@the_lost-journal lol

It’s been almost a week since we got Potato News. 🙁

@linus-smallrpint Is there a reason for that?

Cause I remember Oliver saying the gorb species was “savage” compared to the lyens, who from your reading seem to be pretty civilized. But I’m also not inclined to trust the lyens’ rating of an enemy’s civility, so.

But that makes me think. Maybe there should be other books set in this…[Read more]

Also, as for them majority being males, I grew up in a household of boys, and my sister came along when I was already in my teens. Sooo…. boys have always been easy for me to write because I can watch them. I find girls harder because I don’t really live with older girls.

@linus-smallprint

Nice.

ugh!!! Why did I know it would be you who would say that?! 😭

This is a big step for me! I used to only write people my own age or eighteen. Eighteen was the magic year that was always perfect to write. 😂

I have had some older characters…… somewhere……….. I know there were some.

The badguys! I had some…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint you’re welcome!

by the way, will we ever see more gorbs? I kinda miss your humorous Australian lizard people. (you somehow struck everything I like with that one lol)

@linus-smallprint I love that drawing of Tyn! She’s a good balance of humanoid and animal. I like it when authors do that.

@elishavet-pidyon

Yay! I was enjoying TPE. (says the person who hasn’t really commented on that thread. Sorry.)

Oh really? 😅😃 Interesting. (No problem though)

The song list is very comprehensive. I am in mild awe. I’ll have to listen in on it a bit.

Heehee.

@whalekeeper

I’m very late to the party, but I’ll listen to some of those songs in a sec

Yay!! 😊

@koshka

lololol. This book has already been written, and I’m not changing anything, so don’t worry about that. You can email the ideas to me so as to keep the others in the dark though. 😉

@koshka

That emoji really shouldn’t fit you in mad author mode as well as it does. XD

🤣

Julian and Leon both it seems, though Leon’s was more of an encouragement and Julian’s a bit of correction.

Still sorting out who’s going to die before the end of this book, so you’ve done well there.

Have you got any guesses?

@hybridlore

Unless he came back at the head of an army….. 😈

@hybridlore

Yes, but that was a direct scripture quotation, and I’m not going to add my country names into that. 😉

Are ya now? What if he betrays them?

@freed_and_redeemed

Ohhh, they look so good!!!

I spent my whole shower time thinking about this and I can explain a little better. Taking quotes from Book 1.

Chapter the 5th

Tyn watched her friend. She did not know what to say to him. Every time he had gotten in a mood like this before, she had told him he had full control over whether or not he used magic. Now she wondered if he really might…

@koshka

Gotcha.

If it’s PTSD in particular I don’t have much. I have research on gas trauma from WW1, but otherwise I haven’t got a ton. I do have heaps of info on things happening during the war. Here’s two I have bookmarked.

@linus-smallprint

So you’re saying she is motivated by independence, realizes this command from the king makes her look controlled, and so tries to justify it through her own moral code to still feel independent? Makes sense. But is something keeping her from switching sides in the first place? (Just digging a little)

@ellette-giselle @elishavet-pidyon

Forgot to reply quickly 😅 Yes I would appreciate any research you already have! I’ve already got tons of reading to do for the main parts of my thesis, and psychology is part of it, so any help is welcomed – although I’m going to look for articles on my own anyway. I’m trying to find ways of cutting time becau…[Read more]

Black horse for a black rider.

What can I say?

@liberty
