@anatra23 Finally, my field of expertise.

I have heard of all of these! I’ve read several volumes of Horimiya and Your lie in April was my first anime. For a complete list of my read and watched anime, you may consult myanimelist here: https://myanimelist.net/profile/xiajiao

Well, lemme just open up my presentation that I bring with me whenever…[Read more]

The question is, if I tag someone am I apparently forcing a response? (Ok, I get timid at times.)

@keilah-h

Sorry. By the way, if I ever forget to tag someone, don’t hesitate to pop on anyway. I’m still getting used to using the forum.

@trahia-the-minstrel

Thank you!

@anatra23 @koshka

Wasn’t it? And it’s good to end a series before it gets fizled out. He ends it with “Hey, there’s more coming, it’ll be better than what’s here, but that’s a new epoch. Let’s go and have our own adventures.”

And I love the George MacDonald quote as the epigraph. It’s so perfect.

Plus,(sorry this has been a bit of a ramble) if…[Read more]

Oh how many books have I at least confused by reading ahead? Almost every book I read. =|

His books are sooooo good. I hope mine may somehow measure up.*sigh* I would probably have written waayyy to far and ruined it.

Here’s my other pic. I had to put them on separately.

Incomplete sketch. Mouth is only half open.

Aurrgh!! It ate my response three times!!

@elishavet-pidyon

Oh I love birds of prey! Those are some long wing and life spans. Does the fact that they mourn tie in with the book any?

@keilah-h

Are your Ailurids animals or something like the cloven of Wingfeather? Can they and if they are animals, can they think (like people)?

Here is…[Read more]

Yes, they’re from my GE fan fic. The one about a cousin of the Jovesons.

*Note* It ends before any romance enters the scene. 😉 XD

Update

Ok, I read the rest of the book. Yes, I still love it.

@keilah-h

Maybe he does like fan fiction. All I know is that his series is one of the few that have prompted me to write fan fiction. My twin sister and I wrote a sort of extra epilogue using what we consider foreshadowing in the books. We’re still revising it, but I’m fairly…[Read more]

Writing has helped me think in words, to put my thoughts in a written format. But that may be expected. What I didn’t expect was a love for editing.

Yes, editing. Fixing mistakes, taking my horrid words and forming something beautiful. Sadly, I rarely have enough written to reform, and what I do have usually needs complete revision. *Sighs,…[Read more]

@kathleenramm

My typing improved! Ok, that isn’t a nice, deep thinking one one, but it’s true. My spelling and typing have improved* immensely.

Also, writing is teaching me to harness* my imagination. Instead of rambling from character sketch to character sketch, I’m learning to brainstorm ideas and create storylines with meaning behind them.…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Hi, I’m sorry I’m so late in responding. I saw your post fairly soon, but somehow haven’t replied. *Shrugs* (hard to explain, life is, well life.)

Anyway, your creature sounds pretty astounding. I personally love cats, sooo… (And don’t you love the word Humanoid? It’s not my usual type of word, but…)

And I like how you made a name…[Read more]

@kathleenramm Writing has allowed me to appreciate different forms of story more. While more things may seem mediocre now, I can also truly better appreciate the highest forms of literary art, such as classic lit, as well as extremely well done movies. Yes, being a writer ruins some things because now I can predict the plot. But when I can’t…[Read more]

Writing has helped me to understand theology and the character of God better. Not only as I reflect His creativity and sovereignty through sub-creation (obviously on a far inferior scale, and fallibly), but also as I strive to reflect truth in my stories. I’ve had to hammer out my beliefs on a number of topics as they’ve come up in my stories and…[Read more]

@abigail-m

Those are great, I especially like the first and last one. I second Lydia about Mejia.

@lydia-s

Hmm. Did you like what you read of Archer’s Cup? I will admit it wasn’t my favorite, but it’s hard to not have a book of less quality in a series. And his books are SO good. They’ve done what only two other books have, and to a greater…[Read more]
