I think it was a combination fo the letter and how Amelia was protesting at the beginning that she was not having plague symptoms.

hmm. Okay, do you think I should take out that part in the letter? Or should I just leave it and let the reader be happy that they guessed a plot twist or else shocked that they didn’t see…[Read more]

Thank you again. I would like to do this with the illustrations in the Narnia books someday.

That would be AWESOME! Oh you really, really need to do that!!!! Oh that WOULD BE SO COOL! Please do, and post them on her and tag me!!

@linus-smallprint

Thank you for taking my feedback so graciously. It’s hard having stances like this, (and many others) that seem silly or foolish. I think you’re the first person to take something like this that I said and not turn around and try to bite my head off or attack me. A lot of times people will ask me questions like this, and I’m…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

That looks great!

*screeches* I typed out a whole reply and it got eaten! I’ll type it out again sooo.

@ellette-giselle

I’m aware that it is real, and I would never go to a seance or something, but this particular magic is made up, and it isn’t like occult magic. I do think that fantasy magic in general is harmless, (though most of the fantasy I read is Christian and/or middle grade so it doesn’t get that dark), though maybe not this one since it…[Read more]

I don’t know what about the drawing and screenshot makes we want to scream with delight, but there is just something….. the pose, the feel, the emotion…….. MAN! That is incredible that you drew that, and I love how you took the screenshot and turned it into your own style!

@theducktator

Yes, but magic is real too. The Bible says so.I think one of the most dangerous things we can do is view it as unreal and harmless.

@linus-smallprint

I don’t even know what to say!

THAT IS INCREDIBLE!

That is so, so cool!!!!

WOW!!! I think that’s the best thing you have ever drawn that you’ve posted on here! WOW!!!

@ellette-giselle

The difference with the graphic murder/adultery thing is that those are real, while Linus’ magic system is made up. Thinking about murder and adultery is different than thinking about pretend magic.

@theducktator   @linus-smallprint

My thoughts are not that a reader will be tempted to use magic. It’s just the fact of putting those images in their mind. Same as why we don’t write super graphic scenes or Rated R type scenes. It’s not that we’re worried the readers will graphically kill someone or commit adultery if they read it, it’s the f…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

Oh, I almost forgot!

That section you just read has some HUGE changes for Joseph. What are your thoughts on where he has just arrived spiritually? Any thoughts on the connections he’s starting to make and the fact that he’s seeing the truth?

@linus-smallprint

I didn’t have a problem with the magic images. Since this is fiction, I don’t think readers will attempt to do the magic, since it is evil, and unless the images are actually based on occult magic, I don’t see any harm with the reader picturing them.

@linus-smallprint

Woah! You hit me with a lot. *goes and re-reads sections to see where you are*

Okay.

When Amelia started feeling unwell, I kind of suspected she might be pregnant.

Yeesh! It looks like we were wrong.

Okay, why is that? Was it just because that seemed logical, or because you thought I was above killing a girl, (I’ll have you…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

Okay, to me it wasn’t so much that the images were real/unreal/creepy/cute/etc.etc. That’s not what matters to me. what matters is letting the reader picture what Alan is picturing when that thing is sinful. I mean…. ugh….. how to put this……… okay, one thing is that if there is any book that we are reading and the…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

*screams* he’s back!

I just meant the look on his face. lol.

Oh cool! I will be saving that one into my collection!

@keilah-h

(Okay I guess I’ll tag you to bring this to the top as a reminder.)

Good morning!

@whalekeeper

oh my goodness, you’re hilarious!

@whalekeeper

Those are awesome! Especially the Eric one!😂

@keilah-h

I’ll send them as soon as I draw them. I’m finishing up illustrations for LTBL, so it may be a little bit.

On the fence is just where I wanted you as a reader!!

Will do! I’ll remind ya!
