Good morning!!! You’re bright and early! Normally Hybridlore is my first reader. Looks like you got her place! 😂

😄

Oh wait…Helene is said like He-leen?

Oh, come on! Adrian wasn’t always dead. I would like to know what he was like when he was alive on earth.

Speaking of Adrians, have you ever read “Lysbeth”?
No! What’…

*squeals with delight over a new treasure*

Erich and his wife Helene are such a sweet couple, and Erich has the makings of a strong leader.

*dances around the room*

I am SO stealing that name from you!!!!!!! I have a Helen in my story…but I never thought of spelling it like that! It fits my character so much more to add an…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Cool!!! I really liked the idea of a Daniel twist. Plus, it gives me Narnia fkashbacks with Shasta in the desert. That just makes me happy. 😊

Yes! I was reminded of Shasta as well!

But why do you like him over Rolf’s other friends??! (I mean, I like him best, but I know his entire story. You just saw a tiny bit of i…

Another thing:

Why is it that bad guys always seem to ride black horses?

“Because, God has called me to bring the message of salvation to my people,” Rolf replied.

Hmmm…I thought you were going to take the story to where God had called those two to stay there and evangelize that area…but I guess not.

Leon smirked, havi…

@ellette-giselle

Neat! I loved the part of when the lion came to rescue them. As soon as I read about that lion I knew it was there to protect them!!!! That happened to a character of mine as well.

Hmm…the part when they got tied in the dessert gave me flashbacks of Leiand.

And…*crying* You killed another one of my favorite characters! Why…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

Who are the moderators?

@freed_and_redeemed

Woah. I’ve not read your books yet…but man, this sounds very interesting! Oh on…Franz…isn’t that the bad guy I asked you about? Poor Riker! From all that I’ve read about him…he’s always facing fear from his past…

@ellette-giselle

By the way, in The War to End All Wars, the guy actually gave his life to the other man. It was so sad…the story is about these American soldiers who are captured by the Japanese.

I don’t remember all the details, but one of the prisoners was caught doing something…and he and two other men were going to be executed. But the…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

So, this is really cazy because I never thought this scene was one of my best!! 😂

It’s a stunning scene! I LOVE it!!

I’m so happy! I posted it and I was like, “Liberty’s gonna love this!!!”

You were so right!

So, what do you think of Kareem and his story???!

I really like him, and he’s very intriguing. He sounds like a charact…[Read more]

ROLF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh my gosh, Ellette!! I literally cried happy tears when I read that!!!

WOW oh WOW!!!!!!

I’m SO happy! This entire section was phenomenal!!! The part when Leon saves Ian…when Leon…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Actually, that scene with Leon was inspired by a true account I read! Wonder if it’s the same one?

Well, the one that touched me was in a movie. Maybe you’ve heard of it? “The War to End all Wars”? It’s a WW2 film.

@ellette-giselle

“Lord, all that’s down there is trouble. Nothing good happens out here after dark. I’m going home.”

*grin* Yup. That never works for an excuse!

Go now, and sin no more,

Perfect!

The whip tore into his back again and Leon felt himself jerk with the force of the blow. Oh God, forgive them!

Oh. WOW. I love this scene! Not because…[Read more]

shooting stones

Do you have an actual game this is based off?

“A story of a great warrior hero who loves children and saves his bride,” Julian repeated. He looked at Roland who gave him a smile. “I think I know just the story.”

Aww!!!😍 I love this part!

“You do that,” Aelic replied coldly.

I’m pretty sure Aelic is remembering…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I totally thought you’d be at me for separating them, but I guess you didn’t mind Rolf dropping out of the book.

I was devastated, but it works better with them getting split apart.

So, Rolf never shows up again?

@ellette-giselle

Okay, when I read this, I was immediately hit with this thought: “They’re going to the arenas.”

Am I correct on this?

Obviously not.

@ellette-giselle

The meals worried Leon. Obviously, Hassan was trying to keep them strong and healthy… but to what end?

Okay, when I read this, I was immediately hit with this thought: “They’re going to the arenas.”

Am I correct on this?

“No. Not Really!” Rolf laughed.

That’s funny! I could totally see Leon writing songs and writing. Maybe becau…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

you just love sailor characters. 😝

Yup. I’m not ashamed of it either!! Hmmm…well, being a sailor is a good reason for me to like him, but I really liked him because he was a well-mannered sailor. Many aren’t. I immediately liked him because he was truly trying to help Julian and his friends.

Pfft!! What!! A unicorn! That’s i…

@ellette-giselle

Yup. Julian got hit hard….

Also, I have a character named Julian as well! He was once a haughty prince…until he got turned into a unicorn. My story was a twist of the “Frog Prince”.

@ellette-giselle

“For You, God, tested us; You refined us like silver.”

I read that verse today!

 The next day, Roland was ready to go on, but there was no sign of Rolf and Leon.

Wow. He’s healing fast. I had a sprain before and it took 2 whole weeks to heal!

Oooh! I love Dian!

“Dian! Kom hier. Ek het jou hulp nodig.”

I think I know what he’s say…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Yes! That song really goes up and down. Have you learned “Not Alone”? (the most epic Christian girl song ever…)
