Oh, you’re fine, girl!! ๐ Thanks for jumping in and sharing your characters!! I’ll definitely check out that blog post, because I already know I just love Rosalie and Palladin!!:) And yes, I’d love to know more about them!! And thank you for saying that! I’m glad you think so ๐ And YES, Deek! (Honestly, it makes me so happy every time you fangirl over him. I mean it, I’m so happy you like my characters!)ย
I’m just glad I decided not to go through with killing Deek like I had originally planned.Yes, I’d love to read your blog post! ๐March 28, 2021 at 12:04 pm #96341Oh good:) Yeah, I have no idea why that happens… oh well I suppose. I agree with you on that, I’m so glad you thought of it and think so about Mejia/Filip. Because for a while I wasn’t sure if it was going to mess with the character I gave her, so yes, that is incredibly helpful:D And the more I think about that aspect of those two, the more I like it; and I think it could definitely add a layer of depth to their characters.
And the fact that he’s like that too, is one of the many super amazing/adorable things about Newton as well:)I adore Caira and Deek’s relationship all the way to the beginning when they escaped those soldiers:)
*Hands Deek back reluctantly* alight, since your positive that he doesn’t get killed. I was literally almost on the verge of tears at the thought of Deek sacrificing himself for Caira. It would have probably broke my heart into about a million pieces if he had died… *snatches him back* *re-reads post to make sure he survives* *Hands him back again* can never be too careful. Deek is defeintly a likeable character. I mean I liked him when I first heard about him, and then when I actually found out about this awesome guy? A million times more amazing!:DAnd absolutely NP:) because I absolulty mean it. And ditto, your posts have been a major inspiration/motivation for TSW, (I mean you don’t know how encouraging they are:) And never give up onย Fortitudeย unless of course a tornado snatches the manuscript. But even then you can re-write, because I honestly believe that you’ve got a special novel on your hands there.
Aw thank you! Funny you should say that, because just a little bit ago, I was thinking pretty much the same thing for my book dedication too:) I mean I don’t know how I could keep with writing right now without KP. So yep, my dedication page is pretty much planned out:)March 28, 2021 at 1:21 pm #96342Awesome profile portrait btw:)

March 28, 2021 at 3:18 pm #96352@writerlexi1216 Thank you and you’re welcome!๐ Thank you so much!!!!!!๐ I hope you enjoy it!!! Aww, you’re so welcome!!!<3 (I’m glad to know you don’t mind my fangirling over Deek.๐ I just LOVE him so much!!!! And he seems a lot like Palladin.) GIRL, HOW COULD YOU EVEN CONSIDER KILLING DEEK?!?!?!?!?!?!?!๐ฎ He’s the BEST. CHARACTER. EVER!!! I’m relieved you’ve changed your mind and are going to keep him alive now. Thank you!!!!! I can’t wait for you to read it!!!!!! ๐ It’s got a lot of collages and mock covers in it too!
@abigail-m Thank you so much!!!!! ๐ I hope you enjoy it and find the characters interesting!!!! ๐"It looks like a fairy world"~Meg from Little Women by Louisa May Alcott
Fall in love with JesusMarch 28, 2021 at 3:36 pm #96357I’m sure I will!:D
March 28, 2021 at 5:45 pm #96363I’m glad it was helpful!! ๐ It means a lot to hear you say that. Aww, thank you! Honestly, I never would’ve dreamed that Newton would’ve had so many fans, but it makes me so happy that he does!! Yay, thank you!! I’m glad–Caira and Deek’s relationship goes through such a dramatic change over the arc of the story that it’s enjoyable to write, and that’s part of the reason why I just couldn’t kill Deek. And, wait, seriously? Unfortunately, me too (I’ve brought myself to tears many times over this story… *sigh*) and yes, you have my word that he’ll stay alive. It was going to be a heartbreaking scene where he takes the blow of a sword for her, getting stabbed so that Caira would be safe. He was going to smile at her and tell her that he loved her just before he died, and at that moment I knewย I just couldn’tย kill him. So yes *takes Deek* he’s safe. (But yes, you can never be too careful with writers…)
Aww, THANK YOU! That means the world to hear you say that!! *looks out window for any tornadoes* Nope, I think I’m good. And your encouragement has just been the greatest thing ever! I feel like I repeat myself a lot, but I promise I mean every word! ๐ And you as well–I thinkย TSWย is positively amazing and 100% has the potential to turn into a bestseller someday ๐ Haha, yup! My book’s dedication page will be pretty full…
(Oh, and thank you! I figured it was time for a profile pic change… I may change it, I’m not sure, but thank you ๐ )
March 28, 2021 at 6:16 pm #96365Of course!!! ๐ Yes, of course I don’t mind!! It makes me so happy every time you do, because I honestly never thought people would want to fangirl over my characters like this!! Eeeek, that’s such a good feeling!! ๐ Ooh, really? Ah, I wanna know more about Palladin, because he sounds just awesome!! ๐ And *sniffles* unfortunately, yes, I had originally planned to kill Deek. He was going to sacrifice himself for his sister, Caira, in the last arc of the last book, until I decided that it would break my heart (and Caira’s) too badly. AWWW, girl, that seriously means the world to me!! Thank you x 1,000 for saying that!! Oooh, I can’t wait to read it!
