@anne-of-lothlorien You guys are amazing here. You could do a physical piece of artwork and then write a short piece about it.

@anne-of-lothlorien Random suggestion: do a sketch describing the character’s experience in Wonderland. It might help with the worries you have. 😉

I’ll remember that, Elizabeth: don’t make it easy! (Do you hear that, Grace? And you were just accepting my control of your life!). Sorry, awkward character interaction for a moment.

@graciegirl I played “Solitude” several years ago, but that’s it. I like to compose my own songs in the style of David Nevue and Brian Crain, and I also play a couple composed by Dario Marianelli for P&P (please don’t label me as a Austen nerd, or someone who wants to marry Mr. Darcy. He actually kind of bothers me, though I do enjoy Miss…[Read more]

Yes, @daeus, that was very helpful. Now I’m off to make sure my character has a goal as she’s struggling with shyness! And figure out how her goals will change as she changes.
@anne-of-lothlorien I love Stepping Heavenward! It’s on my “Top Ten Books I Recommend To Girls” list. Thank you too for the “reader feedback.” That reminds me…I have…[Read more]

Thanks, @daeus I actually just listened to your lesson on conflict two days ago, and so the added insight was helpful!
If I’m showing her thought process, and then how she acts, and how she changes, is that sufficient “conflict” (I’ll use quotes to show I’m not discussing warfare) for a book of this genre?

For example, the first part to my…[Read more]

That was fast! It’s easy to see you believe in the cause of the Kingdom! @daeus

I’m currently studying holiness in the book of 1 Peter. Something really eye-opening for me was discovering that grace to obey comes as we obey. We don’t wait around till we feel Christ-like, but obey right now, with the faith that God will work. I really desire…[Read more]

Bethany grins awkwardly first at @anne-of-lothlorien and then at @faithdk “Umm, I thinks I’ll try the spinning thing-thanks guys!” With 2.5 paces forward, a twirl, and a trip down four crumbled marble steps, she finally reaches the Volleyball Court. “Okay fellow Scribbling Serfs. I’m here. Where would a tall person be most helpful?”

Bethany searched the somewhat confusing signs pointing her to the volleyball court. “Hello? Anyone else know where we’re supposed to go?”

Okay, examples coming soon! Thanks! I’m thinking of attempting to start a collab board in addition to looking for some. Pinterest is a SM site I actually use. I know lots of young Christian fiction writers…

Courier Rabbit, depart! @michael-stanton @stewie-plotter

When can we start earning wooden coins? Should I just take a screenshot of my activity for now?

In the form we filled out to enter the School of Stewardry, the Overlord mentioned Pinterest sharing/and collaborative boards. What is the wooden coin equivalent for activity of that sort?

She’s still way too far away to help, and too scared of the enchanted cloak to move. So Bethany watches, frightened, while she sees her fellow serfs plunge from the tower. But then she remembers that pitcher of ice she’s still holding in her sweaty hand. Somehow that gives her the courage to move from her stupor. “Even if I can’t actually help…[Read more]

Trying to gather herself after her tumble, Bethany gazes up at the sky, where Audrey and Toast are being borne by a gentle wind towards…the tallest turret on the castle! “Wait! Jump off!” she yells. But can they even hear her voice, too breathy as always?

Bethany cowers in the dining car behind the carts of Coke, which, though she was positively parched, she would never drink. An inner voice scolds her: “Did you know what you were getting yourself into? You are not athletic at all! And what is all this talk of a Dark Overlord? Perhaps the other trolls can successfully ward off his anger with…[Read more]
