In Russian the words are ‘supposed’ to be spelled the way they sound, all except those thousands of exceptions… *sigh*. If you mean words from other languages, than yes.

BQ= Bible Quizzing. The lady I met is a quizzer Mom (her daughter is in Junior’s).

That makes more sense! I was thinking ‘Wow, she was doing…[Read more]

Ok, that didn’t work.

@trahia-the-minstrel

Your books sound good! How much do you have written, if I may ask?

@joy-caroline

Over Paul’s sister? I don’t usually read Biblical fiction (as it influences my memory) but I would read yours!

Well, I’m still writing my series, but I’ll try to answer your questions.

1. Pinpoint a central theme to plant throughout the series. Each book should deal with/breath this theme. Next, find at least three (or however…

Hi, @e-p-writes !

I’m Tráhia the Minstrel, and I think your goal is really cool! I’m glad to be the first person to welcome you to the Kingdom, especially since I only joined super recently myself 😊.

I also write YA fantasy with the hopes of shining God’s light into a genre that is mostly dark. I want clean reads for kids because as a homesc…[Read more]

@lydia-s — Thanks!

@anatra23  Thanks! Tbh, I didn’t really think about it much, I just made up the names lol😂 But when I was trying to figure out how to spell the names, I was listening to my older sister (who’s a linguist) talking about International Phonetic Alphabet’s pronunciation. She said in that, the vowel I generally makes an ‘ee’ sou…[Read more]

Hi @joy-caroline !

My book series is meant to be five books, but I hope that my advice can be helpful. The series as a whole is a huge overarching story, and the problem I set up in the first book (who will become the next king of my kingdom, and who is worthy to be said king) won’t be concluded until the end of the series. But each book has it…[Read more]

So, I’m trying to be brave enough to ask something on here. But before I do let me clarify; I do not think of myself as anything like a musician! I simply enjoy music, and wish to glorify God in any endeavors I make.

Now for my question:

I am teaching myself violin, and am struggling with my bowing. I can’t get a smooth transition between…[Read more]

Thanks! @beth-darlene

Small fuzzy things in general, with cats, foxes and squirrels at the top. I have a hard time deciding.

Thanks! @koshka

I make up my names, but based them on Spanish and Japanese pronunciation (the only two languages I’ve ever studied.) As a result, here’s a short list of some of my characters’ names:

Salvárdé, Méyárco, Iéto, Mérar, Shinarvé, Zarvéna, Yáléa, Lína, Riézon.

I use the Spanish rule that any time there’s an é with the flick over it, i…[Read more]

@trahia-the-minstrel

Did you make up your names onoyour own, or research them? They sound amazing!

@elishavet-pidyon — Thanks!

@godlyfantasy12 — Lol😂 I know, right?

Hi there! (I’m sorry I didn’t greet you earlier.)

I’m a homeschooler and book worm, and I probably talk out of turn a bit too much. I create all my worlds with no gun powder.

Question: What’s your favorite animal(s)?

Anyway, greetings and salutations! (And I totally agree, Fall is beautiful)

@trahia-the-mintrel

Thanks! I hope it turns out well. Your story sounds fascinating too.

Siblings: just have to love them for it.

Hey, @elanor ! Sorry for the late reply.

I made up the name — and then found out that one of my grandfather’s names was Trahier afterward.😂

She’s a side character who occasionally pops up and isn’t on anyone’s side — she’s a minstrel, and it’s bad business for minstrels to pick sides, according to her.

Tbh, she’s one of my favourite charact…[Read more]

I love your quotes and the sound of your story, @elishavet-pidyon !😊 Your story sounds interesting … I look forward to when you publish it!

And yours @issawriter7 !😁 Man, that first line grabbed me! And your title is really cool😉 I write YA fantasy as well, so I think that’s really cool. My book is called Dual Heirs.

Hi @lorelei-writer !
Nice to meet you!

I write medieval fantasy too! That’s so cool! And I’ve been homeschooled my whole life as well😊

Your description of your plot sounds interesting!

and I love the poem you posted, @elanor !

Hi, @ lydia-s !

I’m gonna jump in with lines from the favourite character in my book (he’s the best friend of one of my two protagonists):

Character name: Yusīñien Riavoné

“You can see people, M. That’s a gift. Tactics, statistics, the bigger picture … that’s what I’m good at. But you’re good at caring about individuals — all of them. That’s…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon

I understand. I was going to have a MIA, but when I couldn’t leave him gone I sacrificed his friend instead. (And now I’m having second thoughts again)
