“Hello there.”
Nice😁 What type is a Singeprime? Also, you’ve made me super curious about the MandaloreWing now.😄
Also, I think the Stewjon Four-Wing is my favourite type of Star Wars dragon — cause what’s not to like?

The Horse and His Boy is my favourite Narnia book😊.
Yeah, I haven’t learnt the Hebrew letters, but that ‘cha’ sound is really hard to make. Still, I like the feel it gives my language😁. Here’s a sample:
“Ûne li’hatevet Férījinar Sechol.”
(translation: I don’t speak Férījinarian (language))
“Ira? Hûsī hovet Ira?”

I’ll keep that in mind😉 *Resolves to get first five books out of library*
Thanks! I never knew that, about the early Slav federation. That’s so neat you’re using it in your book!😃

@keilah-h Brothers, am I right?😂 S’fine, my older brother loves to tease me about the name I made up in a Paper Mario fan fic of mine for a technological sphere that could be used like a super computer to destroy every world in the multi-world existence of my story — I called it…
DRUMROLL …
The S.D. Sphere.
Short of self-destruction sphere.…[Read more]

The û? Do you know which culture it comes from? Also, that’s epic you’re learning Hebrew!😃 I watched some beginners’ videos to learn the structure — in terms of it being an SVO language, like English. Unlike my main kingdom’s language, which is an SOV language, like Japanese.
I like the mix of cultures you’re using for Eirtan!…[Read more]

@joy-caroline oh bother! it ate my response again, now I can’t remember hahah
Anyhow, pretty much; if it works to make it into three, then do it. I made a 6 book series because I wanted to make a story about the lives of the people in my world. I ended book 1 with a cliffhanger that is (hopefully) suspenseful and emotional, and a major moment…[Read more]

Elfwing replied to the topic What's something you thought was necessary in writing, but actually wasn't? in the forum Topic of the Week 4 years, 6 months ago
For me it was that as in real life, the antagonist does not have to be a corrupt human or evil demon kind of thing; it could be anything.
Everyone has something in their life that is their ‘antagonist’, it may be a literal person being a pain in the butt, but it could be anything from financial problems to chronic pain to health…[Read more]

@lydia-s mwahahahah well… let me pull something up out of my 1000 pages of organized chaos called a series XD
hahaah my charries sound insane out of context, but I think the lines do sum them up pretty well XD
and I love that line of yours, the shotgun one. Made me laugh out loud and startle my cousin XD

Elfwing replied to the topic What's your biggest strength and weakness as a writer? in the forum Topic of the Week 4 years, 6 months ago
@kathleenramm I am so late to this topic, i haven’t been on here in over two weeks lol
Well my greatest strength? whew, I am not sure; probably making new worlds and ideas with every moment I am awake and not preoccupied with life, so… endless ideas that I can use in stories? XD
Weakness…
Well, I’d say Im weak in a lot of areas, but…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12 Lol.😂 Yeah, I always spoil everything to both my little sister, my big sister, and my big brother — and then pester them with feedback on any new plot developments I’ve thought of.😂

Trahia the Minstrel replied to the topic Characteristic Lines in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 6 months ago
@anatra23 Yes, I’m doing a round of beta reading for it now, and then I’ll probably do another couple of editing passes, maybe one more round of beta readers, before trying to pitch it to agents. It’s 180k words, though, so I’m gonna have to be creative and precise in order to sell them on it — YA fantasy isn’t normally that longὠ…[Read more]

Thanks!
Up to the 3rd/2 and a half/beta reader draft of my first book, and the first draft of my second book. The next three books are only in my head at this stage😅

Hi, @e-p-writes !
I’m Tráhia the Minstrel, and I think your goal is really cool! I’m glad to be the first person to welcome you to the Kingdom, especially since I only joined super recently myself 😊.
I also write YA fantasy with the hopes of shining God’s light into a genre that is mostly dark. I want clean reads for kids because as a homesc…[Read more]

@lydia-s — Thanks!
@anatra23 Thanks! Tbh, I didn’t really think about it much, I just made up the names lol😂 But when I was trying to figure out how to spell the names, I was listening to my older sister (who’s a linguist) talking about International Phonetic Alphabet’s pronunciation. She said in that, the vowel I generally makes an ‘ee’ sou…[Read more]

Hi @joy-caroline !
My book series is meant to be five books, but I hope that my advice can be helpful. The series as a whole is a huge overarching story, and the problem I set up in the first book (who will become the next king of my kingdom, and who is worthy to be said king) won’t be concluded until the end of the series. But each book has it…[Read more]
