Stupendous points! Those are things I’ve thought about with a shudder. Some of our soldiers captured in Afghanistan were women. In one situation, she was the only one to survive because the medical staff of the place didn’t want to see her die.

Our Marine grandfather told my mother that she’d enlist “over his dead body.” Meanwhile, a…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

He has become his own character with his own separate struggles and personality. Plot wise? Yeah, it’s different.

If you mean you’re safe to start knocking them off…😎 Beware of repercussions. 😎

Just kidding. Do what is best for the story.

Oh goodness! I love that girl!!!

You know, she would be fun in a RP with my charrie…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

This is getting very interesting! I wonder what shenanigans will follow now they’re all together, yet I’m worried about who is getting struck next.

Amelia is a sweetheart with a spine of steel. I love when she’s on set.

One thing that caught me:

Joseph could still remember the way and rode eagerly along the streets until they…

@keilah-h

I’m glad it’s a good one. I’ve imagined telling it to little kids at reenactments (Which is to say, I’ve imagined being in reenactments).

Crater Base sounds interesting! Sibling built stories are the best.

You know, we played some elaborate games with our dolls, Littlest Petshops, and LEGOs, but I think our stuffed animals were the…[Read more]

@freed_and_redeemed @whalekeeper

I wrote a happy scene and a rather sad scene. However, the happy scene would makes very little sense to anyone reading the story, so I’m sharing the sad one. XD

There was too much silence in his room. Onnendel pushed himself up on his elbow to see over the mound of pillows. The sunlight that splashed across…[Read more]

I’ll take care of my 20 snowballs later, but I think I can get y’all’s two dusted off.

That is, if you want some backstory set up for our serial story that’s currently on pause. 🙂

@whalekeeper

For Narnia! 

*flings eight your way*

@whalekeeper

Wellllllllllllllllllllllllll…. XD

There was this truce thing going on.

I still have 10 snowballs available. I am saving them for instant defense against an attack.

@ellette-giselle

Eeek!

*is flattened*

XD Let’s see what we can do with this….

@stephie

Oh! I like them. The first is very lonesome/dreamy, and the second does well painting its picture.

@esther-c

Glad you like it! 😀

*ducks into fort*

*is defending herself with her arsenal of ten snowballs*

*and a golden tin of cookies*

@ellette-giselle

Hmmmmm.

Ok. I’m seeing a child soldier type. He’s got a past and he doesn’t care what he does because he doesn’t want to care. Yet he also feels he still has something to accomplish. He could be redeemable, or he could be an incredible thorn in the MC’s side. As for who he is… I don’t know. I think he was once connected to…[Read more]

@freed_and_redeemed

Thank you! It’s for my new WIP. (Which you probably already know. XD)

I like yours. His character is always interesting to see illustrated visually. The contrast of tender love for his children and the dark realities of his past right next to each other is incredible. ❤️ And the quites add hope. ☺️

@whalekeeper

That’s… Really bittersweet. It feels very much like it’s inside a person’s head. As the child who grew up going to nursing homes, I like it. The end makes it sweet.

@theshadow

I do. I also have friends who do not. One family I know celebrate a Christian version of Hanukkah instead, which is essentially celebrating how Jesus brought light into the world. The other doesn’t observe anything that could be confused with Winter Solstice and Yule. For me, I agree with @power . The holiday is what you make it.

My…[Read more]

@highscribeofaetherium @ellette-giselle

It’s fine with me.

@theducktator

That’s perfect. Making up stories for things can be really handy though. I have a whole legend for a dress I’m making that has me as the younger daughter of a Holiness Methodist preacher in the woods of Texas who was heavily influenced by the Cane Ridge revival. We’re lower of the middle class, so my second best dress is a little…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle Bwahahahaha

@liberty lol. I have 52 snowballs as of the last count.

*cackling*

@ellette-giselle Glad you liked it! This is probably the closest thing to a romance plot that I’ve written. (Instead of it being a small side plot.)

@stephie Since you apparently want to lay catch. *chases you*

OK…

*a giant cloud of snowballs puffs up from my…[Read more]

@esther-c @liberty @ellette-giselle

OK. There won’t be as many more scenes from this story that I’ll share, but here you go. Its 95o words should render me free from all residual snowball debts I owe.

Tada…………..

She laughed as she dusted her hands free of crumbs.

From the sounds coming from the nearby cotes, the other shepherds were…[Read more]
