on track.Loading editor
I assumed that Walketh was endgame as well. However when Walker kissed Spencer I kind of became a bit suspicious but then I just assumed that they would get back together sometime eventually and you were simply pulling a Finchel move to make us readers mourn over their break-up.
Sounds like a really good story. I love it, but the only thing I don't get is you said that Celine would wake from her coma, but if Spencer's father was dating Demetria, what would happen after that? Would Spencer's dad simply stop dating Demetria as he still loves Celine, or would something else happen?
Also, since Spencer and Devonne would kiss, would they end up together or end up just as friends that kissed once.
I love that idea for Melinda, it seems so Melinda-y. I have a sort of similar storyline for one of the characters in The Unitards, but its only similar in the fact that one of the characters aspires to be a writer. Whether they actually make it, I'm not sure, but if they did it would take numerous more seasons to.Loading editor
When i started Walketh, i was always intended for them not to be the convential end-game.
When Celine wakes from her coma. Demetria sees Spencer's father wants to get back with Celine, but doesn't wanna break her heart...so she breaks it off herself, but he's the one person after Devonne's father, who she loved deeply. But she's just happy, she got to found some happiness, even if it has to stop.
Also. Spencer can't always see her mother as she's in NYC. But they'd have a lot of phone-call convo's.
Spencer and Devonne don't end up an item but they do have sexual relations a couple of times. There was going to be numerous episodes where Devonne flew to NYC, to help Spencer. Devonne's bi-sexual and Spencer is too. But while Devonne mainly goes with girls, Spencer does boys and girls.
Aww thanks :) Well, Melinda will be in my new fan-fic, under a new name :) So it could still happen but the whole anorexia storyline will come up differently...as i feel, i kind of threw it in too abrupt and a storyline about something big like that, doesn't deserve that kind of mistreatment.Loading editor
Well, you certaintly did a goob job at hiding that intention, that's for sure. :P
That's really sweet, and a nice little story for Demetria, Spencer and her father. Btw, does Spencer's dad have a name, and if so, what was it? I think you might have mentioned it as Anthony or Andrew or something?
That sounds really good. How would Spencer go in NY? Would she be accepted into NYADA?
I thought Spencer might have been bisexual. I'm not sure why, but a lot of the time, I pictured her as bi. Devonne is a bit of a shock, but not completely unrealistic or unworkable.
I kind of do agree a little with the fact that you threw the anorexia story in a bit early. I feel in the new fic, it'd be a little better if we got to know Melinda's character (obviously with a different name though) better before the anorexia plot pops up.Loading editor
His name's Anthony.
Yes, she would be accepted into NYADA but there'd be complications of course. I'm keeping the lid on them, as she wants NYADA in the new fic aswell.
Yeah. I agree. I think there'll be a few episodes before it happens, same with Spencer's story.
Since some characters are being recycled, some songs may be recycled aswell...but perhaps used for a different character or in a different context. What are some songs from PTS, you'd like to see in my new fic?Loading editor

Hey Jordz :) This is the official confirmation, Glee: Paint The Sky has been cancelled.
I didn't want to cancel it but i believe, it was just inconsistent. There were characters appearing who you think were going to have larger parts or some stories weren't carried over. But i do think as it went on, it got better, my writing got better, the characters had more depth. However, because it's taken me so long to get out of my writing block, to writing scenes, it's made me realise i don't want to write this because it feels like a drag...so...i'm going to begin a new Glee fan-fic.
It will be more darker and grittier, dealing with touchy subjects and there will be more male characters for sure. I just think with PTS, the moral of the story wasn't really known. But since i think i did some things in PTS well, some storylines from the fic may crop up in the new one but they'll be handled differently and things like that.
Characters like Spencer and Mary Lou may appear as i've grown quite fond of them :)Loading editor

Hey Jack :) Sorry I haven't replied to any of your messages. Obviously I was on my holiday for two weeks, and I've just been back at school for a week and for some reason they've dumped a heap of work to do as soon as I got back. :(
I am really shocked and sad to hear this, because I was really enjoying the fic, but at the same time I understand how you feel. I've thought about cancelling my fic before, because sometimes I feel like I am writing all these episodes for such a little audience. I feel like your fic was really starting to get amazing with the stories and characters, and I was becoming really fond of it, but I do understand your POV.
I'm definitely excited for the new fic though, if you do end up deciding upon creating one. Let me know when the auditions come around because I'll be sure to audition a character. Not sure if the character will be very good but nevertheless I'll give it a go ;)
I love that idea of bringing Mary Lou, etc. into the new fic. :)
Btw, I'm going to be posting a message on the wiki that notifies everyone. It will be a bit of info on when the new season will be started up again and will include some likely dates for new eps. :) I apologize for making everyone wait SOOOO long for eps, but I had promised myself I wouldn't post new eps until I was ahead of my writing.Loading editor
Hey Jordan :) That's okay, totally understandable. I've been busy as in September i'm going to college on a part-time Art course (Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday) and i went to taster days. I was so nervous and i LOVED it. I hope you enjoyed your holiday, where did you go?
I know but because it was such a long time between episodes and the current storyline was boring me tbh. But this fic will be more AMAZING, i promise.
Here's the audition link http://glee.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Jack-_gleelover/Glee:_A_New_Fan-fiction#WikiaArticleComments
To fill the cast out: I'm bringing Spencer, Arrow, Melinda, Mary Lou and Devonne to this new fan-fic, all except Arrow and Mary Lou will be under different names.
The fic will be about Carmel High and The Unitard's school merging into one big school (Yes, i understand the miles between both areas) and anyway, it's about two glee clubs trying to exist, VA and The Unitards. So Harmony and Pendleton are in it, they're seniors and they're trying to get new members but VA's lead, Frida Romero (who's transferred to Carmel High) is stomping on their feet. It's going to be really fun.
I've not planned everything yet as i want to be a bit spontaneous as i felt with my other fic, i planned to much that i got ahead of myself. But it's going to be really good...the specifics are there. What do you think?
Good idea. So excitedLoading editor
Ooh, sounds great. I hope you have fun with your art course, sounds very fun. :)
I went to Singapore first, then Malaysia (Penang). They were both great, I'd been to Penang before but I'd never been to Singapore before. We went to Singapore first because it's more like a city, and since Penang is an island and it's more relaxing, we went there last to end off refreshed.
I've seen some of the auditions and there are some great characters to pick from already! :)
Also, I commented on the blog page but in case you don't see, when do you think auditions will be closed? Just wondering, because I need a bit of time to think up a character.
Sounds great, you definitely picked the "juicy" characters that have big personalities, which I like.
