So……
I FINISHED!!!!
I had a crazy week,l but I was finally able to sit down yesterday and I read the whole thing!
It was well done. I like the story so much, and I’m really looking forward to the next book!!! I’m really excited for it! I definitely love Riker the best still, and I’m very happy that he and Leon have…[Read more] -

Ok… You know that one character? The one who is disturbingly realistic? If I make a thread sometime later this month about handling dark topics in a God glorifying way, this is why.
Meet Letice, Alwin’s mother. I love her, but I heard her story years ago and…[Read more]

Ok, I’m tagging a lot of people for this, but don’t feel obligated to reply.
So, I’ve gotten stuck in my current WIP, but as I work through that slowly, I want to return to an older WIP that I worked on over the summer and really want to refine. It’s only in a first draft, but I’d like to have a critique partner for it.
The type of critique…[Read more]-
Actually, I’mma remake the moodboards, hehehe. So they shall be revealed later this week. :PP

I replied but didn’t tag you. Not sure if you got it.

I would be willing to try and help with this. You know my views on Romance are rather different than norm, and I believe highschool romantic relationships aren’t healthy. But I’m willing to give it a shot.
I also do edit. I’m not a line-by-line editor, but I have worked as a plot/character/story editor before.
We do have different beliefs on…[Read more]-
I appreciate the offer!! Truly!
But like you said, we might not work super well together because of our different viewpoints. So yeah, right now I’d say no, but I will keep you in mind! :))-
No problem! I can be your last resort if no one else offers. 😉
-
Sounds good. 😉 Let me know if you want to be tagged when I post the chapters on here some time! :))
-
-
-
-
Mm. Sounds interesting, but I’m totally unqualified. I don’t think I’d be able to help much… Sorry… 😅😑
-
Hey no worries! 🤗
-
-
I’m sorry, I don’t think I can help you 🙁
-
That’s totally fine, girl! ☺️
-
-
I’m definitely interested in reading your novel, but I’ve read almost no YA, so I wouldn’t be much help.
-
No worries! I’ll be sure to tag you tho when I start sharing it on here!!
-
Awesome! 🙂
-
-
-
@esther-c I would love to help! This went into my spam for some reason, so I’m sorry I didn’t get back to you. Are you still looking for someone?
-
Actually…I think you might be perfect. You gave some great feedback on my short story, so I’m sure you could do the same for my novel! :))
I’ll PM you later this week with more details and the link to the doc. Thank you so much!!! 🤗-
Awesome! I love family and sibling dynamics, and I also read a good amount of YA, so this seems right up my alley! (Although I won’t be able to help much with the 90s references, haha.)
Do you still have my email from the short story critique?-
Yay yay!! (Oh I know, right?? I’ve asked my parents and some other older writers I’ve met through KDWC, and even though they gave me a lot to use [plus Google, lol], there’s still something difficult about getting it right since I didn’t live then 🤪)
Yes I believe so!-
@esther-c Yeah, that totally makes sense! I was gonna say, ask your parents xD. But I’m sure it’s still difficult.
Great!! 😄
-
-
I may have to get some YA recs from you sometime, because I struggle to find clean fiction that I would actually enjoy 😭
-
Oh definitely! I’m sure I can come up with a list. Middle grade stuff can be great if it’s well done, because content is so much better. 😉
-
@hybridlore
Please tag me if you post recommendations! I want to read YA, but it’s usually filthy and cringe. -
For sure!! Until you come across that one middle school relationship that somehow works out perfectly. 😂
-
-
Ok for some reason even though I still see your comments on the short story doc, it won’t let me view your email. 😅 Could you share that again with me so I can share the other doc?? I’ll tell you as soon as I see it if you don’t want to leave your email up.
-
Awesome! Tysm!! I’ll probably send you the doc tomorrow since I need to make a few notes on it first. :))
-
-
Ok I added you to the document! You should get an email about it I believe. (:
-
-
-
-
Hoo boy. I’d love to, but uhhhh…I wouldn’t be any help. I’m a terrible critiquer and my romance experience is practically nil. You would probably help me more than I help you….sorry!
Funny enough though, my own romance work (a fanfic) took place in 1970 in New Mexico. What are the odds?
-
Ahh, no problem! :))
No way! That’s so cool! XD-
Yeah it was just a consequence of how the original story was set up, but it’s funny to think about.
I doubt your characters will experience anything even close to mine though lol-
Oh dear, was it a Star Wars fanfic?? In that case, I hope my charries aren’t handling the types of weapons they use. 🤣
-
No, it was something else, but yeah there were a lot of weapons involved XD
-
My Star Wars fanfics don’t really cross over into our world. Yet.
-
Though I suppose in a fanfic, you could do whatever 🤷🏻♀️
-
-
Oh duhhhh 🤦🏻♀️ I’ve watched like all the Star Wars movies, I should know they don’t take place on earth 🤣
-
lolllll no biggie.

Oooo, a scene….
Leo does have a point. At least fighting the Nazis gives him an idea of purpose. Poor kiddo.
Poor Riker though. I’m rather proud of him. Leo definitely struggles to see the hurt in other people.

Jaybird replied to the topic Mood Boards/Aesthetics in the forum Characters 1 year, 7 months ago
The bois!!!! Yay!! It’s been a while. Their story is so fascinating/emotional/fantastic.

I’ll adopt Wolfgang. Or Leo. Or….
Or… Can I be the little aunt who makes them cookies when they feel down? XD

@ellette-giselle I am so, soooo glad you enjoyed Broken Shackles! 💜💜
Thank you so much for your support.
I’ve noted what you said and I can see where things got repetitive (something I’m still trying to work on😅). As far as Riker thinking his sins are greater, it honestly really depends. I based that part of his struggles based on my own battle…[Read more]
Oh I have enjoyed it! It was excellent!
I’m really, really looking forward to the last book! (I love endings, so I’m thinking it might be my fav!)
Anyhow, I hope that any criticism was helpful. Thank you again so much for writing these! You’re doing an amazing job and these books have been very inspiring!
