I can chat for about 30 minutes if anyone is around

@seekjustice, @rochellaine, @jenwriter17

Yes!!! #bringthemback2021 need to happen!

(Also, I kinda want to reread them again. But I don’t want to go through that heartbreak again)

This is SO TRUE and so needed in the Christian world today. People can get so stuck on labels and being prejudice against people who believe a little different. But if we all worship the same Father, Son, & Holy Spirit then why do the other things matter so much?

Love this, @joy-caroline !

This is a great topic! I struggled a bit with just following every single tip and piece of advice I’d heard too. It took me a while to learn that I will love writing more and create better stories if I made my own creative process. I think I can say that I’ve overcome this, but I still struggle a lot with comparing myself to others/their writing…[Read more]

@rochellaine

😀 @alia suggested that and she also created the hashtag #bringthemback2021 for Zac and Jonas XD

@godlyfantasy12 Ahaha thanks for your two cents. I would say that it would partially be because of myself and my expectations for myself (I had pretty much decided that this was gonna be the job route that I was gonna take since I was twelve or thirteen, before I started writing) and partially the environment I was raised in (practicality and…[Read more]

@seekjustice

Hahaha

That’s hilarious 😀

@larchness Ah thank you! It’s taking a really long time but I’ll be glad to finish it one day!

Oh…well…if we’re all pouring out some emotions here…

Sometimes I grow really sad when I think about my future, and how I’m not going to become a full-time author. It doesn’t support, yeah, yeah…

Because recently I’ve discovered how much I love writing. And when you apply for colleges they tell you to do what you love, but honestly, for…[Read more]

@joy-caroline Ahh yeah brainstorming is super fun! Good luck!

@joy-caroline Ah okay! Maybe you can make like the mom have a scene where she’s thinking about her kids or something and sees the brother and thinks that he’d be the same age as her own son…or something…maybe he looks like her husband…something like that…

@larchness My fantasy saga consists of thirteen series that are interconnected, so I think it fits pretty nicely XD

@writerlexi1216 Lennox would rather walk on his hands.

@nova21 Laurel would choose city.

Would your character rather be a solo artist or in a band?

@joy-caroline Did you say never find out? Oof…uh…definitely physical features should be key. And maybe mannerisms. Other than that I’m not sure…are their parents still alive?

@joy-caroline Perhaps do some sort of prologue at the beginning of your book? Or you could drop subtle details, maybe like similar mannerisms and physical traits that your reader will catch but your characters won’t.

@e-k-seaver Ahh nice!

@godlyfantasy12 Ooh nice! I’ll have to check out Canva’s bookmark feature sometime. (Not that I use bookmarks often…I use whatever piece of paper is closest to me lol)

@godlyfantasy12 These look really great! How did you make them?

@abigail-m I really want to do some research on Norway. Hopefully I’ll get an idea while learning about it XD And I’ll definitely ask you if/when I ever have questions about ancient Russia. Thanks!

Also, I second @abigail-m and her suggestion of Hillsdale’s online courses. THEY ARE AMAZING. I’ve already gone through a few (the Genesis one is incredible!!) and I’ve even been able to get some high school credit for it.
