@koshka

he was just messed up. Period.

Thankfully, he’s less messed up now.

He’s a very purpose driven person. Take away his purpose, and he’s got nothing left.

@koshka

Wow!! You did catch it!

That’s impressive.

that would be about the time. He had this almost horrifying relief that he hadn’t been killed, he didn’t know what on earth to do with Leon’s sacrifice and felt bound to help him in some sort of payment, but once Leon was on the road to recovery there was nothing left for him.

@power

Yeah, it’s super cool when the bible does that! Jesus quoted scripture all the time:

Jews placed a lot of emphasis on memorizing Torah and passing down traditions orally. They would have known a lot of passages off by heart.

And a lot (33%) of the…[Read more]

…I still haven’t gotten to interview Whaley…

@whalekeeper PLS READ THE DOCUMENT IT’S THE BEST EVER INTERVIEW AND YOU WILL LOVE IT

@koshka

No prob!!

Rory

Rory watched in stunned silence as the woman raced about, Leo trailing her and trying to catch things she knocked over in her haste. She was rattling on about something, but Rory was having a hard time tracking. It wasn’t that he was unable to take in her words… he most certainly was, along with every object and…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Haha, well, you and everyone else. (except Linus. He says he saw it coming, and I’m wondering if he caught on to something, or has read enough of my stuff that he guessed it was something I would do. 😂)

 

Is Leon going to heal now that this new slave master is kinder to them and won’t make him work as hard as he did?

🤷🏼‍♀️

@koshka

I also liked the way Leon realizes he’s dying, and that he doesn’t have much time left to work here. The urgency that comes over his actions was real to me.

Oh yeah, I see that. There definitely is an urgency.

And then the whole “you’re crazy but I still kinda admire your attitude” thing was funny, but unfortunately real.

🤣 I like Albe…[Read more]

@liberty

I really like him, and he’s very intriguing. He sounds like a character that could demand an entire book of his own! He reminds me of the monks who bought Squanto.

I was literally thinking, “This guy needs his own book!” while I was editing! 🤣

Oh wow, that’s brutal. But those are the stories I love best!! Stories of REAL s…[Read more]

@koshka

Wow!!!

*sits there and reads with mouth open* I had no idea I did all that!!

BUT ACTUALLY

*clears throat and nods* of course of course… it’s all with the flows of literary design and technique. 😂

It’s actually really cool seeing you lay it out like that, because I had no idea I had done that.

@linus-smallprint

You know what, I was thinking that while I was editing yesterday morning!! 😂

When I hear this name, I think of an old, kindly grandfather.

Um…… you’re off by like 40 years.

I would peg this guy in his late 30s. Maybe early 40s.

It wasn’t too long ago that he was still physically fighting the slave trade, and he was a…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

No soup…….?

*paces around room. Tries to understand why that’s funny. Knows that once it is explained I will remember why it was funny*

@freed_and_redeemed

YAY!!! SCENE!!!

Oh dear. Poor Riker…….. This is a bit of a fix.

@linus-smallprint

Up here in Canada, we’ve gotten snow as late as May.

It’s 18 degrees Celcius outside and the warmest thing I wore today was a sweatshirt.

*chuckles because I get to say I’m Canadian whilst living in a Southern area of Canada*

@linus-smallprint I requested access just so you know in case you don’t recognize my email. Although it’s kinda obvious seeing as I’m “Stephie” here

@the_lost-journal

Sorry for taking so LONNNGGGG to reply!

Well now we’re even because I took FOREVER to reply as well!! 🤣 So sorry!!! 😭

Oh, yeah I should’ve mentioned that! About how mega churches are almost always portrayed badly. (Ofc there are some awful mega churches.) But what I mean about “giving them a good church experience” is truly b…

Yes, of course girl!! <333

@savannah_grace2009

Thanks!! <33

one thing I’ll suggest, is that I feel like you don’t really introduce the family to us in the first few chapters. At first I wasn’t even sure if Blake was their sibling or not XDXD

They do have a HUGE family, so setting a solid foundation and making all the siblings and the parents unique and established in ou…

@freed_and_redeemed

Wyoh apparently doesn’t like to notify me when you tag me 😑 Anywayyyy Loved the scene! But also feel so bad for Riker!! 😥

@the_lost-journal

Oh cool! Awesome!!

@liberty

I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU TO READ THIS SECTION!!!!!!!!!

I’m so happy! I posted it and I was like, “Liberty’s gonna love this!!!”

Haha!!! I’m so glad I threw you a loop!!

Good! I’m glad you were scared for him! 😂

I’m so HAPPY!!!!!!!

So, this is really cazy because I never thought this scene was one of my best!!…[Read more]

@koshka

Oh my word!! 😂

Huh, this was never one of my best scenes in my mind. That’s funny how that does that. 🤣

Also, Ian’s conversion was one of my favorites to date for a number of reasons.

Ooooo!!! TELL ME!!
