I’m not currently a his-fic writer, but I am a history nerd research addict, so history sort of works it’s way into my books. (Although most of my research has to do with historical reenacting/costuming, or medieval history) Anyway, I saw this topic and couldn’t pass it up. XD

That sounds like a good start! I like your character ideas,…[Read more]

@sarafini

Welcome to the kingdom! Around here I am Koshka, a writer of non-magical medieval-fantasy, random peotry, and other stuff. A lot of other stuff.

And I haven’t taken the time to read through the rest of this thread, so I may ask a question already made but anyway…

AIO!!!! Have you listened to Twenty-Eight hours? Ah, fan scrips. My…[Read more]

Here’s some more of my ellf- *cough* alve. 😉

Oh, and whenever I say dancing, I mean frolicking and skipping, if that makes sense.

Inglor

The trees whispered in a soft breeze. He brushed a leaf from his silver-gold hair then paused, watching it drift slowly to the ground before moving on.  The sunlight flickered merrily…[Read more]

@wilder-w

Oh no!!!! *Sob*

@wilder-w @freedomwriter76

We can hurry this a bit. =)

Amarrin

He held open the door as Ruben helped Hope into the back seat. It was a bit high.

The older boy, who he’d heard called Leo, ran a hand down the side of the…car. “Is this a…”

Almarrin smiled and climbed into the front. “Hold on, this isn’t a smooth ride.

It had been a few…[Read more]

All righty! This will finish out the day for my characters.

Winton

Most everyone had left, and Liora and Viktor were helping him put the place back in office format when the door opened and a tall man in combat uniform stepped in.

Winton…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

That’s fine! It does sound like him.

One thing though, the meetings are set for ever other school day, so Tuesday and Thursday. That’s so we can get some normal headed home for homework scenes in too. Of course, that can change if y’all want.

@wilder-w @freedomwriter76 @elishavet-pidyon  @godlyfantasy12

Question: Should Almarrin drive an old car, or a vehicle strangely remenecent of a humvee?

Almarrin

For a second he stared at the name, memorizing each letter. Then he made sure Hope was comfortable on the bench outside the nurse’s office. It was dark inside; apparently the nurse h…[Read more]

@sarafini

Good question! And I’m thrilled to echo @koshka and say ABSOLUTELY!

For example, Jessilyn Stewart Peaslee wrote retellings for both of those stories titles Ella and Finding Beauty in the Beast , both of which didn’t have magic. In fact, Ella is one of my favorite retellings of all time, and I’ve heard it as a recommendation for all t…[Read more]

@sarafini

Yes! There are many ways to retell a fairytale without manic. In fact, one of my favorite Cinderella retellings is based in a non-magical fantasy world. Fairytales aren’t about magic, even the slightly out there ones like Goose girl. Instead of using fairies or other magical people’s you can use real people. Stories told this way can…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

Wow! I never realized that either. Are you planning to self publish? (I’m not sure yet)

@esther-c

Greetings and Salutations! *Throws back the hood of my cloak* I’m called Elishavet around here, and although I bumped into you on another post thing I decided I’d officially say hi.

“Hi!”

Okay, so I’m a young Christian lass that mostly writes a half allegorical form of realistic medieval fantasy, (perhaps called rustic fantasy in some…[Read more]

Eira

Stories swirled the air, stirring up memories I’d long locked away. I stared down at the hands folded in my lap, tracing the feel of each bony knuckle. The fingers were long and talon like but much too white for a bird. I closed them tight.

Those things…I’d seen them happen. Sometimes…[Read more]

“But…does talking about it really help? Can it…can it really help others?” The bright green eyes were a bit watery, and a sigh slipped into Jocelyn’s voice. “I’ve…I’ve just…always wondered why I guess. Why things happen…”

She drifted off as if she’d lost her place. Grimm reac…[Read more]

@esther-c

Ooo! I like those! Isn’t it amazing how well a moldboard/collage can express a character’s personality?

@godlyfantasy12 @koshka @freedomwriter76 @keilah-h @wilder-w

Sure!

Winton

So… The boy’s were back, and with them a brother he hadn’t met before.

Actually, he had met Dietrich before, but they’d never had a conversation together. Most of the time, the boy had passed him without a glance, as did his older brother. Still, Winton had worried…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76

I love this twist with Dietrich! It’s awesome!!

Also, I’d forgotten about Leon’s father. 😭

He needs to meet Reúven and Viktor. Like, they don’t talk about it, but then when they realize Leon just lost his father… I just want to see that.

Eira

The story, I’d heard the like all her life. One child came in with a broken heart and left with a pain killer. What I hadn’t expected was the end. So I sit in mute silence as the impact of what was said flows over me.

The door flies open, shattering the peace of the room like glass. I…[Read more]

Yuck! Frida is a slimeball.

Winton

He hadn’t wished to have this well of an introduction to the kid’s aches, but then again, perhaps that wasn’t quite right.

He shook Joshua’s hand as the boys got ready to leave.

“Goodbye Dr. Winton. Thank you for doing this.” Joshua sighed and…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

Awwwww, Paxton and Nyx….