I'm loving the sound of the fic so far. I like how the fic has a connection to Glee as well, with the fact that there are characters from the show in it. Sounds brilliant. ;)
I think that's a great idea. I'm trying to do the same with my fic this season as well. I feel like it is easier to kind of write with your gut feeling sometimes, rather than planning everything. Like, I've got the main gists of the season planned, but the smaller storylines in between, I'm going to just let the stories flow as I go along and not force anything.
I feel like your fan fic will be a hit already, what you have told me so far sounds really good, I'm so excited already :DLoading editor
The taster days were fun. We made rollercoasters out of cardboard and tested to see if it was good enough, for a tennis ball to travel throughout it. We did loops and all-sorts. :)
Sounds amazing. I've not really got a holiday this year but tbh, sometimes i find it kind of nice to have a break from holidays, instead of your holiday being the break. I bet i want one after my art course, as it's very time-consuming. I am going to Lapland in December for Christmas :)
Yep. There's some really good characters but some are too alike, so i'm adding Spencer, Arrow, Devonne, Mary Lou and Melinda...and even some recurring/ regular characters that were later going to be introduced to PTS. Also, it's not going to close yet...i'm aiming to write like the first scene before anything.
If you audition a character. Can you make sure the character still has parents, isn't adopted, isn't a cutter, isn't anorexic and i've had loads of gay characters being auditioned this time around, but i need a couple of straight characters. Sorry if that takes ideas from your heard but people audition with them type. If you audition with a male or female, it's fine with me.
So true. Some ideas that were going to happen in PTS will still find themselves in this fic and don't forget, characters like Spencer and Devonne will be featured, so their storylines may conclude since you never got that with the cancellation. But obviously, some things will be changed as you don't wanna repeat history.
Thanks :) I'm aiming to write a few episodes then post them in sections, like you do. I think i only got dead excited about posting an episode before because they were gettin' better + i wanted to move it along. This time, there's not going to be a wiki straight away, there's not going to page placeholders for the episode because that makes me rush :)
P.S. There will be a wiki, just not yet.Loading editor
Sorry for the late reply. I've been busy.
Sounds like you'll be having a lovely Christmas. I hate how it is so hot over here for Christmas. I'd rather our Christmas be in Winter and our Summer be in the middle of the year where we usually have winter. (Btw, i can't believe how quick the year has gone so far, only about four and a half months to go!)
Sounds really good, I like the idea of transfering the PTS characters into the new fic.That way, I won't miss them (and you've chosen the ones that I kinda liked the most as well which is great) :)
Sure, I understand. I hate it when you get a heap of similar characters auditioned and a lot of them are really good but there are just too many similar ones. In my first auditions for this fic, no one really auditioned gay characters. And those who did had made them very stereotypical for a gay character. The only reason I ever introduced Carlton was because all the characters were straight, plus, I needed a rival in VA.
I'll type my audition up today and definitely have it posted by tomorrow (if not today). I hope thats okay with you.
Awesome! I'm loving these ideas. I'm hoping that Spencer's story with her ballerina mother in a coma is continued, that was one of my favourite storylines so I'm hoping it can be re-used.
Just a question, what is the reason for not having a wiki straight away? I don't really mind and I respect whatever decisions you wanna make, I'm just a bit confused. Sorry. But that sounds like a good idea not to post upcoming episode pages. Because like you said, it can make you rush. I think this season, for my fic, the spoilers are going to be more conservative, because I think last season at some points I was giving out way too much info and I also don't want people to expect certain stories to play out in certain ways and then they don't.Loading editor
It's okay. Me too, been doing some art-work..moved into my new bedroom and been awing over how amazing Silver Linings Playbook and Perks Of Being A Wallflower is.
I know. I'd hate having a hot christmas but this one time here, it was like the ice age. I'm just happy because this year, it's guranteed i'm having a white christmas.
Is there any other character from PTS you liked? Either way, it doesn't mean i'll transfer because my cast-list is like 30 characters (regular, recurrings and guest stars) but i'd just like to know. Even though my cast-list is huge, i promise not to go off-track.
Yeah, i don't like the stereotypical gay characters.
Okay cool. :)
Yes, Spencer's story with her ballerina mother will be continued but it'll be tweaked a bit...there will be more depth, like the episode it comes up, it's going to be all about it. And it'll be pop up later than sooner as i feel i kind of brought it up too early...maybe. I just hope Spencer will be as good as she was in PTS because i think she was the one character i did consistently well with.
I just don't wan't a wiki straight away because then i'd start creating episode pages and stuff like that and i'd look at it....basically, i'd be really paranoid that people were getting more impatient if i had a wiki than if i didn't. Plus, it'll just make me feel i have to rush on. But this time, when i do my wiki, i'm going to make sure it's updated every-episode...for instance, character pages and song pages.
Also...this season, can you not spoil if they're going to win Sectionals or Regionals...because i felt last season, you kind of revealed sometimes i think you did it unknowingly or inadvertenly. But yeah :)
Did you get my other message about Walker and Beth's outcome?Loading editor
Moved into your new bedroom? How do you mean by that? Like, moving houses or just switching rooms in your house? Sorry, i might have missed something there. And Perks of Being a Wallflower is AMAZING, I love that film so much. I love the actors in it and the stories are really nice. I haven't seen Silver Linings Playbook yet, but I got it from Malaysia cause I love Jennifer Lawrence.
Sounds great, I've never seen the snow but since my background is Italian and Hungarian, I hope someday to visit both places and maybe see the snow. Honestly, I don't really know very much about the Hungarian culture but I know a lot about Italian culture, mostly I think because I have more family from my mum's side (who's of Italian heritage) than I do of my dad's side. My dad was born in Hungary but my mum was born in Australia, but both her parents are Italian. Anyway, enough of that. :P
Yeah, I find the stereotypical gay characters are often too feminine, and I think the reality is that a lot of gay people out there aren't all girly and fashion-obsessed, for example.
Well I'm really excited to see how you write the Spencer story in your new fic, I think the way you wrote it before was excellent of course, but I still love seeing how one story can be handled differently in many ways.
I agree, Spencer was one of your most well-developed and consistent characters.
Fair enough, I understand. I kind of wish I updated my wiki all the time when I first started because now that I'm so behind with updating things i'm not motivated.
I think that's a good idea. I'll make sure I don't say too much about the competitions this season then.
By the way, two more things.
1, i'm literally about to finish my character audition for your fic. Sorry if its a bit late.
2, I might not reply to your next message for a bit, because on Tuesday (the 20th) its my birthday (finally going to be 14!). Also, i kind of need to rest because at school in sport we have to do a 1 kilometer run at the start of every lesson, and I fell over a few times so now I have deep wounds on each of my knees and another on my right side on my hip. I'm finding it difficult to walk and they've started weeping, so yeah.. :(Loading editor
I didn't move into a new house, i just moved into a different room in my house. It probably sounds funny for me, but i've never had my own room. I've actually shared my room with my mother for as long as i could remember, because there's quite a few of us, so we have to share most rooms :) But now my sister, her husband and young one has moved out, i've got my own room at last.
