Use the dash if you want it to read as a sudden horrifying shock, use the dots if you want it to be a slow realization that settles into horror.
Ah, okay that works better. Thanks!
I have been swamped lately, but we’ll see if I can have her to you this week.
Take your time! Thanks for the comments, I’m glad the chapter gave som…[Read more]

I count six that Ellette has killed…
but pretty much everyone in her books has almost died at least once.I want to see him put to the test, and I want to see him face consequences for that choice, even though he chose the right thing, and I want to watch him struggle through and stand firm in that!
I just want yo…

It could also be said Helen with the “e” still added.
Phew! I’m so relieved.
Shy. Rather a bit of a coward sometimes. Didn’t want to ever draw attention to himself. Relied on Julian as spokesman and decision maker. Very quiet. Never, ever did anything that went against what others were doing.
Interesting! My Adrian is kind of li…[Read more]

Hi! (I can’t get into my email so I’m messaging you here lol)
I’m watching a historical fiction anime called The Vinland Saga rn, have you seen it? Idk I thought you might like it, it’s a sienen (made for adults) so it can be heavy on the gore but it’s a war show so to be expected. I’m only 8 episodes in so I can’t say for the…[Read more]

I wish I was athletic? XD
I like the slight burn that comes from steady running, but side pain tends to come first. I like to bike and hike, but (as some already mentioned) I’m in school and working a desk job. Which means most of the steady exercise I get is daily five-ten minute power walks crossing campus between classes.
As…[Read more]

I forgot…is Leon and Julian writing in the same journal? Or do they each have their own?

Good morning!!! You’re bright and early! Normally Hybridlore is my first reader. Looks like you got her place! 😂

Oh wait…Helene is said like He-leen?
Oh, come on! Adrian wasn’t always dead. I would like to know what he was like when he was alive on earth.
Speaking of Adrians, have you ever read “Lysbeth”?
No! What’… -

Soccer is fun. I always understood kickball more, but I have a friend who was a goalie for years. It’s very much a thing in Hispanic culture, so we see a lot of it.
I’m personally not super sporty. I live in college football country, but it’s possibly my least favorite sport. I like badminton though, and pingpong, and kinda…[Read more]

Yay, the bonus section!! XD
The part where Julian says he has to stay in his room and then two sentences later says he might go downstairs was a little confusing.
I thought he was going to be sick for longer than that—I don’t know, just seemed like something you would do.
Nice to see Joseph and his family mentioned again. I m…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle I live in Florida! There’s like 0 mountains here! And barely any fields that aren’t either dangerous-insect-infested or wet and full of either alligators or the deadliest bacteria and amoebas out there.
NGL Florida is micro-Australia when it comes to that area of life.
My brother has two airsoft guns, but we…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle let me think……
I think it’s closer to ten actually.
It’s not so much the count as how close they are to each other. And everyone being dramatic about them, although that part isn’t exactly your fault lol

Exactly! My brother still exercises all the time, and he’s stronger than me despite being younger. He enjoys wall climbing too. It’s really funny because he has broad shoulders and strong arms, but his feet are tiny.

Yep, he’s in a wheelchair! He has a birth defect where his spinal cord developed weirdly and his legs are… partially paralyzed? I’m not sure what the term is.
And that is my explanation for having a couple wheelchair-bound characters in my stories, lol.

@ellette-giselle well I walk on the treadmill on Wednesdays when my family goes to the rec center for my brother’s tae kwon do classes, so there’s that.
I also ride a bike and consider myself decently good at it, and rarely go fishing.
But my favorite sport is going outside with a net and catching anole lizards. No one counts that as a sport…

Hey, do either of you (and/or someone else) have resources about PTSD based on actual interviews with WWII survivors? I can do my own research ofc, but just thought I’d ask. I know both of you are writing historical fiction about it.

Wow!! Thanks so much for mentioning that! I’ll look it up right away and see what my folks think. (I like to get their advice before I watch something new. 😉)
Again, thanks so much!
also, did you draw your pfp? If so, it’s pretty amazing!
Ok! Tell me if you watch it! Only thing to note is that in general Japanese shows can be really sad and you have to stick it out for the payoff. There’s a lot of bad guys and their behavior is gross, however the show does a good job portraying it as gross. The main character has a pretty negative revenge arc but it’s obviously not being portrayed…[Read more]
I didn’t draw it lol, Idk I usually would use my art but I just felt kinda lazy and wanted my fav character as the pfp XD I’m pretty sure it’s a panel from the manga.
I actually am a secret lover of sad stories and tragedies, as long as there’s a beautiful purpose for them. Ooo! Have you seen Grave of Fireflies? That one was so, so sweet and so beautiful. (and tragic) I loved it so much. It was my first anime, and it was WWII so I was all in!
Ooo! Dresses! Nice! Yes of course I’ll let you know when/if I watch…[Read more]
Oh nice! I love sad stories too XD if a show makes me cry I know it’s a good one! I haven’t, but I’ve heard great things about it and it’s on my tbw! Totally understandable! I haven’t seen that one.
well nice pfp anyhow. It reminded me of your work. ☺️
Aw thanks! < 3
