Thank you! And I really liked yours, especially the one where Natasha insinuates they stole a car. XD

@queen_of_alvastia

Thank you! I’m so glad.

She and Picket meet in Ember Rising. We were totally doing the same until we met Wheazy. Just so you know. 😉 But Weezie and him are so sweet and fun together, and later on in the series, he really comes to depend on her, and her on him.

And yes, she’s a lot of trouble. XD

Yes! Helmer’s awesome.

I…[Read more]

I love Helmer… Almost everyone does.

(And this’ll be the last for now, since you’re probably all going, “What in the world??”)

Helmer: You took my words literally, didn’t you?

Picket(rocking cradle with foot): Of course, sir. You would have done the same for me.

Helmer stares at Picket then slowly shakes head: I could hardly have married your niece.

Because these two are hilarious together…

(Oh, and I can’t remember how to spell Louise’s name…)

Emma and Wheazy are working in hospital, Weazy sees Heather and Smalls working in another room.

Wheazy: Why don’t they get married?

Emma: They have to wait for his coronation.

Wheazy(snorts): Of course.

Emma: Well, you and Picket barely waited…

Oh! Those are awesome! I love them all.

So, these aren’t from my own books, but then, neither are some of yours, so…

Anyway, they’re basically the same, only I made them myself (eg. Not on a website). And they may depend on whether you’ve read the Green Ember series or not, but then, I know almost nothing…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76

Oof. That’s hard, but I love the way he shows Riker Jezyk’s medal. (Bookishly, you know.)

*Weeps inwardly*

Hans is worse than Mrs. Noris, than Miraz, than Ouster Will, than Vermilion, than Garten Longreader – actually no, those last two might actually be worse.

BUT THAT’S NO EXCUSE, MR. HANS.

Also, I really like the way…[Read more]

Viktor

That had been close. Viktor shuddered as the war hounds sniffed under the door.(by the way, these dogs are bit like very wolfish mastiffs with a bay between a wolf’s and a bloodhound’s. They are trained to hunt, fight, and kill, rather like the war dogs of the conquistadors.)

Then one of…[Read more]

@anatra23

It’s Calvin and Hobbes!!!

*Waves hi to the stuffed tiger*

Those comics are both hilarious and soo true!

So…

Here are some more.

This one is a Russian sharpshooter, around WWII. I’m afraid it’s not a super nice picture, but I’ve been struck by her youth and seriousness every time I see it. It was only yesterday that I realized it was good inspiration for a story.

@freedomwriter76

I love those! At first I was wondering, “why is that soldier in such a funny position?” Then I realized, “Oh! It’s a snowball fight!” XD

@lydia-s

Welcome, and thanks for letting us! (It was.)

@ava-blue

I love the fox!

@freedomwriter76

Quite right. *Sniffle*

They are really interesting. Middle grade stories with grown up themes, we loved them as soon as we started to read them. While not what one may call an allegory exactly, as the author said, they are true.

Historical fiction is wonderful! I like it, although I haven’t read much of it recently. I really…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76

That’s.

Horrible.

And so good. I love it.

And hate it. Really?! Why?! Riker!!!

It’s a very good thing that he survives and is saved. For both of you. 😉

Ah. Just in case no one has explained them,

They’re about rabbits with swords, or the helpless becoming not so helpless in their fight against destruction, whether it comes…[Read more]

@queen_of_alvastia

You’re reading Green Ember?!

MY PLACE BESIDE YOU…..

yeah, Koshka and I read that at the same time. Although, I read Ember Falls first. (We were too horrified that a certain sword bearing, arrow shooting, ember bearing bunny died in that book to read it for the longest time. XD) Now it’s my favorite.

Who’s your favorite…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I love it. So. Much.

@freedomwriter76

O.O

That is crazy, and some great character development. Now I’m VERY glad you’re redeeming him!

You had better not hurt Adah in any way.

*Puts on glasses*

I mean, if it turns out for the best….

Okay, I can’t talk, considering my own character deaths.

Thanks! (I think. 😉 ) It is. I’m going to have to include a bunch of…[Read more]

@queen_of_alvastia I’d love to share!

@freedomwriter76

So, a little backstory? Because I love their backstory! Which you probably don’t want to hear all the backstory, because it’s a lot. XD I’ll try to condense.

Their mother and father, Edria and Amicai, were married when he was 21 and she was 19. He was a Shepherd of Eirtan, and very…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76

Ahhhhh.

Now I’m really worried, but excited too!!!! What’s her name? Can we know? Is she in hiding? Does she survive?! Why is it sad? WHAT HAPPENS?

And I’ve brought up Edria, here’s the collage I made for her.

@freedomwriter76

Hmmm. Most interesting. I’m glad you’re redeeming Erich. What about the others? What happens to Leonard? Now I’m intrigued/worried. Ach!

But this is a really good idea, putting character pictures together.

(And I love the family ones, such sweet little kiddos.)

So…

Here’s one for Alyona and her sister and mother. (I can’t…[Read more]

*Sniff*

Yes, I’m crying. Yes, I’m ok. Why am I crying?

Y’all, what’s about to happen is a shadow of a scene I’m planning with for my book.

Yeah, I can’t really explain.

*Sniffle*

A strange ache beat inside Viktor’s heart. He missed his father, yes, but he was glad to have a…[Read more]
