freedom

@grcr you have no idea how relieved I am to hear that someone believes the same😂 I only know 1 family irl that don’t celebrate Christmas, and it often feels like my family is alone in what we believe about Christmas, and tbh it can get low-key lonely at times

We just personally believe that God deserves better than recycled material, that He…[Read more]

Also important to note that Americans saw/knew Christmas as a Pagan holiday until the 1800s when it became “popular” to celebrate Christmas partially because of an influx of German/Irish immigrants who regarded Christmas as a celebration of Jesus’ birth

@theshadow

Hiii. I’m gonna be the first on here to say that I don’t celebrate Christmas, and neither does my immediate family (meaning parents/siblings). :3

(and that’s one reason why Christmas will be pretty much absent from everything I write as well🤷🏻‍♀️)

However, I don’t look down on anyone that does. Celebrating or not celebrating…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings I love it!!

@ellette-giselle

15 snowballs!? GIRLLLLLLL😭😭

how dare you

also, Eli is there, he was just with Jonathan and the other boys. Riker didn’t really say hello to everyone in the first place, plus that’s not going to be the full scene (if it even makes it into the book). Don’t worry, all of Riker’s kids are…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle @liberty @hybridlore

Here’s your 700 (actually a little over) for the 14 snowballs y’all threw at me.

ridiculous amount of snowballs

Y’all gotta chill XD

Mostly you, Ellette😤

😆

Riker nudged the front door open, walking into the small foyer. He stepped aside to give Leon room to get inside and glanced around the…

@theducktator

Don’t worry, he will die a well-deserved horrible death.

😅

I still wish his story didn’t have to end that way😭

14 snowballs!?!?!?!?!?!??!

Y’ALL

fine

*cracks knuckles*

I’m gonna get 700 words written

@ellette-giselle also with the email question you asked, the one you have will totally work

@the_lost-journal ok, calm down😂, he’s the main villain of a ww2 WIP and is thus a N*zi

@ellette-giselle mmm idk. I don’t think you do know what SC this is👀

@koshka it is helpful, actually.

I need help with Slavic culture😅 I know next to nothing, and Google is not helpful💀

but I’m glad you’re excited!! I am too and honestly can’t wait for everyone to read book 3 even tho book 2 isn’t even out yet😫

@ellette-giselle

AHH Werner looks amazing😍😍😍

also, it’s been in hardcover the whole time??? I think??? 😅 Amazon set it up to be all 3, so🤷🏻‍♀️ the cover is the same and everything, it’s just hardcover and more expensive

and if life allows, I’d love to beta read your book, Ellette! and yes, I can help look out for German culture for sure😉 I’m…[Read more]

totally not talking about a lovely side character that y’all are gonna love in my WW1 WIP and the one whose death begins Hans’ hatred against Jews

totally not🤠

that moment when you start writing a side character more, realize you love them so much, and then realize they have to d!e for the plot

🤠

the 20s really marked the beginning of people turning away from traditional values, something the USA tried to go back to in the 50s before all fell apart in the 60s…and we’ve just gone downhill from there🤷🏻‍♀️

Better in some ways, a whole lot worse in others.

@whalekeeper

Hiiii 👋🏻 So, I will first say that a lot of my research has been sporadic or else focused on a single specific topic, so I honestly don’t remember a lot of sources I used for a lot of research by this point XD

And most of my research is focused on WW2😅

But each of the decades were really marked by specific things:

The 1910s was…[Read more]

@whalekeeper I love that!!! <3

@esther-c

HEY!!!

@ellette-giselle (*hands you tissues*) @liberty

YESSS I WANNA WATCH BONHOEFFER SO BAD😭😭😭

And yes, Liberty, I have written 2 novels with Leon/Riker as the MCs. The Broken and Redeemed Trilogy is solely theirs.

Book 1 is out already and has been published since July this year, and the 2nd one will (HOPEFULLY…we’ll just have to see😅) be released…[Read more]
