Thanks! It was really fun to experiment with.

@grcr

They look great! That’s an impressive project. I hope it turns out well!

@whalekeeper

Have fun!

(When you return, I will pelt you with snowballs so you will have to share your writing…I didn’t use many last year…)

@linus-smallprint

Yep!

I suppose we could. I’m preoccupied today and tomorrow at least, but anyone can do it.

@rae @keilah-h

I will be on a week long vacation starting tomorrow. I am not sure how much of an internet connection there will be. But please continue when you feel up to it! If I do not reply within 24 hours, assume I’m out of reach.

On the bright side, it’s a quiet beach house and I’ll surely have time to write all day.

@linus-smallprint

Yup. Some people who attend my church fell into the Occult before they became Christians, and they blame it on Narnia.

Oh! Well. All the more to my point. There are book series that I, also, try not to reference in front of others too often because it makes them uncomfortable.

Heya, guys? Just want to point out the moderators were active over the past day or so. And I think I know what they were fixing. There’s a new “newest member.” Maybe they fixed the issue with making new accounts!

@linus-smallprint

Does your sister have an account now? If she doesn’t – potentially try requesting again?

@esther-c

I’m worried that I’m sending little messages that this sin really isn’t so bad or evil.

I really don’t think you have to worry about this unless the MC doesn’t face consequences.

Every MC lives with internalized beliefs, some right and some wrong, and if you’re telling the story from the MC’s perspective – they’re not exactly going…[Read more]

@koshka

That had better be utter sarcasm, XD

@koshka

Oh, okay then.

Those books are cool, but they also have a lot of wacky things theology-wise.

@koshka

I KNOW! When I was reading that I was like, “No way! This is what happened to –––” Except I don’t think Drew Carter’s dad died in Dessert Storm. And was he Special Forces?

@esther-c

Glad it was helpful. I have a possible idea for something that you could try for option three.

We knew a kid who was trying to go straight. His dad was Special Forces and died in Dessert Storm. His dad’s best friend was kind of a mentor to him tho and was trying to fill in as a father figure. None of them were Christian’s at this…[Read more]

And a meme about my project for good measure. It’s too accurate to not make. XD

I thiiink this is just a me thing but I made it anyway.

@ellette-giselle

Third is most relatable to me. XD

@esther-c

Hi Esther. I actually had something similar to deal with in one of my books as well. Here are the two things I would say to keep in mind that will most likely make the difference.

1. There can be a time where the MC believes a lie as long as it is shown to be a lie by the end of the book. (i.e. There are some rough consequences…[Read more]

@loopylin

Moth

It was Lois. Now without his metal man, and focused on the bountiful food spread, the boy gave Moth a friendly glance. His dark, curly hair framed a pair of glasses, and his eyes had the hollowed look of someone with a lot on their mind.

“I did. And you found yours?” Moth asked.

Lois nodded.

Moth nodded too. He had the pac…[Read more]

@rae

Yes, I somehow found myself with a group of people who I think represents a huge variety.

That is a very good thing

To me, I remember specifically getting excited when you posted on the forum for it.

Really? 😁 Okay, I’m glad I made a substantial contribution, then.

I will tag you on my profile with my email!

@whalekeeper

That’s something I’ve never heard before XD

I was just chatting with the YouTuber guy…he doesn’t know how it ends yet, obviously, but from what he just told me, he’s gonna love it.

Yes, I somehow found myself with a group of people who I think represents a huge variety.

I’m not deserving of the alpha-reader title. 😅

I’m still crown…[Read more]

@rae

Plus, one of my beta readers is a YouTuber

That’s something I’ve never heard before XD

It’s also going to be very interesting because she is a self-professed therian, but is already a fan of my art and Baron (she literally made fanart of him)

Nor have I heard that. You’ve found a diverse pool of beta readers.

I’ve been on KP for over two yea…
