Oh dear me! I did not realize you had answered! Forgive my tardiness!!

Oh wow! That stable is close!

I dream every night. Well, at least it’s very rare that I don’t dream. I don’t mind it too much, but aobut 50%of my dreams are either off-putting or nightmares, so… XD

Yep, ants totally count! And I never even thought of Dolphins, but…[Read more]

Hello, Koshka!

I hope you get a violin soon! I completely understand your position… my flute-playing is on hold until I buy a new flute.

I do love archery too! I’ve always wanted Susan’s quiver. Archery is great because I actually know how to do it (and own a bow), so it is a bit more attainable than sword fighting.

I have been reading a lot o…[Read more]

Why, hello there, @power.

Favourite sword? How can one decide?

Favourite sci-fi/fantasy books? How can one decide that either? Ok… let’s see. I will write a list of some that I have read.

The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, most of the Silmarillion, 5 books of The Wheel of Time, almost all of the Shannara books, The Chronicles of Narnia, The…[Read more]

I absolutely love horses! I volunteer at a stable one day a week, and it’s awesome! so many things to learn!

yesssss, mornings are great! Most mornings at least. (do you dream much?)

Awwwww your dragons sound adorable!

awww, I’m sorry your cat disappeared! We had to give away a cat I had had for about 6 years when we moved away, and I was very…[Read more]

Hesh

His head pounded as if all the forces of Merscwarn had waged battle in his skull. Ow. He sat up, leaned against a cold damp wall, and breathed. Slowly his head-fog began to clear. Feather and Rinzler had already regained consciousness and were fiddling with the lock of the chamber’s door.

Since someone had gone through al…[Read more]

That sounds fantabulous! I think it would be so fun to live on a hobby farm! I want peacocks someday (although, they’re loud). and I do really want a horse someday (although, they’re expensive) XD

That’s very interesting and kinda cool! I know I’ve picked up on some of my friends’ mannerisms for sure! And the characters of books I read a little…[Read more]

Hesh

Hesh pondered what Feather had told him. “So starships are like airships that can fly between worlds? And scientists experiment on people? Your world is many worlds?” All these new ideas were making his head spin. He promised to himself to never let any of this past his mouth once he got back home— if he got back home.…[Read more]

Hesh

The relief of breathing fresh air once again came like a breath of fresh air. They must have had taken a wrong turn though, because instead of entering the guardhouse, they came out of the passage in a small courtyard overgrown with rose vines. He gazed up at the sky. A few distant clouds skittered across the sky like a…[Read more]

@keilah-h @power

Hesh

Hesh led the way back up the dim passage. With every step away from that door, he felt his heart grow a little lighter.

He could tell that Rinzler was still suspicious of him, but now mad as well for Hesh’s introduction of them to the cat. Hesh could handle Rinzler. In this place, they were going to need all the allies t…[Read more]

@power

(Power, is Kent a leopard?)

Hesh

Hesh stepped back as a lithe form leaped, roaring, from the depthless darkness. “Light!” the creature… yelled? “Wonderful light!” The creature looked like a large, spotted cat, but spoke with the voice of a human. This day was only getting more bizarre.

Hesh eyed the cat warily, not sure whet…[Read more]

@emilysf

So sorry for the late reply! I fear most my correspondents have been frightfully neglected these past few days…

Ooooo I would love to live on a hobby farm! What animals do you have?

Aww, thank you. Most the time I don’t feel like a very wonderful person lol

More about myself… hmmm…

My mind functions in little boxes! Whenever I…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Hesh

The door swung open with an ominous groan. Hesh could feel the darkness of beyond the door drawing them towards it like a maelström. A chill trickled down his spine. Whoever owned this castle was quite clearly not friendly.

“We going in there?” Rinzler asked, the lights on his odd clothes causing eerie shadows to dance like some…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Hesh

Hesh listened, agape, as the crew meandered down the long, dark passage. He wondered if it was possible to literally talk someone’s ear off. In his line of work, people generally kept to themselves. Feather’s openness was… refreshing.
Hesh cleared his throat. “Well, to answers your first question…” He trailed off. Should he t…[Read more]

Sorry it took so long for me to respond! I was out.

Hesh

Hesh eyed the discs Rinzler wielded. He did not want to be on the wrong side of those.  He listened to the pair’s harsh whispers. He felt his heart drop to his stomach. Could they trust him? He wouldn’t—couldn’t—trust himself. Betrayal haunted him like a shadow, following his every step…[Read more]

Hesh

He lifted his head. What in the world were they talking about? Starships? He had heard of ships and stars, but not starships.

The woman introduced herself and began to introduce the man, but cut her off. He was obviously distrustful.

He set his mouth with purpose. Clearly, neither him nor the two in front of him knew where they were. They…[Read more]

No problem!

Good idea. Focus on book one, and if book two happens, fantastic! Just see where the story leads.

I think that just hinting and foreshadowing the shadow group would work well, because then you don’t have to commit to book two, but can choose to write book two if you want.

Happy writing!

Hmmm… well then, as a reader I wouldn’t expect it (unless if there is some FANTASTIC use of foreshadowing and allusion). But, if they’re there, I feel like the group should be revealed eventually.

I just had a crazy thought! What if the shadow group is revealed slightly in an ominous scene, and sets the stage for a sequel!

However, I don’t…[Read more]

Sounds great! Although, as a reader I would probably want something to happen with the shadow group…
