@livgiordano I second what some other people said that I don’t think you can fully do this without mentioning Christ. That being said, I don’t think you need to fully explore a theme or provide a full message within a short story. As long as you explore several true aspects of the theme & message and are pointing readers in the right direction, I…[Read more]

@warrenluther04 I’d like to try Cole Avis.

@jenwriter17

No idea what I did to your tag

See above ^^

@jenwrier17

Sorry I meant to put them there but forgot 😕

Here they are! I’m glaad you enjoyed it 😊

Who was your favorite character? Why?

What were some of your favourite scenes? Why?

Were there any scenes you thought were poimtless or boring?

What did you think of the world-building? Was it clear and unique? What could I improve?

Were there…[Read more]

@seekjustice *fangirls* Just finished reading Stars Fill Infinity! I’ts been a really long time since I’ve read a book of this length in the time that I did. 👍Overall, I really enjoyed the whole thing, the theme, character, and plot. Looking forward to seeing the finished published book! What are your plans for publishing?😊

Were you still wanting…[Read more]

@sage-g
Sorry to invade your conversation (I like to stalk this thread haha) but I really like your picture! 😀 Good job!

@jane-maree Yes, well, certainly there can be exceptions, but that’s the general trend. With KP, I know that our emails were read more when we removed all images from them except the picture prompts. That’s with people telling us they liked the pictures in the emails.

I’d recommend split testing it if you’re unsure. Just send out some with images…[Read more]

@livgiordano I get your concern, I think the same thing a lot too. Actually on @mariposa ‘s blog (thetinytealtypewriter.com) she just did a post kinda about this that might help answer your questions.

@sam-kowal @livgiordano Okay, thank you!

@jane-maree thank you, I’ll look into these articles. I love K M Weiland’s website.☺

@sage-g  That’s so good!!

@clairec  Do you still want me to draw her? 🙂

@epicaddie2  Oh you poor thing…praying!

I’ll copy and paste the “requirements” I had written in my original topic:

Since they are for children’s books,  they can be simple or detailed, and I don’t really have a preference for black/white or color, except that color would probably sell better.  I don’t mind if the illustrations are a little cartoonish, though I like realistic better.…[Read more]

@seekjustice This is an interesting question but I am going to take a different approach from everyone else.

You know in the book of Revelation where it talks about those who were beheaded for Christ?  These are martyrs from the end times who were beheaded.  My mom’s theory is that futuristic executions will be beheadings (is that a word?) b…[Read more]

@itisastarrynight I’m glad you were able to make a decision.  I just wanted to let you know I am impressed and humbled by the fact that you spent so much time in prayer and scripture study to determine whether what you were writing was right.  It reminds me that I do not do that nearly often enough, but usually write what I think of.  So thanks fo…[Read more]

@itisastarrynight  Thank you! Yes, she is a believer 🙂

@aella Yeah, definitely speak in his terms. Don’t try to make him a writer or treat him like a writer, because that’s probably not where his focus should be. He won’t understand the way you think, so you have to understand the way he thinks which is. It doesn’t matter what you value about writing, find what he values and show him whatever ways…[Read more]

@anne-of-lothlorien @mariposa Actually, statistics show that people are far more likely to read an email that has just text. People say they like pictures, but when it actually comes down to it, they distrust emails with pictures in them. Of course, it depends on your niche, but I think it’s most likely your audience will pay more attention to you…[Read more]
