Oh. You’re absolutely right. *Facepalms*

@esther-c @theducktator @folith-feolin @trailblazer @grcr

Okay! I have finally remembered (or was reminded by The Ducktator) that it is now time to discuss the book! So what did you think? What did you find interesting? Is there anything you’d like to point out?

Also: sorry I took so long.…[Read more]

Awesome! This is perfect.

Ok, I have one. This will be mostly for guys, but if any girl’s have ideas…[Read more]

@calyhuge @thearcaneaxiom @folith-feolin @otherworldlyhistorian

Ellette would love some feedback on the scene above, It is about a male character in grief, and it’s mostly troubleshooting at this point.

Looks like we’re reading A Basket of Flowers by Christoph von Schmid! 90% of people voted for it. We also didn’t really get many requests to shorten or lengthen the time span to read it, so we’ll stick to a month. Discussions will start August 15th.

Have fun!

I’ve tried several times to post and Wyoh keeps eating it, so I’m keeping this short and sweet because I have no effort left: Time to vote. Here is the link.

Happy summer vacation!

This is a final call to anyone who would like to make suggestions. Tomorrow we’re going to move on to voting, if I can get to it tonight or tomorrow morning. Otherwise we’ll have to wait another day, because I’m kind of bogged up with summer school. Thanks! 🙂

Hello! I think it’s really cool you guys have a book club going on and was wondering if I could participate in the next book discussion (whatever it is).

@theshadow That would be wonderful! So basically we’re going to have about a week to suggest books we’d like the group to read; there’s the link below you can click on to do that. Then, once w…[Read more]

So it’s been a long time since I posted here and the world has somehow tiptoed into June. I don’t know how. So I’m thinking we should most probably get a move on with our next book. I think I’ll post the forms for suggestions tomorrow. Any thoughts?

but school just ended so I guess I have more time now (?).

(?) Yeah, that’s what I said last summer, but I was barely on. Hopefully I’ll be able to more this year

Hades Town Cast album

I haven’t seen Hadestown yet, but I’ve heard some of the songs and I love them!

Were you the one who also mentioned liking Andor and Dune? If so, then I think you and him would get along pretty well.

Um… hi 👋

It’s been like a solid year since I’ve been on here regularly, but I’m back!! 👉👈😬😅 I just had a wonderful mix of school, life, regular busyness, and of course the ever terrible writers block. But I’m starting to…[Read more]

It’s been nearly a month since we began to read The Screwtape Letters! Just a reminder to start thinking about what to say when we discuss it tomorrow and in the coming days. I can’t believe how fast time passes. Can anybody else relate when I say that time seemed to go slow…[Read more]

Thank y’all for all of your thoughts! They were IMMENSELY helpful!! (and I realized something about Frida {the stepmother} today that I didn’t realize before…let’s just say she deserves the nickname “Evil Lady” even more now😭😡 poor Felix *sobs*)

and with that, I will be changing Felix a bit (mostly…[Read more]

Awesome!! Ooh, robotics sounds amazing, I’ve never really done anything like that!!! Ah, yeah, same, sleep should be easier lol. I just tore a ligament in my knee yesterday so it’s been interesting haha.

How is everyone?? I feel like an old veteran returning XD

Home |…[Read more]

Yes, the votes are in! It looks like literally EVERYONE voted for The Screwtape Letters by C. S. Lewis. 

We’re also going to have a month to read each book, with an exception for very long books or very short books.

I’m thinking the month should be from today or maybe to…[Read more]

I have tried twice now to post and Wyoh has eaten both.

There is a voting deadline: April 13th 2024 at 7:30 PM 

Here is the link to vote on what books we want! (Finally XD)

I know she says she is a Christian, but apparently she made Dumbledore gay in one of the Fantastic Beasts films. (I haven’t watched them, I’ve just heard this.) So I don’t think she really is. But I do see the parallels.

@stephie

CRUNCHY APPLES FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!! And yeah, we are somewhat off topic.😆Is it time for suggestions?

Hey Historian and Folith! Long time no see!

@calyhuge @folith-feolin @otherworldlyhistorian @godlyfantasy12 (yes I am still consistently tagging u) @keilah-h @jonas @rae

So I’m finally sharing my own writing, at least some of it, I doubt I will share much beyond a few chapters, but we’ll see. A lot of you know me to be a…[Read more]

I just checked out your blog, it’s super cool! I will definitely keep checking it out. Our family and friends just love to play board games 🙂

Wow….

