@kate-flournoy How many times do I have to tell you I’m not giving him up?

@Jane-Maree No, he mine, I tell you. If any of you want him to be happy, then let him be.

A few more collages:
This one is of a popup character in my novel, Fidelyon. His name is Cadoc and @kate-flournoy keeps trying to steal him from me.
This one is one of my side-kick characters, also from Fidelyon
And this is from another project completely.

Hope Ann replied to the topic Blog Post Word Count in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 2 months ago
@GracieGirl *peers in* *looks around* What everyone else is saying, I think. One of the large things it to make it easily readable, whatever the length. So lots of paragraph breaks and section breaks with headings and such.

@katherine I would say that is fine. Getting feedback is part of the writing process, so as long as they (obviously) aren’t changing it themselves and are just giving you their thoughts, then yes. That is fine. 🙂

@warrioroftherealm Two or three. The second title does sound darker than the third. It depends what angle you are going for.

@daeus love the ‘When fate seeks to destroy you, where can you turn?’ hook. Much better than the others. 😉

Legends of Light, @kate-flournoy? *scratches head* I may have heard something about them somewhere… XD
Welcome, @jessi-rae! Fairy tales retellings and fantasy are quite fun. I’ve tried my hand at futuristic/dystopian type stories too, but I mainly stick to fantasy. I don’t have very many female protagonists, though. That’s going to change one…[Read more]

@emily By all means. I want to hear your thoughts whether I tag you or not. We just have a tagging limit of 10 and I’m not on here enough to know everyone’s names… 😉
@jane-maree Yes, the to will work, if I have the ‘of nights’ instead of just ‘night’.
So… bringing hope to the blackest of nights
Or
Penning hope in the blackest of…[Read more]

Hope Ann replied to the topic Breathing hope… the puns are going to be too much fun in the forum Publishing & Platform 7 years, 3 months ago
@daughteroftheking Same here. My first thought was ‘darkest’ but then I switched to ‘blackest’ because I thought it sounded better.
@catwing Breathing hope into the blackest of nights. I like that.
@jess Hmmm… I like breathing. Penning could maybe work too. Penning hope in the blackest of nights. Eh… not sure. Thoughts?
The main thing is…[Read more]

So, I’ve been working on a tagline for my site, Writing in the Light. Well, it’s a tagline for me, really. Something I can put everywhere – on my blog, on my social media. Basically, something that sums up me and my writing very well. I came up with a line earlier that I really like:
Breathing hope into the blackest night.
It sums up what I…[Read more]

Hope Ann replied to the topic The Catwing Has Landed in the forum Start HERE 7 years, 3 months ago
@catwing You made it!!!! And I’m two days late to the party. Like normal. XD Still, it’s great to see you. I’ve always loved cats with wings. Anything with wings, really, except for some bugs. But cats, horses, dragons, wolves… I enslave *coughs* I mean, care for them all.

Hope Ann replied to the topic Christ Characters in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 3 months ago
@graciegirl Oooo, yes. *grins* *rubs hands* I definitely think a Christ figure can be a well-rounded character in His own right. Even a main character, if you do it right. Part of it depends on the depth of your allegory and if you are making a certain point or if you are presenting the gospel story itself. Even then, the point is to present…[Read more]

Hope Ann replied to the topic I'm concerned my story is a bad allegory in the forum Fantasy 7 years, 3 months ago
What everyone else said. I think switching names and such from the common terminology is cool. That being said, I have the Prince and Followers in one of my own books. But the religion is a backdrop for another theme and not a great part of the plot in and of itself. It depends a lot on your angle and point of your story. The larger a part…[Read more]

This is hilarious. And the dramatic fainting… XD
As for renaming my MC in each book, that is a great idea. *nods* I shall have to remember that. Does it work even if the MC is a woman?

I, and a few others here, are planning on attending this Indana Faith and Writing Conference in October. 🙂
And if Realm Makers is in PA next year, I am so going to try and go. I’ve been watching it for years, but Nevada was a bit far…

@northerner I would, but I already have more going on than I actually have time for. Besides which, I’m also entering the contest (If I get time to sit down and write). 🙁
