OH yes! I see what you’re saying about that. Thanks for pointing that out!
So my friend’s and I’s styles are different; she is constantly making a fantasy world and I am trying to make it more realistic. But this is not a setback, in fact, it balances us out perfectly! I would say the best thing we have done for co-writing is bought two notebooks; we each take one home and whenever a scene, character, plot, or story element of any kind comes up, we write it down in our notebook. Then every week or so we switch books and start the whole process over. This really helps to keep our juices flowing during the school year then when we have a break we review the ideas together.
The language I am most proficient in is French, however, I love the sounds and inner workings of Turkish and Saami.
As far as woodworking goes I will do anything from building furniture for around the house to wood burning. It is kinda hard to pinpoint but in the past, I have made jewelry, desks, sheet music holders, cabinets, wands (and other cosplay props), and a Talharpa, which is a Norwegian instrument.
I guess the only constant is that I just want to try everything!

1. I love Andrew Peterson and his Wingfeather saga, mostly because of the perspective he writes in, Jerry B. Jenkins and Tim LaHaye’s Left Behind-Kids for their character arcs, and The Hungar Games for the attention to detail and world building. (Just to name a few….)
2. I love to play Irish folk songs on my mandolin, and on piano, I play anything from the Getty’s hymns to movie compositions to classical music.
3. Cookies are great I have to pass on the gingerbread though unless it is being used for architecture. 😛
4. Marvel all the way, though there are few DC comics that I appreciate the layout of…
5. I like to draw scenes from my stories since the picture is so clear in my head already. As a beginner just copy! Copy pictures movie scenes anything. That try and draw objects from your mind, and if you run into something you cant then research photos of it from every angle and study it.
6. I always had a deep interest for how anything works. When I was little I used to take apart anything to see their inner workings old electronics, kitchenware, etc.. So I guess you could say becoming an engineer is almost a favor to my mother so I don’t have to take her toasters apart anymore….
7. I began two stories when I was younger but none of them stuck. I am currently working on a story of my own called “True Friends” which actually crosses over with my friend’s story just a little bit. Also once my world is done I hope to make a compilation of short stories within it.
