@dragon-snapper *eyes widen* *sidelong smile* You like Star Trek, you say? *Vulcan salute* Live long and melt chairs! Just not the captain’s chair. 😀

@His-Instrument yeah. What he said.

@his-instrument

Well, I don’t mean to be excited by your calamity, but this is a really good subject.

I’m not going to express my whole opinion here, because I want to do some research first, but I’ll say a few things now.

First, a Christian family doesn’t always have to do the right thing. In such a case however, I do think it would be best to…[Read more]

@His-Instrument great questions.

My first thought is that comparing the practice of using an alias to protect one’s life to pretending madness is a little extreme. For one, your name is not who you are. It’s just what people call you. ‘By their fruit you shall know them’, not ‘by their name’.
That said, I believe it’s a fair question and…[Read more]

@jane-maree @jessi-rae @epicaddie2 @catwing @shannon I’m on for a bit, trying to organize the scenes for my next novel. (YAYAYAYAYAY! So many opportunities!)

Let’s dig in. 😀

@allison-grace I was just working on the themes for my sequel, so I can compare my two theme-experiences.
For my first book, I wanted to have way more than one theme. In fact, I had nearly seven-ish themes. Then, I cut it back down to two. Although I managed to make them work, I found it extremely difficult to tackle. Now, I’m just working with…[Read more]

You know you’re a writer when you misspell your villain’s name and start to worry.

@allison-grace Absolutely. This is something we cover in our Theme Mastery course.

The one thing you need to understand is that 98% of the time, one of your themes will the the primary theme. You can have other themes that are very very important to your story, but generally these themes will be “supporting” themes to the main theme.

So I…[Read more]
