hmmm...not really. the only thing i am completly against is vampires/werewolves/paranormal romance.
What about a traditional romance, possibly set in an earlier time period?
i'm fine with romance and an earlier time period is fine but im only in 8th grade so i dont kno too much about past time periods...
OH, well we can do whatever. :) Why don't you pick the topic and we'll just go from there?
i never like picking so if u want u can pick, plz
Um . . . what about a story of two girls who are best friends?
ok. they still in school or no? and if so what grade/age?
They can be any age; would it be easier if they were around your age? That's fine with me.
i'm fine with anything. they can be older if u want by a couple years
Okay, what about fifteen or sixteen?
fifteen is good. that would be 10th grade
Yep. Okay. So, do you have any ideas about a story for them?
well it is late and i have to go, but i promise to think about plot and characters. one ? before i go, the two friends should we make them the same or complete opposites?
Either way. I think opposites might be a bit more fun, though.
yeah thats what i was thinking too. ok, talk with you tomorrow.
How about this?
Two girls, polar opposites (One is the studious, shy, overachieving type. The other is the rebellious, outgoing, devil-may-care type.) And I was actually thinking about having them be twin sisters rather than best friends.
What do you think?

okay i'm liking it so far. what should the conflict be?
Maybe, since they're fifteen/sixteen . . . they both fall for the same boy (only they don't realize it's the same boy). He could be a player of sorts.
Um, I'd rather not do rhyming names. My sister and I have rhyming nicknames, and it's annoying :P.
How about:
Ava
Meri
Isla
Alyssa
Eve
Lea
Any of those look good?

Okay. Well, one of the girls can be Eve. Maybe the over can be Lea? It's close, but not rhyming. I'm thinking we could do dual narrations; that way you could write one of the sisters, and I could write the other. What do you think?
thats sounds good. if you don't mind it would be easier for me to write through th perspective of the studious/shy/quiet sister cuz that is how i am.
That's fine :). I'm the shy/studious type as well, but it might be fun to try something different. You can be Eve and I'll be Lea. Does that sound good?
I'm getting off for now, but I'll be back in about two hours. When I get back, I'll post a character profile thing I found that will help us define the girls.

Ooh, sounds good :).
Oh, and I like love triangles, so maybe the studious sister could have a guy friend who is in love with her, but she doesn't realize because she has her eye on the jerk?

Haha. Great. I'll talk to you later, then :).
Do you like any of the following names(srry i'm not to good with original names):~ Brendan
~ Devan
~ Dylan
~ Liam
~ Evan
and i could probably think of others if u dont like them...
Hm...I like Brendan, Dylan, and Liam :). Those are good.
okay. quick question about the twins-- identical or not?
Um...identical could cause some drama if the outgoing/slightly devious sister tries to impersonate her sister ;).
wait is that yes or no?srry
Haha. Identical. Let's go with that. :)
okay. have u thought about what u want them to look like?
Well, I'm a very visual person; so I tend to like finding pictures of actors/actresses. I'm not that big of a fan of Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen; but they would be a good pair. They look a lot alike (though they're actually fraternal), and we could use a picture of them from a few years ago, when they were about 15-16. Does that sound okay?
hmm i'll think about it. i'll search for other possibilities now tho.
Sounds good. Those are just the only twins I could think of off the top of my head. I'm open to other possibilities :).
Yes, they would definitely work :).
Yep. I think they'll be great.
okay. srry it took me really long to look through a bunch of pics, but i really like them. okay now i will work on Eve's profile. Oh, what should their last name be you think?
Okay, here is a profile I like to use when starting a character:

Family: Mother and father
Personality: Passionate, strong-willed,
Social Status (Geek, Jock, etc.):

As for last names . . . Eve and Lea:

Hello Candace. I was just thinking maybe it would be best if we collaborated on this project after the holidays. i am not on as much any more during this time because i am always so busy so i just thought it would be easier. let me know what you think, thanks.
