[stylist] curious-would this be too confusing?

[Vejas Vasiliauskas]

Hi Sem,
That's a great  idea.
Is your story one of time travel? What is the premise behind it?
Yes, you are lucky, and it's funny that you say that because I'm 
thinking of some of the avoidance techniques I used.  For 
example, my main character spent most of the summer at home and 
could not make it to Europe.  I did this on purpose so I could 
write about something familiar.  My character did spend a month 
in England during schooltime with her dad, but I had her doing 
work online so that I could avoid going into details, so during 
the time she wasn't doing schoolwork she and her dad were just 
hanging out.  It sounds so silly now.

Perhaps you could have a Brit proof read your stuff.  I have seen 
widely
published American authors write about the UK or other places in 
Europe,
placing their American characters there or having characters from 
Europe so
as long as you're careful I'd say go for it.
The British character I'm currently working with in one of the 
books was
born in the 1800's, and is now in modern times in the U.S so he's 
more
learning how it is here so I'm lucky.  LOL.

I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed.
I get along with the voices inside of my head.
