@theducktator I have no idea lol

We watched Fiddler on the Roof and ate homemade oliebollen. 🙂

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

@rae oooooh I like that story!

@ellette-giselle wow! What an ending! I loved the descriptions of the different soldiers’ uniforms and stuff for some reason, and I’m so glad you didn’t kill them off. (I agree with @hybridlore that them dying would’ve worsened the book; it would’ve felt like Aaron’s story all over again. Speaking of which, I’m glad you brought the topic of him…[Read more]

@loopylin

you’re nuts.

lolololol

@hybridlore

No, not harsh at all! This is perfect!

Not sure how many illustrations yet. I think I have 20 for the last one.

Your guess has been noted, but no answers will be given.

Thank you so much!

@ellette-giselle

Oh no!!! That’s terrible!!! That makes me want to cry for you!

I know. I was so mad.

Hmm, I find it funny that you think the ending thing feels a little un-realistic. I wrote it after reading of five different situations in different countries where something like this happened to Believers who had been arrested. XD

I guess the B…

THEOLOGY/MESSAGE

~ Any theological concerns for the story?

I don’t think so.

~ What would you say my world view was?

Christian? XD. (Again, I don’t really know what kind of answer you want here.)

~ What would you say was the message of the story?

God will give us strength when we are weak and help us have the courage to stand up for Him.

~Were…

Wow! This is soooo helpful!

STORYLINE

~ Was the plot solid and engaging?

~ Did the pacing feel consistent throughout the book? If not, where did it lag or feel dull?

I feel like these two kind of go together. The pacing, I felt, was not very consistent. Sometimes we would be skipping over weeks or months, sometimes we would get slow, slice-of-life scenes, and sometimes we…[Read more]

I have a question

I started writing this short story, but before I continue, I’d like to know if it’s interesting.

No title yet

Also, sorry that it’s a little rough

When I was a child I loved to read books. Any moment I had to myself I would crack open a book, squeeze into a tiny but comfy corner and read. I would discover lost worlds, travel…

Oh no!!! That’s terrible!!! That makes me want to cry for you!

Yay! I’m so glad for the feedback! Thank you again so much for doing this!

@ellette-giselle

I’m flexible, so whenever everyone else is ready to read the next book is fine with me. And is it about Leon and Julian?

K, here’s the characters section.
CHARACTERS

~Which character(s) did you find the most compelling/relatable/believable and why?

Joseph, because he’s the main. 🤪 But no, really, we got to see all his inner…[Read more]

I WAS LITERALLY ON THE ILLUSTRATION QUESTION 😣

@ellette-giselle

I was so, so close to finishing your questions, and then a bee came over by me, and I picked up my laptop and ran away (lol.)

But then I accidentally hit the screen somehow and I CLOSED THE LINK!!!

Augggghhhh. I cannot believe that just happened. Now I have to write them all out AGAIN. So this might take a while.

@rae

Ah well, post it soon!!!!

As any of my poor charries will testify, I am very much cruel.

Oh, you think you are……… you should talk to mine.

@ellette-giselle

BUT WHAT HAPPENED! HOW COULD YOU LEAVE US ON A CLIFFHANGER LIKE THAT? CRUEL!!!

i can’t reveal everything! I have to save some surprises for when I post the full story!

As any of my poor charries will testify, I am very much cruel.

@rae

aw, I love his getting to know the horse.

BUT WHAT HAPPENED! HOW COULD YOU LEAVE US ON A CLIFFHANGER LIKE THAT? CRUEL!!!

@whalekeeper @ellette-giselle

Here’s your Baron scene. I’m sorry that it’s so rough.

After they had eaten, Andy took him outside, showing him about the barn, instructing him on basic duties, and telling him about the animals.

As Andy was talking about the cows, a brown horse with a white blaze trotted over to the paddock fence and whinnied. Andy…

AHHH ELLETTE YOU SAVED THEM!!!

I was always going to. I was just having too much fun teasing you! lol.

How stressed were you? Did you think I was going to kill him?

AND IT’S DONE!! CONGRATULATIONS!!

Thank you!!!

Biggest thing I noticed, is that, in the end where Joseph and Amelia are talking,… seemed a little bit like i…
