ooh, I could talk about this for DAYS

I quite like shy, sensitive male characters who do a lot of introspecting. Bonus points if they’re traumatized/have a tragic past. Dark mysterious characters who push people away because they’re afraid of hurting them get me every time. Oh, and the smooth,…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

Wow! that’s really cool! I didn’t know that that had a name!

(breif sidenote on recent writing advice in my previous post: Many guys have strong senses of justice and are less concerned with the idea of killing someone if they deserve it than a girl).

@devastate-lasting

Sounds fascinating! what’s interpolation?

@daisy-torres

Sounds interesting!

@kathleenramm

That’s a great idea! I should try it! (might be what i need to improve my action scenes)

The most recent writing advice I got was from my husband (who actually hates writing, but it was sound) about how guys vs. girls talk. He…[Read more]

@r-m-archer

Haha, yeah pseudonyms are a great chance to have the name you always wished was yours lol.

Also, I really like the meaning behind your name archer! It constantly gives you the reminder of what you are aiming towards. Plus, it sounds cool which is a bonus.

@lavenderbookling

I 100% agree with you about it being so much easier being…[Read more]

@elanor

Why have I not done this questions yet?! Thanks so much for the idea!

@devastate-lasting

I’ve seen some other articles with a similar topic as the one you linked, but this one is by far the best. The questions are really interesting and unique, I’m totally going to use this. Thanks!

@trahia-the-minstrel

Ooo, good idea! I’m surprised I…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting Ah, that’s really cool! I hope that all goes well with your projects!

And wow, really? That’s good to know! Hopefully our paths cross. 😀

@devastate-lasting Thanks!

And wow, that’s really cool. Are you currently working on a writing project?

Well, I really would love to publish my projects someday. I’ve been thinking a lot about self-publishing, but I’m not sure.

@devastate-lasting Wow, that is rather coincidental! It is nice to “meet” you, Lin.

I mostly write nonfiction, specifically about my walk with the Lord and encouraging others in investing in their relationship with Him through my blog. I’ve also dabbled into fiction, particularly mysteries and realistic fiction, however, I never actually finished…[Read more]

@daisy-torres

I’ve never heard of The Lost Island of Tamarind, but now I’ll have to check it out after hearing what you said about it! I love stories with good characters and relationships.

@devastate-lasting

220? Manga or not that’s still a lot of reading.

Do you have any favorite Manga you read this year?

Most of the books you mention are…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

Thanks for the reccs anyway! My sister and I have actually already watched Totoro and Ponyo, she loved them, and I enjoyed them a lot more than I thought I would. They’re such cute movies!

@annabelle

Your book list is epic! And I love Viking Quest too — it’s like, my favourite book series ever! But my series of it has 5 books — have they changed it or something? My family’s series is the first editions.

@devastate-lasting

I’d love your recommendations for kid-friendly manga and/or anime. My younger sister wants to watch more anim…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting Thank youuu!!!

@anatra23

I just think he’s an awesome avenger and I love his character arc. He’s also just really funny (a pain sometimes) but has a good heart XD (pun intended) I also love the father/son relationship between him and Peter Parker. I just…I dunno lol. Do you not like Iron Man?

It is! Ahh you should totally watch it sometime! It’s heart…[Read more]

@anatra23

I knowww! Yeah, it’s definitely make it or break it for me too. Uhhh Marvel. XD you love it and you hate it.

Ugh, I know they’re all so good! I love Cap and Spiderman. Especially spiderman XD.

Ohhh my gosh Black Widow!!! I love her movie, it was even better than I expected it to be! Gahhh they’re all so good! I love black panther too…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

Good point, pen and paper is way more transportable.

Yes, I am the oldest of my siblings. My youngest brother is the only one that shares a lot of the same interests as me. The middle two siblings hate writing. My sister likes to read a little bit, but overall I connect best with my little brother. I forgot to ask: do you have…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting
Well, I still handwrite my stories too at first, then for every chapter I finish by hand I type it onto the computer. I know that’s a lot of extra work, but I just like the feel of the pen in my hand.

I have three siblings; one sister and two brothers. Yes, my brother and I are a great team. 🙂
