The difference with the graphic murder/adultery thing is that those are real, while Linus’ magic system is made up. Thinking about murder and adultery is different than thinking about pretend magic.

@theducktator   @linus-smallprint

My thoughts are not that a reader will be tempted to use magic. It’s just the fact of putting those images in their mind. Same as why we don’t write super graphic scenes or Rated R type scenes. It’s not that we’re worried the readers will graphically kill someone or commit adultery if they read it, it’s the f…[Read more]

Oh, I almost forgot!

That section you just read has some HUGE changes for Joseph. What are your thoughts on where he has just arrived spiritually? Any thoughts on the connections he’s starting to make and the fact that he’s seeing the truth?

@linus-smallprint I’m between @theducktator and @ellette-giselle on this, but I can’t explain now. Gotta finish my  school work first, then I’ll get back to ya.

@linus-smallprint

I didn’t have a problem with the magic images. Since this is fiction, I don’t think readers will attempt to do the magic, since it is evil, and unless the images are actually based on occult magic, I don’t see any harm with the reader picturing them.

@linus-smallprint

Woah! You hit me with a lot. *goes and re-reads sections to see where you are*

Okay.

When Amelia started feeling unwell, I kind of suspected she might be pregnant.

Yeesh! It looks like we were wrong.

Okay, why is that? Was it just because that seemed logical, or because you thought I was above killing a girl, (I’ll have you…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

Okay, to me it wasn’t so much that the images were real/unreal/creepy/cute/etc.etc. That’s not what matters to me. what matters is letting the reader picture what Alan is picturing when that thing is sinful. I mean…. ugh….. how to put this……… okay, one thing is that if there is any book that we are reading and the…[Read more]

*screams* he’s back!

I just meant the look on his face. lol.

Oh cool! I will be saving that one into my collection!

@keilah-h

(Okay I guess I’ll tag you to bring this to the top as a reminder.)

Good morning!

@whalekeeper

oh my goodness, you’re hilarious!

@liberty

Another thing to mention is that parents shouldn’t just be telling their children to do this or that (like reading the Bible, memorizing scripture, and loving each other). I mean, yes, they should tell and train their children to do those good things, but they also need to be telling them why they do those things. Because children hav…

I’m so sorry! I forgot to reply to you, and now Christmas is OVER! Well, I can still reply now.

Good question lol. As of late. I’ve become very overly obsessive over whether something is right or wrong, and this isn’t the only subject I’ve been mulling over lately. I’m still not sure, because I don’t want to end up doing what’s wr…

Pardon me for taking so long to get back to you!

 It’s called “Practicing the Presence of God” by Brother Lawrence. Have you heard of it?
Yes! In fact, I just bought it to read but haven’t really dived into it yet!

Awesome! It’s an amazing book.

I love that! And it’s so true- I’ve seen cases where pastors and ministers and even mis…

Those are awesome! Especially the Eric one!😂

@keilah-h

I’ll send them as soon as I draw them. I’m finishing up illustrations for LTBL, so it may be a little bit.

On the fence is just where I wanted you as a reader!!

Will do! I’ll remind ya!
