Horse and His Boy, or the second half of The Last Battle.
Hmm, I never really thought about Charn much. I’m not totally sure about it’s allegorical significance either.
Now you have me thinking…
The Silver Chair was certainly one of our favorites, or rather Puddleglum was. (Upon being trapped underground: “Well, at least…[Read more]

AHHHH! These are awesome, really just plain wonderfully…aaggghhhh!!!
Ara’s working the Red Cross trains?! Oh. My. Wow.
I could hyperventilate.
(And totally didn’t go through the roof when I read you were writing Stalin age, like SERIOUSLY. O.O )

You’re welcome!

Oh, thank you so much! I’m SO thrilled you like it.
So, as a premise… I’m not great at writing premises. But I’ll try!
So, the story is a five books (currently) series beginning with two boys in different kinds of bondage. One, Alwin, is in the kind you see easily. But even if it’s easily identified, that doesn’t make it simple…[Read more]

Ohhhh…I have no idea how many books inspired mine. Honestly I think that each thing I read influences them in some way or another.
Some books which inspired me to write at all were, The Chronicles of Narnia, The Green Ember series, The Little Princess, Young Underground, The Mistmantle Chronicles, and our reading books for…[Read more]

Oh! I honestly can’t tell how many books inspired my writings, (you know how it is.) But there are definitely some key ones.
In all honesty, it was reading the Green Ember series that first made me seriously consider writing more than just a short story or two for school. That shows a lot in the story I started then. There…[Read more]

And is anyone ready to read the next chapters in The Institution? We have three more!
Chapter 2
Wilkins
Wilkins sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose. None of the words on this page made sense. In fact, none of the pages in this book did either.
The sunlight glowing in the window panes had matured, then…[Read more]

Oh, I love this new plot! And also how you are using elves as Jews. It’s soooo perfect.
(I hope that makes sense and isn’t weird. My sister and I are using elves in a half-allegorical way as children of Light and that belong to a better place.)
Oh, I like that! Honestly, the term “fire elf” reminds me of a…[Read more]

I’m on right now, although I’ll have to get off again and do another math lesson. (Homeschool… XD)
@koshka @freedomwriter76 Leon and Riker wouldwbe awesome to see seven years down the road! Only, I wouldn’t be able to use Viktor, because of spoilers. (Although if I did I could add in Reúven… Or Fritz! That’s a good…[Read more]

Ah, it depends. I am usually on in the mornings and evenings, but that’s about to change with college classes, so I don’t really know. Maybe 12:30-10:00 central, with plenty of breaks in between? I tend to check my email all day long.
As for weekends I try to stay off from Saturday evening through till whenever I get on…[Read more]

Hehe…yeah is was. I feel sorry for him too. He did get out early though, if not for happy reasons.
Oh November, your not inferior, and that’s exactly what Mikkel doesn’t want you to think!

Yay!
@elishavet-pidyon @godlyfantasy12
Mikkel
He helped November up and walked in silence for a bit, at a loss for what to say. At last he began.
“Yes and no. The King’s Mariners are a branch the royal military trained in land, sea, and aerial combat. And, ah, well I’m…”
He sighed and ran a hand through his hair.
“As…[Read more]

Viktor
Thank the Lord, Riker and November had been able to talk, and even as Viktor sensed something deeper in some places, he decided not to stir the waters anymore than need be.
And now…
November was embarrassed and frightened. Viktor knew how he felt.
November was also thinking, remembering, a…[Read more]

That’s horrible…ly good?
Okay, it’s awesome and I love the way each of these twists are really possible inside the character, but…

Although, the foreboding hints about Ara are not unnoticed, by the way.
And I hope you aren’t killing her, but if you…[Read more]

Alrighty!
Mikkel
November’s hands trembled slightly as he held them out, his eyes suddenly staring off into somewhere else.
Mikkel took those hands, careful not to cause more discomfort than was nesesary. He needed to talk, to say something to help pull the lad out of that nightmare.…[Read more]

WHAT?!
I loved it and now this?!
But now I’m very curious, to be honest. XD
I don’t know who my favorite is, because they’re all very imagination sparking and I love them.
I think I like Esther’s picture the best, but once again, I don’t know!! XD
