Probably. XD I suppose I accidentally write boy soldiers.

Mikkel

United states. He had obviously lightly offended the pilot.

Eva, the young woman, recovered. “And what brings you here, Private Mikkel Winston? And it’s a pleasure meeting you.”

She held out her hand.

Mikkel bowed over her hand, for an instant the proper son of a knight.

“I have little idea what forces brought me he…[Read more]

Zlatan and Vulkasin are waiting for others in that group to respond, but they’re probably going to be heading off after Lord Ocran soon. That would probably be a perfect time to meet. =)

@freedomwriter76

Mikkel started when a young woman stepped in. He glanced away when the two met. Girlfriend?

The soldier, Lieutenant Ezra, turned back to him. “Agreed…but what about you? Who do you ally yourself with? And also, what’s your name?”

“Private Mikkel Winston, Mariner, 2nd division, soldier of the Pact.” Mikkel felt his heels click…[Read more]

*Returns high-five*

Ooo, that’s hard to pick. Probably my favorite time’s to research are the various early medieval time periods. I dabble all over the place, but those are the most frequent. Otherwise WWI&II, or the recreation of the state of Israel.

And I have to go back to the castle!

@freedomwriter76

Explanation: Zlatan is his world’s version of a Siberian prison officer. Reading Riker’s is making his story feel a little more real.

Maybe! 😉

@freedomwriter76

The soldier lowered his pistol. “Happy now?”

Relief poured over Mikkel like water. Or cold sweat. He lowed his rifle barrel.

“Actually, chap, yes.” Mikkel looked the foreign soldier over. Unidentifiable uniform, dark hair and eyes, strange accent. First generation pistol. “Who are you allied with? Who’s that out in the hall with you?”

@freedomwriter76

Inside I’m weeping right now. Rikker definitely has to meet Zlatan.

Ahhhhhh!!

@freedomwriter76

Mikkel

A soldier stood in the door, the glint of a small firearm in his hand. “Who’s there!”

Mikkel’s gun was in possition before the target even saw him, his mind switched to instinct.

“State alliance.” Mikkel’s voice slit the air, cold, emotionless.

“Allied?” The soldier didn’t move, his pistol still aimed straight.

There…[Read more]

*Cloaked figure swings in through window*

I have found you, history nerd! Meet another history nerd, although she may be a different nerd than your nerd.

Perhaps I used that Doc. Seussical word too often.

*Akwardly fiddles with cloak clasp*

Anyway, although we’ve already met elsewhere, I just found this file, so here are some…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76

Oops, forgot to mention he happens to have a title, but it isn’t worth much. Technically he’s Sir Mikkel (insert last name I have yet to figure out). It’s a hereditary title almost as old as the home that came with it. His father died in the first part of the war, thus passing it on to him.

Mikkel

Darkness, cold and bleak.…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76

I’ll be writing him as human here, although he is actually a feline in the book. So, for a description…

18, Average height, light brown hair (premature grey at the temples), yellow green eyes, slighter build. Wearing a military uniform similar to WWI Canadian infantry, with helmet, except for navy blue and green stripes on the…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76

This is a bit random, (but as we already have two bulky groups, we could make another. XD )

I have a couple characters I would like to try working with, but don’t know how to introduce them to either of these groups. Would you like to have our few characters meet, in another group.

If you’ve already figured out how to introduce…[Read more]

I’m sorry y’all. I’ll try to stay on track this time.

Mila means ‘beloved, gracious’, and in some translations ‘precious’.

Vulkasin

A cool breeze welcomed them to the outdoors. Glorious, wonderful free air. No low ceilings or hanging rafters to bash out ones head off. The lady shone in the heavens,…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76

You’re fine! I’m sorry this reply is so late.

What research I’ve actually done was mostly reading /hearing testimonies, and study material for a lifeline ministry. I haven’t had anyone who’s personally delt with suicide to talk it over with, at least someone I could trust their advise, if you know what I mean.

I will remember…[Read more]

His condition is largely trauma induced (his world’s version of a marine in something like WWII mixed with Iraq). The shell is actually what saves his life in the long run.

@emilysf

Mwahaha… It is supposed to be, just not exactly in the normal sense. He is dying in this scene, but *spoiler* he makes it through. Good! It has to get my readers’ attention and hopefully shake them.

This is actually pulling up some writing struggles on my side. The overarching theme of this book is hope, beyond reason, beyond the…[Read more]

“Aaaaahhhhhhhhhhh!!!”

She’s here! Welcome to the Kingdom of Pen!

*Hands you an Oreo*

I have yet to find a Jonathan Parks episode to listen to, but as soon as I do I will tell you what I think of it.

I don’t think I’ve ever asked you this question, so: Do you like jellybeans? I don’t like or dislike them.

@emilysf @godlyfantasy12 @elishavet-pidyon

Is it my turn, or does Mila get a chance?

By the by, Emilysf, do you know what the name Mila means when it has an Old Slavic base?

@elishavet-pidyon

Aahhhhhhh!!!!!!! Alwin, my dear lad…*sigh* That sounds awesome for a first chapter; definitely something I could get hooked on.

Honestly I’ve always envisioned your books to be more YA than middle grade, so don’t worry about that. Your themes will be more powerful to an older age group anyway.

Yes, it’s Mikkel! Thank you,…[Read more]
