March 20, 2024 at 2:39 pm #178102hehe my brother called his pacifier “Ash” for some reason? He didn’t literally name it, he just said the word that way for some reason lol
Lol. I called them “passies” and for a time they were named after my cousins.
My co-op notes were full of cute dinosaur characters giving their opinions on logic and Spanish.
I love that. I wish I learned Spanish. I’m stuck with Latin. *sigh*
Ugh, so pictures aren’t working. 😢 I have memes.

I learned Latin through scientific names…….
yep we called them “passies” too lol. It was just funny how he apparently couldn’t pronounce that when he was one. (He’s 12 now)
i knowwwww I want to post pictures!!

March 20, 2024 at 2:46 pm #178104like my never-ending dragon character pictures, and this random comic book panel I found of Abraham Lincoln with a flamethrower (don’t ask, because the only context I’m giving is that I saw it and thought somebody might find that funny)

July 23, 2024 at 11:58 am #183478Oh my goodness, this is great. I have one.
You know your a writer when………… you have been doing bad things to your favorite character. Then, at Bible study they ask if anyone has a prayer request and you get ready to raise your hand with “Yes, I have a really good friend who is going through a really hard time. he/she–––––––” on the tip of your tongue when you suddenly realize that this friend of yours is not real, and if they were, they would need the police right away…..
I may or may not have almost done this…… several times.
Man is born for the fight, to be forged and molded into a sharper, finer, stronger image of God
July 23, 2024 at 12:01 pm #183480@ellette-giselle oh my stars and shadows, I have almost almost done that so many times!!!
"When in doubt, eat cheese crackers."-me to my charries who don't even know about cheese crackers
July 23, 2024 at 12:05 pm #183482I’ve never done that, but I’ve prayed for book characters many times.

Devote reddamus!July 23, 2024 at 12:55 pm #183514@theducktator I refuse to lol.
My brain is like “They’re not real! They don’t need it!” but every so often when my family’s praying together at night a name comes to my mind of a character who doesn’t exist haha
also I love your signature

July 23, 2024 at 12:58 pm #183520also here’s another “you know you’re a writer when…..”
….when you see someone else’s animation of a character you’re using in a fanfic. It has no words, but you can hear the character’s voice in your mind, narrating what’s happening to him, and you so want to comment on the video with the story that’s forming in your mind.
You also really want to give said character ALL THE HUGS because he has really gotten the short end of the stick on life (even in your fic)…….lol

July 24, 2024 at 5:33 pm #183648You know you’re a writer when you’re in the middle of typing up a fanfic and you have to look up “Will you die from a stab wound to the shoulder” and spend the next like 5 minutes reading what will or won’t kill you in the event you get stabbed there
I need my character to NOT die before the medic arrives lol

August 15, 2024 at 11:01 am #184506You know you’re a writer when you hear a particularly beautiful line in a song and think about it for hours.
