I think it was, because I was trying to guess what you were like based on your profile pic.

Really? So, what did you think about me and how I was like?

@ellette-giselle

Well, he was talking about gross things brothers do to their sisters…and you were like, “N-O. My brothers do not do that. They’re trained to be gentlemen.”

I thought a real fight was going on (Power insulted your Scottish heritage) until some amends were made between you two. *whew* It was greatly relieving.

@ellette-giselle

That’s fair. Lol

@ellette-giselle

Wow, you really do sound like Power. 😅

Good, I can’t wait to get to know them better since right now their personalities kind of blend together.

@ellette-giselle

He looks so cool!!

@ellette-giselle

Okay, I mostly like Julian to be honest. I don’t know much about Leon yet, but I’ll probably grow to like him too.

There wasn’t going to be a third and fourth book in the first place. There wasn’t going to be a second one for that matter.  But they wouldn’t shut up and let me move on. I believe that God wanted to say some more…

@ellette-giselle

That was you? I can’t remember if you were the one who helped me…it may have been that though.

Where I first remember meeting you more was during the Short Story Contest War. I was like, “I like this girl!” Scottish…your firey debate with Power…your writings…

@ellette-giselle

Oh no… oh no… Ellette, what are you going to do to them?? My poor Leon and Julian!! 😢

And we totally called that they were going to be the next leads. 😉

I love the title and the verse at the beginning too. I’m excited to see what happens next… 😬

@ellette-giselle

Oh dear!

Don’t worry, you’re in no trouble at all. I’m sure that can get confusing.

@ellette-giselle

I’m not in the habit of giving away my endings.

*whispers* Oh, okay.

@ellette-giselle

Wait…what??!!! 

How does Josef know them? You mean Joseph right?…not Josef? Like, the CR Josef?

@ellette-giselle

Dark…but with a brilliantly light-filled ending…right?

@ellette-giselle

Ooh…so, they’re going back to the Empire!!!

@ellette-giselle

Oh my gosh!!! I have a lot of those pictures for my characters!!! And I have a Beric, too!!!

@ellette-giselle

This fella is named Diedrich.

Ah, his name is slightly different.

Oh, here’s a funny thing. My family was deciding who to pick for our family’s “hero of faith”, and we went with Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Mama was asking, “How do you spell his first name?” Mama is Japanese, so even though she’s lived in the states for many years, she…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Wait….WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is this the character you mentioned when we talked???? *utterly freaking out* So…when does he appear? Act 3?

Oh my gosh…he’s based on Deitrich Bonhoeffer…right? I mean, his name…that quote…his look…

The board is awesome! One of those pictures (the carving one) I was planning to use for one…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I like him! He looks like a good friend to have in hard times.

@ellette-giselle

It looks great! Does he play the violin? 😁

@ellette-giselle

Prayer really is important. God has given us this gift, we should ask Him to help us use it.

I completely agree!!!!

I also pray about EVERYTHING…like asking Jesus to help me pick out outfits or other random things lol

@whalekeeper

I totally understand how you feel *cries*

No matter how cringy it is, sometimes it is better…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

So, before I ever begin to write I pray. I write down the idea in my prayer journal and say, “Lord, here’s my idea. If you want me to write this book, give me the rest of the story” and He does.

This is really good. I need to do this more. And one of the major themes of book two of TNPT is trusting God!

8 drafts per book? Phew!…[Read more]
