So I was just reading through y’all’s conversation, and you talked so much about Sam and Frodo…

Ahhhh!!!! Those two are my absolute favorite favorite characters of LotR. Admittedly I’ve only read the books, but that means I have a closer appreciation for what the author intended, right?

Sam is so wonderful, and I…[Read more]

It’s beautiful, and slightly foreboding. I love it!

@lightoverdarkness6 @felicity @freedomwriter76 @theloonyone @mineralizedwritings

@felicity, the thing that Len gave to Amidala is definitely important. Sometimes I actually forget to mention it in future chapters 😅, but it will play a big role in the future! 😏

Next two chapters! (I already have like twenty written, so that’s why I’m getting the…[Read more]

@sarafini @godlyfantasy12

Yeah. I was just thinking Ev would try to make her jealous, but now that I think about it, they’d then have to have a conversation about it. That may kind of ruin the whole dynamic in my head for the actual book. 😅
I may just have him act like that with any girl, cause I’m playing around with that facet of his…[Read more]

@felicity

I know right? Sam is the absolute hero!!!!! (I mean, I guess Frodo went through a lot, so, I’ll give him a little credit.

Yes!! He is! “I can’t carry it for you…but I can carry you!” I LOVE that part. So sweet😢🥰. Yeah, I’m sorry Frodo, you went through a lot too😅😭.

Now THAT is one of the best parts ever! Gimli and Legolas having a co…

Girl!!! That looks so good!!!!! I ❤️ it!!

@felicity

I didn’t find myself confused at all bc you had the character’s names at the start of each chapter. I write in two POVs all the time. The way I signal it’s someone different it by starting each first sentence of the chapter with their name. (Well, at least most of the time)

Thanks for the feedback! 😀

Yep! You’re welcome!!

@felicity

Not a problem! And if you come across anything you’d like to share, I’m just a beginner myself so I’d appreciate it.

@sarafini

It may work better if you do change Jasmine’s age. 😅 But it’s up to you. I have my characters work around it.

@felicity

I love it so far!! I can really feel the characters’ personalities. And you’re doing a great job writing in present tense. Like, I’ve tried it before, and I just can’t do it right. 😅 So, awesome job! I can’t wait to read more!!

@felicity @lightoverdarkness

Lol! I don’t remember those parts in the movies.

In the movies, I didn’t really like Frodo either. (I’ve also only read the first LotR book, so maybe he actually is a great character 😅)

@koshka

Great idea for a topic!! I’ll definitely be on this thread as I research more my Civil War idea!

@felicity @freedomwriter76

Thanks!!

@felicity

I got all the links in, although I had to submit them one at a time.

@mineralizedwritings

*Gasp* In our world? I did not see that coming. =O XD

Pop in whenever you want! We all need to do research, even if it’s not needed. =)

It’s not letting me drop the links. Ugh.

@felicity

Alright! It is now on my wishlist. =)

It is wonderful fun! I’d recommend starting with your base layers (chemise drawers, corset, petticoats…all the ‘unmentionables’), that way you can get a feel for how the patterns and fabric work without worrying about messing something up. The base layers will be covered, so if the sewing looks…[Read more]
