Koshka replied to the topic Switching Gears: I'm Writing An Allegorical Fantasy Now! in the forum Biblical Fiction 4 years, 11 months ago
Here are a few ideas;
Fear: messing up (past fixing), of becoming something terrible, to be nothing, to be something.
Misbelief: that his desire is wrong, that if he disappoints his father he will no longer be loved, that all these standards are just to keep him from fun.
Do you have a separate need as well, or are you using…[Read more]

@everyone
Sorry for the late reply, I’ve had a busy couple of days.
That picture is gorgeous! So cute! You’re a really good artist.😊 And I love Trumpkin.
I love your main character’s name. I feel like the cat is an interesting character …😁 And I love that you have a character called Nyx too!

Oh, those character struggles are very good. Your story line gives that pleasurable ache deep inside by which one knows it’s good.
Amen!

Oh, yay! I love it too! It sounds SO good! Like a book I’d read till four in the morning and have to stop at random parts to soak up every implication. Is it off the story of David?
By the by, that’s a beautiful cover/photo.

Thank you so much! That’s one of my best so far.

@elishavet-pidyon I used that sort of thing in my novel–my MC’s dad uses a few self-tailored expressions. “Crosshairs and cutlery, you just won’t give up, will you?”
@godlyfantasy12 I have a character named Nyx too! She is a good deal more annoying, though. She’s also female, and she’s a Deinonychus (a certain species of dinosaur).

@godlyfantasy12 Thanks, and that’s a good idea!
@jodi-maile Thank you!
@trahia-the-minstrel That actually is a good idea.
@e-k-seaver There are multiple species of creatures as well as humans in the story, and they each have a different naming system. So that’s why my names are really weird.

I agree. Beautiful design by a beautiful designer.
Your plans for owning a fennec are wonderfully complicated lol.I haven’t read too many Redwall either, I just really enjoyed the books I did. (read, that is.)
I’ve never heard of Mistmantle. I will look it up tho! -
Anatra replied to the topic Our Book Premises Nerd Space in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 11 months ago
Your book sounds very exiting! I love that idea.
Oh, I love animal books. When I was in elementary school and half way through middle school, those were the only books I’d read XD (btw I’m defiantly not saying books like that are only for kids. I still really enjoy them:)

Hey, @godlyfantasy12, would you mind if I drew Nyx? And if so, does he have any particular markings etc.?
-
Koshka replied to the topic Our Book Premises Nerd Space in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 11 months ago
That makes sense. Yes, I think I know what you mean. Like he can talk without speaking.
Thank you for the excerpt!

Jaybird replied to the topic Our Book Premises Nerd Space in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 11 months ago
Um, that’s amazing. Once again, did Nyx SPEAK?!

Koshka replied to the topic Our Book Premises Nerd Space in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 11 months ago
That’s a first draft? Wow. I love it! Did Nyx just speak?

Jaybird replied to the topic Our Book Premises Nerd Space in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 11 months ago
Yeah, nothing I wouldn’t mind reading myself, not to mention a ten year old at our church. Especially when I’m trying to make a very Christain point about the passing of mantles. No need the have my good be evil spoken of!
Ugh, yeah, it is so irritating when a word is placed in the wrong era. I mean, some words don’t matter,…[Read more]

Nyx sounds woundermous! Definitely work him in. He’s so cute! If you have any scenes you could share, I’d be thrilled.
My sister and I created a fox type creature for one of her books. It’s called a Knettel and is about the size of a SMALL house cat, a bit more sleek than most foxes, with more pointed ears and a white ‘V’ from…[Read more]

Thanks!
I love your titles! And your books sound cool — I love the fact you have this sibling aspect in 1 and 3😊. Nothing better than some good sibling banter and play offs. A question — are your books about actual animals, or hybrid human-animal type beings, or about humans who are part of a group that call themselves animals?
My sto…[Read more]

I do like it! I honestly couldn’t tell, but then I am the person who it took two books in an allegorical series before I realized Leinad was supposed to be Daniel. A’Grend is a good name though.
You have a fennec fox?! Ok, I love furry creatures in books, and foxes…*sigh* what in Nyx like? Does it’s name mean anything?

Koshka replied to the topic Our Book Premises Nerd Space in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 11 months ago
Your book sounds well beat out. Is it one book or a series? YES, it IS intriguing!
What inspired Possibility? It sounds good and deep. And squirrels are so neat.
I’ve read GE too. They’re wonderful books.
If it’s not too much of a spoiler, where did the name A’Grend come from?

Trahia the Minstrel replied to the topic Our Book Premises Nerd Space in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 11 months ago
@elishavet-pidyon Thanks!
All your stories sound cool — I love the sound of the feel in the first one; the second, I just love it in general, it sounds like the sort of story I love to write and read😊; the third — I don’t normally read animal stories, but yours sounds quite fun — have you read the Green Ember? That’s a good series for someone w…[Read more]
