@Ariella-Newheart Oh really, good. Paper clips are useful. XD

@daeus

Yes, I do want to make a difference on the culture with my writing, not only on the secular publishing market, but on the Christian one as well, because I rarely enjoy anything I read in either of those (though there are novels I do love in both).

I feel my ultimate calling by God, is, like @kaya-young to become a missionary, however, I…[Read more]

@Ariella-newheart Oh yes, I have a whole book from Creation Ministries about how dinosaurs could have inspired dragons, and I’m obsessed with dragons and dinosaurs, so it was really interesting.

Oh, and the weather is very cosy thank you. Perfect for curling up in the green grass and smoking a pipe  and reading a book and “good-morning-ing” Ga…[Read more]

@daeus I am late… But I am here.
First. I haven’t really thought about impacting the culture a lot. Mostly just people’s lives.
Second. Yes, I do want to reach people. Make them think. Challenge them. Point them in the right direction (to Christ).

Your last post does seem to sum it up.

@skredder Ohh… Intriging.
@ariella-newheart Nice. Hmmm… She has the same name as you.
Did you draw her?

@rochellaine @salome01w4g I love the Boy Colonel, as well as the other two. XD.  I think Chester might be my favorite though. And Edmund. Wow. I think he deserves a high ranking. *cries* Especially that ending.

@ashlyvye That last one is definitely me haha! I’m lucky the college I’ll be going to has a creative writing major.

@daeus, sorry I didn’t see this till now. You probably already have enough answers, but I’ll do it anyway. 😉

Absolutely, but, and this ties in with the second question, as I believe someone maybe already mentioned, writing is a secondary career path for me at present; a hobby, if you will. I love it very much, would like to impact culture and…[Read more]

@daeus Absolutely. One of my goals is to become published. And I am vigorously trying to get contracted before college.

Well then yeah, I’d say that describes how I feel about it. @daeus

@jenwriter17 I just finished reading Alex and Brett Harris’s book, but I’m not reading at the moment…

@warrenluther04 😀 the Inheritance cycle is awesome! For awhile, it was my favorite fantasy series. Eragon itself I like because of the epic quest feel and the intricate magic system

@daeus To answer your first question… yes, or at least to impact those who come across my stories.

And to answer your second: Also yes, that’s my goal…

@Daeus well, sold out on doing my best to do that, yes.

@ariella-newheart Looks like you’ve already gotten quite bit of advice, but I would say that probably, 30 characters is too many.

That’s not to say it can’t be done- if the story is an expansive epic, it certainly can, but 30 is a lot for readers to try to keep track of.

It also depends on how much time these characters get- if they’re mostly…[Read more]

That depends on what you mean by sold out…? @daeus

@Daeus YES.

That’s the goal, yes. @daeus

@ashlyvye  I know, right?  The infinite book lists that we all possess…  🙂

@ashlyvye  My dad read the LOTR series out loud to my siblings and me when we were younger and then I read The Fellowship of the Ring on my own.  They.  Are.  Amazing.  Definitely worth it.

And usually I’d say not to judge a book by its movie (because sometimes the movie is bad and the book rocks) but in this case the movies do the books just…[Read more]
