Basically what everyone has said. XD
But since I must have my own take documented..
I believe everyone it on a path either towards for away from God. Everyone is seeking the One that can fill the hole in their lives. If you have that, then you have a duty to share it. Similarly, if you believe others will actually face eternal doom, then you are cruel not to want to share.
The first step seems to be praying for that person, that God will open their heart. In many places, the best thing to pray for is divine revelation and hunger. Then for yourself that you can walk in the Spirit when God does open the door. That might entail telling them their religion is not entirely right. That God is over all, and Jesus is His name. That personal salvation does exist, but cannot be earned by balancing good and bad deeds. That a debt against heaven can only be cleared by the one the master of heaven. That grace and truth exist together. That there’s hope for the imperfect.

That went somewhere that’s named Nowhere.

Ah, your moodbard is beautiful! You did a fantastic job! I’m curious about this fellow. Is he a protagonist?
Whatever tips I have may be irrelevant since I can see them in your work already. Basically, look for coordinating colors and moods between pictures, and play with a style until you feel like it fits the character. Also, choose two fonts that complement and don’t clash and use one as your basic font and one to highlight certain quotes or the character’s name. But really, what you are doing looks great! I feel like I have a good sense of your character and his struggles. Just have fun and try new things with it.
You have a BRYCE????!!!
Yes, we do!! I’m glad you like it. 🙂 You know, it might be one of my favorites after this too.
What character did you use it for?
I read Susan’s fan fiction story after the train accident. It was really good.
There’s one published? I mean, I know there is one, but I haven’t seen it or heard anything of it. What was it called?

I sympathize with the soundtrack issue. I imagine scenes and plot points behind almost any instrumental song. But when it’s from Apollo 13, which I have never watched… I’m not perfectly comfortable just connecting the two. And of course it fells awkward to explain to people. XD
Like, no. My book has nothing to do with Lord of the Rings. The music just fits. Perfectly.
Voice-claims! Yes! I got so happy when Sight and Sound’s David came out and the lead actor sounded like one of my characters.
Research definitely counts as a hobby. And the food is so important. Have you cooked several of your traditional dishes?
If only every fiber was a easily obtainable as we wish. Llanchama tree fabric looks interesting. what would you use it for?
Personally, I long for fine linen, woven from flax…. *sniff*

LOl! It is kinds my profile here too, so I might have to apologize for being confusing. XD
CWW has some good memories though…
I can totally see that in your writing. For some reason that sentence just sounded a lot like some of the shorter snippets I’ve read from you.
Really? Now I’m curious. XD I’m always interested in how my writing sounds to others. I was first alerted to the whole detail thing after Whaley pointed it out. Then I realized how much it affects my day to day life, and I was astounded. It’s not like I’m Sherlock and notice everything, I just form my narrative about life with little bricks.

Aw, I forgot Marcel was taking Ellie. I don’t know how. I love a good friend dynamic. Those two are so cute.

Hehe. I do love a good typewriter.

I am once more on the infamous computer that does not do accent marks. My darling is sad. He needs his daily dose of flair.
Reuven
Large, echoing corridors filled with rushing students and chatting staff swallowed Reuven up into their midst. He gripped the straps to his duffle and ducked by a group of arguing teens. The cacophony closed overhead. Fifty, a hundred voices mixing into a crushed ball of too many conversations.
“Hurry, Ruwen, or we’ll be late!”
“Paxton! It’s on the left here…”
“Excuse me, I think I’m sick.”
“Ma’am? Where did the World Civ class move too?”
“We made it! Now time for…”
“…A trashcan. Let’s see the nurse.”
The doors to his own class appeared beside him. He ducked in with a sigh so deep it hurt.

*squeak of delight*
I forgot to add my story to the last contest until it was far too late, but I should have time for this one. So I am not a little excited.
Better yet, I already have an idea for it. This will be fantastic.

Oh, good one! I recently learned a lot about how my brain works by comparing my drawings to my writing style. For instance, I like to find little details that describe a whole, whether that’s in water color or prose. Then I realized that I notice little things in my environment, to the point that I might miss something obvious because the crystal suncatchers on the chandelier are so fascinating. XD
So yeah. Back on topic.
I suppose my hobbies like art and music make me think more about the details and mood I am setting in a story. I don’t often listen to music while I write because I am usually writing between busy times at work, etc.. However, the music/mood behind a scene is often as important to me as the things that happen, whether I manage to capture it in the writing or not.
I LOVE historical clothing and culture. This means that I know more about Eirtanian dress and burial customs than how many Ra’ahri have been on the throne. In fact, one of the first things I knew about the story was that Yartass and Eirtan had some really great embroidery.
It also means I am seriously considering making myself some Eirtanian traditional garb. Maybe even wearing an Eirtanian vail to my wedding if I ever get married. XD

I am 608 words into my 1,500 word essay. XD

Eeeeek! I like this. It makes a lot of sense.

If I remember right, he has long experience breaking out of jail, and so somehow lifts the bolt with a length of cord. Or something. I think your theory is entirely possible. It is the Mousethief, after all. XD
It’s been a while since I read it too.

Lol. And I just jump in talking about Knights and death ravens while the conversation is leaning toward intergalactic elves. This is what makes KP what it is.
