Thank you 😀

Option 6 is my favorite! The title spirals make me think of space and that one looks the best! 🙂

@mkfairygirl yeah absolutely! It’s about building habits, routines, consistency, and a life foundation from which you can make very significant changes to the outside world! I’m primarily writing it to our own generation (gen-z) though all the principles apply to any stage of life 🙂
I spoke with the publisher yesterday and my goal is to get it…[Read more]

Thanks, Katherine for referring this to me!
I’m totally down for this, working on my first book (nonfiction) and I’ve already committed to completing it by the end of June
Every weekday morning 8:00 AM Pacific I do a sprint for 50 minutes. My daily allotment is a minimum of 500 words, though lately, I’ve been pulling in around…[Read more]

@kadotake Alright Grace… I’m about halfway through “What We Found In The Sofa and How It Saved the World” and…
It’s actually quite good and I’m really enjoying it! 😀
My expectations initially were that River, Freak, and Fiona would go into the couch and it is a whole other world within the sofa itself. Boy was I surprised! I’m at the part…[Read more]

Interesting thought! I guess there might be people who may enjoy that type of story, but I personally like to read books in order to get inside different kind’s of people’s heads, understand their thoughts, feelings, and worldview. I feel like a story that just tells you of events and dates is more like a history book.
But more than that, for thi…

YES! That was the best thing she could have possibly said!!
Wow really? You’re the first person I’ve met that has not only heard of it but actually read the big book of fairy tales!! They are weird, aren’t they! Super interesting though 😀
Oh man, I’ve got it on my list… I’m trusting you that I won’t regret it, just from the cover it…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting Hmm…I guess that kids books from a few decades ago are actually quite good? Is nothing new that I’ve learned, but I think that we don’t really have to read heavy material all the time; reading old books and exploring the themes they hold really can help shape what we write.
Eloquently put Linyang! There’s something about the o…[Read more]

Haha, maybe it was supposed to be left up to your imagination! I wonder if there are books out there written specifically in the fashion of sharing facts, leaving the emotions and interpretation up to you.

Yes, now that I think about it that was a big disappointment, it really seemed like Minerva would have played a bigger part, even toward the end of the series she doesn’t make an appearance, which is really too bad. I would have loved to see where that relationship went, though maybe it would have spun off and got sidetracked from the original…[Read more]

@kathleen Out of curiosity, how far are you through the Anne of Green Gables series, and what’s happening?
Also, I need new book suggestions! I’m about finished with a business book and want to read another fiction after it!

@scripter-of-kingdoms Haha no problem Grace! I was late in responding to this too so I guess we’re even.
That’s awesome! I love names in other languages that actually have meaning behind them, I’ve seen a lot of people (and don’t get me wrong, I’m guilty of this too) pick random cool phrases in other languages without even knowing what they mean!…[Read more]
