I just wrote 3,000 words, but you STILL owe me Captain America!!!!!

where is he!!!??

😝

@linus-smallprint

Well, if I had a physical copy of the story, I would know. But I suppose this could spoil weather or not Aaron survives. I know this is a trilogy, but book two could pick up with Sabina or someone else.

that’s a possibility.

I thought for a split second that he would end the letter like this. That would have been blunt and h…

@theshadow

thank you!! I’m very glad it was helpful!!

@whalekeeper

switching a “damsel in distress” for a “man in distress.”

ABSOLUTELY NOT!

I don’t care how interesting that plot may be, I believe it’s plain wrong. It’s completely unbiblical and it’s against God’s design. A man who leaves a woman to fight for him/rescue him is no man. Just read the Bible and you will see God very clearly designe…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Even if I don’t use it here, my favorite trope is just a bunch of guys being an unlikely team. Which Keilah probably agrees with. 😂

I like writing guys best too. lol.

@whalekeeper

What are y’all’s thoughts on disregarding the male/female traditional tropes sometimes? Because I know religiously some people are against it. I like the idea of it, if it accomplishes interesting characterization, but I’m curious if other people approach it with more objectivity.

Do you mind explaining what you mean by this for the s…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Haha! Good to know.

So then, since you said something, does that mean your aren’t happy? Maybe a little stressed?

@keilah-h

Silence could also mean it’s so bad that you can’t even find something to say.

haha!!!

Oh, thank you so much!!!

@keilah-h

I agree.

@keilah-h

btw, yay! I got a reaction out of you!

lol.

@keilah-h

You’ll have to read more to find out. lol

Oh completely. In the actual book they are in a completely different font and are indented. KP wouldn’t let me indent them, so I guessed Italicizing would have to do.

@keilah-h

I agree with you…. but if you look at the old original damsel in distress stories, the girl was often a strong woman, but she was defeated and captured by a man, or held captive by evil in some way. (Totally reasonable.)

I think as women it can be easy to balk when we hear that term because of what society has been telling…[Read more]

@calyhuge

The damsel in distress?

*smiling and blinking hopefully*

I love him! Such a sad life. But a redeeming end.

@calyhuge

There are other cool characters. *says the person with 95% of their lead characters in the army.*

@freed_and_redeemed

You should come RP with Calyhuge, Keilah, Koshka, and Loopy. We’re moving pretty slow and keep dying every few days.

We’re in the school.

Walking down a hall.

I think.

We might not even have started walking.

@calyhuge.  @keilah-h

Oh he most likely will.

Actually, Brian will be lucky if he gets out of that one unscathed if he doesn’t give a warning.

lol.

Y’all are so mean! Are you trying to give poor Rory more PTSD flashbacks!?

lol

@freed_and_redeemed

YOu MADE JEZYK FOR ME!!!!!??????

I LOVE ITTTT!!!!!!

I’m crying! He was such a sweet character.

Thank you!!!!!!

Leo

He shifted Quincy higher on his shoulder. The kid sighed, tucking his fluffy blonde head against Leo’s neck. It looked like Quincy wasn’t waking up anytime soon.

“I’m Leo. I work here.” He smiled at Kate and Brian. “And this little monkey is Quincy, my kid brother.” Or at least, that’s what the…[Read more]

It was early morning when Aaron woke from a light but peaceful sleep. He had stayed up long into the night, praying and studying his Bible. He sat up and watched the dim light from the rising sun grow stronger as the sun climbed higher, throwing more light through the bars of the window.

Aaron picked up his journal…
