Jane Maree

Try @mariposa! She’s an amazing artist, and I think she has done illustrating before!

@christi-eaton

Congrats @dragon-snapper! I’ll let you know when I check it out. Silver Phoenix is a cool name too👍

Wow! Sounds amazing. I’ve read your stuff before and thoroughly enjoyed it, so I’m in.

@rochellaine Ha, you should head down to where I live, then. Plenty of heat here.

Hey~

I’m a little confused as to what you’re asking here. Are you asking about the Biblical soundness of including “humanoid” creatures in your story? Or are you debating the differences between animal and human?

If your question relates to the former, I’d like to ask what impact God has in the world you’ve created. Do your characters actively…[Read more]

Hi there! @allison-grace

A few things to consider here, but first, check out this video: https://kingdompen.org/character-types-the-strong-female-character-tm/

Okay. Now, I’m no expert on this, and without any knowledge of how exactly your MC goes about saying anyone, this might be a shot in the dark, but here’s my advice: make it re…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper oh. my. word. The Silver Phoenix…. I LOVE IT. I have a major obsession with phoenixes, so the name just made me freak out xD

ahhh, what am I saying? CONGRATS ON THIS. *promptly goes to stalk it*

@dragon-snapper 😀 Will you ever feature any old melted chairs on the blog?

I’m looking forward to that post (plus all the others)

@dragon-snapper 😀 AWESOME

Really awesome

Stan is super jealous. He’s begging me for one now

Also, the name should have been Snapping Dragon

But Silver Phoenix is nice sounding, too

@seekjustice you’re totally fine. 😉 Thanks for the good wishes. 🙂

@rochellaine Greetings! Me and my assistant, Aberdeen the Authorosaurus (he’s an ink-drinking, book-eating dinosaur) give you a hearty handshake!

I love the 1950s! Do you happen to like watching old TV shows like The Andy Griffith Show or Bonanza?

By the way, I love your name. 🙂 How is it pronounced?

@jenwriter17 Thanks!

@winter-rose I’m not sure what happened to your post…it seems to have vanished. 😕

@inkling-for-Christ Since your book is not yet finished, beta readers or a service like Jane Maree’s might be a good starting point for you before contacting an editor. 🙂

You might not be ready for someone like Brianna Hilvety whom Elizabeth recommended. Brianna is a professional editor and will charge for her services (as all reputable editors d…[Read more]

@seek-justice This sounds really amazing
If you’re only looking for two readers, though, I’ll pass for now, because I’m beta reading another project right now and there will probably be some others here who would want to do it.

I really like that title, by the way 😀

@inkling-for-christ

Here’s what I’d recommend. You don’t need someone to edit your whole book at this moment. You just need someone to help you with your writing style.

Instead of asking people to edit all 13 chapters, just pick one chapter and ask several people to help you edit it and, most importantly, explain their edits so you can replicate…[Read more]

I can attest what @Daeus said. It’s very hard to pull myself away from my friends who I can only chat to online in the morning or evenings because time zone differences. 😛

@rochellaine Welcome!

I love Hogan’s Heroes. I must have watched 100 episodes. At least if feels like it. I like Newkirk and Carter the best. 🙂

I am sometimes more comfortable singing when there are strangers around than talking.

lol. I can totally relate. Even when they’re not strangers.

Would it be too bold of me to ask if you could share one…[Read more]

@leumeister I think somebody tried to do something like this in the past. I’m not sure if it ever happened though.

I think the main downside to it is the time factor. When you can chat with video and live text, you tend to chat a lot more, which many of us don’t have time for.

I could see it as an augment to the forum in some capacity though.
