      @keilah-h Hm interesting idea! Tho, in the future Paxton is at ease with everything that’s happened in his life, and who he is, not that of course he doesn’t sometimes have his struggles, but even as he grows in the stories, and you can see even in the second series (if I ever get to it) he grows up quite a bit, becoming more confident in himself little by little.

              @mineralizedwritings so sorry! I got to drawing and forgot to check back here lol! Ur probs asleep now but sure it’d be awesome to talk about ur new WIP!!!

               

              Also ooh Names!

               

              So I don’t “come up” with the names myself usually, I find them online by searching meanings because I luv names with meaning!!! But that doesn’t mean I don’t still LOVE the names I find because they’re so perfect!

               

              and that being said I absolutely LOVE November’s name. It’s just adorable and so cute and I love it.

               

              But as for meaning…Corvina’s name ROCKS!

               

               

              Also, I do believe, if I’m not mistaken Jocelyn’s name I did come up with maybe because it was part of a song title and I really loved it, and then I looked it up and realized it meant Joy and I was like GASP THAT IS PERFECT!

               

               

              Two names I think I did come up with all on my own I believe were Grimm and Nyx,

               

              Nyx, I knew I wanted a tricky type name and Nyx was just perfect.

              Grimm is just…also perfect.

               

              Also Luna’s name was just perfect and popped into my head immediately lol (and then I found Dolunay which is a full version of the name Luna so yessssss)

               

              I honestly can’t remember with Paxton….I wanna say I found his online but idk!

               

              I found Ara’s online thru a Pinterest picture lol.

               

              Arthur’s I just thought of and I was like “Eh imma call u this for now” and it stuck like glue XD

               

               

              OH BUT BRENVEN?? that is a work of ART because it involved meshing things together and I just made it because I liked the sound of it, only to discover it could actually MEAN SOMETHING AMAZING’

               

               

               

               

              And wow I just ranted about all the names….and u asked about only my favorite. My bad XD.

                  Hey y’all! I’m gonna attempt worldbuilding some 😂

                   

                  I’ve got a really huge world to build but obviously rn need to focus on ma series lol.

                  So my plan is to worldbuild from my books.

                   

                  As in take what I already know and expand from there!

                   

                  Ill probably start with book four just because that’s the book I’m most excited about, lol and as of rn it has the most worldbuilding elements due to all of the races in it.

                  So ya!

                   

                  what’s everyone else up to?

                    @godlyfanatsy12

                    Oh! Worldbuilding sounds fun! Curious what you come up with. I need to do some worldbuilding for my new wip, you said on some previous post I could share, so here is the rant lol….

                    Ok! It’s a choose your own adventure (thought these were sooo cool as a kid). It’s 2nd person present tense. even though it says “you” as the main pronoun, it’s not literally you. The MC is Kelsley (I kinda make that up lol) Whittaker. I’m going to try a whole new art style for this series too! Kinda like breath of the wild? I’ve never played it before but I like it’s style. There’s going to be a page at the beginning that has the character’s picture, some stats to refer back to when making decision (Like if your going to cross a river, you should make sure he can swim XD), and a thingy that says “your mission”. It basically describes who you are (a prince sent to warn his sister in another country of impending war) and how long you have to do that. I might have some other info here, but I want it to all have a slightly medieval feel. So yeah! I need to worldbuild. I want some great names for castles and locations, if anyone want to help!

                    I’m trying to come up with the big decision, I think one of them is whether you eat these mushrooms you find (nutritious but has side effects, you’ll need a safe place to wait it out). And I nead another character that is a bit grey to make it harder to know who to trust.

                    As of rn, I was considering drawing. You said you were drawing like yesterday, what did you draw? But soon I’ve got to go help my mom put together a closet system. And work on a entry for a art contest thingy.

                            Ooh, fun!

                            As of right now I’m taking a break from BQ to listen to the storm coming in (I love the sound of thunder and rain). The first tournament is this weekend, and I’m behind, so I have a lot of work to do.

                              I might feel dumb after you answer this.

                              But what is BQ? 😂🤣

                                  @mineralizedwritings. @godlyfantasy12. @koshka. @elishavet-pidyon. @keilah-h. @lightoverdarkness6. @anyone-else-here-that-cares-to know

                                  So…though I have books that I’m more focused on, (like Freedom’s Fire, mostly, and Against All Odds) but…I do have a newer WIP idea, and I need to brainstorm, so…I thought, where’s a better place to do that then here in the WIP rant chat!? XD

                                  So…I have to say it’s another Historical Fiction novel, but not WWII or American Revolution, my main time periods. In fact, it’s a time period I haven’t written about.

                                  Victorian England.

                                  As of right now, the title is If Winter Doesn’t End, and I’m thinking, at least so far, that the main message will be Hope, with Identity being a big one too. 😉

                                  I have the board for it:

                                  It has two MC’s, Micah Easom & Leah Becker, who are the two in the board. 😉

                                  Micah is 17, Leah is 15.

                                  Leah is the daughter of a rich factory owner, Thurmond Becker, and a wealthy woman born in wealth, Abigail Becker. She is tutored at home and lives in a large mansion in England close to Buckingham Palace. Her father is such a good and rich factory owner he even has connections with the government/military, and always gets the best for his one and only little girl, his only child.

                                  Both of her parents love her very much…and…well…it goes without saying that Leah is spoiled.

                                  She is rich and proud of it, and has always been taught that the poor are stupid, filthy, and worthless, unless, of course, they are working.

                                  But…all of those things change when she meets Micah.

                                   

                                  Micah works in a factory and also is a pickpocket. He lives in the East End of London with his alcoholic and abusive father and his 6 younger siblings.

                                  He, his father, and all of his siblings, except for the 1-year-old boy, work to provide.

                                  His mother died in childbirth birthing Isaac, the 1-year-old baby boy, and Micah still misses her dearly, but since his siblings depend on him, he works extremely hard to provide.

                                  He works at Mr. Becker’s factory, and working there ends up leading him to meeting Mr. Becker’s one and only child, a girl only two years younger than Micah. Her name is Leah.

                                  Leah is spoiled…but she is also a Christian, and when Micah shows her his life, her eyes are opened to the realities of the poor.

                                  They quickly become friends, and Micah is grateful for her friendship.

                                  And they share a love of Charles Dickens’ novels, which is a bonus.

                                  But when tragedy hits the Easom family, Micah’s life is suddenly turned upside down, and he is thrown into a pit of grief, anger, and despair.

                                   

                                  Is there any such thing as Hope anymore?

                                   

                                  So…yeah. XD Any thoughts? Questions? I really wanna see everyone’s thoughts so far! 😉
