Here is his moodboard just because. 😜

@mineralizedwritings

Meaningful characters are hard to write, especially if they aren’t the MC. Depending on their personality, they will be meaningful in different ways. So here are some tips that I hope will be helpful 😁:

1. Give clues to the reader that Layson is important. With side characters, some are important and some aren’t. You gave…[Read more]

@janellebelovedpig

Aren’t big families super fun? You’re “violin-squeaking,” huh? I fiddle around with that instrument too, hoping to learn mandolin or dobrolin sometime.

Yes, they are. 😊

Yep! Lol. I play violin, it just doesn’t always come out sounding pretty. 😜

Cool!!

My favorite vacation spot would be Walton’s Mountain Lodge in CO. 14 year…

They look really great! I can’t draw humans at all, but I’m okay at dragons lol.

@thearcaneaxiom

I don’t quite have a system yet, but I’m basically starting by slowly introducing the words. For example, “om,” “ur,” and “bryn” are all mentioned in the naming of Dune’s ships. The others will most likely be introduced when there are other Felisaro present.

@keilah-h

That works really well! And I’d love to see it. I’m working…[Read more]

@thearcaneaxiom

(Exactly.)

Welcome back, @alia!!

I’m Esther: a volleyball-playing, violin-squeaking, dog-obsessed, homeschooled, God-loving, amateur writer!!

My current WIP is called the Endoxos Trilogy, book one being called Ember of Hope. I also have ideas for stories/novels in a bunch of different genres.

So cool that you play violin too! I suppose that brings me to t…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Yeah. I never want there to be any cursing in my books, so instead I just say in the writing something like “they cursed” instead of saying the words, especially because in that world expressions would be different. Some yell “blazes!” instead, which has been used before by other writers, but I would much rather do that than have actual…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Thanks! It’s just bits and pieces right now, but it’s coming together.

@thearcaneaxiom

“She” as in Rina. Just realized I never clarified. 😅

@thearcaneaxiom

While there might be at some point, I have not yet figured out an ipa chart for it. There is very little standardized grammatical structure, if any, and it would definitely lean towards chaotic yet efficient for secrecy. Most Felisaro are very loyal. The fact that Dune, a character introduced later, is a rogue, endangers the…[Read more]

@thearcaneaxiom

I don’t have everything figured out for the secret language in Healer, but I know it will be fairly random, as they are hoping to keep secrecy by keeping it completely separate from normal language. However, there may be some similarites.

Om- Good.

Ur- Bad.

Bryn- Fortune.

Ka- Attack; fight.

Zyr- Escape; leave; get out.

Those…[Read more]

Why do we bake cookies and cook bacon?

Why do we drive on a parkway and park on a driveway?

Why did Tarzan never have a beard? (This one bothers me for some reason lol)

@keilah-h

It just depends on how you play it. The “in the air” version is more fun to me, and at our church we get really competitive with it. I’m one of the tallest so I always end up going against the older highschoolers.

By the way, I never thought the idea of skipping while walking made sense. And it is something a cartoony five-year-old would do lol

@thearcaneaxiom

(Possibly) (Now, if we are speaking of the unknown as the future, things that are yet to happen, then there is no way that we can make a model that accurately represents it. All we know is the known future. There is an extent and a limit to what we can know. This shows how finite we are, and how omniscient and infinite our God is.…[Read more]

@acancello

I like that! There’s one thing I would change though.

I staggered over to an almond tree that was bent into the shape of a seat that was covered in moss and fallen flower petals. Then sunk down on it breathing hard.

This sentence seems a little clunky since you used two adjective clauses. (Or phrases. I forget which one.) And the n…[Read more]

@alia

I’m new here, but it’s nice to see you’re back!

I’m Solfyre, and I’m about to go into highschool. I love anything to do with reading, writing, music, and I write mainly fantasy, though I have branched out to sci-fi, historical fiction, and mystery lately. I have not played violin much, but I play guitar and have some skill in piano and…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

Then I’m with Freedom on this one. I had no idea. XD
