Does anyone know of any good Christian Writer Conferences? I’d love to go to a Writers’ conference or retreat sometime but am not sure where to start looking.

Hope Ann replied to the topic Series Title in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 8 years, 10 months ago
I like Sagas of Light and Epics of Light, but I’m afraid my novellas aren’t really long enough to qualify…
I might just stick with Legends of Light because that’s stayed my favorite so far.

I like Legends of Light…the downside is that the initials are LOL. Not that that has to be a problem, but still… 😉
So I thought I could do something like the Legends of Light Saga though that gets a bit long. My Dad suggested I look up other words for story and here are a few series titles I came up with. Any favorites?

One question, why didn’t the bad guys notice the policeman? And what happens to the second bad guy who should be watching Cobalt? Wait, that was two questions… 😉

Hope Ann replied to the topic Input on my logo please in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 8 years, 10 months ago
I like number 1…it’s really close between 1 and 4, but I think I like the slightly bolder lines of 1. It wouldn’t hurt for the font to be a little bolder and Tessa’s right…the e is missing in Lakeside. 🙂 But both Lakeside Publishing and Lakeside Publication sound cool. Though if you have ‘publishing’ then you get the cool twist with the final…[Read more]

@dbhgodreigns I have one quick question. I know, on kindle, there is a place for codes which people can put in to get a book on sale. Can one set up a code so that anyone with said code can get the book for free? Or is the lowest price for that $0.99 as well?

Hope Ann replied to the topic Dystopian Time Travel Story in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 8 years, 10 months ago
I agree with @Kate-Flournoy about the bad guy pretending he has all kinds of power to take over. Have you ever read A Connecticut Yankee in King Aurther’s Court by Mark Twain? You really should if you haven’t…it might give you some ideas (and besides, I love the story). In there, the MC is knocked from the 1800s (I think) into Aurtherian times.…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy I’m gad you think so. Though I was actually thinking about another…couple. 😉

Hope Ann replied to the topic Help with Romance in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 8 years, 10 months ago
Actually…umm (*blushes and averts eyes*) I was thinking of one of my own books in which I’ve done this (how well I’ve done it is for others to judge, but I think it came off pretty well). It is hard to find a book that has romance but where it’s not a super big part of the story…my mind is blank right now, but I’ll tell you if I think of any.

Welcome @Hannah-Krynicki! I love fantasy too. Are you working on a fantasy story right now?

Wow; I’m not even going to try to correct it…poetry isn’t my area of expertise, as you know. 😉 But just..wow. I loved it!

@writefury I’ve never read ‘The Quest for the Seven Castles’…is it good? In my series, each story deals with a separate and how it’s connected back to the Prince (love because of the prince, have inner peace because of trusting Him, etc.) They aren’t connected directly with each other. The theme which does run though the novellas is the Gospel…[Read more]

@Daeus It’s Smashwords, I think. Thanks, that should help. 🙂

Hope Ann started the topic Series Title in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 8 years, 10 months ago
I am writing a series of nine novellas; they are all retellings of fairy tales, but with an allegorical twist, each one portraying one of the Fruits of the Spirit (with a larger allegorical thread of the coming and sacrifice of the one true Prince running through all nine stories). Anyway, I’m trying to come up with a good title and was wondering…[Read more]

Another question…if no one answers here I might start a topic. 😉 Anyway, does anyone know how to publish an ebook which isn’t on kindle? By that I mean, how does one link their book directly from a website so others can download it for kindle, nook, etc. I’m trying to figure this out so I can have it on my website and then price match so it…[Read more]

Hope Ann replied to the topic The Best Book Ever in the forum Book Discussions 8 years, 10 months ago
I love some of the descriptions used in the prophets; Joel 2:2 is one of my favorite examples (and the only one I could think of at the moment):
A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any…

Titles and endings. Also middles, plots, characters, and sometimes even beginnings. And writing instead of staring out the window. 😉
