CONGRATULATIONS A MILLION TIMES OVER! That’s so awesome!!!

Ah! I’m second. Well, welcome to the bestistest place on the internet @aysia-serene.

btw, people, Daeus likes this story.

And yes. This is the correct way to post a critique thingy. 😉 For the forum, at least. If you wanted an excerpt critiqued by the actual staff and posted on the home page, you’d have to submit it by email as stated in the submission guidelines.

@Abigail-Blomberg I really love the idea of taking the story from Joseph’s perspective, and I love the symbolism of a songbird you chose to represent their love. Great choice. There were only a few things I noticed that actually needed work— for one, you seem to randomly switch back and forth between past tense and present tense. That can be…[Read more]

@Winter-Rose yessss. All that. The theme definitely wouldn’t have been as powerful, nor the characters as dynamic, if it hadn’t ended the way it did.

Ha! That’s awesome, @leumeister! So would James be from earth?

Welcome back, @abigail-blomberg.

One of the best ways to navigate the forum is from the home page. At the very bottom, there is a list of the five most recently started topics. That’s the easiest way to tell if there’s a new thread. On the bottom of the sidebar on this site, we also have a “recent forum replies section.” That gives you the five…[Read more]

Yeah, @leumeister, give us the dig.

Ha! Oh dear…

@kate-flournoy You stole! I’m so happy. You’re catching on.

@Daeus I literally just copied and pasted that into a word file… 😀

@Rolena-Hatfield probably also in places where people of faith were suspected to be in high numbers gatherings over three or four could be prohibited. It’s possible too if you were suspected to be a Christian they could limit the number of ‘outreach’ devices or opportunities you were allowed to have. Basically try to isolate you, in a non-violent…[Read more]

@Daeus sackcloth may be a little extreme… XD
Good point. That’s true.

@his-instrument Ok, I’m back to give you my rant on self-publishing and marketing.

So, I love the self-publishing. Maybe I’ll change my mind when I’ve tried it, but I don’t think so. You have full control and full rights. Check. You get way more royalties. Check (publishers keep the vast majority of the profit, and in many cases, they don’t even…[Read more]

Though I will point out that sometimes we think there’s a certain degree of mystery to a verse, when there really isn’t. There are legit mystery verses, but not all the ones we identify as such. This probably is a real legitimate mystery verse, but I don’t want to say so right off the bat.

@kate-flournoy Sorry. Yes, I see what you meant. That type of thing just irks me enough that I flew into a tirade without reading what you said carefully, for which I again repent in sackcloth and ashes.

@Daeus no, you’re right. I agree. What I meant was I don’t understand it clearly enough to actually state for a certainty what it means, because as you pointed out there is information missing. Obviously it means what it says, but it didn’t give us the whole story, therefore there is that part of it I don’t understand.
