Exactly!

@elishavet-pidyon

Oh… I love those lines. The shadow of a poet in me shivers in ecstasy. The beauty, the meter, the words all make me explode!

Ok, I’ll be quiet now.

@abigail-m

Thank you so much! I don’t have anyone much beyond my family to go over my writing, so although I know it has flaws I have trouble pinpointing them.

Oh my, description (in any form) is one of the things I struggle with the most. I love crafting scenes in my head, but they rarely work out on paper. Thank you, I needed that.

Yes, there…[Read more]

@calidris

Yea, I’ve been hearing a lot about Haikiyu. I also heard the dub(English voice over) is amazing.
Do you prefer to watch it subbed or dubbed?

@devastate-lasting

Happy to oblige in anime conversation ^-^
Wow, you’ve seen a lot.
I enjoyed Your Name quite a bit, and I’ve been suggested Her Blue Sky before. But I don’t recognize many…[Read more]

@koshka

XD You’ll get there.

I was surprised those were his first fictional novels. That’s some Godly inspiration right there.

@elishavet-pidyon

George Macdonald? I don’t recognize that name. Andrew Peterson quotes him?

@trahia-the-minstrel

I will look for the rest of the anime/manga then! How many manga are there?

You know some Japanese? That’s so cool!

I’ve heard some Attack on Titan music and (another big surprise) my bro has watched it.

@trahia-the-minstrel

Thank you!

@anatra23

Oh how many books have I at least confused by reading ahead? Almost every book I read. =|

His books are sooooo good. I hope mine may somehow measure up.*sigh* I would probably have written waayyy to far and ruined it.

OH YES.
I am happy this exists.

@elishavet-pidyon @koshka @keilah-h

It is so beautiful.

XD I’ve ruined so many of my favorite books by reading the end when I’m only halfway through ;-; hlp.

I’m glad Andrew Peterson decided to go with putting that ending in the epilogue. It was smart, the perfect way to carry on the story without the…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

🙂 Amen.

@trahia-the-minstre

Ah, yes. I have seen that anime. Snow White With the Red Hair is one of my friends favorite anime. My brother (who’s best friends with this girl(my friend)) convinced me to watch the anime (big surprise) for his best friend’s sake.

I enjoyed most of it, the romance was adorable at times. I just wish…[Read more]

Here’s my other pic. I had to put them on separately.

Incomplete sketch. Mouth is only half open.

Aurrgh!! It ate my response three times!!

@elishavet-pidyon

Oh I love birds of prey! Those are some long wing and life spans. Does the fact that they mourn tie in with the book any?

@keilah-h

Are your Ailurids animals or something like the cloven of Wingfeather? Can they and if they are animals, can they think (like people)?

@anyway

Here is…[Read more]

Writing has helped me think in words, to put my thoughts in a written format. But that may be expected. What I didn’t expect was a love for editing.

Yes, editing. Fixing mistakes, taking my horrid words and forming something beautiful. Sadly, I rarely have enough written to reform, and what I do have usually needs complete revision. *Sighs,…[Read more]

A book series that hasn’t aged well for me is the Enola Holmes series. I have three siblings and all of them girls, also our mother has been a voracious reader for about her entire life, so a lot of the literally I’ve been introduced to was written for girls ( The American Girls book, Little Women, the Little House on the Prairie series, the Ann…[Read more]

@nova21

I recently exited a season of stress, and even though I’m a loosely-scheduled homeschooler, I know what that’s like mentally.

XD I prolly dealt with it in a somewhat wrong way (more time with friends, and more comfort food than usual) but as soon as I let myself rest maybe cry and very much vent emotions I simply leaned on Jesus. That…[Read more]

@trahia-the-minstrel

Oh my goodness, my brother got me to do the same thing. Just with a different anime. It’s called Jujutsu Kaisen, it’s also rated R, but he didn’t bother to tell me that. And he had me watch it. Alone. But it’s fine, the violence isn’t so bad. It was one of those shows that had the right amount of charming humor and a great…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon

That sounds fun. My mom is Texan and she and some of my siblings always enjoyed those types of movies. If you ever visit, be prepared to be assaulted with Chuck Norris memes 😉

@joy-caroline

Oh, yea that makes sense. It’s kind of sad. I can’t imagine someone forcing me to take my beloved characters and turn their lives against…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon

I used to read the American Girl books. I didn’t like them all that much, and kind of thought of them as discount–Laura Ingles Wilder books. But I was also strongly against historical fiction, so it made sense I didn’t like it.

What’s Fort Apache?

@joy-caroline

Yea, I agree I like Amy with Laurie, I think it tied the…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

Oh, is that like a sequel to Anne of Green Gables?
Somewhat random fact: a woman in my mother’s Sunday School group believes heartily that L. M. Montgomery married Gilbert and Anne because that’s how she wanted Jo and Laurie toe end up in Little Women by L. M. Alcott. It makes perfect sense tho. Anne and Gilbert are (at least in my…[Read more]
