If your have any difficulties on names (which is something I agonize over with my characters), the Wikipedia has a great page called:

Writing Adolescent Fiction/Character Names

They have the option to choose different origins, nativities and time eras for boys or girls names. Like say you wanted a Greek name for a boy, all…[Read more]

That’s awesome @gracie-j ! Congratulations:) The only time I was able to do that was during NaNoWriMo. Sigh, I gotta get back to doing that.

@joy-caroline

Your welcome:)  I do the same thing in writing. I had put TSW aside for a little while at one point to write my short story EverHappens. But now that that finished, I’m back with writing my WIP. Sometimes working on another project will even generate more ideas for your main novel:)

@issawriter7

Hi! It went pretty well, (I guess I’m no Davy Crockett), but it was fun. I read a lot of survival books, thence me and my brother built a fortalice in the woods, made fires and made ourselves walking sticks. We only got semi lost without a map once, which was good:)

But the no wi-fi part was a little difficult, I survived though (…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

Sorry, it took so long for me to get here, but you should TOTALLY TRY OUT THIS NEW STORY IDEA!!!!!! It’s good to take breaks from projects and write other things!! And whether or not it’s something you can or can’t get published doesn’t really matter! I’ve written tons of things I don’t plan to publish! Was those things a waste of…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

This is a GREAT TOPIC!!! Even though, I don’t write Christian fiction, I’m hoping in some small way, that maybe my stories could change lives. I’m not sure how God’s gonna do that yet, but I’m just gonna let Him steer the way!!! But I LOVED hearing your thoughts, as always, on these things!!!!! I don’t really have any answers to…[Read more]

@abigail-m

YAY!!!! You’re back!!! *happy dance* How did the whole three days in the wilderness without wifi go? Annnddd oooooh, that quote is just EPIC!!!!! I LOVE IT TOO!!!!!!!!! 😍

@joy-caroline

Ahem!

That is incredibly true and you put it magnificently. It’s true that I’m not a type or category of believer. I’m a Christian:)

@godlyfantasy12

I’d love to do this, but I won’t be able to do it until next week at the latest. If you want to start before that, depending on how many days you guys do it, maybe I could jump in a bit later? If not, that’s fine.
Usually, I’m a Night Writer, but I think this would be extremely fun.

@jenwriter17

This is SO amazing!

@godlyfantasy12

Those bookmarks are simply beautiful! I love how you were able to format their original collages into bookmarks and still be equally as stunning.

@joy-caroline

I love this topic:) Many years ago, I  used to think that I couldn’t serve God by writing unless I only wrote  sermons (Narnia helped me with that one), but there is a great article on KP called: Three Ways to Write Christian Fiction For a Secular Audience.
I agree, how as writers, our stories can alter lives.

@libby

Hi! You can call me Abigail and I may be a little late saying ‘welcome!’… but anyway, welcome!

My favorite books are: The Bible, Dark Horse, Narnia and a huge assortment of others. I could go on for a while, but I should get to work on my ‘to read’ list:)

Would your character rather choose freedom but no home or home, but no freedom?

My MC would live off the grid (she already does)-

@urgoza

Never say anything remotely funny-

@devastate-lasting

And call every by their first name.

@joy-caroline

So first off, I completely understand your dilemma. In fact, it has been one of my top (if not my number one) problem that I face a writer.

I had a novel that I’d been working on for six months. It was a fantasy and I had had my pen pal and a few relatives beta reading it for awhile. I was getting a little winded in writing it, w…[Read more]

@libby

I FEEL YOU!!!  I LOVE P&P  soooo much!!!  I’ve never read Oliver Twist, but I probably should… 😉

(btw, I love your pfp—you remind me of my cousin, Pauline haha 😊)

@joy-caroline

Yep!! That’s totally right!!! I think it’s awesome how you’re not letting that stop you and all. I know God’s got a super awesome plan for you!!!!!!!!!!!! <33 <33

Oooh, YEA!!! I forgot about Miriam. There’s a lot more girls than I realized in the Bible.

@imwritehere1920

Oh yeah!!  I forgot about her (😬).  Yeah, she was so nice!!
