Also on the first person thing, it might work, but it also might throw everyone off, y’know? It really depends.

I think his passion is what made him the best fantasy author. If Tolkien didn’t love writing, and didn’t love the story, then it wouldn’t have been a classic. It wouldn’t have been published at all.
That’s exactly what I’m saying. He wrote great stories because he loved writing so much, not because his ability was somehow greater than other writers.

Like, people go on and on about how he was basically “The Perfect Fiction Writer,” do they realize he was just a guy who was SUPER passionate about his story?

I’m one of those perfectionists who wants to throw their stuff in the trash everytime they read it just cuz it isn’t as good as Lord of the Rings
I know you’re joking, but has nobody thought about the fact that it must’ve either taken Tolkien like 5 drafts to get it perfect, or he was just the exception to the rule and had everything str…[Read more]

Yep, basically burnt out. And easily distracted XD. Three more stories. I dragged my feet in the last one.
Honestly, you were one of the main people I had in mind when I decided to go for it. I LOVED your book and it meant so much. People need to be able to read stuff like it, but honestly it’s so hard to get p…

How’s the editing going so far? I bet you’re super tired by now. XD

@rae @ellette-giselle I’m glad you guys were able to work something out!! I’ve just self-published every time I finished a book, but I have a book on writing and it talks about how to get a publisher, and I was like “wow, this is…..really complicated. Do we really need to do all this?”

Wait really!!!!!??? You might be going with us?!?!?!
I looked into like twenty different publishers today, some briefly, some a little more in-depth. The only two I liked were yours and one that I can’t even submit my book too so…yeah, I’m probably gonna go with you. To be honest, you weren’t my first choice (just a bookmarked…[Read more]

I’ll try to check it out! It sounds cool, but I don’t know if I’m ready to sign up for reading another project right now. I’m sure there are some people on here who would, though!
Throwing out some tags…

I still feel like Jonathan’s brother might not be dead, but I know you tried to quench that.
Jonathan was pretty smart, and the Agents wanted him before, so they might try to get him to work for them. Or something. Maybe use Michael as leverage. Or they want them to help them defeat the rebels by taking information… 🫣

They should be on there, but it might take a minute. Sometimes I have to reload mine for it to work.

What are you doing to them?!
No, this is actually really interesting… I wonder what the Agents want with them. Probably nothing good.

Also, Wild Horse Publishing, if all my plans go as planned, will have a new costumer in fall hopefully (If I can earn enough money and figure out how to market a book. 😉 )

UPDATE
I have five stories left to edit. It’s going much faster than I thought since apparently Past Me is better at editing than I thought she was, and besides a few little tweaks, I’m mostly just rereading the stories (which is so much fun! Though it feels almost like cheating. I promise I am actually editing places where I see problems!) I…[Read more]
