@aislinn-mollisong  It’s fantasy.  Sure thing (I’ll give you the long synopsis…)!

Jaclyn Fallows’ world has a history of turning upside down.

Like when she was suddenly able to create a small blue flame in the palm of her hand on her eighth birthday.  Or when she started having the same dream about the sister who vanished without a trac…[Read more]

@daeus Anything you can give me on swords, fighting styles, etc. will definitely be helpful.

@aislinn-mollisong  It’s called Substitute.  🙂

You didn’t tag me either, but…no. Elemental powers aren’t cliche. Now, the way you use them can be cliche, but as for the powers themselves, they’re a great way to spice up a character.

Everyone above me has already mentioned that, and everything else on this subject, so…I’ll shut up now.

@aislinn-mollisong  Editing my WIP.  My goal was to have the first draft finished by Christmas, and I did it!  So now I’m rewriting some of the beginning.  What about you?

@itisastarrynight So, I had that exact same question just a week ago.

And I started a blog. I had no idea what I was going to write about, but as soon as I started it, I started finding ideas.

To get a general idea of what bloggers blog about, I’d check out a bunch of blogs. There are some good ones on the page of my blog.

For me, I get the…[Read more]

@aislinn-mollisong  *waves arms wildly*  I am heeeere!!!!

@warrioroftherealm ehehe… well they better not be, because I’m using them. 😛

No, honestly, I think they are. But then, so is a lot of other stuff. I’m confident using ‘elementals’ in my work because the system, while it does incorporate elements, isn’t just about elements. In fact the element part is probably one of the least important bits.…[Read more]

@epicaddie2 Definitely!  I know what that’s like.  I had to fly without my parents last year (I was with my sisters so it wasn’t as bad), but I was a little nervous too.  🙂

@gh24682468999 I use Pexels.

@gh24682468999 this is my favorite image site: https://pixabay.com/

Like all image sites, it has some questionable content if you poke in the wrong corners, but overall it’s pretty good.

@daeus  Okay, so I just clicked on the link…and couldn’t stop reading.  This is magnificent!  I only made one comment at the end, but that’s just a suggestion.  🙂  Great work!

@medomfo  Welcome, welcome, and thrice welcome!  If you could live any place in the world, where would it be?

@radicallysurrendered This is a very interesting idea! I agree with Dekreel in that you need to make sure the plot is interesting as well. I’d definitely live in a place like that, yup. I love music so much. I think using the instruments as magic devices would be really cool.

@itisastarrynight Yes, this makes sense. Thanks! I’m beginning to see how I can make this work🙂

@jane-maree Yes, I’m am so bad at blurbs. I’ll keep working on it. Thank you for offering your help! ❤ I’ll keep working on it.

@notawriter At first it seems (and Taegan feels) that she’s all alone, but eventually one of the Guardians (Axel) becomes a good friend and another Guardian (Jada) does too, but hers happens more towards the end b…[Read more]

@itisastarrynight *tears rolls down face in gratitude* thank you, friend!

@rochellaine My friend was in dance too and she always thought it was strange that i hated performing, because she and all the other people she knew that were in dance loved it. I’m the same way; I have a hard time starting conversations

YES I LOVE GOATS! I want a horse…[Read more]
