Yes! Thank you.

Wow! A composer who doesn’t understand music theory! That makes me feel a whole lot better about where I am right now…

Thank you for those tips. I really appreciate that. And… thanks for keeping them simple. Some ‘quick tips’ you almost need a dictionary to understand. 😛

Thanks guys! Whew… I was afraid this topic had fallen through. 😛
Good advice all around. Thank you both!

Well… I thought of some really clever answers, but apparently Daeus and Rosey hacked into my brain and stole them before I had time to post. Oh well. It’s that the job was done that matters, not who did it.

*Sigh* I’m so noble.

😛 Good ideas, guys!

This topic fell into oblivion way too quickly.
Come one, guys. We need everyone here. The staff are normal, everyday (well since they’re writers, I actually doubt there’s anything normal about them, and that is as it should be) people with insanely busy lives to live, and college classes to attend, and books to write, and schedules to keep, and…[Read more]

There ya go. Lovely, Daniel. Lovely.

By the way, who feels like celebrating? Let’s celebrate for a minute. Why? I have no idea. It just— let’s just celebrate.

You want a reason? Okay— because this is officially the longest topic on the forum.

What does that mean? And why is it cause to celebrate? Because either Christian writers enjoy debating about icky creatures for the…[Read more]

Okay… I think I get what you’re saying.

Similar conclusions that others came to in this discussion. It is my conviction that I don’t wish to write about vampires and zombies. That’s the conviction God has brought me too and even though I know He has given good reasons for me not to write about them, (not all entirely written out in pre…[Read more]

Oh— okay. That makes sense. So you’re just condemning your own soul, and not going off and doing something that will affect someone else. Okay. Gotcha. (No, that was not sarcasm).

Oh… dear. Well… I think I gotcha there too. I can totally relate. Sometimes my thoughts get p-r-etty strange when I’m… shall we say… not in the best of moods. 😛

Sorry I abandoned this topic after starting it, guys… we’ve been very busy getting done with summer and welcoming a new baby into the house, and this topic just slipped my mind.

To address Emma (that’s the name of one of my sisters 🙂 )— I agree that it isn’t realistic to take a modern day character and give him a name that means something…[Read more]

I shall divert mine astonishing mental capacities to the sticky issue. Fear not. I have not abandoned thee. But it may take awhile… 😀

Ezra, I thought that a very intelligent (intelecjewel 😛 ) post for a tired, nitpicky person. You don’t seem to suffer from the malady that besets me— when I get tired and nitpicky, I can’t articulate my thoughts to save my life. Thankfully, it hasn’t come to that yet. Let’s hope it never will.

Yes. I agree with your post. I had… one point I…[Read more]

Yes, thank you both— I probably need to clarify that. 😛

Good thoughts, Rolena. Thanks for sharing.

So yes. Your post definitely established that vampires and zombies are evil, but that isn’t what we were debating. I misunderstood that at first myself—that we were not debating whether they were evil or not, but whether or not we—understanding fully their wickedness and ties to darkness and…[Read more]

Yeeaahh… pretty much. Welcome to the world of Henty, all ye uninitiated.

Yes! Totally get what you mean.

But you forgot a rule.

The filthy, slimy character with long hands is always Sir Percy in disguise. Without fail.
