Awww I love the name Bucky! I had a chicken named Bossy once, and I got her when she was just teeny tiny and over time I trained her to know her name, so when I called her she would come running! She was my favorite chicken, but unfortunately we had to move and Bossy stayed with the house because we couldn’t take our chickens cross country 🙁 But the new owner is super nice and loves them so much and is keeping in touch with us 🙂 !

"Would you kindly...?"
May 12, 2023 at 12:20 pm #142998Sure!! I don’t really know many people yet 😅🤔 But I can add some questions and answer 🙂
1. Sage green 😁
2. Dogs, wolves, and cats ?
3. Too many 🤣
4. I have a mini wip about a few characters traveling in …. A spaceship 🤣😂😅
And I’ve had this idea for a while, umm about a girl who has cancer and is probably going to die . . . So she has to learn to trust God for His plans. It’s kind of like a “would you live differently if you knew you were going to die?” kind of thing. It’s underdeveloped xD So I would love any feedback you guys have (would you read it, does it sound interesting, what would you want/expect from a book like that?)
Aannndddd you didn’t answer your own questions 😂 I feel kind of silly doing this since I just answered a bunch on the new forum 😅🤣 But I can add some more for other people
Dog or cat person?
Best piece of writing you’ve ever done (in your opinion)
What’s your favorite thing to write about and why?

May 12, 2023 at 12:53 pm #143001Oooh, fun!
Whats your favorite color?
Rose-gold. I know some people think it’s overrated, but I still like it. 😊
Favorite animal?
Dogs for sure. 😉 But ferrets come in close second.
Favorite book
I don’t think I have a favorite book, but I do have a few favorite series: The Wingfeather Saga, Christy Miller series, and Left Behind: The Kids.
Anything you would like to share like storys, WIPs?
I think most people know about my WIP, but I’ll go ahead and the share the blurb. It’s called the Endoxos Trilogy. Right now I’m working on the second draft of the first book.
Here’s the blurb for the whole trilogy:
They’ve been trapped inside The Orb for twenty years. It covered all of Aletheia. But it slowly closes in on the nation. The people stuck inside have no way to communicate to those outside. Families are separated. But the people have gotten used to The Orb. Until it is down to one district… only a few cities… Amidala Nadir is content with staying with her family in their corner of the district, but Everton Barlowe is determined to destroy the man who first placed The Orb over Aletheia. He joins a rebel group that is planning a coup on Bayron Len, the man who instituted the Orb. When the coup is performed successfully, a celebration is held throughout the city. But The Orb didn’t just disappear. Amidala was the only one who heard Len’s last words… and the truth is hidden in his riddle. Amidala and Everton understand enough of his puzzling statement that they know they have to take Len’s place. Len was holding back a much greater evil from corrupting their nation than they ever would have guessed. Will they be able to fulfill his role? Can they work together to push back the evil? They know what they must do, but it could cost their lives. Will they succeed? Or will the darkness subdue them all?
Vague, I know. XD I still haven’t written a blurb for each individual book, tho. 🙃
@hyrbidlore
I really like that book idea!! You should totally go for it! 😄 It’s definitely something I’d be interested in reading.

May 12, 2023 at 1:00 pm #143002Oh, and I need to answer the other questions. XD
Dog or cat person?
Dog person, 100% (though I don’t mind cats. I just don’t like the mean ones. XD)
Best piece of writing you’ve ever done (in your opinion)
Oof. I’m not sure, actually. 😂 I think my WFS fanfic short story was some of my best writing.
What’s your favorite thing to write about and why?
I love writing stories with complex characters and deep themes. I like writing complex characters, because I feel like when a story has a realistic character (because realistically, humans are complex), the story can be a lot more impactful. I like writing deep themes, because there are too many books out there that either have no theme, or a shallow theme. I want write themes that challenge the readers. I want to write themes that deal with hard questions which are not easily answered. I want to write themes that show the depravity of man, yet highlight God’s truth and His light that brings us out of our darkness. ✨

May 12, 2023 at 1:14 pm #143005Haha! I didn’t, whoops 😀
But here are my answers!
- Blue- All shades, especially the color of the Atlantic ocean
- I love guinea pigs and dogs!
- Yes, I agree. I have to many favorites 🙂
- Im the same as @esther-c 100%dog person, but I dont mind nice cats 🙂
- My best piece of writing is probably some poems I did or my current WIP.
- I love to write dystopian, thrillers and mysteries. I also write about characters of all ages.