March 29, 2021 at 12:09 am #96385Oh my goodness, I nearly cried, (no, literally). That sounds like the saddest scene ever *reaches back for Deek, but restrains self, remembering it doesn’t happen*. I mean I absolutely love Deek so much, that he would protect Caira even at the expense of his own life…… but him actually having to do it? It’s just too heartwrenching to even think about:,(
*Whew!* It’s such an extraordinary relief that he survives.
Yeah, you can never be too careful with writers, (although this seems kinda cruel to admit, one of my immediate cast dies later on in the story:( You’re being so much nicer to your cast than I am being to mine….. *sigh*Thank you!:D Yeah, I feel like I repeat myself a lot as well, (I may have even said that before XD ), but I always mean it too:)
March 29, 2021 at 7:35 pm #96460don’t look over here peeps, i’m just a sweet little conversation stalkerk off??????Lexi, u were going to kill Deek??????????ย NOOOOO!!!!!!ย I’m so glad u didn’t that would break my heart… ๐ขย I need to read your chapters, i’ll give u some feedback later (hopefully tonight, maybe tomorrow or the next day, considering my packed schedule ๐).ย Anyways… sry for stalking… ๐ฌ
what we do in life echoes in eternity
-gladiator, 2000March 29, 2021 at 7:41 pm #96461*sniffles* YES! I confess, Iย wasย going to kill Deek in the early drafts of the story, but it wasn’t going to be until the final arc of the last book.ย
And he was going to sacrifice himself for Caira, so that makes it even more heartbreaking๐ Haha, I’m glad I changed my mind too. Aw, thanks for wanting to read them, and I definitely understand if you don’t have the time! My chapters can be ridiculously long sometimes, so take your time. And it’s no problem–I stalk threads all the time XDApril 2, 2021 at 9:14 pm #96670Okay, so I’m back and going to chat about my character.
Because . . . well . . . I just love my character soooo much!So, I don’t think I’ve told anyone this yet, but Palladin has a Fairy guardian.Hehe, and she has a very important role in the story.He keeps his Fairy guardian a secret ’cause well she’s a Fairy and he doesn’t like Fairies and doesn’t want anyone to know about her. Also, I think Fairy Guardian is kinda like a mother figure for Palladin. Yep, that’s all I got to say right now.๐"It looks like a fairy world"~Meg from Little Women by Louisa May Alcott
Fall in love with JesusApril 3, 2021 at 5:25 pm #96702Whoa, girl!! That sounds so AMAZING!! I mean, I already know Iย loveย Palladin, but a fairy guardian? That’s, like, the coolest thing ever!! What’s her name? Do you mind me asking? Is she a main character? Aw, that’s so special that she’s like a mother figure *tries hard to keep from fangirling but failing* I don’t see many books about fairies, so I think that’s so unique!! ๐
April 3, 2021 at 10:23 pm #96704I’m with Lexi on that. Palladin sounds like such an AMAZING character!!!!!:D And I definitely love the concept of a Fairy Guardian:) That is just way too awesome!:D
