Your welcome? XD

He causes a lot of trouble for sure, the two-faced sneak.

@keilah-h

I mean when one makes up a scenario using characters from a book in one’s head. It could be as simple as a character sketch, or as complicated as a serial novela. For example, say I made up a story about Oskar coming across a book that lead into another world, say middle-earth, but I never wrote it (maybe I never even told it to…[Read more]

@lana-blanchard

Welcome!

Really? Me too. (Okay, okay, 😉 )

That is difficult to answer.

My family has traveled all over the U. S., so I’ve seen some absolutely breathtaking places, and they’re all that way for different reasons.

Aha! *Idea dawns* The altar at a camp meeting or conference when God is moving. 🙂

But more fitting to the…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

Yeah, it was more like the sacrifice mirrors Jesus’, and Jammer mirrors mirroring that. (And why not agree in the most confusing way possible. 🙄😁)

@annabelle

I will echo your own words: WHY WOULD YOU KILL HER? XD

Bonifer Squoon or Maraly’s father, Weaver.

But Bonifer is a pretty complicated villain, so I have to give him…

@lydia-s

And I may or may not have skipped through the entire book just to see how a couple of favorite characters escaped a dark place and whether they used the key they had been given in life. (Pauses to read over that and enjoy it’s pointed vagueness.) And I may or may not have only skim read the book entirely. If so, I really need to go back…[Read more]

@annabelle

Welcome, and yes, that would be splendid!

@annabelle

Awwww, thank you!

I’m so, so, SO glad you liked it. Scenes like that can be hard to do right, (and we sure didn’t get it perfect) but they’re loads of fun to write. Plus, it makes it all the more exciting when others enjoy them too.

Go on and write more! I’m sure they’ll be beautiful in their own unique ways.

(If you ever have one…[Read more]

@annabelle

Ok, yeah, we got it! It’s a wee bit restricted, but access is easy to grant. 😉

@godlyfantasy12

Yes! That is the beauty of it – the gainful death, if you read the epigraph. It holds conviction and hope in the same hand.

I hope the doc helps! 😉 By the by, if you read the doc and want to comment, feel free! We, my sister and I, enjoy hearing feedback.

@annabelle

It’s really just a continuation of the epilogue that Peterson…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Ugh, yes! But still, it’s fun to wait and guess what will happen, even if you go mad from the anticipation. XD

@trahia-the-minstrel

It’s really good! I have heard that the first book can be a bit slow, and a friend of ours never really got hooked because of the gentle introduction. Like Keilah H. said, it gets very active!

Smalls is…[Read more]

@thelobsterlover

Hmm, forgiveness arcs…

First, huzzah for you book! Forgiveness is a powerful theme.

As for examples, I’ve heard that The Count of the Monte Cristo has an amazing forgiveness plot thingy, and Les Miserables has one too, if I’m not mistaken. Koshka already mentioned the others I can think of.

@keilah-h

Welcome! That’s interesting. Now I wonder how much my characters were influenced by books I’ve read. Probably quite a bit.

In Eirtan, my character’s features were actually inspired by the countries I was blending. For the series I’ve mainly ranted about on here, Aethel resulted in an attempt of mine to create a character with long,…[Read more]

@keilah-h

YAY! I’m so glad you liked it too!

Our family has enjoyed this series immensely. Not only were the books great, but we were guessing things that were very close to the actual outcome. (We got hooked before release of Ember Rising, so there was lots of room for speculation.) You know, The key the heirs hold. XD We read a little too muc…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Your characters sound (or look?) really good. You’re very creative!

@karissa-chmil

Good. I won’t worry then. 🙂

Yeah, my writing style shifts between very wordy to rather sparse.  Tain’t the best. Tweren’t the worst. XD

Hmm. I like my different series for their various reasons. The duology is the least worked out, so I’m only calling it a duology because I don’t know how much material it actually contains. I’m…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

Cool! Btw, would you consider ever starting a cover design business if you enjoy cover designing? I definitely wouldn’t because although making covers is fun, I’m not so good at it, lol.

I totally would, if I was decent by at it! XD Honestly, I don’t know if I’m good at it or not, and I’ve never tried digital drawing either, so the…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

Yeah, the characters are really fun. (By the way, I love the part in the end where the book offhandedly mentions his later use for the ring to avoid unwanted visitors. XD)

Sometime I’ll read them too. Whenever sometime is.

I also have trouble being satisfied with a cover idea(hopefully that just means I haven’t found the right…[Read more]

@karissa-chmil

Ok, sorry it’s taken a while for me to respond. Every time I’d sit down to write my reply, something (or most likely somebody) would call me away. Ugh!

Anyway, I’m back. (And it wasn’t too long of an absence)

Yes, they can be very stubborn, and thanks!

Oooh, a duology does sound fun. And that is really exciting! One of my series…[Read more]

@karissa-chmil

Thanks! and no, I haven’t written a series or a novel for that matter (I have attempted novels but couldn’t get them to tell me their plots. Finally, I have found some more honest books. Hopefully.).

Have you written any series and/or novels?

Evren and L sound like fun characters! I once tried to base a character off myself, but…[Read more]

@thelobsterlover

Hello! I’m Elishavet (And a bit late, sorry.). It’s good to meet you, and welcome to the forum!

You like G. K. Chesterton? His essays or his books? I love his essays, especially Twelve Men, The Dragon’s Grandmother, and the one about his pockets (the latter I quote not unfrequently.).

Anyway…. Questions.

What is your…[Read more]