I felt sorry for Patrick and i was so surprised at the twist at the end with Charlie. Because i'd never read the book, it was a major shocker. I love Emma Watson in that.
You'd never seen snow? I suppose we're even. You've never seen snow, i've never had my own room until now.
I agree.
Yeah. I'm debating whether when i do my wiki, for it to be just an episode wiki...meaning it's just episodes or it's a wiki, where there's character and song pages and stuff. What do you think?
I think Spencer to me, was how Laura was to you. They're kind of similiar, in that they both had abortions and we're cheerleaders.
Is it a girl or boy? Just try and hurry with it, because i've delayed the auditions for so long now. People on GW, have started fan-fics yesterday and posted the cast-list by today, wheras mine is like a month over-due.
Oooh. Happy Birthday :) Hope you have a great day and i hope your hip and knees improves.
P.S. Do you think in the fic. The Unitards should change their choir name?Loading editor
That makes sense. I've had my own bedroom all my life, but my mum said while she was growing up she always shared it with her sister. It does sound like you have a big family. I only have a younger sister, and my parents obviously, so I have a pretty small family.
I didn't read the book either. I still haven't though, but I think it would be a good book to read sometime. I love Emma Watson in practically everything she's been in. :P
Yeah, cause obviously it doesn't snow in the majority of Australia, so I would never have seen it growing up. And the state I live in has never received snow in all of history, so I don't see it happening too soon. :P And usually when we travel, we go in our Winter to escape the cold (so when we go to other countries, their seasons are generally reversed so it is summer and won't snow).
I think it's better to do character and song pages as well. Personally though, character pages are a real pain in the neck, because you have to update their biographies every episode.
Thanks, my birthday was great. Mum surprised me and got flavoured macaroons (which I love). We had the family come over and for dinner we got Chinese. I got an iPad mini and a few other smaller things like books, chocolates, etc. but I mostly got money from my family (which is fine though because to be honest, I've reached that age where I don't usually know what I want anymore)
I'm not sure. I have thought about it before, because the name of The Unitards is really strange, and a name change would make the series sound a lot better. But, I've only ever thought of changing the name for season three. Because by then, the new choir would be dinstinguishable from the one shown on Glee, and a new name would just add that sense of refreshment. But yeah, I don't think I'll change their name until S3.Loading editor
It's not that we've got a big family, it's that we've not got a big house with enough rooms.
I also loved Patrick. He's so perfectly cast. Even if i haven't read the book, i know it.
That's really weird, how you've never seen snow. Well, i hope you see snow sometime.
I'll gonna do the character pages and song pages, but i've got a few known readers who i think will help.
Aww, that sounds so nice. I'm at that age too but i've got a list of DVD's i want, and i've crossed a few of them off already. P.S. I love Chinese food.
My birthdays' next year and nothing's planned or anything, though i've hinted i want to see Matilda: The Musical in London, but my sister said you'd have to stay the night...but i'm not at college as it's a Saturday, so it would work out..but it's unlikely, as my birthday's are never decent.
To be honest, i wrote that wrong and i was asking you if i should change the name for my fan-fic. But yeah, i think you should change the name too. I'm thinking of doing it.Loading editor

P.S. Look at new photos on my wiki and you'll see the re-done cover for Volume One of PTS. Tell me what you think...also i've posted a new tracklisting for the album. Tell me if it was real, would you buy the deluxe version or not (In the comments)
If you could put the album cover on the page, that would be great. It wouldn't let me do it.Loading editor

Hey Hinton!
Sorry I didn't reply earlier. I haven't had time to visit this wiki, or any wiki actually. My dad's been in hospital and my mum has a shoulder problem creating limited movement, that apparently will never go away.
Anyway, I'm back now, and thats all that matters.
I love Mr Diamond! He's great, can't wait to see him. :)Loading editor
Btw, how is writing for Fusion going?Loading editor
Hey Jordz!
Oh my gosh I'm so sorry to hear that bro! Is your dad all better now?
Haha I thought you might
Ah... Fusion is on hiatus at the present moment so I can catch up on writing and such :DLoading editor
Yeah, he's back at work but he's still got major problems with his back.
Oh okay, can't wait for new ep!
Btw, next ep of my fic should be up in three weeks. I really wanted to get ahead of my writing so I'm always a few eps ahead. Plus, I'm going on a holiday to Singapore and Penang in three weeks for 2 weeks, so this way, there won't be a big break between the first release date and ep 2 which will be posted when I get back. :)Loading editor
Phew that's good to hear I'm glad he's feeling good enough to work. But it's a shame about him still having problems :(
Haha thanks Jordan :)
Awesome! Can't wait to read the premiere <3 I hope you have a lovely time while you're away on holiday :)Loading editor
Hey! Yeah, it is a shame but he's definitely getting better. :)
I think the premiere is the best episode I've written so far. Obviously you guys have different opinions when you read, but I seriously think it's the most well-planned ep ever.Loading editor
That's good then :)
Haha I'm sure it's gonna be the best episode you njust keep getting better as you write so the next one you write should be amazing! :DLoading editor
Haha, it's the same with your episodes. I just think for this new ep, the songs just fit really well and all the stories merge together well.Loading editor

Hey. I know it's random but here's some trivia i added on the WAS page. It's details about the deleted scenes. They're before the song covers.
Also. I've been doing some heavy planning on S3. S1 will be 22 episodes in total (the first semester of the 2012-2013 year) S2 will pick up from that after Sectionals and it'll be 13 episodes, which will include Spencer and Jessica's graduation. S3 will be 22 episodes and it's going to consist of some of the most ambitious stories yet.
I think Glee's problem is that they tried to be more ambitious and big, but totally lost the emotional centre of most of their characters. Wheras with my fan-fic, S3 will be ambitious and explosive but it'll be the most emotional. I think it'lll be bigger things, the club is tackling not the actual scale of it.Loading editor

Just read it and I love the trivias. I can't wait to see the pre-rituals in the upcoming Regionals ep, haha.
S3 already? Lol. I suppose it's better to overplan than underplan. I've planned up to S4 for my fic. I'm hoping I can make it to S4, after that, it might have to stop, as I'm not sure whether I'd be able to continue writing then, for many reasons.
I like those ideas. So it's kind of like you switched your original plans around, so that season one no longer has 13 eps, but 22, and season two now has 13 instead of 22. Btw, I know I might be wrong, but I have a feeling SD win Sectionals, because otherwise there'd be no competition in S2 (wouldn't there?)
