I can give you my story’s wikipedia answer or I can give you my story’s wikipedia answer. There’s no other way to explain. *Pulls out textbook* Ahem.

Helminth is the modern scientific term for a parasitic worm, coming from Greek for ‘intestinal worm.’ But in this story’s universe, while humans eventually narrowed the word down to the…[Read more]

Bruh I gotta get back to this…..

Tomorrow maybe.

It’s (4):12! I got 2,379 in total, so yay!

That was a long time. And the writing is so rough. Ugh. XD

Hopping back on again. I’m aiming for 2,000 words and I got 1,385 in that last sprint. So here. We. Go! *excited panting*

Taking a break at (2):40 for a late lunch

@linus-smallprint

lol. Two giant sized cents I guess. XD

No prob. Sometimes just writing things like this out in conversation helps me to get it all organized in my mind personally, and I also found it interesting to read your thoughts,

I may have to say, now that you’ve explained it, that I lean slightly more toward Covanentalism… but maybe…[Read more]

Starting at :28 to restructure some scenes and draft some new ones in HoA.

@linus-smallprint

ACK! KP decided not to notify me.

Okay interesting! I may have to re-read those scenes you mentioned a little closer about children inheriting their parents faith, which I don’t believe.

I always liked the last one best because of Angus’ capture. (typical me) still that whole section had some of the BEST lines! Especially…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

good grief. I can’t get over the glasses on that wolf! It’s gonna kill me! XD

@whalekeeper

Out of curiosity, I copy-pasted all the scenes into a document and checked the word count. It was over 40,000 words. That doesn’t count stuff I didn’t find or didn’t believe was worthy enough.

And I am currently struggling to finish drafting a 6,000 words short story. This is embarrassing. What am I doing?? Does anyone else have…

Yes! Their adoptive parents live on the family’s ancestral farm. They have goats, chickens, and one donkey, and about 4 acres of field land. Two of the chickens like to hide their eggs in hard to reach places.. 😏 Alyona calls them the Sister Plagues.

@esther-c

Awesome! Y’all are the best.

I don’t have your email to my knowledge, so we can do the profile message thing or wait until next week when I’m hoping to have a system set up. Either way, I don’t mind! Just happy to bug someone else. 😉

@elishavet-pidyon

I got to make my characters hunt eggs through a straw barn, so that was fun. Been wanting to do it for a while. XD

XD Do they live on a farm at some point?

@loopylin

Yay! I’ll get it to you. =D

@elishavet-pidyon

I’d love to get your newsletter! I think you have my email already

Welp. I obviously did not come back to writing at 7ish, but it’s 7:41 and I’m gonna start.

@whalekeeper

I will! <3 (The first one came out today, and since I have your royal email, I could go ahead and send it to you, if you’d like.)

*cackles of glee* Exactly.

Yes, it is. I’m glad he feels like historical fiction (in a good way)! It’s set in an ancient/early iron age world, so the cultures etc. are incredibly historically inspired.…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Yay! That’s wonderful!

I got 1,181 words into HoA, so… good! I got to make my characters hunt eggs through a straw barn, so that was fun. Been wanting to do it for a while. XD

I’m going to break for dinner and hop back on around 7ish.
