@whalekeeper

I really love all of your points💖😂

(and just so you know, your fun little comedic WIP is amazing and still has wonderful characters and amazing lessons and values within it even though it’s ‘just for fun’ 😉🥰)

@theshadow I definitely agree with @whalekeeper on this one

and you can also just talk to God about it. He knows, He gets it, He understands more than you may think He does and cares more than any of us could ever imagine.

He cares about what you care about, and I agree with Whaley that you really don’t have to stress😊 Unless it’s clearly…[Read more]

@whalekeeper AHHHHH I LOVE IT SO MUCHHHHHHH

and they were both on point🤌🏻 especially Fin😂 he was undeniably in character

It’s also funny bc I was going to log on and ask if you were still working on this yesterday but decided against it XXXXD

Thinking about my opinions on this topic just a few months ago…y’all, I’m so glad God is helping me grow XD

@rae @whalekeeper @mineralizedwritings I love how we can all peacefully discuss our different opinions on this💖

Y’all are the best  : )

I agree with you, Min! Writing God in a story is difficult, and it makes it even harder depending on the genre you write. I don’t think all books have to have God be explicitly stated or mentioned or even…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Exactly! 🤪 Thx for responding to my little ramble 😚

You’re so welcome 💖🥰💖

Oof, characters can get annoying. I still have some from when I was a Teeny-Weeny Whaley, which is a pretty good record of remembering concepts, but nothing can stay on your mind consistently without stretching its stay at times.

I love them, but they can drive…[Read more]

and just life updates too if y’all want!!

(I may be late responding, but I promise I’ll respond at some point😅)

and AHEM @whalekeeper

How are Marcel and Seb and all of the babies?? 🥺 I have to know

I honestly need a writing/world/character update from all of y’all XD I’ve been so absent, and I need the updates. 😂 idk who to tag, but y’all know who you are👀

And thinking about how I used to say/think every story had to explicitly state God…I’m so glad that has changed, because it has made the Christian writing world even more beautiful than it already was.

@whalekeeper

Yes, so true! What we go through can make or break us. It really depends on how we deal with the hard things happening around us and to us, and how much we rely on God vs ourselves.

and I love what you said in response to @rae

I think there’s a place for stories that present the Gospel, but also stories that may not necessarily…[Read more]

@theducktator @esther-c @whalekeeper @keilah-h @theshadow @grcr

(I’m going to have Leon/Riker vaguely remember being here before, but it’s up to you as far as Crosshair goes, Keilah 😉)

Leon

Light crested down, in a direct line into his gaze. Leon groaned and rubbed at his eyes. Where was he? Cold stone walls…cold stone floors with mere…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings

I think I like writing things that can be dark because it’s relatable. I find that some of the Christian places I’ve known in the past aren’t willing to deal with the idea of intense hardship. I mean most of us live in a developed country, have access to food and water, and don’t have any kind of life threatening persecu…

I so wish I could share the Marvel edits I made with y’all 😅😭

@ellette-giselle Just a friendly reminder that a book can glorify God without explicitly stating Him. :3

I used to believe the same thing, and it’s totally ok if that’s your personal conviction and I’m not here to argue, but as I’ve grown and met other Christian authors who don’t necessarily mention God but still show aspects of Christianity,…[Read more]

@rae I love Chase!!! 🥰🥰 Great job!!!
