Because the orphanage plot was out of left field XD

Oh, well what did you expect to happen?

Don’t worry. The orphanage plays a key part in all three books.

@keilah-h

yeah, no kidding!! The amount of drafts you go through before a book is perfect!!!

I mean, it grew a lot from the original, and it clearly isn’t finished either.

@whalekeeper

I’ve already written the whole book. This is my fifth draft actually, and I was looking for reader reaction as well as some thoughts from y’all on structure and character since you are authors. Once I post everything on here, I’m passing this off to my editor.

why do you ask?

@whalekeeper

yes.

@keilah-h @theshadow @whalekeeper @linus-smallprint

New scene!

Asher and Eric were only the first of many war orphans who found shelter in the orphanage. On the second day of the two brother’s arrival, a girl came by saying her mother had felt led to give them some children’s clothing and she hoped Sabina could find someone who needed them. Aft…

Ooo, we haven’t met the Kunulfs yet. If they go after Alan (and Oliver) for being lefthanded you can use their terror to scare the reader.

Ok, I’m done giving un-asked for ideas.

Sorry.

😀

@linus-smallprint

By the way, I discovered today is Lefthanders day (according to Microsoft at least). What a coincidence!

But then that makes right-handers day ALL THE OTHER days of the year!!! 😀

@linus-smallprint

When you say you don’t have much to say, you mean it. lol.

Don’t you find it a little funny that Aaron is the one to bring the kids back after being the strongest opposer of the idea?

@keilah-h

Yeah, I know. it’s horrid.

Anyhow, we’ll see what Linus decides to do with all this info. lol

@keilah-h

Clarification, I don’t believe all that about witchcraft and the devil involved with left hand. That was just the belief back then. ;D

@keilah-h

Yup, they’re starting to.

@keilah-h

I didn’t say that. I only said they burned their hands and cut their palms. They would also brake a lefty’s hand if they thought he was dangerous or they were especially cruel.

They did it because they are lost sinners and were listening to the devil.

It’s prejudice and superstition in one of it’s mots violent forms.

You see, The…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Why did I suggest it or why did they do it?

@keilah-h @theshadow @whalekeeper @linus-smallprint

new section!!!

The days passed, and the people of Ardenta waited in eager anticipation for the Sabbath. They longed to see each other, to hear from Aaron, and to be united in worship once again. At last, the week’s end came.

Early in the morning, before the sun or soldiers were up, the people w…

@linus-smallprint

Oh, good. I was sure I did.

@linus-smallprint

Yes, I think this will help.

Thank you so much!

@linus-smallprint

Because, your country seems to have a little superstition what with the wizards and all that. In the olden days, (which your book is fantasy so i can’t quite tell the era) People were really cruel to lefties because they believed it was a sign of demonic inhabitants or the practice of witchcraft. Soooo, I thought that might be…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

Hey, I had an interesting thought……. Is Alan left handed?
