@esther-c Lol sometimes posting mood boards doesn’t work until I take a screenshot of it and post that instead. I don’t know why, but it works for me…
“Nothing says autumn like slurpin’ apples.” -my uncle
I have my general goals set really far out so I don’t stress about them. I don’t plan on getting my books published (if ever) until I’m perhaps like 23 or older. Mostly because I know I want it to be the best it can be, and it’ll take a lot of time to get there. I notice that some writing breakthroughs only happen in time, not in a bunch of writing (that does help though)
Yeah that’s good that you’re taking your time! A lot of young people (me included) want to quick get published and then later regret it because they didn’t take enough time to do it right. I get that, and I’m going to be careful about not rushing things, but it also helps me to set goals and have deadlines. At least to a certain extent. 😅
It feels like I’m taking backwards steps, but isn’t that just how learning happens?
Well, yes, and I wouldn’t say you’re going backwards, you’re just discovering new things and rebuilding. And that’s great that you’re figuring out more about Tauren’s conflict. Good work! When I figure out new things about my characters I like to think, “Well they finally let me in on that secret. Why didn’t they tell me sooner?” 😂 I love thinking about my character like their story already exists, “I’m just writing it down.”
I’ve got a bit of a mental list of things to learn I have to chip away at, so I’m a little overwhelmed and trying to make sure it stays fun for me. I recently got a book about making comics, it was really helpful. I realized after reading that the importance of body language, one more thing I have to learn how to draw 😭 I’m taking it slow and not making deadlines for myself because I don’t want it to loose fun, but yeah, that’s how writing is going for me.
Ugh overwhelmed I totally get that. I hope it doesn’t stop you though. That’s so great that you’re cultivating your drawing talent! I really hope it goes well for you, Min. Just take it one step at a time and focus on keeping it fun.
He must increase, but I must decrease.
Lol yeah! Goals are two sided like that XD
Thanks! Oh that’s such a cool perspective! Yep, I guess Tauren’s just telling me a little more each day.
Aww thanks so much girl! yep, I’m trying to keep it fun. 😊

@mineralizedwritings Sorry I didn’t reply yesterday! I was working outside XD
I’m doing pretty well!!! Life’s still busy, but God is good❤️
Sorry I didn’t reply yesterday either. XD I wasn’t able to get to it.
I’m doing pretty good! Thanks for asking. 😊
I just finished school yesterday, so I’m really glad about that!!! 😮💨😂🥳
I’ve also got a homeschool concert coming up on Friday (in which I am singing with a choir and playing in a band), so I’m ready to get that done and over with. XD
Plus, my weekly summer babysitting job starts tomorrow! I’m excited to start that. 😁😊

@lightoverdarkness6 @godlyfantasy12 @esther-c
That homeschool band sounds like fun Esther! I’d love to hear how your first day babysitting goes!
XD Freedom you are always working outside these days! Glad you’re doing well though! <3
Light don’t worry about it! If you’re not in the mood to rp that’s ok!
I’m doing alright! Busy, little nervous because I’m going on a college tour soon and it’s actually kinda serious, I might apply this fall! 😬
I’m seriously considering an art degree, but it’s hard to know the right choice.
"And so I left this world just as I had entered it. Confused."
Thank you 😅😊 I’m trying to get one written out rn before I go somewhere with my fam, but if I can’t get it done before then, I’ll try to write it later this afternoon.
Ooh that does sound serious. An art degree sounds really cool! I totally understand feeling nervous and anxious about things. I’ll be praying for you to have a good experience and to know which degree you want to pursue! 🙂

@mineralizedwritings Thanks Min!!!
Welllll…I mean…this chicken run needs to get finished! XD Besides…i’m getting some fresh air! Although I did get sunburned not long ago! 😅🤣 We have 6 chickens in the coop that can’t get outside yet because the run isn’t done yet, 6 more chickens (including Bucky!!!) that NEED to get in the coop who are in the garage waiting, lol…and 3 more that are in the house currently, lol. Lots of chickens…lots of chickens XD
I’ll be praying that God gives you wisdom to know what degree to pursue and that the tour goes very well, and that he gives you peace!!! 🙏❤️
I’d love to hear how your first day babysitting goes!
It went really well actually!! 😄 I really enjoyed it! The little boy I’m watching is so fun to play with. 🥰

That’s good!
I can imagine how nerve-wracking that could be. I’ll be praying for you and that God’s will for your future will be clear to you. ❤️
