Digital art of Tauren! I’ve been using a graphics tablet lately and I really like it!

@felicity

yeah! I agree. Age range is important, but that doesn’t mean every book has to be good for every age range. Sometimes reading a good book where you can relate to a difficult struggle of the MC can help you understand something you went through. Honestly, a good book can feel like therapy when you need it. Not that we should go to books…[Read more]

A song that describes a lot of my teenage characters is My Place In This World by Micheal W. Smith. I would recommend this song to ALL TEENS and young adults everywhere because it is so true and so relatable.

Okay cool! I’ll totally add that to my list of songs to listen to. I have a song that I absolutely love, and is so good. It’s cal…[Read more]

Next, Albert Moore!

He was one the fun-loving middle children of the Moore family. Until the war breaks out. They live in the South and don’t agree with slavery. They plan to escape to the North… but before they do, Albert and his father are drafted. They has no choice but to accept. They for…[Read more]

Ok!! I’ve got the moodboards!

First, Ethan Graham!

Being the first born son of the Graham family and having a younger brother and sister, he has a lot of weight on his shoulders. But his parents appreciate how responsible he is. When a war breaks out in between the North and South, Ethan e…[Read more]

1. Magic – When I think of magic in my fantasy worlds I usually think of it more in terms of the magic being something like physics or electricity rather than the occult. I find this can help explore unique worlds that work differently than ours and have different cult…

@mineralizedwritings @esther-c @felicity @loopylin @koshka @starofthenorth @folith-feolin

This is such a great topic, and I’ve been thinking about this lately too. I normally stay away from writing any kind of magic, but I believe that if you clearly show that it is wrong and evil, it’s okay to feature a little bit in your book, if you have to. B…[Read more]

@felicity

I’ve self-published a standalone short story, two short story collections, and a novel. I prefer self-publishing, personally, for the freedom it provides and for the opportunity to work with my own choice of collaborators (editors, artists, etc.), but I would like to try traditional publishing down the road as well for the sake of…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

I need to add more Lukas!! There are times I forget to. 😅

@felicity

Yay!!

@mineralizedwritings

Thanks so much for the tips!! And there are a lot of important moments sprinkles throughout the book.
And yes, you should keep reading. Nothing outside the Orb is creepy. 🙂

@felicity

I love this!! Each chapter gets better and better! You did really good showing the sibling dynamic. That sounds like our house 😂. I love to draw, and my little brother is always drawing on my drawings 😅😆. I love Natalyia! Her name is really similar to mine! My real name is Natalie 😊.

I could feel the tension when Tato (is that their…[Read more]

@lightoverdarkness6 @felicity @koshka @starofthenorth

Oh! This discussion is great! XD I’ve only read the books too.

My favorite characters are, in order: Sam, Aragorn, Frodo, Pippin, Faramir, Merry, Legolas. (Insert long list of characters I can’t remember at the moment)

At least, I think that’s the order. It’s hard to decide. XD

Frodo is…[Read more]

@felicity

I believe Tolkien wrote Sam as the central protagonist in a book with many other MCs. Frodo and Sam are the two most important, and the hobbits are the focus characters. Other MCs are Pippin, Merry, Aragon, ect.

I actually wrote a research argument paper over this question for college. It was quite interesting to dig into.

Uh oh, I…[Read more]

@felicity

Yep, @arien and I are sisters!

I’m sure you two have loads of fun talking WIPs!!!!!

Haha, we sure do! And stay up into the wee hours of the morning (okay, maybe not that long) thoroughly discussing them 🤣😁

@esther-c @felicity

Thanks for your suggestions about making moodboards! I’ll have to try it sometime.

@lightoverdarkness6 @felicity

So I was just reading through y’all’s conversation, and you talked so much about Sam and Frodo…

Ahhhh!!!! Those two are my absolute favorite favorite characters of LotR. Admittedly I’ve only read the books, but that means I have a closer appreciation for what the author intended, right?

Sam is so wonderful, and I…[Read more]

@lightoverdarkness6 @felicity @freedomwriter76 @theloonyone @mineralizedwritings

@felicity, the thing that Len gave to Amidala is definitely important. Sometimes I actually forget to mention it in future chapters 😅, but it will play a big role in the future! 😏

Next two chapters! (I already have like twenty written, so that’s why I’m getting the…[Read more]

@felicity

That’s interesting, I’ve only written present tense and never considered that being an issue. I can’t say much about that because I use an omniscient narrator. My novel is the plan for my graphic novels, which basically have no perspective. I mean it would be odd to have a graphic novel panel where only one character’s thoughts are…[Read more]

@felicity

I know right? Sam is the absolute hero!!!!! (I mean, I guess Frodo went through a lot, so, I’ll give him a little credit.

Yes!! He is! “I can’t carry it for you…but I can carry you!” I LOVE that part. So sweet😢🥰. Yeah, I’m sorry Frodo, you went through a lot too😅😭.

Now THAT is one of the best parts ever! Gimli and Legolas having a co…