I'm sad to think that Spencer and Jess will be gone, but I suppose it's just the way it's got to be, but hopefully their graduation won't be there absolute last appearance, because otherwise then I'd be really sad if we didn't get to have a scene every now and then of how they're going.
Also, about characters graduating. After S2, do you think it'd be unnecessary to have Terri be one of those characters that makes reappearances every now and again, or do you think it'd be stupid for him to appear after S2 ends? I know I've got time to think about it, but it sort of helps me with planning for the final arc of S2. I feel like if I bring him back, his role will be quite minimal, sort of like Quinn's in S4 of Glee, but I feel his character was sort of main in S1, and that all of the time I've spent on him already was kind of wasted if I just write him out in S3.
I agree. Glee always tries to tackle heavy/big stories, when really most viewers would be happy with lighter stories that still develop characters. I think S4's continuity was completely messed up. I know they tried to make amends for some continuity errors in the season, but there were simply way too many errors that they've introduced. And one of my biggest annoying things about last season was how Sam was made extremely dumb. Still bugs me how it just came out of nowhere. And also Ryder typing perfectly on the computer, when he's supposed to have dsylexia. Pretty stupid.Loading editor
Thanks :) I hope you understand why i cut the scenes but most of them will be re-used anyway in different ways. No, the pre-rituals scene is in the Sectionals episode which is Ep 14.
I think S4 would probably be my last season if i ever get there. But even if there's only 1 season, it's a good one i think. And yes, it's better to overplan than underplan.
Yeah, i've changed some plans around. I thought S2 would be better as 13 episodes as if there's not more, it would just be fillers or unescescarry stuff. S2 is the same year as S1 but the second semester. You'll just have to see if they win or not...S2 is kind of a different beast to S1. Even if they do win, they'll have Regionals to contend to.
Aww..it's nice to know you like them characters. Jessica's not had a lot so far and apart of me has been using her in moderation. S2 mostly consists of their afterschool plans/ graduation prep...since Spencer and Jess are the only ones in a glee club who are graduating.
Nope, graduation will not be their last appearences. I feel Spencer has evolved into a character that's so good, that it would be a loss to write her off. Spencer will still be a main character in S3, you'll see whether she makes it to NYADA or not..S2 is about her audition processes and things like that. Warning: Don't expect anything.
Jessica will still be featured in some capacity but she'll be a recurring character. I've already planned everything and it looks promising.
I feel to be quite honest, you should write Terri off after S2...you can reference him now and then but if you don't feel anything in writing him or don't know what how to approach his character, there's no point flogging a dead horse, is there? I feel he could dissapear in S3 and then in like the last ever episode, he could have a guest appearence to tie stuff together.
S3 of my fan-fiction will head into a more darker territory (is that how you spell it?) but a part of this stems from the fact, Jessica and Spencer will now be out of school and living properly in the big world. I don't think Glee adresses these things properly or realistically and i'm going to try my best to hit the nail on the coffin.
S4 of Glee would have been a lot more better if instead of having newbies, it was just Blaine, Sam, Artie, Tina, Joe, Sugar and the other chair-fillers were just background dancers..then we could have had a more coherent focus on each of them. Though admittenly, i love Kitty, Ryder and Unique..for some reason, i prefer Unique than Wade.
They did say in a scene that Ryder's gotten better with his typing though.
P.S. S2 will also follow a new format where since there's 13 episodes, each episode will have a main focus. For instance, one episode will focus heavily on Mary Lou and the other, Parrish.Loading editor
Hey Jack. Sorry I never got to replying back to you, but I haven't been on the wiki or any wiki actually for a while. I've just been in a rough place lately. My dad's been in hospital and my mum's got a major problem with her shoulder that's limiting most movements, so my sis and I have had to help around a lot. Plus, I've just been generally busy with schoolwork and such. But anyway, I'm back now. I hope you're not mad at me for leaving.
I'm really excited for S2. From what you've told me, it sounds really good. And I think it will work better as 13 eps. Btw, how is your writing going for next ep?
It's funny how I really want to see and know what characters do after high school, but at the same time, I'm kind of sad that they're graduating Rosa High.
I'm still not sure whether I'll ever write Terri out completely. S2 is still a big season for him, because the story from S1 has to continue and resolve obviously, plus, I hate it when characters leave a show straight away. I kind of want to work my way up to Terri leaving, so that its kind of expected when he does leave, which is probs S3.
I agree. Glee showed leaving high school much too lightly. Like, as if a girl in real life would just go to New York and move in with two friends from high school. (I'm talking about Santana, btw). I think they should have showed a lot of the darker sides of moving, and they haven't really shown Rachel missing her dads or anything. Also, I kinda wanted a reunion with the Berry's in NY.
Yeah, I think Joe and Sugar especially have been ignored. Like, why introduce newbies if they're just going to be sitting in the back the whole time? Plus, it's a waste of some good voices (I actually loved Vanessa's voice in Summer Nights, Cell Block Tango, etc.) And if the rumours of Vanessa leaving for S5 is true, I'm going to be so mad.
Sounds good. I like that idea. :)Loading editor
Hey Jordan. That's ok. Aww that's so bad, i hope your dad and mum get better. Of course i'm not mad at you leaving, just felt kind of lonely and i kind of went into panic mode, thinking you'd never come back or that something bad happened to you..but i calmed down and thought you'd probably just be enjoying your holiday.
S2 is going to be amazing and i think the 13 ep formula will help greatly.
Well...i've actually not wrote anything for the next ep because i'm sort of in a funk/ writer's block..but when i do begin to write, i'll tell you. When i write the first scene, i'll post it as a like a promo. P.S. When the new episode is out, one character will be a upgraded to a regular + the episode will be in two parts but will only have one episode page and one title.
It'll be fun and i get what you mean. I can't wait to see what Justine, Harmony, Winter do espescially after school and oh, Amanda. :)
That's fine.
I agree. It was too unrealistic and too light...when i get to that stage of graduation and a new life after school, i'm going to take a different route and though i don't nescescarrily like my fan-fic becoming dark, sometimes it's a good thing as it's realistic. A Berry's reunion would of been amazing and i really wish that Will wanting to be on Broadway was this season...because he doesn't seem as attached to the newbies...so he could have left and tried out auditions for musicals...and also bumped into Rachel and Kurt.
They should of done an episode with April Rhodes in NY or one where Jesse James makes it there + I also don't like how the whole splitting location with NY has happened, as they barely ever show NY outside. When i read it initiially, i expected the NY life, not the NY life stuck inside a Bushwick apartment.
I wouldn't of minded them being ignored so much if they didn't falsely advertise them as newbies in S3, so you kind of expect storylines and songs..but it never really happened much. The whole The Glee Project concept to me, is crap...because runner-ups do better than the winner if you're not Blake :PLoading editor
Speaking of holidays, in three weeks on Friday, I will be going on a two-week holiday to Singapore and Penang. It will actually be my term two school holidays then, so I probably won't visit the wiki much then.
