Hey, guys! (Yes, I say this every time. Yes, I have sporadic long breaks. I apologize. Life is hard.)
I am currently writing, (yes, still the same thing.) so if any of you ladies, gentlemen, droids, or mythical beasts want to hang out, I am available for the time being.

@dekreel, As I said in the first post, I don’t write fantasy. 🙂 I go for the classic and the realistic, not the fantastical and grotesque. But then, that’s why I put the names out, right? So people could use them in ways I couldn’t!

Rochellaine replied to the topic Character Name Exchange in the forum Fantasy 8 years, 3 months ago
@dekreel, Ohhh, I don’t know! If she’s a person, probably. If she’s a normal animal like fox or tiger, probably again. If she’s a strange creature with a lizard’s body, a cat’s legs, and a peacock tail – probably not! 🙂 But I don’t care what you use it for, I just care what my own impressions of her are.

@dekreel Hooray for Kethra! 🙂
But I’m kind of worried that you’ll tell me who she’ll be, since I picture her as a person, but someone who likes to draw strange looking creatures might end up turning her into one…
Am I right? Or does Kethra have a chance of surviving in the human world? 🙂

@dekreel Manga is fine! I love that it’s in color. And the yellow background makes her hair pop so well! Thank you! I’ll be able to share yours soon.

@ingridrd I really like Mern. It sounds unusual, and would make a character unique, I think.
@daughteroftheking Driana is really pretty and I LOVE Larik! I hope someone writes a story with someone named Larik just so I can read it and relish in the name. 🙂
@dekreel Um, I’ve never met a Whovian, but my brother is a Trekker…

@notawriter Cool. What type of person do you think Jana Neader is, though? Is it a hero or heroine, or a sidekick or mentor? I think it could sound kind of forbidding and be a “dark lord” or something, but could also be sweet and sympathetic. 🙂
@dekreel Those are cool names! I like Airow, Dae, and Adric a lot! I was kind of thinking for t…[Read more]

Grace H. started the topic Short Story Characteristics in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 3 months ago
Hi everyone,
I know that a lot of the advice/articles on this website pertain to writing novels, from which I’ve learned a lot, but I was wondering if there are any principles or characteristics which apply specifically to writing short stories?
At the moment I’m working on a short story for my writing class (due soon) and it’s pretty solid so…[Read more]

@dekreel That sounds frustrating–sorry you’ve been running into that! Is there a recent forum thread you can point us to where you’ve had this issue? I’m wondering if for some reason the forum software thinks your comments are spam and is trying to remove them from public view.

@jenwriter17 Hello again! 😛
I love Irish music too! Do you like Celtic Women?
I really like Christian Contemporary and Christian Pop. So, I like a lot of Hillsong and Bethel worship songs. I also like Lauren Daigle, Britt Nicole, Newsboys, and some of The Afters’ songs.
@dekreel I really like some of Hollyn’s stuff as well. And I absolu…[Read more]

@dekreel, if you’re happy to. I’d love a few versions. 🙂

Jenna Terese replied to the topic Which Idea Should I Tackle Next? in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 8 years, 4 months ago
@skredder @seekjustice @dekreel Thank you all! I think all three will add interesting angles to the story, but I’m still planning to make sure, and doing more research ’cause I’ve never done more than one POV before (actually, I may have two a long time ago). Does KP have an article about that?

I’m personally not the greatest in consistently praying for others, to be honest. But I feel called to support others through prayer more often and so here I am. @epicaddie2 @clairec I will be praying for you guys! @dekreel And for your friend, too. Is she a believer?

No, I haven’t. I heave read Treasure Island, by the same author, though, and I quite enjoyed that. 🙂
@emily-d Hmmm…I have not read it either but I have read Treasure Island and the Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by him.
@emily-d AWWWWWWWWWWWW! I love your new profile pic.
And yes. I loooooooooove that book. Everything about it. I’ve actually been thinking I’d read it again soon. Did you just read it?
@emily-d Nope, I haven’t read it. What is it about? 🙂
No, I haven’t read this. Is it good? What’s it about?
@dragon-snapper Thanks! 😉 As for the book: IKR??? We did it for read aloud recently. Totally amazing. We also did The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde for read aloud, and that was really good too. I haven’t read Treasure Island yet.
@perfectfifths @ingridrd @mariposa @jenwriter17 *gasps* You have been…deprived!!!! It’s such an…[Read more]
Well, I enjoyed Treasure Island, so it’s likely I’ll enjoy this too. 🙂
Lol, you don’t have to tell a synopsis. I can look it up. 😉
I’ve read it. It’s a great book! One of my fave ‘classics’. Is it an old favourite of yours, or something you read more recently?
And I just noticed that you mentioned Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, which I haven’t read, but know of and a bit about. Would you recommend it? @emily-d
@clairec Hi! So you’re a classics fan? So am I!!! I looove classics. Yes, I would recommend Dr. Jekyll And Mr. Hyde. It’s interesting. I remember that I didn’t completely agree with the author’s worldview when we read it. But with the gift of discernment and your antennae up, it’s definitely worth reading! Any comments @ingridrd? 🙂
@jenwriter17 🙁 Hmm…how come I never thought of that? Oopsies 😛
@clairec Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde was awesome. When it started out, I thought I was going to hate it. I didn’t enjoy the beginning, but the end is so suspenseful and well-written…I won’t give anything away. 🙂 Also, the theme of God’s forgiveness is stunningly evident, something I at least rarely come across in stories today. Definitely…[Read more]
@ingridrd 😉 Thanks!
