@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]

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’m between @theducktator and @ellette-giselle on this, but I can’t explain now. Gotta finish my school work first, then I’ll get back to ya.

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.

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]

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]

The hours passed, but there was little dread in them for Joseph. Beric slept most of the time, and when Joseph laid a hand against the boy’s forehead, he found it was still hot with fever. His own eyes burned, and he was sure Stephen was little better.
Afte…

The next morning, Joseph was startled awake by the sound of keys jangling in the lock. He sat up quickly, jolting Amelia awake.
Beric rolled over and yawned.
At the other side of the room, David was a…

“Would you pass the bread?” Stephen asked.
Joseph handed it to him, and Stephen cut a slice. “Amelia, this is truly an amazing supper.”
“It sure is,” Joseph agreed.
Amelia smiled…

Happy Belated Birthday! 🎂🎊🎈
Thank you!
I have finished the book. I was tearing up at the end. Charles was one of my favorites. I still haven’t given up hope that he will be saved in the next book, even though I know he won’t. That hymn was so beautiful and definitely fitting. I’ll try to get to the questions soon, but it…[Read more]

I have the same thought as Hybrid here. Beric has not only been independent for a while now, but he is also a teen. I’m glad you included the scene of his struggle to listen.
Thanks. It actually wasn’t in the first or second draft. I had a reference made to it in the third, but I thought I should flush it out into a full s…[Read more]