I feel terrible because I haven't posted anything this year really. The hiatus has been extended so much, but I really want to get ahead of my writing before I post anything. Currently, I've written part 1 and 2 to "Everybody's Changing", and I've written about three scenes for "Before the Beginning." Btw, part 1 of the first ep will be called Everybody's Changing, whereas the second part of the ep will have a different, unique name, rather than being called "Everybody's Changing, Part 2" which is kind of boring.
I agree. I like having "dark" storylines, as long as they don't get too violent or fantasy-like. I think Glee too often portrays things much too lightly, so I'm glad you're not afraid to move into a darker territory with your writing when you feel like it should go that way.
That's a really great idea. I wish Will had gone to Broadway. It doesn't seem like he's living his dream as a director. I kinda think that S4 was a mess for Finn's dream. Like, I'm glad they've decided he's at college now and they finally made up their mind, but seriously writers, you didn't have to take a whole season for him to make up his mind. First, he's applying to an acting school, then he's in the army, then he thinks about trying out for NYADA, then he works at Burt's tire shop, takes over the glee club, now he's at college.
I agree. All they've really shown of NY is them being at NYADA or at the Bushwick apartment. No real NY life seeing the attractions or out in the business or anything. And yes, April should have bumped into maybe Rachel and Kurt in NY. Although, they did say they didn't really want Kristen back before. However, I'm glad Shelby popped up. Hopefully she comes back again in S5 but her role is hopefully more important.
I know, right! The Glee Project is quite pointless to me. They may as well just have them sing once or twice, then pick! Because their title (2nd, 1st) isn't even true.And even if you don't win (Ayleen), you can still get a role. It's so pointless. If there's another season of it, I don't think I'm going to watch it because it'll most likely annoy me and it's so over-edited to make it interesting.Loading editor
Yeah, that's fine and that sounds amazeballs. I know it's not yet but enjoy yourself.
You know though i love your fic to absolute bits, i think you should hold off the episodes a tincey bit longer...because i think i'll enjoy it more (Not to say i wouldn't enjoy it anyway) Yeah, i agree...having two different names for two parts is a good idea...i never liked it when shows or fics that had two-parts were under the same name.
I'm thinking of splitting Ep 7 into two parts. Part One will be something else...and Part Two will be "Beware Of The Dog, He Barks And Bites" :) P.S. A promo will be released in the upcoming weeks also i'll be changing all my past episodes to past tense.
I wish he went to Broadway too because he just looked like he didn't care about the newbies that much in the beginning...like he left for Washington prior to Sectionals and then got mad during Regionals.
I wish Finn would figure out what he wants to do but i'm enjoying it because i think it's partly realistic.
When i heard about the split to NY, surely i wasn't the only one who expected them to see attractions and stuff kind of like they did in "New York". I also didn't like the NYC side much because it was never very linear, it didn't really follow on like it should have.
Oooh, i hope April comes back. WHAT? They said they didn't want her again?
True, true.Loading editor
Hehe, I'm so excited.
Yeah, it's kind of boring when they have the same name but just with a "Part 2" or 1 at the end. Season 2 has five two-part episodes
Ooh, I'm liking the sound of splitting the ep up. And as for changing all eps to past tense, I like that too. I'm still thinking of re-writing episodes so that they're all in past tense, as well as changing a few continuity errors/adding in a bit more descriptive language.
Yeah, I'm annoyed he didn't go to NY. Even if he was only on Broadway for a little for a certain role, I would have enjoyed that a lot more. And like you said, he doesn't seem as attached to the newbies as much as the older characters.
I'm glad they dragged it out in a way because it is realistic, I just feel that he was constantly moving from one thing to another and that kind of annoyed me in the sense that all those little jobs like being in the army don't really add anything to where he is now.
I agree. The NY side had way too many mini plots, they never continued on like you said. Like each episode had a new plot, it never continued on and that annoyed me.
I'm pretty sure it was after season three that they said they didn't want to keep bringing back minor guest stars and I'm pretty sure they mentioned Kristen. They said she didn't really have a use for coming back considering that Will was with Emma. Kristen said that she enjoyed her time on the show.Loading editor
Though i kind of classify it was one episode, Part One and Part Two will have a main story with many subplots. Part One is about Spencer and something (can't tell you what) and a little preparation for Invitationals. Part Two will be Invitationals. ...this time i'm hoping to release both parts together..and update, i've only written one scene so far because i want to spend my time on it to get it right, instead of rushing it.
Yeah. I just hate how present tense reads...past tense is so much better.
I feel that Finn's time in the army should of been more bigger and more memorable than what it was, it seemed like such a big thing since he wanted to honour his dad and then it become a throwaway plot for the Glee disposal.
What also annoyed me about NYC, isn't Kurt in The Adams Apples or did he leave when he broke up with Adam. I just think they never made the NYC plots as clear...like i didn't even know he was with Adam like his boyfriend until it was mentioned. Also, i felt that after Kurt won NYADA bragging rights, the loser Rachel should of joined the Adams Apples.
I know that not everyone who graduates from glee club isn't going to go into the music businness or broadway or whatever but it seems like characters like Quinn, never gave credit to it and it just to me felt like it was something on the side for her.
Bummer. I love Kristen.Loading editor
Sounds really good. Yay, I love some Spencer! I'm really excited to see the outcome of her storyline right now and if she'll eventually rejoin SD or not.
I think it's good to take your time. I'd rather wait that little bit longer and read a fantastic episode than read a rushed episode early.
I find past tense much easier to read too. Present is confusing to write, in my opinion.
I agree. They made Finn's army storyline seem like such a biggie, but then he ended up just leaving in the first episode he's back in S4. -.-
I know, right! I thought they really could have showcased the Adam's Apples a bit more. It seemed like the introduction to the show choir in NYADA had so much potential. Kurt should have convinced Rachel to join the Adam's Apples, it would be nice to see the NYADA show choir a bit, that would be nice.
Quinn getting accepting into Yale really didn't add much to the story. It was a great idea, however, it never really did much to her character. Personally, I think the writers could have found a way to add Yale and Mike's dance school into the story more. Like, show a little of it would have made the season so much better in my opinion.
I know, I really loved Kristen. She's a great actress and singer. :)Loading editor
I know..but S1 is a 22 episode season, that's the only way it can work and it's going to take ages for it to finish. If Narise was avaliable, i'd ask her if she'd be my co-writer so episodes can come out quicker...+ our writing styles are similiar and she was originally going to be my co-writer. :)
You'll have to see.
When a book is present tense, i put it down immediately because i can't stand to read as much as can write it...which is sad because it could be a great book.
