I’m thinking of trying 2 different disciples to see which one I like better. Judas and maybe Peter

@godlyfantasy12. Ik Aramis has his sad past and all that you talked about…but is it okay if I still don’t feel sorry for him in the least…? 😅😟😥

@sarafini. Ooh, I like that idea!!! 😍
I have a small Biblical fiction idea on the life of Joseph, but I’m not really planning on working on it right now, tbh. 😅
February 15, 2023 at 12:02 pm #132971@freedomwriter76 lol! Yea I understand.

#ProtectSebFebruary 15, 2023 at 12:06 pm #132972Thanks for thinking of me, girl! *hug*
Yw! *hug*
I’m doing alright, just trying to figure out life and not get too overwhelmed. I feel like I’m at a cross-roads, and I should do something before it’s too late.
Oh yeah I get that. The ‘oh no times ticking away!’ response 😂
I’ll pray for you!
But I don’t know what, and that makes me anxious. Anyway, don’t mind me. I often get a bit stressed out and then my parents will talk it over with me and I’ll feel better! And I’m so blessed right now, I just need to recognize it and be thankful!
That’s great you can talk to your parents about it! I’m that way with my mom. I’ll be all panicky and then we’ll talk and I realize I can stick it out a bit longer 😉
You’ve graduated, right? Is that the hard decision? Like to college, work or internship kinda thing?
So how are you doing?
Thanks for asking!
Idk, I’m doing well right now, but I seem to live on some kind of emotional rollarcoaster as of lately, which isn’t fun. The next year is super unpredictable for us, so yeah I don’t like not knowing what’s happening.
I’m also just dealing with some stress because I feel like everything is just changing so much for me in a short time, since my sister moved out I just like grew up two years or something 😂 idk how to describe it. I do my own stuff now, have my own room, I’m learning to drive and doing more stuff alone, idk, emotional growing pains? Is that a thing? I think it’s harder for me because I don’t have friends my age doing the same thing with me.
I just got a lot done for plotting book 2! It’s weird, usually I have all these little interactions I want, but I can’t figure out the bigger picture, for some reason it was opposite this time? I know Layson’s motives and everything, but I haven’t figured out the interactions that move the story forwards. I’m super excited because I get to start world-building the historical sites, ruins, and other bunkers of the world 😃

@godlyfantasy12. Okay, good. 😅😂
February 15, 2023 at 5:33 pm #133060Not sure who to tag…
For my main story: I just realized what Derek struggles with the most and it’s not what I thought it was. *mind-blown*
I thought it had to do with learning to let others love him but apparently it’s doing what’s right versus doing what’s easy.For the fan-fiction: I’ve been looking up spiders and surprisingly found a very cute fuzzy one that vaguely reminds me of Lucas the Spider. Peacock Spiders, if you’re interested. I’m not sure how the general public got away with naming it ‘SparkleMuffin.’
this keeps reminding me of Keefe calling Silveny GlitterbuttAlthough I’m not going with that one, I’m gonna do ‘Skeletorus.’OOOO and I found one that matches a character’s favorite color and it’s just so *chef’s kiss*. (Eight-Spotted Crab Spider)
XD I’m really surprised that I’ve like researching these so much cause I’m not a fan of spiders. It was almost a phobia when I was younger.
And I’ve been working on the villain but sharing would be serious spoilers so…
I don’t really have much else on this right now other than I’m researching spiders and spies. XD

@gwyndalf-the-wise. Those characters always just take the story wherever they want, don’t they!?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
February 16, 2023 at 4:30 pm #133208I did a retelling of the story of Philemon once. It hasn’t seen the light of day yet. 🙂 Basically, it was a retelling set in the Old West, with the runaway servant Onesimus cast as a trusted ranch foreman who runs off with his boss’s money and ends up in jail next to a circuit rider. It was kind of fun.

But right now I’m about to dive into the scene where my hero really loses it and hits bottom. It’s been a little tough because this scene has been in my mind and in my outlines forever, but I just had to change whose POV it’s in. So it could be a little challenging!

www.booksbyjayna.comFebruary 16, 2023 at 5:11 pm #133217Cool! I’m working on my second book (totally different structure/feel than the other ones I’m working on) It has a hero reaching rock bottom moment too, still working out the kinks (as in I haven’t even started outlining XD)

February 16, 2023 at 5:13 pm #133220That Philemon retelling sounds super interesting!!
Right now… well… I should be editing my draft…
Which I’ll probably actually go do right now. XD

@booksbyjayna. It’s always fun to make our characters hit that point…just being honest XD
They’re hard to write though. 😅
