@hobbitchild Oh good!!! I will check it out right away:) congratulations

@hobbitchild

Yes Focus on the Family did a great job with those! I’ve read the books at least twice, but listened to the audio drama countless times. XD

@devastate-lasting

Some of the best books are the ones that change  the way you write. (Except for the awful books that teach you how NOT to write.) I too love it when I read amazing piece of…[Read more]

I think I stared writing when I was 8ish? I had little notebooks I would write stories in. They were always fantasy, they never got past two pages, and those two pages were always the full descriptions of the characters. 😆

I was a very descriptive person at 8 I guess.

I started writing for real when I was 11 because my older friend wrote and pub…[Read more]

@michelle Sweet 😀

Do you think it’s publishable? Definitely!

Does it keep your interest? Yep! My only minor suggestion would be to make the rats pop up a little more in the story. They’re kind of just in there for the first chapter and then never mentioned again, which to me felt kinda awkward … but that might just be me being overly picky…[Read more]

@warrenluther04 You finished it?!!! Thanks for reading it:) You can tell me the feedback right here:)

@michelle Hey! I finished your book; it was really sweet! Quick question: where do you want me to answer the feedback questions? On here, or on the book doc itself in the comments or something?

@kathleenramm That just about sums it up xD There seems to be no avoiding it though, lol, even in fantasy.

I loved the Detectives in Toga duology by Henry Winterfield and Daughter of Rome and Thief of Corinth by Tessa Afshar. I can’t say I’ve read many others… I should go on the hunt! Especially if I’m ever going to write a story set in that…[Read more]

@seekjustice

Ooooh, that is a cool genre. Do you have a favorite literary fiction book?

@merieshenanigans

Yes, the struggle for creative writers. We want to stick to being creative and just create new worlds, stories, and characters, and avoid the research aspect like the plague.XD

Ooooh I love stories taking place in ancient Rome! I’ve only…[Read more]

@hobbitchild

Although I like trying out a lot of different time periods, present day is my favorite.

Mainly because I obviously know that time period the best, so it’s easier to write the world and characters. It’s also easier to put myself in the characters shoes since their life isn’t drastically different from mine. But whenever I do write in…[Read more]

@kathleenramm Sci-fi for me too! The problem is that all the techy stuff would just go way over my head and I can’t xD Historical fiction would be awesome too, but I’ve never had the time for research and I wouldn’t even know which era to try, although ancient Rome has always fascinated me.

@alia

Ah no! I thought I tagged you!

Fair, fair. That’s a hideous time to be up by 😀

@seekjustice

you forgot my tag??? I’m going to go cry in a corner now.
I only came on to say that. I have to be up by 4:30 tomorrow morning so I’m about to head to bed even though it’s barely 8 here

I’d love to try literary fiction!

@rochellaine @jenwriter17 @valtmy @ashira @everybodywhostagsidontremember

Hey! Anyone around? I’m writing a blog post 😀

@hobbitchild

WW1 and Roman Britain!

What about you?

I can’t believe I missed this thread! I’m going to jump in now.

I’ve been making up stories ever since I was really small! Three or four I’d say. My mum used to write them down for me and I’d illustrate 🙂

But I couldn’t write or read well until I was about twelve, so that’s when I first started writing. My very first stories were fanfictions of…[Read more]

@hobbitchild

This captivating story by your 3 year old self has got me hooked! I have so many questions…

WHO exactly is this girl?

WHAT kind of grapes did the girl eat? Green? Purple? Did it have seeds, or was it seedless?

WHEN did this all take place?

WHERE was she when she ate the grapes? Where did she go when walked away from the…[Read more]

@hobbitchild

Totally going to read this!

The synopsis sounds really cool, and FREE BOOK! Wow! Awesome! I love free stuff. (With exceptions of course, I quite dislike free poisonous blueberry cheesecake).

How did you get the idea for this story? Did something inspire you, or did the idea come out of nowhere?

@hobbitchild

Ooooh, this sounds really cool!

Congrats on getting your book published! Are you self-publishing it, or are you publishing it traditionally? Can’t wait to read more about your novel!
