That sounds really cool! I’m gonna have to check into this!
Most (well all) my characters are Russian, although Lila originated more from eastern Prussia. The only reason she is deeper in the tundra regions is because Artur (the main villain) kidnapped her, so the MC would have to take her in. Because the MC lives alone and prefers it that way, but wouldn’t turn away some one who needed her. Thence Artur figured it would cause a hinderance/weakness for the MC while he carried out his plan. And added to that, Lila only has one leg and in a land where the fittest survive… well, lots of obstacles.
Anyway… I think I got my Writers Rant out for the night XD
Aw, okay, see you later! I love doing writing together too! 🙂

Ah, there goes my timer. I officially have the second draft of my first chapter now. My leave off is:
Outside, the wind swirled high through the trees and across the sky, around the lake and past a figure receding quickly into the forest and into the shelter of the night.
How about you?

Wow, congrats!! I have 3,202 words in my outline now!
I love that last line. It was kind of creepy. *shivers*
@joy-caroline
Thanks:) And *high fives* that’s awesome!
Yeah, it does sound kind of creepy, most of my leave off lines seem that way lately, looking back. But most of the recent leave offs are about the villain (since I’ve been building those scenes this past week).
Here is a line a few paragraphs before that one:
She loved to hear the ice sing, she sheathed her sword and followed the whimsical sounds down to the lake in the forest that reflected the piece of moon.

Well, it’s a good thing your villain is creepy. That’s often a very good trait in a villain, of course!
My lines are boring because it’s an outline, so I’m basically just telling myself the story. But here’s one I thought was kind of interesting, I guess more so than the others: Someone in the crowd comments that there has not been such a commotion since Pilate brought Jesus here.
@joy-caroline
I love that line! It made me interested in the scene.

Thanks! It’s actually the scene from Acts 21:27-36, when Paul is beaten to the point of death in front of the Jerusalem Temple. It’s quite an intense scene, needless to say.
@joy-caroline
I can imagine.
I just looked at my notifications and saw your question about Andy Griffith. I completely agree, I wish Andy had married Peggy too. Sigh… oh well. I liked Ellie Walker also, but I still think he should’ve married Peggy.

YES! Someone who agrees! I would have loved it if he’d married Peggy. Helen seemed kind of controlling and short-tempered, in my opinion.
