THE BEST OF NEWS AND THE MOST BESTIEST ANSWER TO PRAYER PEOPLES!!!!!

Gladys Joy is officially HOME!!!

So my little sister was officially diagnosed with Down Syndrome, (we will need much prayer over the years for that) and she has three little holes in her heart, but they are not immediately threatening. Because of the weak muscle tone from DS,…[Read more]

@Daeus oh boy… 😛 Um. I have to say The Time Traveler’s Dilemma still takes the cake for me but if there really is another very popular book out there with a similar title, probably scratch it.
Fools in the Darkness… meh. Who wants to read about fools?
Key to the Future… I like it. It will probably grow on me. I especially like it because……[Read more]

@salome01w4g Haha! I’m still not sure I understand it all either.
I don’t know if it’s required for us bloggers or not. 🙁

@destiny do you have a link describing Google’s requirements or did you just hear about it through word of mouth?

@kate-flournoy @winter-rose @salome01w4g @corissa-maiden-of-praise Oh my! The debate continues. What I’ll probably do is poll my subscribers. So are there any of these you don’t like?

Corissa, it should be out in a little over a month.

@seekjustice I’m so glad you liked it. It is such a fantastic read. 🙂

Of those three, Fools in the Darkness is definitely the most intriguing. I’d actually say I like it best of anything else suggested so far; it’s enticingly enigmatic, and (from the perspective of someone who hasn’t read the book 😉 ) it grabs my attention and makes me want to read it.
So when can I expect it to be published? XD

*peeks in with glittering eyes*
*grins evilly*
*laughs maniacally and brings the roof down in a shower of plaster*

I am the wrong person to ask about this. XD My WIP was roughly 535,870 words as a finished second draft. I’m still cutting, but it will never be the length of a ‘normal’ book. 😛

That said, 70,000 sounds about the kind of…[Read more]

@salome01w4g She’s actually pretty much based off of me, so… yeah. We must have a lot in common. ;P 🙂
@mariposa *laughs dryly* A title? Is that really so important? 😛
No, no title yet. It is the most difficult book I’ve ever worked on as far as finding a title is concerned.

No, he mine, I tell you. If any of you want him to be happy, then let him be.

@Hope unfortunately that’s not how it works. *scowls*

@Daeus ooh! I really like the Time Traveler’s Dilemma. Like, really like it.

@graciegirl Thanks! I have a lot of fun taking pictures and finding verses to go with them- and God has given so many opportunities to do so with His marvelous creation! 😀
@jane-maree THAT COLLAGE. *dies* When can I read this book?!
@salome01w4g So glad you figured it out! That collage looks great!
Here’s a collage I did for a character in the…[Read more]

@clairec But… I couldn’t really join in that debate, since I’m not on either side. I’m not adamantly against or adamantly for coffee. I’ll drink it every once in a while if I need to stay awake and study (not that it does much good ;P ), but I definitely prefer hot chocolate. Arctic White Hot Chocolate, to be exact. 😀
@daughteroftheking YES TO…[Read more]

@salome01w4g @seekjustice Hey!

So ‘http’ and ‘https’ are names of two protocols (computer rules) that govern how an internet document gets transmitted to your screen.

‘https’ means the web pages are secured against hackers.

So if Google is requiring sites to use ‘https’ I’m guessing they’re trying to protect sites from hackers. But I haven’t…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy @emma-flournoy @clairec @emily @josiahdeboer @northerner @graciegirl @catwing @winter-rose @dragon-snapper

I came up with three more ideas

1. Fools in the darkness
2. The Time Traveler’s Dilemma
3. Key to the future

For 1 and 3, I would probably have the subtitle “a time travel novel”.

@clairec A lot of wordcount depends on genre. For a first time author, generally 60-90k is the way to go but some genres like fantasy/sci-fi are more like 90k-110k because of all the additional worldbuilding. My gut is that 80-100k would be fine for “historical fiction” since, like fantasy/sci-fi, there’s a fair bit of background information you…[Read more]

@Jane-Maree No, he mine, I tell you. If any of you want him to be happy, then let him be.
