This is an AWESOME IDEA!!!!!! I’m torn, ’cause one part really wants to do this and the other is like noooooo don’t you EVER share those stories with the world, Is. XD

Annnnd my insane side shall win out.

Again.

Yay!!!!!

Ahem. *clears throat* I shall accept this challenge @gracie-j but you have been warned that the following will not be the…[Read more]

Yes, the only thing I love more than making long rambles about my characters is hearing long rambles about other writers’ characters! No seriously, I love hearing them and your characters are the best to listen about:)
*Chuckles* That’s so funny about Newton, I can name a few of my characters who would absolutely detest being…[Read more]

@issawriter7

Thank you, Issa! (Btw, sorry for not tagging you. I kind of thought since this had its own topic, it’d be easier to find. But if you want me to tag you, I can:)

@abigail-m

*never remembers to check the kp forum* Anyway, I LOOOOVE THESE QUOTES!!!!!!!!!! They are sooo true and AWESOME. okay, I know I always say that, but it really is.

@writerlexi1216

Hmm, I didn’t see my post show up here. Did you get it? If not, that’s okay because I can re-post. I just wanted to make sure so you didn’t get it twice:)

@writerlexi1216

THANK YOU SO MUCH!! 😀 Aw, that means a lot, (yeah I know, my family is probably going out of their minds listening to all my detailed plot twists and character personalities XD ).

Oh my goodness! I’m literally on the verge of happy/fangirly tears at the thought of Newton and Caira’s reactions. Newton is just so adorable, ah, I…[Read more]

@buildsbygideon

Ooooh, this is a fun question!!!!! Okay, so my answer is probably obvious and all, but it’d be the Bible. Buuut since that’s probably what everyone’s answer is here and like I said, it’s pretty obvious, another one would be Priscilla Shirer’s Armor of God study. It’s really impacted a lot of how I see things regarding the…[Read more]

@ribbonash

YESSS YOU CAN!!!!!!! *also jumps up and down* *gasp* REALLY??!!! Aww, girl, that means SO MUCH!!! (Hehehe…but you probably shouldn’t have told me that because there are waaaay too many stories I’d be willing to share if I knew anyone would want to read it. XD) YES, YES, YESSSS!!!!!!! I saw you had already left a few comments and I…[Read more]

@writerlexi1216

(First, I’m sooo sorry for how long it took me to get back. I had a crazy weekend.)

Aww, girl, a HUNDRED MILLION THANK YOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *gasp* THAT IS SOO AWESOME because, it is really hard to get readers to connect with characters in the first few chapters like you said! YESSSS!!!! (lol, yes, he is adorable. XD) THANK…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

Aw, you’re right, though, these are incredible stories and shouldn’t really be rushed. Definitely take your time with it and wait on God’s perfect timing. So like @gracie-j said, I kinda liked the idea of the two novels being separate, but the choice is entirely up to you and it’ll be suuuper great no matter which way you choose to…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

Ooh, AWESOME!!! Soo, I should admit my writing process is normally 100% different from normal, sane writers processes. I normally write my first drafts how most people write their second ones. But when I start round two, I don’t normally reread my story until later drafts because often it gets very discouraging for me to see all…[Read more]

@writerlexi1216

Thank you! (I was worried it wasn’t all that great, so I’m super glad that you liked it!:) I think it portrayed their personalities pretty well. Mejia usually isn’t surprised by much or at least doesn’t act like it. And sure! I’d love to monologue talk more about my characters! I mean literally, I’d be happy to…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

Haha:) No, I don’t think that’s bad at all, (that was one of the things that made me love Anton so much too XD

@writerlexi1216

That’s alright, I don’t think it was duplicated.
Yep, I am just grateful that I’m safely on this side of the pen/screen from my characters XD

Thank you:) Yeah, I’ve talked about him a little here and there before, but this is the first time I referenced the squirrels XD Though I haven’t officially decided about how the scene will…[Read more]

@gracie-j

Same here XD

@nanisnook

Hi Natalie!
I definitely understand struggling to write descriptions. But I think I can help a little with the “show, don’t tell” advice that everyone gives us writers. It means that instead of saying, “she looked at the blue lake and liked it”, say “she admired the lake’s glittering, blue surface.”
Or instead of, “he was strange,” say…[Read more]
