You make some good points and may have saved a life. I had a character who I’d considered killing for drama, but I’m thinking I’ll keep her alive.
I would argue that sometimes shock value is a good reason to kill characters. For example, in KotLC the stakes are supposed to be so high, and the villains so evil, and yet all of the…[Read more]

So as you can see, the Empire has outposts along all boarders. So crossing boarders is not much of an option.

I didn’t post a map on this book. Just the first one. I can post that again.
they are in the caves right now, but they are drawing up plans to build a village up there.

they’ll be up in the mountains. If you looked on the map (which will be in the front of the book) you would see that the Empire controls these mountain ranges and the harbors beyond.

Hmm. It just seemed odd. I mean, Rolf is clearly needing a break. Roland is married…….
Yeah, we’ll run into a couple friends again.
Plus, I did want to focus on Leon and Julian a bit more. I feel like they are starting to drift a little bit. With Leon struggling physically, and Julian having trouble with what’s…[Read more]

Ah. Not sure what version I like better. Gravitating towards the one I already know, but only because it is familiar.
This is the version we sing at our church. Is it the same one your church uses?
Any thoughts on that? Do you think it’s good that it’s just back to Leon and Jul…

Ellette Giselle replied to the topic Final book in the The Flames of Hope Saga: The Dawn Will Come in the forum Novel Critique Requests 1 year, 4 months ago
Yes, it is.
Really?! That’s so cool!
This is the version of that psalm set to music that I always loved.
We also have another Psalm 13 hymn in our church too. I like this version best though. It just really gets the feel right.
So they are headed back now. I guess…

How long, oh Lord, how long
Will this go on, go on?
How long, oh Lord, how long
Will this go on, go on?Was this song inspired by Psalm 13? We have a similar hymn we sing at out church inspired by that Psalm.
So they are headed back now. I guess they couldn’t hide in the mountains forever. I think you chose just the right moment…[Read more]

NEXT SECTION!
“They’re back!” yelled a child’s voice.
Leon scrambled to his feet and ran for the entrance to the cave. Roland, Liesl and several others followed. They stepped out into the evening light just in time to see the hunt…

@elishavet-pidyon
Thank you! And I’m glad the examples made sense to someone besides me. The characters must be protected not only for themselves, but for the sake of story legacy. ⚔️Too hesitant to kill off characters who probably should actually die for the plot/ their own arc.
Some people are definitely more like that. I fall…[Read more]

Yes!!! I have.
That’s why I have all the karaoke cuts.
I was trying to send you the playlist I have because It has all the best versions. You see, they went in and muted the voices, and people had better tech than others to be able to do it. The ones I posted are the best.

Yeah, true.
At least it was cold enough that it killed him pretty quick.
Ugh. I sound so heartless and not at all like I was tearing up AGAIN when I edited that scene, even though I’ve been over it more times then I can count.
Anyways.

YES! That’s the one!!!!
Warning on the animations, a lot of the drawings are bad when it comes to the girls, (but then pictures of greek goddesses are known for having bad clothing)
But yes, that’s it.

I’m choosing to take an extra year of classes by myself, a super senior year. But it’s optional and I’m doing it to choose specific interests and decide if I want to pursue them or not.
Makes sense. My dad wants me to go to a community college for a year when I graduate for the same reason.
Ah yes, practical life skills. Must be nic…[Read more]

Ooo, there is instrumental for some of them.
I’ll check in the morning and shoot it over if there is. I have a collection.
Yes, Athena’s theme is so beautiful! Wait until god Games!!!! 😱

Chapter 25 out!
I don’t think I want this to be James. This is too similar to Eric. Both characters feel unappreciated, and grow depressed because they don’t fit in and feel. The only thing different is James has hope in The Saviour so he’s less self centered and is more outgoing.…[Read more]
