Yes… I did…. (I have an aspiring pilot of a brother with pilot friends, so yes. XD) but I also invented this plane so I have a little leeway.

Ah, right! I forgot about that. Neat!

why, did something stand out that seemed incorrect?

Nope, it’s actually the opposite. I was so impressed by how realistic it all sounded.

@ellette-giselle

I went through all six chapters! I’m thoroughly enjoying the story! I’m excited to see Cassion appear.

By the way, how much research did you do for all the jet tech stuff? Did you actually look into all those terms they talked about?  Especially Jason’s engineering talk…

I was going to share my thoughts, but then this thread would start to become redundant, lol! I pretty much agree with what everyone else has said. And as for the passage people keep referencing about food offered to idols and becoming a stumbling block, that’s 1 Corinthians 8.

Oh cheese and crackers, now I’m worried everyone’s gonna think I’m a horrible person

I just released that band might cause you pain to look up because the Google search makes them look satanic. 😅😭 They do not worship a demon, point blank, and I can explain that if need be.

@theshadow

Hey! 🙂 I haven’t thought about this in a long time, but I agree with everyone else on this thread. Just because a genre of music has been used to spread bad messages does not mean the genre itself is bad.

Take jazz, for example. There are many different jazz songs, and these songs have been the backdrop for cozy, peaceful memories…[Read more]

@theshadow

I’m not an expert on this, but would say that as long as the song itself does not glorify sin, it probably falls in with eating meat sacrificed to idols. Paul teaches that one person may be able to eat it with the understanding that God made all things and the food is just food and can be eaten to glorify God instead, but another…[Read more]

Characters:

~Which character(s) did you find the most compelling/relatable/believable and why?

Some of the characters had very compelling characteristics, like Jim’s human decency and Evan with his likable dialogue. They all served their roles and were decently memorable. Jonathan was my favorite because he was the POV…[Read more]

@liberty

This one’s fascinating. I like him, even though he’s probably not a great guy… yup. You said he’s a villain. Oh well. XD Let’s see…

The board is both straight forward and mysterious, so I’m guessing the character is pretty similar. The child aspects are most interesting to me, since I can’t tell if they represent him or someone he…[Read more]

@keilah-h

He’s one of the villains.

-he has a pet crow or raven

Actually, I wasn’t thinking of it like that…but that makes a lot of sense. Okay, I’ll add this to the story!

Yes! You are correct!

@hybridlore

Wow, it looks great! But this seems like a sad character or a villain. 😢

Yup. But thankfully…something good happens.…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I’m trying to fill out these feedback questions before I lose track of what’s happening. *Types furiously*

Someone suggested I cut the last section of the blurb and leave it with the part about Jonathan’s friendship because it has more of a cliffhanger. What do you think?

I say remove the part about tragedy striking, and only…[Read more]

@theshadow

Instead of giving you a direct answer, I am going to give you a few things to think through from both sides of the argument.

I don’t believe that just because something has been invented by a Godless person does not mean it is wrong. Consider this: If we take a look at the book of Genesis, it was Jubal who invented instruments.…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009

That’s so exciting!! I know you’ve got some help already, but if you need another set of eyes or another opinion, I’m here! 🤗

@theshadow

This sounds like something my OCD brain would get stuck on as well. I don’t think music is evil just for being a certain type of music, but everyone will always have different opinions about this and if it is OCD, talking about it and trying to come up with a logical answer sounds good, but it’s not going to help.

It’s up to you if yo…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Well, I’m back from vacation and I have finished your book!

Sorry for the lack of comments. Often, while I was reading it, I didn’t even have Wi-fi or Data, so most of my feedback will be my answers to your questions I found on page 15 of this forum.

Overall, it was an exciting story with interesting characters. I can see why…[Read more]

also what did you do to the URL to get it to temporarily admin-ify you?

@linus-smallprint It’s cool how you took classes or something for this kinda thing!

That would be cool too, I’d totally give my feedback if you did it.

@whalekeepe @hybridlore @keilah-h @esther-c

I would stay away from things like WIX. I can’t remember what it was, but while they are easier to make, there were reasons my instructors gave me to avoid these. Security might have been one of them. (Then again, Kingdom Pen isn’t. Because of my knowledge of WordPress, I was able to find an admin login…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Oh joy! Oh exultation!

I haven’t been able to really look at this thread in a bit. (Been up to my elbows in royal icing.) Now oh!

I’m so excited. It’s this book! Hooray!

I love Cassion and Rory’s boards. They’re perfect.

Do you have a scene with sliding around on sock feet? It would be delightfully light-hearted for a book w…[Read more]
