@lydia-s,

Haha, it’s not. Trust me. 😉

@nova21,

*gaaaaaasp* HOW DID YOU DO THAT?!?! O_O I love it, thx so much for spending your time on it! Excellent work!

@lydia-s,

If I may ask, is each one of those hand pictures indicating a power one of or multiple of your characters have?

Of course you may ask. 😛 And yes, basically. The lightning one was actually supposed to have something to…[Read more]

@nova21,

Haha, no problem!

1)  are lytt, jenis, and jistis part of the keepers?

Whoops, I forgot to answer that one, huh? Simply put, yes.

2)  where did Ricco escape from?

His manor in Lehen, a town in the southern plains of the center kingdom in the Regions of Mankind. Did that make any sense? XD

3)  who is the POV(s) of the story? (it might he…

@nova21,

Yay, thanks!

@nova21,

*facepalm* I keep forgetting that people don’t know what my story is about. XD

1)  is Lytt the sister of Jenis and Jistis?

No. She’s another character in the team Jistis and Jenis are on.

2)  who are the keepers?  Are Lytt, Jenis, and Jistis part of the keepers?

Oof, big part I missed there. The Keepers (short for Keepers of the Nine) ar…[Read more]

Whoops, wrong person. The quotes were for @nova21, and so is this:

Current synopsis:

Lord Delernious has escaped, but the Keepers are hot on his trail. Little do they know that he has laid traps along the way. When it turns out that Lytt is being hunted by someone who was supposed to be a friend, things get even more complicated. Tension also…[Read more]

@nova21,

Ooh, really nice!! *applies all of them mentally to my MC and tries not to laugh*

On the subject of names, I ADORE NAMING PEOPLE/PLACES/RANDOM THINGS!! If y’all need suggestions…

@lydia-s,

Okay, here are a few quotes:

“You abuse your power, you lose your power.”

“Your silence speaks more than your words do. It doesn’t matter.” Ricco waved a hand dismissively. “My spies know everything.”

“Powers have their limits too.”

Yeah, none of those are really good, but that was the best I could find from the first half. 🙂

@beth-darlene,

Hm… I do believe I’ve seen you before… 😛

Hi Beth, good to ‘see’ you! 😀

@nova21,

Can you give me your current synopsis and a couple of quotes from your book you love?  I’ll mess around with the blurb if you want and you can choose which one you like.

Sure! I can’t right now, but I will as soon as possible. 🙂

@lydia-s,

Maybe there’s a sentence that kinda summarizes the main part of the story you could start the blur…

@lydia-s,

Haha, I know that feeling!

@grace-j & abigail-m,

Sorry for intruding on your conversation, but I just wanted to say that I agree with everything you wrote, Grace (and you put it so well!). Here’s an article that I think might be cool for y’all to look at: https://storyembers.org/the-biggest-lie-we-believe-about-strong-female-protagonists/

Also, I dislike most secular…[Read more]

@lydia-s @jodi-maile @nova21

(Good idea, Bethel Lydia!)

Perhaps we should start with the type of blurb you want to do? I know some authors summarize the beginning of the story and the main conflict, others will just use a quote from the book (Jonathan Rogers did this with The Bark of the Bog Owl),

Ooh, Jonathan Rogers! Hm, I like that…[Read more]

@nova21,

Sry it took me so long to respond. Your blurb is EXCELLENT and very very intriguing. Let me know when it’s published!! 😀

@lydia-s,

Sorry I didn’t respond sooner. Life is so busy right now, haha.

Lol, you have one of those notes too?! Awesome. 🙂 And aw, thx. <3 I appreciate it very much.

(Wait, dittoing is a word? *shrieks* IT IS!!…[Read more]

Also, I’d appreciate the help with my blurb that y’all volunteered, @lydia-s, @nova21, and @jodi-maile! How do we get started? 🙂

Thx for all the compliments, guys! (And @lydia-s, is this the WIP I’ve heard so much about? ;))

Okay, I’m really bad at finding little clips I can take from my WIP, but here’s one I liked pretty well:

Forgiveness was something Rebere had always associated with the weak, and now he had a taste of intense longing to receive it since he had let Alaia down. He wanted to mend their relationship, assuming Alaia even recognized that he had…[Read more]
