NEXT SECTION!

The seventeenth year of Emperor Haidronias’s reign
February 16th
The Empire

Loosing Aelic has been the most heartbreaking thing I have experienced since Adrian’s death. Aelic was such a dear brother, and we all love…

@loopylin Speaking of wise women,

Mother: That guy… He looks like, like…

Us: Gandalf!

Mother: Yes!

Us: In a button down flannel shirt!

Mother: What is he doing at Brookshire’s?

(Really happened. We saw Gandalf walk out of a local grocery store dressed like a country bumkin. It was unnerving.)

Me*holding up cast*: You know, this is such…[Read more]

@trailblazer

Those are great. Coworker conversations are the best and worst things to overhear. XD

Why do you ask? (To  you, Whaley, not Master Smith)

@whalekeeper

Oh my. Ok. Um…

We know what his favorite cookie is. 🤔

Ack, that’s a good question but my brain is blanking. Something with writing or his time in Africa…

Maybe which one if his characters is his favorite?

*Wonders if I wasted my hypothetical question* XD

@keilah-h

Yes! Agreed.

At least Martin made the right choice. I would argue his death scene was the most frightening one I’ve written.

@whalekeeper

haha!!!

Oh yes, absolutely.

@whalekeeper

Oh really? I love them. It’s so fun to start tying them together in subtle ways.

In the first one, all three end up frequenting the same cafe at different times, and only a few readers pick that up because I never state the name, but I describe the surroundings the same. Things like that.

One of the MC’s works with another…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Ooo! Cool!

I did one with the first book in the series and I’ve decided to keep going with it thought the whole trilogy.

@whalekeeper

Nope, he’s an MC. But it’s a three-way POV, so there are two other MCs.

He’s also an interesting character because of his job…. so he has that going for him.

@koshka

Nooooo! The twins have separated!!!  😱

@koshka

Ooo! Yay!

Is your sister going with you?

@hybridlore

I know poor Aelic. This is my fourth time though that scene as a draft, (read it several times just for fun) and it still gets me. Ugh.

(I’m wondering what’s happening to Aiden now that Martin believed and died too. It would have been tough to see his brother and his cousin killed like that.)

I know!!! The poor kid! 😱

Guess we’…[Read more]

@koshka

Ooo yay! Graduation!

oh! So are you leaving home, or is it close enough to access?

@whalekeeper

no, not really! I like her ideas. I have written quiet moody characters, but I don’t know if they’re quite like this.

I have a current moody character, but he’s not super likeable. (except that he happens to be all my reader’s favorite) he’s doing the right thing, but he kinda hates the world. (and has good reason to) But then he…[Read more]

@koshka    @whalekeeper

I like Koshka’s idea.

@whalekeeper

The wise fool!!!Where one character is expected to be foolish/silly and instead is incredibly wise. So, there’s a book, A Letter for the King, that took this trope literally, and is spectacular. In the book, Tirillo is the king’s fool, but he’s also secretly a paladin knight and has this incredible wisdom that shows up in the…[Read more]

@koshka

well then, prepare for impact. 🤣

Collage I’m guessing? Or is your semester over already?

@whalekeeper

Ugh. Those characters make me want to smack them.

Okay, WHY is he that way?

@koshka

I’m sorry! I didn’t know Aelic was your favorite!

Leo? At the moment?

Uhhh…… possibly in an Agent interrogation room……
