@theliterarycrusader It’s nice to meet you! Welcome to the bestistest place on the internet (YES, I said it first)!
I’m definitely a night owl, too. 🙂 I can never go to bed early, and I can’t sleep during the day (unless I’m really, REALLY tired). 😉

I’m a “Storm” trooper. I (hopefully) have better aim though.

Haha. It’s so true, though. The…[Read more]

Howdy folks. I don’t normally bring it up here, but I try to write most days from around 10-12. Anyways, this is one of those days. If you’re thinking about writing now, that’d be cool, or if you’re just stopping by and want to tag me to make sure I’m still at it, that might be some good accountability too.

@kate-flournoy I actually just finished reading it recently. I wouldn’t say it’s complete junk, but I wouldn’t recommend it either. Main reason is the ending was incredibly disappointing, which is almost funny because the whole reason I read it was because someone told me he thought the ending was amazing. It wasn’t. It was supposed to be tragic,…[Read more]

@bluejay I can do that.

Hey guys, has anyone on here read The Hunchback of Notre Dame, by Victor Hugo? I haven’t, but I’m loving Les Miserables to BITS and I’ve been wanting to read it. I thought I’d get others’ opinions before I do, though, because unfortunately I’ve learned that classical authors can write inspiring masterpieces AND complete junk. :/

@kate-flournoy @bluejay I’m writing till at least eight, maybe eight fifteen.

@corissa-maiden-of-praise *Chuckles* Yes, people often think I’m older than I am. One guy actually thought I was my dad, married, and with six kids — thereby at leat age 35 or so. I’m actually 18 now though.

@Daeus flipping through old topics and I just thought I’d drop you a line and let you know your argument makes more sense than mine looking back. I agree. 🙂 Duty is ours, consequence is God’s, and better to follow what the Bible commands than what it possibly does not condemn. ‘Preciate you being patient and gracious through the intricacies of…[Read more]

@Aella I would love to do (or at least try) NaNo someday, ‘but today is not that day!’ (Since we’re going with battle speeches here. *wink*) Mainly, life is too busy for that at this point. I wish you all luck though. 😀

@winter-rose I love it, Gabrielle! So funny. I love the ending: “I want to eat it.” 😉 Great job!

@winter-rose I love it, Gabrielle! So funny. I love the ending: “I want to eat it.” 😉 <3

@winter-rose I love it, Gabrielle! So funny. I love the ending: “I want to eat it.”

Sorry, I kinda just finished.

@corissa-maiden-of-praise Oh, yeah. I agree some stuff doesn’t belong in fiction. Have you read my article All Art Is Christian (titled somewhat provocatively)? It lays out my thoughts on this and similar issues.

@corissa-maiden-of-praise Hmm, I can’t seem to remember the book well enough to evaluate it again.

By the way, it sounds like you’ll want to avoid the three musketeers and the hunchback of notre dame. I seem to have more leniency with a book than you do, but I honestly wouldn’t recommend those books for anyone. Thought you might want to know.

@corissa-maiden-of-praise Ah, I see. For my part, I seem to remember that this was all where the characters were starting, not where they were headed (except a few which I can’t remember at all), but it’s been a while.

So would you consider yourself as valuing clean content above theme?

@corissa-maiden-of-praise Here should be fine.

@aella I can’t say for sure, but I’m hoping too. My editing is first priority for me, but November should hopefully be a lot lighter on that side of things. If so, I’m hoping to write 50,000 words or more. I’ve never actually done NaNoWriMo before, but I essentially keep up a NaNoWriMo schedule most of the year nowadays.

As for advice, since…[Read more]

@corissa-maiden-of-praise Really? I haven’t read those in a long time, but The Hidden Hand and The Prisoners Of The Sea were my two favorites. You mind sharing that critique of yours?
