@graceofspades2017 Yes, yes, Aslan must be first. I know a family with a lot of little boys who are reading the Chronicles aloud for the first time. The boys call the books the Aslan books. They’re not too far from the truth, actually.
Eustace is probably my favorite other character too-I just love his arc so much.

@graceofspades2017 Greetings, fellow scribbler! I was confused by the term “bestistest” when I first introduced myself a few weeks ago. You’ll soon agree with everyone that the Kingdom really is one of the best places on the Internet. 🙂
What is your favorite character in Narnia?

@michael-stanton @stewie-plotter When should we send in our Spreadings for the first quarter?

For some reason, I didn’t see this until today! I’m sorry @michael-stanton I think you should send the rest of the stewards an email to be sure they know about this new page. Or @stewie-plotter can?

I actually haven’t had time to watch these through all the way, though I watched part of the first one, which was thought-provoking and helpful.

I…[Read more]

@michael-stanton @stewie-plotter In addition to the questions about sharing about KP at my homeschool group (my idea has since developed to sending out an email and then later in August trying to see if I can announce it at our support group) I have gained access to a new collaborative board! I was supposed show what I’ve been doing, so here you…[Read more]

@michael-stanton @stewie-plotter I had a new idea. My family’s homeschool group is basically on break for the summer, but in August, we start up. Could I earn coins by sharing about KP at one of their support groups for parents? We have about eighty-four families represented, and by next year, we’ll probably have more.

And if I was to make an…[Read more]

@daeus @aratrea @kate-flournoy @ceaseless-prayer Thanks for the feedback. The gist of what ya’ll said was kind of my gut feeling, but I didn’t want to run with it on a story this important to me. So thank you, because I really needed some sound thoughts on this.

Now I think I’ll have to go develop my parents. (Why is that so exciting?!)

Three babies! How special. I’m glad you tagged me @anne-of-lothlorien or I wouldn’t have known! I’ll pray for you and your root canal. And the babies!

@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]
