Thank you so much, guys, for praying for my talk. It went really well, despite some last minute catastrophes. It was really good and I think it touched the heart of quite a few people. I was even told that my shy, introverted self has a gift for public speaking.

Anyway, I’m so…[Read more]

@annaberens

You write retellings!! Me too, I’m obsessed with them and your ideas sound really cool! I’ve never heard of the Firebird ballet, but it sounds intriguing. 🙂

Who are some authors you enjoy reading?

@notawriter

I definitely think you should write it 😀

I would say the difference between an adaption and a retelling is quite loose. But I think that you can see the difference in two versions of Sherlock Holmes. If you look at Basil Rathbone’s Sherlock movies, they tend to have the same plot as the stories and they’re based on and it doesn’t…[Read more]

@celticcailin I’ve received your email! And I will add in @Jess-Penrose too so she can give her feedback as well. 😉

@kaya-young Haha, your post reminded me of this….

@filewriterbase13x Yup! 🙂

@annaberens Me too! I especially love the song Evermore in the new Disney Beauty and the Beast movie. @daughteroftheking and I both cried when we heard it for the first time. (And my brother sat next to me say, “You know that Belle comes back, right? She comes back.”)

I haven’t actually written the retellings yet, but I would be happy to share…[Read more]

@annaberens Welcome! I LOVE Beauty and the Beast retellings, and your’s sound pretty unique! I have two of them in the back of my head myself. 😉

@daeus Awesome! Tagging some more people so they know about this!

@seekjustice @jane-maree @kaya-young @rochellaine @catwing @sam-kowal @alia

You know you’re a writer when a conversation with your family goes like this (after watching a well-written show):

My brothers: “I love this show! It’s so cool!”

Me: “Yes, the backstory is really awesome and their story/character arcs are very good. So is the character development. The writers of this show did a good job with the plot.”

My…[Read more]

@filewriterbase13x More KP stories?

YEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSS! 😛

If you have room for a steampunk horse, I’d love to be a character 🙂

@Celticcailin heyy so yes I do songwriting and composition and play half a dozen musical instruments and study musical theory. If you want me to check out lyrics and/or melody or whatever, feel free to add me to the email. 😉 I’d have to look over the song before I could give you much useful feedback though.…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Luckily, I had recorded it when I was practising, so I was able to make a transcript.

Thanks for praying, I have to go now 😀

@rochellaine

Oh, and I’m doing Romans 5:1-5 and talking about hope! Using books, of course, as illustrations.

@rochellaine

It’s annoying, but kind of funny at the same time. I’d just remarked to my little sister a little while before hand that the most romantic meetcute I could think of would be a girl getting her notes blown away and then gallantly collected by a gentleman. whereupon she would be so grateful she would fall in love…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Well, you remember how I’m doing a talk for my youth group tonight? Well, I had two handwritten copies of my notes and I was copying it out so that I could actually read it (because my handwriting is super terrible). Unfortunately, with the exception of notes numbers 1 and 2, the rest have blown away upon the autumn winds.

Which…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Are you around yet?? I’m in need of emotional encouragement.

@kaya-young Aw, thank you! 😀 I’m so glad you like Rin 🙂

@notawriter

Ah, no worries! Those things can be annoying!

Okay, that is the coolest idea I’ve heard in forever. I think you should write it if you want to! The thing about Robin Hood is that there are a lot of Robin Hood books but not so many retellings, as in making a purposeful (and shocking!) twist to the story. I can only think of one R…[Read more]

@ingridrd @notawriter Both of you could draw him, if you’d like! Thank you soooo much. 😀

I will be happy to draw a character in return, just let me know.
