Also I hope NaNo is going well! My sincerest admiration goes out to all those attempting that intrepid feat. 😀

@daisy-torres It’s been forever since I’ve read any of these, but the Dreamtreaders series by Wayne Thomas Batson (the main character who is very much from our world is one of three-ish people who can enter the dream world) and The Hundred Cupboards by N.D. Wilson (a portal fantasy set partially in Kansas) might fit the bill. Both authors are Ch…[Read more]

@scripter-of-kingdoms Whoop, whoop!!! This is so exciting!! I can’t promise I’ll enter, but best of luck to you regardless!

@kathleenramm Thank you for your lovely introductory post. You have such beautiful reasons to write (I care a lot about the whole understanding one’s self thing, if you can’t tell *points at my forum signature*) Also, I saw that this was the question of the week in the KP newsletter a few days ago and ended up having an hour-long conversation with…[Read more]

@beth-darlene Hello hello! I do indeed have two brothers named Ben and Thomas–do you know them from YWW?

@devastate-lasting

Eyyy, girl that’s awesome!! First of all, Joyce is an incredible name, and secondly, that color palette is so cool!! *thumbs up*

@scripter-of-kingdoms

Heya, girl! Sorry I missed this! *flips through calendar frantically* I need to make note of these things… *sheepish grin*

Anyways, thanks for checking in! *grins* As far as writing goes, things have been smooth, mostly. I’ve been outlining more of Echoes of Destiny, fleshing out and totally falling in love with the c…[Read more]

@relia

Thank you so much for this encouragement, girl! It’s always so helpful and comforting to hear things like that from other writers, especially when I’m going through a dry spot with my writing and feel like giving up. But this is exactly the kind of thing I needed to hear, and you worded all of that so well! Thank you! 😀 😀 😀

@godlyfantasy and @faith-q

Oops, missed you guys! Sorry!

@mkfairygirl @scripter-of-kingdoms @gracie-j @devastate-lasting

WHOA. THAT’S SO COOL. Congrats, y’all!! *pulls out the chocolate and streamers* That’s a great accomplishment and I’m already looking forward to seeing the anthology published!! That’s just so awesome!! 😀 😀 😀 The cover is *chef’s kiss* magnificento!

@abigail-m

*rushes into topic, breathless*

Phew! I’m SO terribly sorry I haven’t responded to you about this yet, but I have to say, now that I’ve read this… I LOVED THAT SO VERY MUCH!!! (And that’s an understatement!) Your descriptions were absolutely flawless, the characters were so lovable (I fell in love with Anton rightaway!) and there’s…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

*gasps* GIRLLL, thank you SO much!!!!!! Eeeek, it’s gorgeous and totally what I was going for!!! You did an absolutely incredible job, thank you!!! Also yes, of course! 🙂

@godlyfantasy12

Hey, girl! Thank you for tagging me! 🙂 I’d be honored if you did a cover for me, thanks for offering! <3 So totally take your time with this if you’re already busy, but here’s what I have in mind…

Author name: A.M. Williams

Book Title: Swan Song

Tagline: None

Color palette: Blue and grey primarily, white, purple, brown,…[Read more]

@kathleenramm

I know this is late *sheepish grin*, but the most recent book I finished was Rick Riordan’s The Sea of Monsters, the second book of the Percy Jackson series. And I have to say I’ve quickly fallen in love with the series and basically all it has to offer. The characters get more fleshed-out book-by-book and the aesthetic of it is…[Read more]

Also, I just realized that I made a mistake with the first picture of Anton! That was actually supposed to be Filip, though I suppose it could work either way. Anyways, I can re-illustrate his name and re-post it if you’d like! (I’m terribly scatterbrained when it comes to these things XD I’ll make that correction and re-send it!)

Anyways, I know they have their flaws (I’m still quite a novice, sorry about that), but it was still such an honor to use them for illustrations!! Again, I’m still hoping to draw some more, but in the meantime, I hope I got them at least somewhat right! 🙂 Please tell me if you need me to change anything or if I got anything wrong! 😀
