I despise preachiness. Sometimes it’s okay in a show, where episodic storytelling demands clarity. Or if it’s self-aware. But overall, it’s obnoxious and nobody likes it! If you like preaching, study to be a preacher XD Plus it goes against the whole purpose of storytelling. You teach by example, not by just telling a child somet…

*ahem* Anyway…
Hey everyone!! I was just thinking about this topic recently and thought it’d be interesting to discuss. I know some of us have talked about stuff like this in the past, but here’s just one central topic to discuss every aspect of it!

Okiii, anyway, I’mma tell you all about Ev in as short a post as possible. 😁
On MBTI he’s an ESTP. He’s cocky (kinda prideful), he can be tender towards those he loves (but I guess those people aren’t in this so it doesn’t matter? XD), he’s imp…[Read more]

Oh and just to clarify, the words that I suggested should be taken out shouldn’t be taken out every time they’re in your prose. It’s just a good rule of thumb to follow, not some law. Just wanted to make that clear. 😊

Um, I don’t think so. I believe I was just pointing out some wording that I felt was a little awkward. My suggestion was a way to word it differently so that it would be smoother to read. As for the describing the forest, you could tap into his emotions a little bit then, but that wasn’t exactly what I was pointing out. I was just sug…[Read more]

Hi!!!! <3
Wellll I may or may not have gotten my heart broken (I hate teenage mood swings…ugh!) …so I've been trying to deal with that. (This guy I have liked on and off for three years asked my nemesis to prom (okay she's not a nemesis…haha!) and it's just been me feeling like I'm not good enough for him and that nobody will ever l…[Read more]

I can’t say I can relate to what you’re feeling, but from reading books and hearing real people’s stories, I can understand what you’re going through.

AHHHHH NOOOOOO
why do I do this to myself???
So you know the guy that I liked that I was talking about up there? (his name’s Jack) welllll…..his older brother Kai (he’s like 17 years old) has been super nice to me and we have so much in common and we’re good friends….AND I MAY OR MAY NOT BE GETTING FEELINGS FOR HIM….and I really…[Read more]
Awww, that’s so sweet!!! 🥰 Ahh!! I love that so much!! XD That’s fantastic. 😊 Although I’ve never been in a relationship, my only advice would be to keep it at friends for now. Because who knows, even if this doesn’t turn into anything serious in the future, you could still be great friends. Anddd… if you really do have feelings for him you could…[Read more]
Hahaha yeahhh! I know I’m not ready for a relationship now and I do want it to stay just friends for now. After all, I’m only 14!!! Ugh, I feel like I’m going to start getting a crush on him if I want to or not. And it’s awkward because my “friends” tease me about hopping between brothers….because Jack’s my age and Kai’s older….*sobbing*

Oh yeah, I almost forgot that! XD (I’m 14 too) But that’s good. 😊 Oh! One book you must absolutely read (I recommend it to as many girls as I can) is Praying for Your Future Husband by Robin Jones Gunn and Tricia Goyer. It’s amazing!!! It totally changed my perspective on how to pray for my future husband and relationships in general. If you can g…[Read more]

Don’t worry about nagging me. 😁 But I was literally thinking about your story this morning. I was like, “oh my goodness I haven’t read it in foreverrr!!” 😂 So I’m going to get to that today and hopefully this week too. I’m soooo sorry I haven’t read it in a while!!
It’s okay! I get it, life happens XD
