@anyone-else-that-is-interested.

Okay, so I have started the rough draft for the first book in my Kingdom of Shadows series. (The one with Alwin and the rest) I do need help on the editing, but since it’s rough draft I’d just mostly like to hear all y’all’s thoughts on it.

By the way, untill I wrote it, I’d…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76

RIKER!!!!!

That’s awesome. And it makes so much sense. Having his father come from an abusive background is perfect. It will be soooo beautiful to see play out!

*On edge of seat*

(By the way, have you ever read To Love a Broken Winged Angel? by LaJoyce Martin? It doesn’t have anything to do with your setting, except for the…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76

Ok, so I only just got on here after a week, and here is this!!! Oh, I love these characters!

And the history nerd inside me is about to run up the walls.

Riker…. Leon…. Y’all both need a good hug. And God. Wow.

By the way, I love that Riker is a former SS. I’m so, so, SO glad Leon forgives him- for both their sakes I am…[Read more]

Oh, and yours are very good. You did so well making just a few words tell so much.

@starshiness

Oh yes! I do love seeing how much can be related in just a few words. It’s one thing that make poetry such a fun challenge.

(The baby shoes story is heartbreaking.)

I think some of my favorites are from the Bible (Like “God shall provide himself a sacrifice”. Can I get an amen?), but of course I didn’t write them.

I’ll have to get…[Read more]

@starshiness

Most fascinating! You display a very interesting thought.

AND the character it Describes is totally a favorite kind with me.

Good job!

*Looks back over it*

Woa! I just caught the last sentence. Ok, that’s neat.

As for critiques, I would say that the paragraph where you go into authenticity doesn’t quite fit the same flow as the…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12 (Wow! The world grows smaller every day. It was soooo good. I hope they were exceedingly blessed!) @emilysf @koshka

Finally, here it is!!

Viktor

The rest of the group wasn’t following. Or at least, not quickly, and not completely. Viktor gritted his teeth and darted a glance behind him.

He saw a nightmare.

His nightmare all…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

What?! Really?!

The one at Lufkin?

I don’t know if I can ask for names, but that’s awesome.

I had a response written, but it just got obliterated, so I shall to rewrite it in the next few minutes.

@godlyfantasy12

….and that was NOT one or two hours…and it’ll be a little longer till I get it in, but not as long as that was. 😂😬

Actually…

Yes! I’m at the Texas District Youth Camp. *Whoop*

It’s the last day though.

*Sniff*

But it’s been amazing!!!!!

(Hallelujah!)

@godlyfantasy12

Yes! I’m sorry it’s been a while. I’m at church camp, and haven’t had much time or energy left for the forum.

However, I’ll get something up in the next hour or two.

@godlyfantasy12

*I sand in stupefied wonder at the door. Such an intriguing hall, such high stacks of locked chests hiding who knows what secrets…*

What gave you this idea!?

I have so many spoilers, most of them back-stories for charries. Like the reason behind Viktor’s best friend’s loathing of Dorwinian boots. Or which certain MCs will end…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76

Oh, and thank you for sharing! It was good.

I’m often too hesitant to share any of my actual work, but I need to stop that. 😉

I hope your day continues to get better!

By the way, I totally get the whole tragic-story-makes-you-cry-even-though-you-wrote it thing. Especially when it’s based off a real event. I may have a few of…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76

Oof, that’s HARD! And well done wrenching out your reader’s heart strings. 😉

Your story sounds amazing, and from what I can tell from this clip, you’re writing over a time that is often ignored in YA historical fiction: the season of healing. Am I right?

By the way, if you are interested in the Jewish side of WWII, have you…[Read more]

@koshka (’cause I know this of all my WIPs is your favorite.) @joy-caroline @godlyfantasy12

I have made another random collage. This (submitted above) one is for Winifrith Aetheling, a MC from my Kingdom of Shadows series. I really liked how it turned out, especially since I didn’t envision something I’d hers being in that color scheme.

For…[Read more]

@lydia-s

Yes! It’s such fun.

You saw David?

Totally not jealous. (I say sarcastically, a small smile touching the corner of my mouth.)

We have been listening to the soundtrack/music for it as soon as it came out.😂

Thanks!

@kathleenramm

I LOVE world building, and my characters are very dear to me. I can spend hours on the first, and the second have been introduced to my friends and family as acqaintances of highest regard.

However, what I like best about both of them, is how they contain bits and pieces of real stories. Even my WIP that would not at all be…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76

First, my apologies for the belatedness of this response. Thankfully I haven’t forgotten that I didn’t reply yet, as has happened on occasion. (If I ever don’t reply to something for a looong time, that is probably exactly what happened.)

Medieval Fantasy has been quite the adventure to write! I don’t know if I’m good at it or…[Read more]

Greetings, @freedomwriter76 and welcome to KP!

I’m called Elishavet around here, and I mostly write realistic(no magic) medieval fantasy. I also write poetry and children’s church material.

While I have never actually written historical fiction, I love to read it. One thing I like about the genre I do write is that I can work in as many random…[Read more]
