Leo

He paused mid step and looked back at the kid.

Quincy had looped an arm around Rory’s neck, and was reaching out dusty fingers for the glass. He giggled. “Roror, it’s God’s house.”

Roror? Leo smiled, feeling all the tension from the last few hours drain from his shoulders. And not just him; Silvia sank down on a pew…[Read more]

@koshka @ellette-giselle

Where are we in terms of distance from the school? Are you guys intending to disappear or…? XD

@ellette-giselle

Ah. Such fun. I love the kid’s reactions. XD

Leon laughed, a knowing expression on his face.

So…what is a knowing expression? Raised eyebrows? A smirk? This is such a vague description that his face won’t settle into one expression. It’s just a blur.

This is random, but I’ve noticed that your characters pray in turns. Is…[Read more]

@koshka @ellette-giselle

Here’s an aesthetic for Project Golden Songs, my new WIP. (It’s the one with the shepherd Aiche) (boy don’t I have a thing for shepherds. XD) I’m not dumping my other two, just trying to get this written.

Meet Elline, daughter of kings. She’s had a rough time of it, but she’s made of sterner stuff than most think.

@ellette-giselle

*Cackles* *Grins*

I love it. Quincy seems good at activating ProtectMode in people. I need to tie that into the book.

Alrighty then.

Leo

The row of hedges ended in another lane. Leo turned up it for a few feet before darting around a large glass greenhouse with a gasped out prayer. He sent a glance over his shoulder.

Rory…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Lol, the last part. 😆

I think the scene felt a little awkward just because we haven’t seen much of Amelia and what she feels about Joseph, but I think you’re working on adding in more of that. Otherwise, good job.

@ellette-giselle

Leon nodded. “I am tired of it. You know, there’s not much more I could wish for then a home of my own. A place to settle and say, ‘this home is mine, this house is mine, these fields are mine, this family is mine.’” Leon paused, and when he spoke again his voice had dropped to a lower, almost sad tone. “With the way things are…

@ellette-giselle

Gotcha. We’re either going to an apartment flat, or their ship the Mantis, you pick.

Silvia

Number sequences flashed across her tablet. She stifled a groan. They had a tail.

A drop of sheer terror made her dizzy with the images, the sounds parading through her head. Pounding feet. Sharp metal. Blood.

She sucked in a deep…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Yes, I had pro for a year. I like it, but I would prefer to hand draw my own map (especially if it will appear in my book.)

I have considered drawing my own trees, mountains, etc, uploading the drawings in Inkarnet, then using the tools there to make my own map, put I never got around to it.

@stephie

Also, I love the map! I don’t know, something about maps of fantasy worlds just gets at me. *Smiles dreamily, looking back towards The Lord of the Rings* I also like the name Huntt for a town; it just seems to fit.

@ellette-giselle

I love the map!!!

Thanks, both of you! One of these days, I will actually make the up-to-date version.

@ellette-giselle

Then maybe it’s a good plan.

Well, the object doesn’t need to be heavy. It needs to leave a convincing imprint on the scene. This the fabric filled sack.

@linus-smallprint

Alan, must you do something stupid????😩

@ellette-giselle

Just met the second crow, but I’m pausing to call something.

I think it’s his mother.

Maybe.

Ooh, good theory.

@stephie

Seriously, that gave me the ugh-the-main-character-is-doing-something-stupid sinking feeling in my stomach

Same.

@ellette-giselle

*Suspenseful music plays*

Leo

Great blue stars. Leo’s teeth clenched. A tail, here, halfway home. These creeps really hard no discretion. “Good man. On Zero.”

Three.

He tapped his com unt to alert Silvia.

Two.

Silvia even with them under the pretense of taking Quincy. Her eyes were sharp, fingers twitching over her…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Ty! Just the effect I was going for. Creepy, but not scary creepy. More of just otherworldly.

@whalekeeper

Thank you!! Glad you like it! : D

Ok I actually just finished it today!

@freed_and_redeemed

Smack!

Yay! I’ve been creamed. Now I have eight snowballs….

*grins a disoriented grin*

*falls back into snow fort*

Let’s see what I can do.

Also, adorable scene! I like how you showed what Leon was thinking almost exclusively by his actions. It really made me feel like I knew him.

@ellette-giselle I’m glad you like h…[Read more]

I have a fun question! I’ve already figured out my answer for my story, but I asked my friends this question and got so much traction that I wanted to post it here too. I love hearing what different people come up with. My f…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle @liberty @hybridlore

Here’s your 700 (actually a little over) for the 14 snowballs y’all threw at me.

ridiculous amount of snowballs

Y’all gotta chill XD

Mostly you, Ellette😤

😆

Riker nudged the front door open, walking into the small foyer. He stepped aside to give Leon room to get inside and glanced around the…

@ellette-giselle

good. Good! I’m so glad this scene works well! “touch down Tulip!!” (Storks if you haven’t scene the movie that quite come from)

Have seen that, but it’s been a while. (5 more minutes, and then we stop!)

I’m surprised there was no comment on the Julian/Joseph conversation.
was it good? Does it fit?

Think so. It makes sense that…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

that’s what (frustratingly) keeps me from being able to say this scene doesn’t work. 

Part of my mission as an author is to get Christians to consider things they wouldn’t normally do and to think about them. Now that Alan’s joined The Faithful, we are starting to get into this. (Once I am done with this draft, I will write up a…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

So, Joseph deftly avoided contact with her, and the days dragged into eternity.

Not an easy task since they are living in the same house. No wonder it felt like an eternity.

Eric says to tell you that he is sure he’s taller than you. 

A great accomplishment.

Let’s see, he said he used proverbs, especially 31, he used Timothy, Titu…