That was certainly interesting.

For those of you who are like “They’ll destroy everything the book stands for!” may I remind you that the original Narnia films as well as the Lord of the Rings films and their sequel shows were probably made by non-Christians, too? (the…[Read more]

Yall this conversation is to interesting not to let myself get involved lol. I didn’t know there was going to be a narnia tv show XD! That’s interesting news.

From what I’ve seen, great Gerwig is good at following source material. Her 2019 adaptation of little women although strays a little bit…[Read more]

So weird…  I’ll try it again.

@folith-feolin

Oh, that makes more sense! Well, I’m glad she isn’t anti-Christian, even though she’s not a believer herself.

Yeah! I didn’t mean it came from the director, but I just saw it online and I guess assumed that’s where they were taking this… anyway, thanks for clearing tha…[Read more]

I did not intend any hate towards Netflix or Disney, or any of the people working for them or directors. I apologize. I will mention that Netflix has had some shows that were truly Evil in the past, but I don’t think those shows are on there anymore and I know it doesn’t have any connection to this conversation. Disney really does…[Read more]

Looking back on my post I can see I was not in a good mood last night XD

I read through some articles, and I do not have any grudges against Gerwig specifically, as I have actually been looking forward to seeing the Barbie movie, and I think she has a great style, similar to Series of Unfortunate Events. When I saw she would be…[Read more]

Interesting, that makes a lot of sense. So it was basically a different dialect of Latin from a different era.

Yeah, Nelson’s I just like sharing, it’s a topic that I don’t really think needs to be extrapolated any further, it simply needs to be known.

That’s really interesting, is that actually how it was historically? Did that actually serve any purpose to pronounce words differently when sung? Now I’m just thinking of worldbuilding…[Read more]

Oh no! I’m so sorry that happened, it’s so annoying when KP does that😅

That’s cool, I’ll have to look into that! Is it sung in French? Because that would be cool to listen to.

3D modeling sounds really cool, I’ve always wanted to get into it myself, but have always been too worried about crashing my computer. Are you required to…[Read more]

Hi Folith, Hi Kathleen! How’s life been on your sides? I really don’t enjoy pestering people, but I’ve been wondering if either of you are intending to continue our conversations. It has been well over a month now, and the longer you don’t do something, the less likely your going to do it. I understand completely if…[Read more]

Yea. Me and a couple of friends are going to see it.

It’s kind of funny because when I heard about the barbie movie it was from one of my friends at quizbowl and he was like it looks really cool and I was like how is a Barbie movie going to be cool and so we all watched the trailer and now I am kind of excited to see it. I…

[Read more]

Oooh, those sounds interesting. I’ll check them out!

@mineralizedwritings

Awesome!

Yeah, for sure.

So, I thought this could be where we discuss our villains for a while. What are their motivations? What’s their villainous style? Their strengths? Weaknesses? Why is the hero connected to them?

I am actually working on a villain (I was working on the character bio…[Read more]

Here are some quotes by L.M. Montgomery! They are so good!💗💗💗

@loopylin @folith-feolin

Great quotes!!

I forgot this one. How could I forget this one??

’I don’t know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve’

Thank you guys! I’m so grateful to have all you helping me out! This will help a lot!

Ahh, yeah, that makes sense. I’m excited to hear your thoughts though!

Oh, btw, are you still working on a response for our earlier discussion?

It’s very true, and like I said, that’s a very valid point, there are many artworks long before the roman empire as well, but these newer ones are simply there, and they haven’t been shown to be forgery yet, so say we do take it as valid, then what does it mean? Perhaps the romans did talk about them, but we didn’t…[Read more]

Certainly the ones like that cave painting or the dead “plesiosaur” the Japanese caught which turned out to be a decayed shark were misinterpreted, but there are others which are too obviously…[Read more]

I never necessarily said it does, it’s just one of many examples that suggest the idea. though I don’t really follow the question. Are you just talking about how 500AD is way too recent to believe that dinosaurs were around that time, and simply got scrubbed from history? If so, that is a valid point, and I honestly don’t know, but…[Read more]

That is interesting! Very similar to the first one mentioned in the book, which was a different painting, but might have a similar explanation. He actually showed a similar x-ray technology used in a very different artwork in the Carlisle Cathedral in England, and it showed two very distinct species of sauropods with linked…[Read more]
