    @savannah_grace2009

    I don’t really know much about abuse effects or anything like that other than I’ve read in books, thankfully. One thing I would ask is, is it absolutely necessary to the plot/character? Because I think that can really easily become a cliched, sort of stereotypical in books, so if you’re just throwing it in there to make the…[Read more]

    Hi Nevaeh! It’s nice to meet you!

    I’m hybridlore on here, or just Hybrid, a Christian, violinist, and sci-fi/dystopian writer. I’m also a homeschooler and enjoy doing lots of things! 😁

    Okay, maybe you can revive the nonfiction section on here… I don’t know exactly what’s going on over there, but I don’t think it’s used very often.…[Read more]

    @hanako

    Hi. I’m not much for intros, but I’m a blue-eyed girl who’s insane about horses, passionate about writing, loves her God, plays the piano, dabbles in poetry and machine embroidery, and reaches for the sky…But hasn’t reached it yet. I’m a homeschooler with a big imagination at the age of fourteen. Good to meet you. **Hand…[Read more]

    Yeah, I definitely like viola better, because of the sound, I guess. I don’t really know, but it just fits me better.

    Yeah, I get that. It’s really similar to violin, just a little deeper, right? I don’t think you have an E string.

    My inspiration for my WIP was a bunch of different books and one of my friends, who loves to imagine a…

    Advice and characters is mostly what I shall be doing. Characters profiles, art, anything. And advice would be the most random things, cuz that’s how my mind works.

    @grcr

    Last count of characters was 109+/- and that was Jan. 8th. Since then, I created a lot more and haven’t bothered to count them, I should though, sometime. I’ve got way too many characters.

    I like to write third person, but when learning about a new character, or just in the mood, I will write little bits of scenes in first. I don’t do well…[Read more]

    @hanako

    Welcome to KP! I’m Janessa, aka Trailblazer, and I enjoy reading, hiking, and photography (and of course, writing- why else would I be here?). I write mostly contemporary fiction, historical, a little mystery, and some journalism.

    I see your quote by Patrick Henry; do you like history? If so, what time period is your favorite? I’m a bit…[Read more]

  • Trailblazer replied to the topic Apologetics in the forum Mission, Calling & Ethics 3 years ago

    @thearcaneaxiom

    Yes, I agree with that as well. I’ve grown up in a charismatic church, so I also believe Holy Spirit still speaks to us today, and I do agree that feeling or sensing the Holy Spirit is different that our own emotions and feelings, and yes, it is a process of discernment to distinguish between the two.

    And going back to the…[Read more]

    @spinner4him

    Yeah, I love pretty much any American history, but especially the 1700s and 1800s. The story I’m currently writing is set in the midwest in the late 1800s so it feels a little bit like the Little House series.

    @thearcaneaxiom @whalekeeper

    I wanted to add some thoughts on the question of discerning truth. I agree with Whaley’s assessment, because if we are constantly making decisions based on how we feel, we’re headed down a dangerous path. Feelings and emotions don’t last; we may feel something one day and the next day have a totally different feeling…[Read more]

  • @sarafini

    What exactly do you mean by non-magical? Or maybe a better question is, what things do you classify as magical? I feel like everyone has a slightly different take on what they consider magical. And also it depends how it’s used, too- C. S. Lewis has some in his books, but the approach he takes on it is different than other books.

  • Ruth replied to the topic Hi. I'm RAE in the forum Start HERE 3 years ago

    Okay…

    I’m lost. Do I just join some random topic or is that like bursting into a random person’s house? Should I make a new topic and go from there? I guess I’m just nervous.

  • Ruth replied to the topic Hi. I'm RAE in the forum Start HERE 3 years ago

    @smiley

    Honestly, Mom bought the Chuck Black Kingdom Series, and I never got past the third chapter of the first one. I don’t feel for the characters, so it’s boring.

    OHHHH…**Lightbulb moment** Okay, yeah, I guess I’ve done that once or twice, but not often at all. Actually, I should do that more often. I’ve done it mentally with my favorite…[Read more]

    Welcome! I’m Janessa, aka Trailblazer, and I write a lot of contemporary and historical fiction (which, if you’re interested in reading his/fic, feel free to check out the topic I started in the novel critique section, where I’ve been posting segments from my WIP), a little bit of mystery, and some journalism. I enjoy hiking and…[Read more]

  • @savannah_grace2009

    Okay, here’s my advice. Plotting works for some people, but for the rest it doesn’t. If outlining kills your creative process, then don’t worry about doing it. I think it’s a lot of just experimenting and finding out what works for you. For me, I’m more of a pantser, but I usually know a few events that are going to happen in…[Read more]

  • @sarafini

    You should definitely read the other two series! They’re so good!

  • @thearcaneaxiom

    Hi! Saw this topic and wanted to check it out! It’s really interesting so far!

    I think in the beginning, the style of the writing was kind of confusing. Overall it does give the idea of like, very choppy thoughts, sort of less established, so if that’s what you were going for, then great job. I just think that it might throw…[Read more]

    @esther-c

    Actually, I don’t think those questions have been asked before. Congrats!

    Who is your favorite character to write and why? Nahim Alfred Nayhelm, last of his family-clan. I know him as well as if he were my sibling (except whether he would like vanilla or chocolate ice cream, as far as I know, he’s never had it.)

    What is your favorite…[Read more]

    @mineralizedwritings

    Okay… to answer your question, not cottagecore, nor dark academia, nor piratecore. I guess the vibe would be kind of adventure? Warrior? Ugh, this is not going well…think of star wars, but different galaxy, different characters, different plots, and one step above tech wise. Oh, and mandalorian viewpoint, but different.…[Read more]
