@dragon-snapper A villain’s minions who are great shots. Also a petition to include @Michael-stanton as the evil overlord. And possibly give Josiah a brother who contradicts him at every turn and is obsessed with hair-styles (all kinds on everybody). XD

@delightinlife Everyone else has pretty much covered it. I tend to force myself to write even when I don’t feel like it, that way by the time I do feel like it again I have something done. 😉
Another thing that keeps my mind fresh is working on a few projects at once. I generally have one main project, but I’ll be working on one or two others…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper This is hysterical! Just… just everything. The raspberries and ice cream. And Kate would so be the one to bring home baby dragons… XD And when Josiah came in with a beard and a frog I about died.
I have two favorite lines.
Kate smiled, “Aviur and Kai.”
Daeus’ façade melted into a frown. Was he mistaken, or did both of those… -

@aratrea The 14th works the best for me, but I could probably swing the other dates too, if they are picked.

@daeus I…umm, may have filled it out too. Sorry. I’m not sure how to go back and edit my response. Also, is there anywhere you’ll be sharing the results of the survey?

Hope Ann replied to the topic Discussion for Video Nineteen: Tying Theme Together in the forum Discussion Questions 7 years, 7 months ago
@aratrea Speaking of books and themes, have you read The Ball and the Cross by G. K. Chesterton? I started rereading it part way through this course and the theme…! Every single conversation and interaction all relate back to the theme and focusing question and experiments in living. I love the story and the philosophical arguments and all, but…[Read more]

What @audrey-caylin said. 😀 Incorporate all I’ve learned into my future novels.
I also want to study the books I read and movies I watch to practice figuring out themes and experiments in living. Basically, lots of practice on the writing end, lots of analyzing on the reading end. And occasionally rewatching a course video.
This seriously is…[Read more]

Time for a party!!! The event? I launched a novella today! *distributes ice cream and cheesecake* *steals confetti from Sarah to toss around* My third fairy tale retelling – this one is a Hansel and Gretal novella. Great fun to write (well, for the most part) and also exciting to be able to release and forget about while I work on my next project.…[Read more]
