@joy-caroline – Yes! It really took me off guard, I wasn’t expecting even him to attack children like that, though it kind of makes sense, that’s his last way to get back in a meaningful way.

@lewilliams Haha that sounds like an awesome movie, I’d totally watch it! A fairy mafia, that’d be so interesting to see. The Godfather was such a good movie, the Irishman, similar, but less bloody and longer, also a fantastic movie!

@joy-caroline wow, yeah I remember you mentioning that book before but I didn’t realize it got as far in-depth as that!
@lewilliams – That sounds very interesting Elizabeth, I think I’ll check that out! 😀

<p style=”text-align: center;”>What’s been a foundational or just very helpful book you’ve read in your life and why?</p>
<p style=”text-align: left;”>One of the key foundational books for me personally is quite a weird one in relation to the question, but it’s honestly helped me more at the beginning than most of the proceeding books I’ve read.…[Read more] -

You want to be loved and liked by everyone but loved for the right reasons that glorify our Lord.
Sounds reasonable right? The problem is, how do you become someone who is genuinely likable, encouraging, and fun while not being a people pleaser? The good news is, it is not only possible but a good and noble thing to do.
I’m here to tell you that…[Read more]

@joy-caroline – Alright, I just finished the book and wow, I was certainly not expecting that ending!
SPOILERS for those who may not have read it.
I kind of figured Tom would lose the case just because of how the book was leading on to it, and then the heightened hopes during the court scene. I wasn’t expecting though how he tried to run at the…[Read more]

@joy-caroline – Oh boy, I was afraid of that, I’m getting toward the end and it all seems to be almost too good to be true. There were a lot of hints that the court case wouldn’t go in Tom’s favor (haven’t finished it yet so still no spoilers) so my prediction is that despite all the evidence in his favor, he will still get sentenced to death.

@abigail-m – Wow that’s awesome! I haven’t heard many songs in Russian, that sounds fascinating! I love how to tie the music to the mood and setting of the story, I’m sure it gets built in there if not consciously then subconsciously!

Hey everyone!
I’m curious to know if you all like to listen to music while writing and if so what kinds of music?
Coming from a large family there is almost always noise going on around me, so a long while back I got into the practice of drowning out the world, focusing on my writing, and listening to music!
My favorite genres for this are Jazz…[Read more]

@joy-caroline Wow! That’s a huge list! I’ll definitely be taking a look at these, thank you so much for sharing them! Why I love The Apostle Paul sounds very interesting by the title!
And yes, absolutely meant as a compliment! I see being weird as an awesome thing! There are too many not weird (dare I say normal) people out there already 🙂

That’s so cool that you’re interested in theology! It’s not a super common topic to be interested in! At the risk of sounding ill-spirited, you’re weird! 🙂

@kathleenramm – That’s quite impressive to exceed heightened expectations though I quite agree with you! I’m jealous that you have many people you can talk to about that and other books! Unfortunately, it seems like reading, in general, has been on a decline and it’s been difficult to find people wanting to discuss them, that’s partly why I’m…[Read more]

Yes, he is an awesome writer and I think you’d really enjoy Mere Christianity! Also, The Great Divorce was good too if you haven’t read it. Much more of an imaginative style and is one of those books you could keep reading over and over and make new connections each time…[Read more]
