Extra challenge: don’t pull the sadness from a super abusive or traumatic experience.

Eh, I’ll allow it, but I guarantee you it won’t make me feel anything.

@elishavet-pidyon

Yay! Someone willing to take the challenge! XD

I get emotional at movies and also cry myself to sleep occasionally so it shouldn’t be too hard, probably.

@ellette-giselle cool, cool, I guess there’ll be a little town there from now on. I didn’t see the map, or if I did it was a while back ago.

are they still living in the cave or have they started doing something else? I can remember a few stories of Christian factions escaping into caves and stuff to avoid persecution and living there for a while.

@the_lostj-ournal you’re welcome! just keep drawing and you’ll keep improving.

@ellette-giselle wow! So are the other Christians gonna stay in the mountains forever (well, not forever, but at least for a decently long time, maybe make a town there) or are they gonna go over the mountains and to some hypothetical other side?

@trailblazer

That’s amazing! I love art with a message, and something like that would be incredible. She has a valuable tool indeed!

@ellette-giselle

Ah. Not sure what version I like better. Gravitating towards the one I already know, but only because it is familiar.

This is the version we sing at our church. Is it the same one your church uses?

Any thoughts on that? Do you think it’s good that it’s just back to Leon and Jul…

@loopylin

Oh dear. Ok. I’ll take you up on that, even though I am now suspecting you don’t cry easily. XD

@ellette-giselle

How long, oh Lord, how long
Will this go on, go on?
How long, oh Lord, how long
Will this go on, go on?

Was this song inspired by Psalm 13? We have a similar hymn we sing at out church inspired by that Psalm.

So they are headed back now. I guess they couldn’t hide in the mountains forever. I think you chose just the right moment…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Ugh. I sound so heartless and not at all like I was tearing up AGAIN when I edited that scene, even though I’ve been over it more times then I can count.

lol

@elishavet-pidyon
Thank you! And I’m glad the examples made sense to someone besides me. The characters must be protected not only for themselves, but for the sake of story legacy. ⚔️

@loopylin

Too hesitant to kill off characters who probably should actually die for the plot/ their own arc.

Some people are definitely more like that. I fall…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Okay, great! Send it!

Do you like have in the soldier’s voices in that one?

@ellette-giselle

I FOUND IT!!!!! The instremental!!

Did you ever sing the EPIC along to the instremental?

@esther-c

Okay! I understand! Things can get very busy here, too.

@ellette-giselle

Ooo, there is instrumental for some of them.

SERIOUSLY??!!!!!! Send them PLEASE!

Yes, Athena’s theme is so beautiful! Wait until god Games!!!! 😱

Oh my gosh! I’ve yet to hear that one…but it’s one of my sister’s favorites…I’m am listening to that today, Lord willing!

@rae

glad you like my idea!

I think the sister entirely depends on what Chase’s plot and also personal character arc is going to be, which are not things I know much about. Though I do like the idea of giving him a lighthearted sister who eventually rubs off on him and helps him be less broody all the time. Maybe he doesn’t know about her exi…[Read more]

I know nothing about this, but is that animation trend that’s been going around YouTube from this? The one that’s like:

Calypso (singing): Tell me, who’s Penelope?

Odysseus: She’s my wife <3

Calypso: …

Calypso: ANYWAYS *changes the subject and starts singing about her island*

If it’s not and I’m just talking utter nonsense rn, I apologi…

I have the opposite problem, lol.  Too hesitant to kill off characters who probably should actually die for the plot/ their own arc.

@anyone

Random optional challenge just for fun: If any of you can write something that makes me cry without any death in it, I will draw any character of your choice for you. (Full body, fully colored and shaded)…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Would you be interested in a goal-focused chat where we practice our individual writing skills and chat about our progress

That would be awesome! I really need people to annoy me about writing and keep me on task so maybe that would help. Not sure how much time I’ll have this summer, though.

@ellette-giselle very true, it’s really worse for him.

Freezing to death is a nasty way to go though.
