Haha, you’re fine! Let your imagination take you wherever you want, maybe it’ll produce more ideas I could end up using at some point lol.

Kari

Kari glanced down at the notebook in her hand and the increasing shadows outside. The sun was setting, and this was nothing like what she had planned for her evening. If she didn’t leave soon, it would be dark, and she didn’t want to be alone in this house…[Read more]

Kari’s coming to join!

Breathing heavily from the exertion, Kari paused on her way up the hill to catch her breath. As she looked around at her surroundings, she noticed a house she had not seen before. She had intended to climb the hill and spend the evening…[Read more]

I think someone mentioned this already earlier, but C.S. Lewis did a fantastic job using Aslan to represent God. Okay, the whole way he created Narnia and all the characters in those stories just blows my mind sometimes, but I love how Lewis chose a lion to represent God in the stories. Watching Aslan interact with the characters…[Read more]

I would love to tour Europe sometime! I’ve seen a little bit of England when I went with my parents to visit some missionaries in Wales a couple years back, but my ancestors are from Switzerland so it would be fun to go there. And I took French so I’d love to go to France, too.

@freedomwriter76

I totally understand your concern.

I’d say that in the first chapter that’s in his POV, showcase his positive character traits, but also give us a glimpse into his internal conflict so we see that he isn’t as perfect as he seems on the outside. Slowly revealing his backstory like you said you’d do will also help readers start t…[Read more]

I’m late, but everyone had such good points on this! I love reading about this topic, since that’s something I think about a lot.

Tbh, a lot of my worlds are really similar to each other, and so I haven’t really experimented with this a lot, although it would be interesting to try different things. I usually try to focus…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

I really like that scene! Their brother dynamic is so good XD

@acancello

Gotcha! 😁 Tell your brother I said happy birthday! I know, XD it is weird.

Happy first day of fall everyone!!

Ok! I finally got it! Here ya are!

(And fyi, so far I’ve decided that the language they speak in Amir’s country is Farsi, or something very close to it, so if he talks in a different language, that’s what it is.)

(Oh, and I’m assuming we decided on the bal…[Read more]

(You just made me think, and now I feel old. I’ve been around a lot longer than most of the people regularly on here nowadays. XD)

Are you talking about before Riker turns himself in, or the end of the series?

In the former case, I’d like to ask if Riker would even go to Leon? He’s already asked for forgiveness time and again.…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76

Leon seeking Riker is much more powerful – even if he doesn’t succeed. He might not know where exactly to look, but Leon looking for Riker shows his heart. I like it.

Also, another thing I’ve been meaning to mention to you: I was reading an autobiography that made me think of you. It was by Benjamin Urshan, a minister born in…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Awww, I love thisss!! 🥰

Oh yesss, I really need to get back into this!!

@acancello @trailblazer @freedomwriter76 @grcr @mineralizedwritings @savannah_grace2009

😱 I wrote almost the whole RP and then accidentally tapped on one of the links at the bottom of the page and lost it! 😭 I don’t think I have time to rewrite the whole thing now, but I promise I’ll have it posted later today or tomorrow. 😅

@fernweh_grace

Welcome! I’m Janessa, aka Trailblazer, and I’m still fairly new here, too! I write a lot of contemporary fiction and also historical fiction, and I’ve tried my hand at mysteries, too. I’ve done some journalism, and I enjoy photography, especially when it involves mountains! I like to get out and hike, but unfortunately I don’t live…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76

I like this idea! I’ve been sharing some of one of my WIPs in a separate forum I started, but I might drop some things in here, too!

@hybridlore Thanks! I’m glad you’re enjoying it!

I definitely want to try to show some more interactions between Libbie/Etta and some of the other girls from school (Lillian, Sara, Jennie, etc.). I just need to figure out what sub-plots I could work in.

@fernweh_grace

Oh, okay! Really? I love mountains too XD I’ll have to google that range, but I did see pictures of Lesotho and it looked really pretty! Is it very remote where you live?

Ooh, okay, awesome! It sounds pretty cool, I would love to hear about the plot if you want to share it! Is it fantasy?

I loved the wingfeather saga, narnia, and…[Read more]
