I don’t know how some of you people write romance novels. I have a new respect for y’all, because this is exhausting. Not bad, just exhausting.

@grcr

That’s a lot, haha. I bet many of them are siblings to the protagonists.

@ellette-giselle

Awesome.

Probably good advice. I would, but it’s already in his backstory, and I didn’t want to go back and change it now.

And I mostly just lost it when I realized that this, being a modern real life setting, I couldn’t go sort through or make up the customs and laws myself, like I could for nearly any of my other WIPs.…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Ah, thank you! This is a lot of helpful information.

Okay, so the kid is in Canada at the time (Quebec) as that’s the family residence. I have found a bit of legal stuff for Canada by now, but haven’t started looking into the American side. This is so beautifully concise (which legal documents are definitely not).

This is…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

I am also sorry if my previous comment came off as pushy. I was not frustrated at you at all, I was more curious than anything, and I really wanted to clarify what the conversation was about.

@linus-smallprint

If you want to discuss the actual morality of rebellion, I am open to do so. I am curious to know why some Christians believe it is okay to rebel and overthrow governments.

But yeah, maybe it is best if I talk to someone older. I will see what Douglas Bond says in his books.

That was where I thought the conversation was going,…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Ah, that makes sense. The problem of which country would have legal authority was the part that stumped me, and I figured Canada, which leads to nothing because I know nothing about Canada.

@ellette-giselle

What do you think of it as? The meaning?

I don’t know. It’s a cute name to me. 😂

@ellette-giselle

Great sections!

Rory is such a cute name. I love that scene. 😂

@linus-smallprint

Okay, thanks though. Neither do I.

*Uncertain laughter*

@stephie

Hmmm, not a bad idea. I’ll look into that.

@ellette-giselle

Alrighty. =)

Also not certain exactly how an ongoing murder investigation would pan out/effect things, when there’s no clear suspect or solid evidence besides the dad’s work (Parents were…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I was reading a different book on my phone. 🙃

@ellette-giselle

Wow. Didn’t expect that.

Great twist!!

@ellette-giselle

So there’s two rebellions? Didn’t realize that.

@ellette-giselle

Well. That was sad.

Poor Amber… and poor Ron. 😢

So was Nathan one of the rebels? And did 210’s explanation mean that the government is on to them? I wasn’t sure if I was reading that right.

@grcr Ok, 🙁 I’ll keep praying

Asking for prayers for myself and my family. My brother’s leaving for college on Friday. 🥺 My parents will drive him down then and the rest of us siblings will stay with my grandparents over the weekend. I’m trying to be excited for him, and I genuinely am, but I’m also going to miss him a lot. He’ll be all the way in Florida (we live in Ohio), so…[Read more]

@rae @grcr Any updates?

@ellette-giselle

Good chapters. Nice touch of action towards the end! And that was a good cliffhanger. 😬

Really, I don’t mind if you don’t want to talk about it, I just thought you wanted to.

@linus-smallprint

I understand what you’re saying about personal conviction. I believe God is still with you anyway.

I’m trying to respectfully discuss the conviction itself, since you have argued the rebellion in Ellette’s book is a problem. You challenged the morality. You already put morality on the table. Thus, I was under the assum…[Read more]