I know..but instead, we got Rachel's and Kurt's boy troubles again.
I would have loved that to happen. I wish in S4, instead of introducing Kitty (god bless her though), Marley, Ryder and Jake. They should of just focused on Tina, Blaine, Sam, Artie, Britt, Joe, Sugar and Unique and use band members or random dancers or like Dottie or Brett the stoner..as seat-fillers. They wouldn't get any major storylines or songs or lines because you know they're background characters anyway. And also, they should of shown Quinn at Yale, Mike at his place and Mercedes and Puck in L.A.
P.S. I posted an excerpt of the new episode on my wiki. I hope you can post a comment of your opinion and what you think so far and what you hope to see this episode :)
And though, i'm trying to take my time with it, the aim is for it to be released Mid- September. I know that's a long wait but that's how it is. You see, all my episodes are planned out or have outlines and as time comes for the next episode, the finer details grow or change or something pops into my head, which works better or something..so with the aim for it to come out Mid- September, it'll give me time to really finalize the following episodes, so there's shorter gaps between each ep.
Also. When the episode is released, i'll have an annoucement to make.Loading editor
Yeah, has Narise just been busy lately, or something else? Because I haven't seen her around any of the wikis lately.
The only set of books I was able to read in present tense was The Hunger Games trilogy. There was this awful book we had to read this year in English and it was in present tense and none of the characters had surnames, and about 10 of them were introduced all on the same chapter, it was awful. I'm surprised I did well on that essay :P
I agree, I hope S5 isn't just Rachel and Kurt's boy troubles again, other things would be much more interesting. I don't mind Santana getting a love interest though.
I'm not sure I agree with that completely. That would have worked well, but then when those characters graduated it would have been hard to set up the new series with almost 0 characters already in the glee club, if you get what I mean. I loved the introductions to the newbies, I just think that where they went with the characters wasn't good, and I don't like some of their over-usage and how Jarley is now seen as "The New Finchel" in a way, because they are shown literally every episode and its so annoying.
I wish they did show Quinn, Mike, Mercedes, and Puck and what they were doing. Would have been better than some of the other storylines.
I'll check out the excerpt now and comment. :)
That makes sense. If the end result is great, then I'm happy (and it always is great).
My episode will be posted ASAP once I get back. So unfortunately that means you still have to wait about 2 and a half weeks until I get back. And by the time I'm ready to post, it should be about 3 weeks from now. :(
Ooh, i wonder what the "announcement" is :PLoading editor
Sorry, once again, that was me. I just wasn't logged in -.-Loading editor
She's been busy with things but everything's okay, she's onboard and we're actually co-writing at the moment :)
Hahaha :)
I don't mind Santana getting a love interest but someone who keeps on her toes would be interesting. I just hope the NYC side is more linear and has a storyline following throughout. I also hope the Nationals competition is good and the songs are good because Sectionals and Regionals have beeen dissapointing.
I actually like this - a disagreement...hmm...i get what you're saying but i think when the seniors graduated, it would have brought the club back to square one and Will could draw on past experiences to find new members (Making him a focus again?) so like a Pilot 2.0 if you will.
I would have loved a Yale episode.
Thanks :)
Yay, i'm still excited.
You'll have to see, won't you?Loading editor
I agree, I would like to see Santana's possible love interest to sort of be the "leading" one in the relationship, instead of Santana always being it.
I agree, the NY side better be more linear. S4 NY stories were really short and sharp and moved on much too quickly. I feel like season five has a lot of improvements that need to be done if they want to keep viewers.
Ah, that actually sounds quite good now that you say it like that. Although, rumour has it that both Matthew and Jayma are leaving the show soon, which is kind of upsetting for me. I seriously feel like the show won't be the same if Will isn't directing ND. My second option would have been either Emma or Finn, but obviously Emma's leaving, and Cory has passed away (RIP Cory)Loading editor

Hey. Sorry for all the messages :) Have you heard Demi Lovato's new album? She released them last-night before the album's release. They're so good..it's definetley her best album..and a Demi tribute in S2 is in the works..i can now officially confirm. It'll feature music from Don't Forget, Here We Go Again, Unbroken, Demi and even some of her Camp Rock songs. :)
I've still not written 1x07 yet but i'm just not feeling it yet. I want to write it when i feel ready but since i've been away, i've planned SO MUCH. This season is going to be insane..and there's a special episode ahead - which i can't spoil. 1x07 is also going to be the longest episode of the season yet.Loading editor

That's fine. :) I was just at school, that's all. And no, I haven't heard her new album actually. That is something I am going to have to do this weekend (I don't have time this week, otherwise I would totally do right away).
I haven't planned all of the songs for that episode yet. I have some that are confirmed, but since she has a new album, I might be adding some of those newbies into the ep. There are also some other songs that I'm thinking of removing (but don't worry, Heart Attack isn't being cut :P)
I understand how you feel. Like, I've finished Everybody's Changing, Part 1, but I haven't really started Part 2 at all yet. Firstly, because I've been doing other things that have had priority over my writing, but secondly, because I'm really not sure where to start. I have things planned, but I don't know how to write them into scenes. That's what I'm worse at. I can think of really great ideas, but sometimes it can be difficult to put them into episodes.
I'm really excited for ep 7 of PTS. :)
By the way, I hope you don't find this question silly, but I'm really not sure what to do with Teddy in S2. I sorta feel like writing her out, because she's practically a wasted character, but I know that there's got to be some good storyline I could give her. Do you have any ideas?
I even thought of giving her a boyfriend, but at the moment, the relationships are pretty heavy and I don't want to add any more. S2 has no new relationships involving the main characters. Any relationship that has been used in S1 is what is going to be explored more.
Btw, sorry for the very long message. Didn't realize until I went to post it. :P Sorry.Loading editor
They're awesome...best album yet.
Thank god...HA isn't being cut. I think some of her new songs will definetley be good for the episode. I just feel it..though i know Demi is sort of winson-based if i remember you saying. :)..and from that, i expect a Winson duet.
Yeah, i get it. Just take your time...it always comes out better. Sometimes - about the bit of having good ideas but them being difficult. Sometimes, i have good ideas but bad execution or i can have good ideas...but they're out of place and should have been in another episode or something.
It's not silly at all. I think maybe she could be the second to learn about Rex's crush on Nick and sort of be his guide. Maybe Teddy thinks he should keep it a secret...or she could join the super girls and encourage underdogs to join. Sorry, them ideas might be a little crap but i don't know..maybe it would be best, to write her off.
Me personally, wouldn't want her to have a boyfriend because then it feels like..the only way she can have a focus, is to be on someone's arm.
