Well, it’s been a while since I shared any art, but the recent LotR discussions inspired to try my hand at one of the few characters I pictured vividly.

Meet the Ranger Faramir as I met him. (Although the photo quality is bad. Sorry.)

@ellette-giselle

That’s a perfect illustration of their relationship. XD

You draw horses so well! I lost my courage for horses a while ago. They’re so big! XD Anyway, Tug is beautiful.

@ellette-giselle

I know!!! And it doesn’t make any sense why not, unless they just wanted to emphasize a smaller circle of awesome characters.

And if they wanted a sweet, visible romance, Faramir and Eowyn are so incredibly perfect. We just listened to that part last night and I was half laughing half crying. But maybe it’s a mercy because they…[Read more]

Also….

Leon is oddly like Samwise.(Or at least, last I knew of him he was.) While their plotlines are pretty completely different, they have similar strength and weaknesses. Both react in anger when those love are threatened, and both struggle with hopelessness, unbelief, and selfishness. The difference is in direction. Leon lets his hurt and…[Read more]

@freed_and_redeemed

Oh, funsies!

This is a great idea! XD Unfortunately, your characters are actually pretty unique, so finding a match here will take a bit.

@ellette-giselle

Faramir and Beregond! My sister and I have been re-read/listening to the trilogy again and I had forgotten how much I liked Beregond. Ever noticed the illustration of…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

IT’S WILL.

And Shadow! And the infamous mandola!

He actually looks a lot like I imagine him. Wow. That’s very good.

Yeah, I haven’t finished the series either. Mostly because he killed my favorite character in the end and it didn’t even make sense. He should have just let her be and maybe taken the chance to write a healthy…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Glad you like it! We shall try to post the next bit next week. 🙂

If anyone has any ideas, they can post them in this thread too. I think it’s unofficially dedicated to Kingdom Pen.

@keilah-h

I understand that. My sister and I found a folder full of old short stories from several years ago. My writing has come a long, long way, but at the same time I still have similar tendencies and character ideas.

I even illustrated the little things. XD I don’t do that now, but I intend to.

@ellette-giselle Finally got them in. ☝️ I found some typos last minute.

Prologue

The evening light was fading in my ‘office’. I pushed my makeshift desk (the coffee table)aside to click on a stand lamp. Its buttery yellow light softened the harsh blue of my computer. I ran my fingers over the keys again.

Where was Travenor? Ah yes. My dauntless hero had just stopped by the Emin Muil.

A slight stab of guilt dug int…[Read more]

@theducktator

There is good and bad to be said about the books. There are some stupendous characters, including a young Sherlock and his intrepid little sister. Often the plots are unique and full of twists, and the stories include tidbits of fascinating history like the Victorian Fan language knife fighting techniques.

Unfortunately, many of…[Read more]

@power

Marvelous.

🐵🌴🌄🍌

Ironically, most books that impact me now, are those that impacted me then. We read and enjoyed many books that I no longer remember because they went back to the library and apparently their impact ended there.

Long List of Books/Authors! Skip at will: Saundra Boynton; Little Women; American Girl series and Mysteries; Nancy Drew; The Trumpet of…[Read more]

Hey @esther-c !

Children’s literature is a precious genre!

Let’s see if I can figure out some answers from my own experience as a very young bookworm and aspiring writer of a children’s novel.

HEY Y’ALL! 

I shared a doc on the third page that’s a continuation my sister and I wrote of the epilogue. We do not mind sharing it with y’all, but as it is possible to see the different emails connected to it once acces is granted, I’m asking if y’all would please tag us in this thread when you send us a request. Otherwise, to protect you and…[Read more]

@loopylin

Loads of fun! There are so many possibilities! XD

My parents were a little concerned though.

Well, my art style for this story is fairly simple. I’m hoping to mix in some ink work, but so far it’s just line drawing with simple shading. The one picture I tried with his burns, I ended up mostly hiding it.

I’ll be somewhere in the…[Read more]

So I’ve been thinking…

Do y’all have any tips for drawing scars/disfigurements? 😁

I really love the fact that Viktor has serious burn scarring on his hands and back, but it’s been difficult to draw. Part of my problem is that I’m not sure that my drawings look like burn scars at all. The other part is trying to find the balance between…[Read more]
