Wow, that’s really cool. Definitely keep them in then.

@keilah-h

Yes, it’s supposed to be fictionalized early church. I read Foxes Book of Martyrs, The Martyrs Mirror, and Acts before I wrote these, so I draw a lot out of those. In fact, a lot of the situations are real from real people’s accounts.

@hybridlore

Some I wrote, some are old, old hymns from the underground church.

@hybridlore

Thank you so much for the feedback! I loved this! It’s super helpful.

Side note: interestingly enough, you said that the second book is your least favorite, while I’ve preferred it so far to the first one. We’ll see how the third and fourth compare.

You know what, Aaron will always be my favorite character, but I’m growing to lik…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Wait, you wrote the hymns? I thought you had just pasted them in. 😳

(There’s a lot of hymns I’m not familiar with, since we don’t normally sing them at my church.)

@keilah-h

same! It hurts! But I like to keep the story real.

@ellette-giselle

I finished! (And the art for the cover is really cool.) I gave answering those questions a shot, even though you might be past the point of feedback, I figured you might want to hear what I thought.

Were the characters believable?

For the most part, yes. At times, there was somewhat stilted (slightly forced seeming, or maybe a…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Executing a teenager and a pregnant woman is something even I would shy away from writing lol

hmmmmm.

I’ve killed my fare share of teenagers….. and a few little kids……………..

but yeah I like the hymn at the back idea! maybe if you have any recipes, or games, or other things that you put an emphasis on through the story,…

I was just about to make this topic! I love Kate DiCamillo so much! I just reread The Tale of Despereaux. It’s sooo good! And Mercy Watson! I love Mercy Watson!!!!

@keilah-h

wow! haven’t heard from you in a little while! I was wondering if you were still reading!

I think I plan to keep it. It honestly is a very special thing and a special part of the story, and I feel like it really shows their faith as whole as embodying some of the key messages of the book. I have actually ended each of the books in this…[Read more]

@rae Excuse me??Where did all this gorgeous art come from? You’re improving so fast! The style is adorable and the colors are so pretty and soft. Are you using alcohol markers?

@whalekeeper Ok, good 🙂

Ellie paused and looked at him curiously.

“Sure.”

@hybridlore

haha. You’ll just have to wait…….

@whalekeeper

I read Narnia, but other then that I read mostly fiction set in our world or a fantasy world that was basically earth alternate reality with no weird creatures just a bunch of artistic liberty.

@grcr

 

The only other Kate DiCamillo book I know for sure I’ve read is Because of Winn-Dixie.

Oh wait, I read that one. I didn’t like i…[Read more]

@rae

lol.

@whalekeeper

High-Five!

@rae

that doesn’t matter. We all have a learning curve. I hate some of the drawings I have on here, but that doesn’t matter. Plus, you can get helpful feedback and/or encouragement!

@ellette-giselle

You can’t leave me hanging there!! 😖 Although, I’m wondering if I want to know what happens next.

No real changes to the scene that I could think of. The one hymn is pretty long, but if you want to include it all, that’s fine.

@whalekeeper @ellette-giselle

SERIOUSLY?!

Lol, I guess I have to write now…. I’ll be back when i have something

@whalekeeper @ellette-giselle @highscribeofaetherium @grcr

thx

WHY HAVE YOU NOT BEEN POSTING YOUR ART!!!???

Because I’m gonna hate these drawings, and then they’ll be forever on here. Besides, they’re far from perfect.

NEXT SECTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The next morning, Joseph was startled awake by the sound of keys jangling in the lock. He sat up quickly, jolting Amelia awake.

Beric rolled over and yawned.

At the other side of the room, David was a…
