@inkling-for-christ Welcome! I love this place on the Internet too, although I am also fairly new here…

I’m an LOTR fan as well, and it’s amazing that you’ve taught yourself how to write in Elvish. I really liked the movies and binge-watched behind the scenes on Youtube — mostly film though. NOWHERE near as dedicated as you.

@lifeofkatie: Thanks! And I’m glad to be here too.

@emma-flournoy: Thank you!

Wow so many questions 🙂

@Shannon: I don’t have much of a preference, but recently I’ve liked Grace Vanderwaal’s music, and I often sing worship music.

@Elizabeth: Thanks 😀

@Daeus: I first got started when I took the Common Writing Assessment in 3rd grade, and the person who graded it gave me a perfect score. And I’ve been reading for…[Read more]