May 12, 2023 at 1:19 pm #143007I’m totally in!
OK, so… my favorite colors would have also be sage green, but it’s also tied with icy blue… not exactly pale, but icy. (I did a WONDERFUL job explaining that XD)
Favorite animal: Definitely wolves. They’re the best. Aside from that, cats, because I have a Stripes and he’s awesome, lol.
Favorite book: I’m not really sure… but I normally read fantasy and sci-fi stuff, and Bryan Davis is my favorite author
As for my WIPs, my main one is Healer- it’s kind of complicated though. A bunch of different races I made up in a fantasy/sci-fi world, all thrown into a story about magic and freeing slaves etc, etc, etc… lol. Besides that I have one about a dragon kingdom (my favorite mythical btw, but phoenixes are close) where a young queen loses her memories (yeah a trope but some tropes are just so good XD).
Oh this question is so hard… dog or cat person. I love dogs (mostly cause they’re simliar to wolves) and cats, but my mom is allergic to dogs, so I’ll have to go with cats.
Best piece of writing? Wow I don’t even know… I’d like to say something in Healer, but that’s probably not true XD. So my answer is just going to be, I have no idea. 😅🤣
My favorite thing to write about… it was dragons for a while, but now it’s not so much of a ‘thing.’ But I like worldbuilding and dialogue a lot, so those are probably my favorite ‘parts’ of writing. I like description stuff to, and I love reading it, but it’s not exactly my strong suit XD. For themes I tend to do sacrifice and learning to trust a lot of the time.
And yes @esther-c your WFS fanfic was AMAZING! 😃😃😃 I enjoyed reading that so much XD
Alright, a couple more questions.
Favorite character you’ve ever written??
Favorite song? (Can be one you’ve written or one you’ve heard, either works)
Follow your heart, but take your brain with you.
May 12, 2023 at 1:23 pm #143008@acancello @esther-c @hybridlore
And, heh, to answer my own questions… XD I understand now.
Favorite character I’ve ever written… It would have to be probably one of the characters from healer. Honestly I can narrow it down to Rina and Dune I think, but I couldn’t decide between those two. I would give some background but they’re way complicated, but I have some of Healer’s chapters on KP if you want to know lol.
A few favorite songs are Gratitude by Brandon Lake, First Things First by Consumed by Fire, Silver by The Gray Havens, and Wolves of the Revolution by The Arcadian Wild. Basically anything by those groups XD
Follow your heart, but take your brain with you.

Ahh KP just ate the beginning of my post :/ I clicked on an email and it took me back 😩
Oof. I’m not sure, actually. 😂 I think my WFS fanfic short story was some of my best writing.
Waittt — (wingfeather saga right? I love those!!) Sounds awesome!! ☺️ Could I read it??
And yess!! Themes are amazing — I wish I was better at doing stuff like that — it’s not my strong point. Yet.
And your wip sounds amazing!!! Tag me if you post anything about it — is there a forum already?? 😉
Aww thanks!!!! ♥️ Sorry I know that was really, really vague 😆 But I haven’t really committed to it yet so don’t have much of a plot. However I haven’t been able to drop that idea so maybe I’m meant to write it . . . ?
Hah… after that .. I still didn’t answer my own questions 😂 (Sorry if that had sounded mean!)
So … I’m a dog and cat person. (Is that a thing? 😂). And @kyronthearcanin I have no idea either 😅
I think I stole the other question from someone on the new forum .. xD So I already answered it — but I love great plots — and spaceships 🤣😂
And I would love to see your poems!! (If you’re into sharing) I also love dystopia/sci Fi stories 😊♥️
(I did a WONDERFUL job explaining that XD)
XD
Stripes is the best name for a cat!!! And I love first things first!! So awesome ♥️ Sorry I have to go . . I’ll think about those questions and answer them later 🙂

May 12, 2023 at 1:49 pm #143020@kyronthearcanin Wolves of the Revolution is such a good song!! The lyrics and the harmonies are so cool (Sorry I get really excited when people like the same music as me)
