@anyone who cares which will probably be nobody but ehh.

I have been learning to animate in Blender…..

and I believe I have partaken in one of the most glorious feelings known to man:

animating something and watching it move by itself, and thinking that this has been your greatest creation thus far.

Was this how God felt when he created…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal @theducktator I get into enough ruckuses with my 1 younger brother, anything more than that would be C R A Z Y.

Other than Kefa’s “My brothers probably hate me” problem, what’s it like?

oh and you’re welcome for the feedback!

@freed_and_redeemed oooh I like it!

have you already started the 3rd book?

@ellette-giselle ohhh cool! yeah Tron’s soundtrack is a great one to have on in the background when you’re writing, or sometimes I put it on when I’m in the car on a long trip.

This is from the TV show, which was pretty god but only lasted like 1 season.

@ellette-giselle I don’t think you’re playing with demonic powers.

Putting an actual detailed ritual by the Imperial priests could be, for example, but simply the mention that a pagan temple has an evil presence hovering over it is, if anything, as realistic as you can make it.

The music track? Oh, it’s funny cause it is a synth-heavy…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle what you said about the temple feeling evil to Joseph makes sense to me. I, personally, have never been to any form of pagan temple (not even the ruins of one, that I can remember anyway) , but honestly the very fact that I would be standing in what was once used for or currently used for the worship of a false god (especially if…[Read more]

@rae you–

you actually liked it??

wow.

thank you!

three months of my life weren’t wasted writing this!

My only mental note is it was pretty obvious that Spy was Huntresses and Scouts father from the point that Huntress entered his room and saw his stuff.

This is probably a relic of earlier drafts, in which Huntress figured it out while she…[Read more]

Hi everyone, sorry I ghost this topic so much, but my dad could really use some prayer right now.

We just called an ambulance to take him to the hospital and my mom went with him. He’s been having really bad stomach pain that keeps him from eating and sleeping and makes it difficult to breathe. He hasn’t been able to work because of it and it’…[Read more]

@rae you were asking about my currently unnamed fanfic for a fandom I don’t even suggest getting into?? lol

not finished editing it but here, delete the space or something lol

@ellette-giselle

You two have some issues with trusting authors. I don’t deserve this at all. What have I ever done to warrant this?! (lol)

I am an author and I don’t trust myself, so there! Lol.

trust me (or don’t haha), we all have done plenty to warrant being very sus of each other. It’s nothing to be ashamed of, or well it kinda is, but is…[Read more]

@liberty (moving the convo over here so we don’t spam the short story topic 🤪)

Well, I’m slowly getting back into a rhythm too. I’m starting to write consistently as well. I’m hoping to start working on a WIP. I’ve also started freelancing and am writing for an Amish magazine, which is very exciting! So far, I’ve had one story win 3rd place in th…

@liberty

Hey!! I appreciate you reaching out. You’re so sweet! 🤗

Things are going pretty well right now! Volleyball made our schedule crazy over the past six months, so it’s nice now that it’s over and things have slowed down some. I’ve started working on some study rhythms for school to keep my grades up since I fell behind in some lessons…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

 even if we’re glad the character didn’t die, it often feels a little artificial.

While I agree with you that maybe killing off Adrian is the best course of action, especially considering this is supposed to be a realistic missionary story, I’ve also seen a story where it’s the opposite: They killed off a character because it…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

Thanks, it’s not that I feel ashamed, it’s that I feel like I am being self absorbed and selfish just asking for prayer for myself.

No, that’s not wrong. Especially in your situation. How many siblings do you have? Are you the youngest, oldest, or in the middle?

I’ll be praying for you. Is there a name I can refer to you…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I actually didn’t do the last contest, but I’ve been keeping up with this topic anyway. 😛 You picked a really interesting prompt… so I might just participate this time! We’ll see….

@the_lost-journal

Aw man, that sounds really difficult. I understand annoying siblings, but I can’t imagine how hard it is for you right now. 🫂 I will definitely be praying! <33

And don’t feel bad about asking for prayer! That’s what Christian community is for 🤗

@whalekeeper In my mind, I see it as:

Protagonist–The main character or character whose arc we’re following. The POV character in a first-person story.

Hero–Subtype of protagonist. Usually someone with a sense of good and evil, a person with moral standards they won’t break unless in an extreme situation, a person worth emulating at least by…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Yes, the defeating the prophesy junk is stupid unless there is a very valid reason. For instance, I had a character in a book who was cursed by the gods of his people because of a prophesy, but when he came to Christ he was able to flip that on it’s head and say, “you know what, I was cursed. But so are all of you. We are all cur…
