@ellette-giselle They’re all Christians??

Where do you find all your pictures for these?

@ellette-giselle Aww, I love it!! She looks so sweet.

@ellette-giselle

anyone want to see another?

YESSSS!!!!!! Please.

Thanks! What do you mean? Like how am I putting it together? I do that on Canva.

Yes, how you put it together. Okay, thanks! I’ve been thinking of making some for my Wip.

@loopylin hehe it really is

@koshka @ellette-giselle

Flash fiction is fun. I think like Koshka said, you have to skip all the introductions and try not to be too plotty. I remember my first attempt at a short story was too plot-focused, with a bunch of plot points, and I just managed to shave enough words off to keep the limit.

Actually I think…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

It’s beautiful! What are you using to make them?

Dang my post made a new page. I’m not trying to bury people’s posts ack

@ellette-giselle @raxforge @rae @grcr

Jonas made a post on the previous page addressed to everyone

@ellette-giselle cool, what time period is this?

@ellette-giselle OOH! Looks cool! 😁

@ellette-giselle you’re welcome!!

@ellette-giselle

Good good!! A poignant ending, bittersweet but victorious.

Ah, I still think you could do something even shorter if you didn’t introduce it, but that’s also part of your writing style, I think, so I won’t prod.

@ellette-giselle ohhhhh

that makes sense

also I like the covers for the books!

@ellette-giselle exactly how i like them lol

@theducktator that’s a good plan

@highscribeofaetherium @koshka haha I guess “not eating them” is a color then lol

@ellette-giselle

I’d love feedback on the blurb. I want it to catch your attention, but not give too much away. Here you go.

WOW. Yes, it has totally caught my attention, and I’m hooked! It sounds very interesting. I think you wrote it quite well. It’s not too long and doesn’t give much away, but it offers the readers a huge tasty donut to hook o…[Read more]

My shortest one was 400, and I hardly set the stage

Flash fiction. The strength is in what you don’t say. Don’t worry about setting the stage, introducing characters, or anything like that. Snap a picture of a heart. Let poetry dance with prose.

I’m kinda sorry, but also definitely not. I absolutely love flash fiction, but have b…[Read more]

*Smirks*

*Cough cough*

It’s good practice. Seriously. Like sprinting is good for long distance running. Short distances straining with all you’ve got build strength for the long run.

Have you ever heard of the six word story? I don’t remember who wrote it, but one of his friends challenged him to write the shortest story ever.…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I guess I was sort of confused by Joseph’s fears about talking to Ezra, then. He seems to have multiple flashbacks to the soldiers, which is a good way to show how the events have affected him. I was probably confused (I’m assuming now that this scene is replacing the one before where he talks to three young men) about why he was…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle Your new blurb sounds so cool! 😍

Okay…

@ellette-giselle WAMMM *a snowball creams you* (except I want to see flash fiction under 75 words. *Raises eyebrows*)

@hybridlore AhA! Unsuspecting initiator, meet thy own deeds. *Snowball creams you*

@ellette-giselle

I like it a lot! The only things I noticed were that you included the long excerpt from the Bible again… most readers already know the Christmas story so I don’t think you need it in there. Then, also, when Amelia was talking about Mary, some of the tenses seemed wrong. Like, maybe it should be in past tense? Idk. And last thi…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

WOW! You drew the TCMW cover?? That’s amazing! Okay…I’ll respond to the large post you sent in reply to me…but right now I have to go take care of Buddy and start my working day! See you later!
