@radically-surrendered  Chuck Black’s books are great!  Have you ever played his board game?  One of my brothers got it for Christmas.

If you really would like my ideas or advice, do you want my email address?

If you are just being nice but would rather have your ideas yourself, that’s okay too, and I’ll just work on the many stories of my ow…[Read more]

@epicaddie2 Definitely!  I know what that’s like.  I had to fly without my parents last year (I was with my sisters so it wasn’t as bad), but I was a little nervous too.  🙂

@bella-d @dekreel I love those authors too!

H. Rider Haggard is an AMAZING Historical Fiction author.

Elizabeth Elliot – you should have heard of her husband Jim Elliot and Nate Saint, who were martyred by the Aucas, now called the Waorani.  She later went back and taught her husband’s murderers about Christ.

Douglas Bond – Another His-Fic…[Read more]

@bella-d Have you seen how we “tag” people by putting an “@” symbol before their name?  That sends an alert to our emails, so we can reply more easily.  🙂

@mnvalentine I actually don’t write fantasy. 🙂  That’s why I have trouble naming my genre.  I do a little bit of Historical Fiction, and I did some time travel, which is Science Fiction, but…[Read more]

In about two hours I’m leaving to go fly to Minnesota to visit a friend, but I’m flying alone, I haven’t flown alone before and I’m a bit nervous. Can you guys pray that I have a safe flight?

Also, I won’t be on here for a week because of the trip. 😉

@dekreel (by the way, I’m praying) @daughteroftheking @dragon-snapper @ingridrd @salome01w4g

@radically-surrendered Thanks, that makes sense.

I’d love to be a beta reader or just talk it over with you while the story progresses!  I have one request though…

Would it be possible for you to write it without using the words “magic”, “sorcery”, or anything of that nature for anyone on the good side?  “Power” would be an easy s…[Read more]

@bella-d

I love everything by Sir H. Rider Haggard, Elisabeth Elliot, Douglas Bond, and John J. Horn.

I’ve never heard of those books. What kind of stuff do they write?

Oh @mnvalentine, definitely a rite of passage!  I haven’t said it yet either, but you beat me to it.  🙂

@bella-d My absolute favorite genre is Historical Fiction!  I have had a bit of trouble writing in that genre, though.  I write mostly modern fiction (is there a name for that genre?).

Oh, and @skredder The themed wedding is a cool idea, but I think themes weren’t as popular back then as they are now, and it would only be 5-7 years after the era in the picture, so it would be more likely to seem out of style than themed, if they did such a thing. 🙂

@itisastarrynight Yessss, you’re right.  Not many people would notice.  But I w…[Read more]

@bella-d  Welcome to the bestest place in cyberspace!! I’m so glad you’re here! 😉

And now for my trademark question: What are your favorite books and TV shows?

@skredder Thanks for the ideas.  I just researched a bit of what you were suggesting, and found that in the 1930s, the Hollywood industry was secretly very pro-Nazism, but by 1941 they had completely flipped and supported the American end of the war very much.

In the 1950s there was the “Hollywood Blacklist” a figurative list which an actor,…[Read more]

Hey that’s really cool! Its so unique! 😀 You’re definitely off to a good start! Just keep asking yourself questions about the world/characters and I know you’ll come up with some great answers 😀 Also for piano it could be like a keyboard that has straps so they can wear it?? Like drums that marching band people carry? Idk haha.

@daeus  Okay, so I just clicked on the link…and couldn’t stop reading.  This is magnificent!  I only made one comment at the end, but that’s just a suggestion.  🙂  Great work!

@medomfo  Welcome, welcome, and thrice welcome!  If you could live any place in the world, where would it be?

@itisastarrynight @radically-surrendered @kylie @skredder Thanks so much for your help!  I actually used all your ideas to piece together something that might work:

First of all, turning down someone or breaking off an engagement would offend Aunt Maude, yes, but that wouldn’t really explain why Alice or the other girls wouldn’t like her.  Th…[Read more]

@radically-surrendered And, um, it sounds like so much fun to write… I thought I’d never ask this of anyone, but would you be at all interested in having a co-author?

I understand completely if you aren’t though. 🙂

Okay, I just finished watching it and I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!! Especially the music! I’ve been waiting for this to come out for the longest time, and the wait was totally worth it!
