Hey! I love Harry Potter too! Nice to meet you! Around here, I’m known as Tráhia the Minstrel. I write clean YA Fantasy and am currently writing a no-magic medieval-esque story about two princes from different families who are enemies.

Have you ever read Brandon Sanderson’s books? I’m just curious.

Or Keeper of the…[Read more]

@kathleenramm

I’d either choose The Mysterious Benedict Society (cause both its major plot twists were spoiled for me before I read it😢) or the Mark of the Lion series by Francine Rivers. Because. The. End. Of. The. Second. Book. Was. So. GOOD.

Honestly, reading that for the first time was epic.

It’s funny. The books I go into with low exp…[Read more]

@valtmy

Things unchristian directors could do with my book … oh help.

They’d probably try to make out this beautiful, really close, boy-boy brother-like friendship I have into something else … if you know what I mean. And they’d probably cause conflict between that and another friendship/frenemyship one of the boys has with another main boy cha…[Read more]

@issawriter7

Thank you so much for your advice! I found it really encouraging.

@avacoulter

Thank you! I am so sorry I haven’t posted anything for like, 6 weeks … I’ve been in a real slump and kinda discouraged with everything about websites and my writing in general. It’s a but of hard spell for me … I’m at one of those places where I’m wonderi…[Read more]

Hi!! I’m back, but warning now, I may have to disappear again in the somewhat near future.

Zlatan and Vulkasin

The corridor was dark, the small oil lamp bright in his hand. Shadows swayed to it’s flickering flame.

Which way led to the brother and sister?

“Nyx,” Zlatan turned to the little fox. He…[Read more]

Viktor

They gained the out leading corridor, passing side halls with rapid succession. Soon there would be a narrow window and they’d have some light.

How he hungered for that light!

Their pursuer was still there, but much less frightening. He nearly scolded himself for bolting in the first place. Nearly.

As…[Read more]

@emilysf @godlyfantasy12 @koshka

Okay, so it deleted my response, I don’t know if the original will pop up later as well, but I’m going ahead and posting this, since I thankfully have the story part saved.

I also don’t know how well this one worked out, but here goes!

By the way, Milla sounds nice! Unfortunately, she has a talent for spooking…[Read more]

@emilysf @godlyfantasy12 @koshka

So, I’m not sure how well this one worked out, but here goes!

Milla sounds nice! Unfortunately, she seems to have a talent for spooking my charries. XD It’s not her fault though.

Viktor

They were close, so close. He could feel the draft from the approaching door.

Thankfully Alya hadn’t been injured in her…[Read more]

@kathleenramm

Hmm, that’s a hard question. There are so many books I’d like to momentarily forget the plot twists of so I could enjoy the surprise again. Especially when listening to these books with other people and trying not to spoil anything.

Just off the top of my head, though, I’d say the Wingfeather Saga, The Green Ember series, or the…[Read more]

@emilysf

Wow! That’s such a cool idea!

I wish I could help more but I just don’t know how! I feel like I would need to know more about the twins and how the actual magic system works with the whole “opposites and double gifted” thing.

I’m still trying to figure out how to display the themes in my book, but one of the best pieces of advice I’ve…[Read more]

@keilah-h @e-m-trepke @power

Yay! Another character! Can I have a brief description?? It sounds like maybe another character from the Star Wars universe, but I could be wrong..? Also, I like the mysterious ‘dark past’ vibes!

Once again, I mean no disrespect! I apologize for my character’s attitude, and I think you guys’ charries are awesome!…[Read more]

@emilysf

Well, I guess I shouldn’t say all the secrets, but hopefully more! There is supposed to be a tenth book that I think will be the last one…

Sophie isn’t my favorite either, but I definitely admire that she isn’t perfect. I think that makes her realistic. My favorite character is Keefe! 🙂

Yes! I’m finding out the more I build up a…[Read more]

@valtmy

At first I thought,”Romance, over described battles, messed up characters…”

Then I remembered my book’s cultures.

The first books MCs’ father would be shown as a bloodthirsty military captian, their mother a brutal taskmaster. The fact that this kingdom has a female home-guard would immediately warp into some feminist program. In…[Read more]

@valtmy

Ugh. Talk about the author’s/reader’s nightmare. I avoid watching any movies based off books I love – even if the author helped direct it! XD

For my first series, they would definitely make up some love interest characters, maybe even change one of my character’s backstory from having lost a sister to having lost a, well not a sister.…[Read more]

@madelyn

Yay!!! Allegory is one of my favorite genres!

Ok, what are some of my favorites…

A series my sister is writing, which is totally AWESOME!! She doesn’t have a set title yet, but whenever it gets published it will definitely be my go to recommend!

Narnia. Every time I read them I find another something deeper. The other works of his…[Read more]

@augustinaii

Well, I only have one moon, but it’s not exactly like ours, at least not for this far north Kingdom, and is a huge part of their culture. On the first full moon of the frozen months, she turns blood red (when she’s called Warrior), and the first full moon of warm weather she’s gold (Conqueror). These moons mark the two ‘seasons’ of…[Read more]

@madelyn

Allegories!!! (As opposed to allergies which is what auto correct wants to change it to)

First off, hooray! Go for it!

But now on to business. (Or perhaps better described as a long rambling of my thoughts)

What are my favorite allegories?

I like Biblical retelling type allegories, but as I don’t know what specific type you’re doing,…[Read more]

@koshka @emilysf @elishavet-pidyon

This is going to be interesting…

Viktor

They would not get his sister. He would not let them. They would suppose she was a truant slave. They would punish her for assisting intruders. They…

They would look past her Yartassite upbringing and see her Eirtanian blood.

But no, Alyona wouldn’t be the one to…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

That is sweet and good. I’m enjoying hearing about their story.

Oh, Paxton, Luna. I feel so sorry for you. Your author needs to give you both a big hug. (Pretends my charies have no trauma)