It's okay.Loading editor
I'm so excited to hear the new songs. :)
Yes, there is one Winson duet in Demi. But there are plenty of other Winson duets in other parts of the season. This season is going to be so different, relationship-wise. Like, the relationships are still being explored and developed, but I'm hoping they don't take over from the main plot anymore, unlike the first season a lot of the time.
I've actually got so many ideas that I have that I wish I used. Although, I always think of them after the episode that they could have been used in is released.
I like the idea of Teddy helping Rex with his feelings for Nick, acting sort of as a guide. And I liked your second idea too, but since it's sort of similar to Sugar joining The Super Girls, I probably won't use that idea. But it sort of gave me an idea for Teddy though. I've thought of something else that could display her and give her a story.
Yeah, that was my opinion too. I hate it when characters are introduced for the sole purpose of being a love interest to another character. For example, that's probably why characters like Blaine, etc., started off pretty boring and characterless. Btw, I hate Glee for adding Adam into the story. He's practically added nothing to the story, and they've barely continued his relationship with Kurt at all, I thought they were going to handle it well, but they didn't. Hopefully, there's some continuation in S5.
Btw, what did you think of the All or Nothing songs/spoilers?Loading editor
I thought there would be a Winson duet and i think it would be good if Harmony and Jason had another duet, since their last one was amazing. Funny, how Jason did nothing really in the first nine episodes and then he's become such a prominent part and he's sort of the male lead to me.
Randon but i had a storyline in my head..what if Harmony gives away her lead to Amanda again and she's asked to pick a male lead..and she says Nick. But Rex is annoyed and Amanda thinks it's because he wanted to be lead, which shocks her since he's not shown much background interest in the club..but really Rex hates the thought of Amanda and Nick spending even more time..espescially picking songs where he's in the back, swaying.
Thanks. I don't mind about the second idea..it's just how imagined Tina to be on the cheeros (and then when she was on, it was different to how i'd pictured it) Cool, can't wait.
I actually liked Blaine in S2, he was my favourite version but after that, i just wished they made him and Kurt - a one season thing, just like Kurt's first proper relationship as Blaine is so tiring now.
I actually liked Adam and it's a real shame, we didn't get more than what we had. I thought he'd be something big like Brody, without being an escort or an assumed drug-dealer.
I'm feeling nothing for the new episodes and it's annoying me, how everyone's talking about the seasons to come when we've still go this episode to finish first. None of the songs were good to me..they weren't finale-like or even Regionals material. I would have rather had a Tina/ Blaine duet...just because Marley writes the original songs, doesn't mean she has to star in them all the time.
I Love It was pretty auto-tuned but i see Tina/ Kitty in the photos, so i'm happy..i'm hoping the performance makes the song more listenable. HOF isn't as special as i think people are making it out to be...oh well, i hope the episode is better than what i expect.
You?Loading editor
I'm actually thinking of another Harmony/Jason duet. In fact, if I'm being truly honest, at the start of the series, I was thinking of making Harmony and Jason the main couple, but then I thought that Terri would have fitted better, somehow. But I'm sort of glad I didn't go down the previous path as otherwise Winson wouldn't exist and Winter as a character would be much less developed, as Jason has played a big part in her storylines.
I really like that idea. I'm probably going to use that. Although, it will take place in episode three, as ep 1 has many other things to sort out first, and ep 2 is obviously the episode set in the past. In fact, that works really well with the story I've already planned for ep 3, which is a bit of a Amanda/Nick/Rex story.
Me too, i thought they would have handled Tina joining the cheerios much differently. Same with Blaine.
S2 Blaine was my favorite too. In S3, he was okay, but soon after that was when I kinda went off him.
I thought Adam was going to play a big part in Kurt's story, too, just like Brody, but obviously the writers had other plans. I feel like introducing Adam was a waste, because if Klaine is going to be endgame (I'm just assuming here), then what the hell is Adam going to be doing later on? Is he just going to be another character that comes and leaves straight away...
I've hated the majority of the songs lately. They're just not good songs IMO and I barely remember any of them very much.
My fave song in AON, is All or Nothing. The rest were pretty average, and even Jessica Sanchez's songs were pretty bad, IMO. I Love It was sooo autotuned (or at least it sounds like it). I think ND shouldn't have chosen such recent, poppy numbers. They should have gone with completely different songs, I think. What was Mr. Schue thinking? Lol.Loading editor

Republicans Defend Christie By Invoking Benghazi
Some of the nation's most prominent conservatives sought to downplay New Jersey Governor Chris Christie's bridge scandal on the Sunday morning political talk shows, suggesting it paled in comparison to purported Obama Administration perfidies like Benghazi or the IRS "targeting" of conservative groups.
"Chris Christie has been totally open here," Reince Priebus, Chairman of the Republican National Committee (RNC), said, dismissing any notion that Christie had something to do with the political closing of the George Washington Bridge.
"He stood there for 111 minutes in an open dialogue with the press. Now, only if Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton would give us 111 seconds of that, would we find out some things we want to find out about Obamacare, Benghazi, The IRS."
Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) echoed Priebus. "I think [Christie] took the bull by the horns, held people accountable, fired people. And I think it is a very big difference than how this administration has handled things — IRS, Benghazi, you can keep your health insurance if you want it. Nobody's been fired over that. And what we're seeing is a big difference." Kinzinger concluded that the scandal "may set him up for 2016."
"This is not Watergate. This is not even the IRS targeting of last year," said Wall Street Journal Editorial Board Member Kimberly Strassel. She then invoked a older conservative line blaming Obama for last year's devastating budget cuts and government shutdown: "in fact, it's not even, if you think about this as a raw display of political power, it's not even this White House using the sequester and the shutdown to inconvenience millions of Americans to make a political point."
"How could you not have known?," former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani asked rhetorically. "How did President Obama not know about the IRS targeting right wing groups?"
Sean Spicer, the RNC's communications director, spun Christie's handling as "what America is yearning for."
"Yes, mistakes will happen," Spicer said. "Do you own them? Do you take responsibility for them? Do you put in place — take action to ensure they don't happen again. Too often, whether it's Benghazi, GSA, the IRS scandal, we don't say 'me me me.' We say it's somebody else's fault, blame somebody else, I had nothing to do with this. Chris Christie did. He said the buck stops with me."
Perhaps the forthright summary of this position came in a tweet from Rep. Robert Aderholt (R-AL). "No Christie fan but 'Bridgegate' is small potatoes vs [Ambassador Stevens] + 3 others killed due to neglect/[mismanagement] -selective outrage #Benghazi."
The George Washington Bridge closure disrupted four separate emergency medical response efforts, including one for a 91 year old woman who later died. The newest documents about the scandal, released after Governor Christie's press conference , have shown the scope of the scandal to be wider than previously believed.
