@rae

Wow! Yeah, I wouldn’t have guessed that! What is the origin of your last name?

Funny story… my grandma’s maiden name was probably originally said one way, since it’s not pronounced how it looks, but when her mom (or grandma? I can’t remember which) married into the family, she started pronouncing it a different way since she had a lisp. And…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Are we planning another one of these for this Saturday, or what’s the plan? 😉

@rae

I would say it, Eye-suhl, like the Eiffel Tower but with an S instead.

@ellette-giselle

Lolol! Well, then I’m saying it right. XD

@keilah-h

Oh no, I’ve been saying your name wrong too!! 😂 I thought it was Key-la. Where is your name in the Bible?

@ellette-giselle

I think I’m saying your name right? 😅 I know we already had a conversation about this. I feel confident about everything but the “Ette”. I might have the emphasis wrong, but oh well.

The trick to no one saying…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

It also reminds me of Dust! You should definitely check it out, if you’re going to write a Peter Pan retelling. I’ve never really been huge about Peter Pan (know the basic story, don’t think I’ve seen the movie or read it—most of my knowledge is from Dust 😅) but this sounds like an interesting twist on it!

@theducktator @esther-c @rae

Any updates??

@whalekeeper (I think you were the one who asked this? 😅)

No, I don’t normally get that emotional when I write. Honestly, I’m not that much of an emotional person in general though. I can only think of one scene recently (in the past few months) that made me (decently..?) emotional. That I wrote.

It’s probably more often with books and movie…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

Sure!!

@whalekeeper @loopylin

Are y’all SERIOUS?? That was soo confusing! XD “Whalekeeper tagged you in a status update…”

@esther-c

Wait wait wait waittttt…Was I not the first one to come up with that nickname???

*coughs*

You were!!!!

And I loved it so much that I decided to use it XDXDXD

…

It made me laugh when you said it and so I decided that this scene was the perfect one to use it in…lol!

@elishavet-pidyon @koshka

Apparently my feet changed that, which meant my story was changing itself. A terrifying thought indeed.

Dun … dun… DUN!!! XD

Nice segment. Interested to see where it goes next…

Okay everyone, I’m gonna share some of the races in my world!

Aquinos:

Aquinos have blue skin, hair, and eyes. They have the power to pull moisture out of the air and manipulate it. If there is no moisture in the air, they are helpless. They also tend to be easily dehydrated if they’ve used their power too much, but most of the time they c…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

YOU CHANGED YOUR NAME TOOOO

YOU’RE NOT A POTATO ANYMORE

*brain explodes*

I LOVE IT

@whalekeeper

AHHH YOU HOPPED ON THE TREND TOOOOO

I LOVE IT

You can still share those, since I would classify fantastical powers/abilities as magic on this topic. Basically we’re here to talk about any fantastical abilities, technically magic in-story or not. XD

Okay perfect!

I’m still fleshing those out a little as to why and how their powers w…[Read more]

Oh yeah, this is also a great article: https://booklaurie.com/blog/the-psychology-of-creating-characters/

@trailblazer

I love that story idea! It sounds super interesting, and I would totally pick it up. Elishavet had some great advice. Let’s see… what do I do for character arcs?

Honestly, it takes a while for these things to come together in my writing. I don’t sit down to write for the first time and already know all the details of my plot and c…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

Nice! Do you take offense when someone says/ask if your church is a denomination in a way? Just wondering!

No, I don’t think so. We don’t have many specific traditions besides Communion every couple weeks. My family has attended several different churches in the past few years because of moving around so often, so I wou…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009 @trailblazer @theducktator @stephie

Yeah, I rarely wear makeup either. Probably mostly for your reasons, Trailblazer. It’s just a lot of work and I honestly prefer the natural look on myself anyway (from what I’ve seen.)

Also… what’s with all the new names? XD

@rae

I hopped on the trend, obviously *flips hair*

And the signature is from How to Train Your Dragon (the episodes)
