@valtmy Those are great suggestions!  I really like the thought that some people might get irritated with her needing them to be with her all the time.

Her aunt and uncle actually don’t live on a ranch.  They live in a house in the middle of the city. (Las Vegas).  They are medium strong Christians, and very laid-back.  They either don’t have chi…[Read more]

Hey @amily-huddleston! Welcome to the site. 🙂 We love the work that Brett & Jaquelle are doing over at Y-Dubs! How many words are you into your current WIP?

@dekreel @warrenluther04 @perfectfifths @sage-g @mariposa @dragon-snapper

ah, finally getting my drawings posted y’all! So sorry for the delay.

Hi everyone!  I have a children’s picture book I’m planning to publish around the end of this month or the beginning of next month. (I am currently working with an illustrator.)  But though the story is complete, I didn’t pick a name for the protagonist, and I think it would be a smoother read if he had a name.

So here is a document with the s…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Yes, I think it works best as as scene that Chara remembers instead of putting it in the beginning. Maybe when Chara is at the “bottom of her self-reliance ability”, she can think about how stuff like this always happens to her and have her flashback to give an example. Then to make her background clear and make Chara appear as a…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 You know you’re a bookworm when you get so engrossed in a book that when a character shrugs, you shrug, and when a character bangs his head, you get a headache.

You know you’re a bookworm if when you were twelve if you were reading your mom had to physically shake you before you could hear her talking. (I trained myself out of that…[Read more]

@mariposa I’ll have to check those out. Spurgeon’s morning and evening devotional is so good; my whole family’s been reading it for years and we still get things out of it.

@jenwriter17 Yes, or a book.  My quote is from a popular girls book written about a Canadian island circa 1900…Does that give anyone clues?

@kaya-young That sounds like it came from a movie – but then, I really only watch classic movies, so how would I know? 😀  Is it from Disney?

@seekjustice Ah, yes. I love cover art.

@livgiordano @skredder Yes, good books end waaaaay too soon

@amily-huddleston Welcome! Brett Harris’ young writers community seems like an awesome place!

What are your favorite genres to read? Favorite books? Hobbies?

@seekjustice I’m so glad you liked it!

@amily-huddleston Hi!  Welcome!  You write realistic fiction?!! That’s wonderful!  So do I, almost exclusively, but I’ve rarely met anyone else who does.  Fantasy seems to be in style. 🙂

Do you write historical or contemporary?  I do a little of both, but mostly contemporary.

@rochellaine (I did get multiple emails, it was a bit confusing, but that’s okay!)

Oh thank you 🙂 That’s so sweet that you wrote a poem for me!

“And one by one you refuse to let them live” my poor characters. They never had a chance! 🙁

I really love it. I’m copying it into a word document and putting it in the Stars Fill Infinity folder.

@introvert_girl

Wow!! Thanks 😀 She looks pretty cool (and the tag actually did work the first time, I don’t know why it didn’t go green). Thank you so much!

@kaya-young

First of all, yes this is a cool idea! And I definitely think that there would be other people in your local area who would find it interesting! I’m not sure what it’s like in America, but in Australia local and family history is very big and a lot of people write books on it. They can be very interesting if they’re well written!

I…[Read more]

@amily-huddleston

And we add another Lord of the Rings fan to the kingdom!!! 🙂 *shakes your hand vigorously*. I love Faramir too, though I must say I like Frodo and Sam a little better. And Jean Valjean! You like Les Mis as well? We are officially friends now 🙂

Okay, I’ll stop being excited now. Let me think of a sensible question to ask. What…[Read more]

@gh24682468999 I’m an MK (or recent MK) I can look at it if you want

You know you’re a bookworm when you hate a book so much that you want to throw it across the room, but you restrain yourself because the cover is pretty and you don’t want to hurt it.

You know you’re a bookworm when you read a book in a day, and then wish you hadn’t read it so fast, because now there’s nothing else to read.