Karl Rove made similar comments to the above on Fox News Sunday. In response to Bob Woodward's argument that the Christie scandal was uniquely bad because it "came out of that office," Rove said "So did Benghazi, and so did IRS… come out of appointees of President Obama and Secretary of State Hilary Clinton!" The Republican strategist concluded that "the amount of attention paid this week to Chris Christie makes the coverage of Benghazi at the same time and the coverage of the IRS pale in significance" and that Christie's handling of the scandal shows that the Governor has "what we want in a leader."
Aaron Schock, Bill Owens Being Investigated By House Ethics Committee
WASHINGTON — The House Ethics Committee said Wednesday it will continue an investigation of Illinois Republican Rep. Aaron Schock over allegations he solicited donations of more than $5,000 per donor to a super political action committee. The committee also said it's continuing a probe of whether a trip New York Democrat Bill Owens took to Taiwan was arranged by lobbyists for the country's government.
Both cases had been referred to the House committee by the Office of Congressional Ethics, a separate, outside ethics office. The House committee announced its decision to continue looking into each case on Wednesday, while releasing OCE's report on both cases.
In a statement, the ethics committee said that in both cases merely "conducting further review … does not itself indicate that any violation has occurred, or reflect any judgment on behalf of the committee." The committee also said it would refrain from further comment pending completion of initial reviews.
Both Schock and Owens said they expect to be exonerated by the House committee.
Schock's case involves an allegation he asked House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., to contribute $25,000 from his leadership PAC to a super PAC that backed Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill., in a House primary against Rep. Don Manzullo. Kinzinger won the March 2012 primary. Redistricting following the 2010 census put the two congressmen in the same and the primary.
According to the OCE report, the Super PAC backing Kinzinger, the Campaign for Primary Accountability, received a minimum of $115,000 that came from "efforts of Rep. Schock and his campaign committee."
Schock told investigators that he never requested the $25,000 from Cantor. According to the OCE report, Cantor told investigators that Schock had asked him if he would give the $25,000 donation to back Kinzinger. Cantor said he then gave money from his committee to the super PAC backing Kinziger in the primary.
The case involving Owens relates to a December 2011 trip he and his wife took to Taiwan. Owens and his wife were invited by the Chinese Culture University of Taiwan. But the trip may have been arranged by lobbyists for the country. Lawmakers are prohibited from taking trips that are paid for by lobbyists.
Owens said he expected the investigation would clear him of wrongdoing.

Republican Congressman Aaron Schock, despite ethics issues, is considering a run for Governor of Illinois
Progress Illinois is reporting that Republican Congressman Aaron Schock of the 18th Congressional District of Illinois is contemplating a 2014 run for Governor of Illinois.
However, Schock has an "Eric Cantor" problem.
Schock goaded House Majority Leader Eric Cantor into donating $25,000 from Cantor's own SuperPAC, ERIC PAC, to the Campaign for Primary Accountability, which supported Republican Congressman Adam Kinzinger in the 16th Congressional District of Illinois Republican Primary, who narrowly won an incumbent-versus-incumbent primary against Donald Manzullo.
In the last 15 years, two of Illinois's former governors, George Ryan, a Republican, and Rod Blagojevich, a Democrat, have been sentenced to prison after being convicted on corruption charges. Simply put, Illinois does not need yet another unethical governor.

Who Can Replace Dick Durbin? | NBC Chicago
Sun-Times columnist Michael Sneed recently reported a rumor that's been going around in political circles: "U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin telling pals he might retire in two years." If Durbin does quit after three terms, here are some possible replacements.
DAN HYNES: The ex-comptroller finished second to Barack Obama in the 2004 Senate primary and barely lost to Pat Quinn in the 2010 gubernatorial primary. He'll only be 45 in 2014 and may be tempted to try again after two close races.
DAVID HOFFMAN: Former Chicago Inspector General Hoffman finished second to Alexi Giannoulias in the 2010 primary, and his supporters insist he would have won if the primary had been held in March, instead of February. However, he's too much of a goo-goo to excite minority voters, and no white Chicago Democrat has won a Senate seat since Paul Douglas in 1960.
TONI PRECKWINKLE: The Cook County Board President runs the county that will cast more than half the votes in the Democratic primary, and she's a Hyde Park liberal in the Obama mold. Would be the favorite to win the primary, but may experience an anti-Cook County backlash in the general election. Drawback: She'll be 67 years old.
SHEILA SIMON: It's her father's old seat. On the other hand, she couldn't get elected mayor of Carbondale, and only won statewide as Pat Quinn's running mate.
KWAME RAOUL: Hey, the state senator who used to hold Raoul's seat also had an exotic name, and he was elected to the U.S. Senate.
PAT QUINN: Facing certain defeat in his run for a third term as governor, would Quinn decide to switch offices and run for the Senate instead? He ran for this same seat in 1996, when Durbin won. Quinn will be 65.
JAN SCHAKOWSKY: The North Shore congresswoman considered running for the Senate in 2004. Too liberal for a statewide race.
AARON SCHOCK: He was the youngest congressman, the youngest member of the General Assembly and the youngest trustee of the Peoria School Board. Schock would benefit from the tradition of reserving one Senate seat for a Downstater. A Republican who's not hung up on racial or cultural issues, Schock has a knack for winning votes from people who don't agree with him on the issues — his inner-city Peoria district replaced him with a black Democrat. Plus, he'll only be 33.
ADAM KINZINGER: Another young Republican congressman, Kinzinger will only be 36 in 2014. Unlike his prospective seatmate, he actually flew combat missions in Iraq and Afghanistan. He expanded his statewide appeal by beating fellow incumbent Don Manzullo to represent the new 16th District.
JIM OBERWEIS: Just because we'd like to see him die broke.
KIRK DILLARD: He really, really, really wants to be governor, like ex-boss, Jim Edgar. But that ship sailed for him in 2010 when he lost the primary to Bill Brady by 193 votes. Dan Rutherford will be the Republican nominee for governor in 2014. So Dillard may as well run for the Senate.
Donald Manzullo has been ejected by upstart Kinzinger
CHICAGO (AP) — Longtime Republican Congressman Don Manzullo has lost a grueling primary election to freshman Congressman Adam Kinzinger in north-central Illinois.
There's no Democrat on the ballot, so Kinzinger is headed back to Washington.
The 16th Congressional District race was the only incumbent versus incumbent race in Illinois and pitted the veteran lawmaker against the former Air Force pilot.
That's because new congressional map drawn by Democrats put much of Kinzinger's old district into Manzullo's. Kinzinger decided to run in Manzullo's instead of challenging Democratic Congressman Jesse Jackson Jr., who easily won the Democratic nomination Tuesday.
The new 16th District curves through north-central Illinois from the Wisconsin state line to the Indiana border.
Kinzinger first won office in 2010 with strong tea party support, including an endorsement former Gov. Sarah Palin.
