Hey y’all, finals are over, and I’m still alive somehow.  *Sheepish grin*

Silvia

“Oh. Alright. I…” She tugged at her newly scarlet blouse with a grimace. A good hot shower would be great right about now. “I don’t know. Those creeps jacked our com unit. I can try using encryption, but-” her eyes widened. “Oh…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Yes, he is blind. Don’t worry, you didn’t miss any dramatic scenes. 😉 If you read back, you can see we insinuated his blindness earlier. For instance, the conversation between Onnendel and Dwogin about the sunset.

It’s part of his backstory. We’ll explain the it more in a couple chapters. (Hint: Shadow Dread is an illness…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Yay! So glad you like it!

Yeah, that would be a problem. As long as they believed you, pulling the author card might be the best defense.

And here’s Monday’s installment!

In Which Dwogin Will Not Be Outdone, and Aenwest Meets The Abyss (Nearly)

Chapter 4

It was amazing what three days of hard travel could do to a landscape . Gone were the deep woods full of mushrooms and squirrels. We had passed up into broken foothills where the…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

It is tragic. Let us take heart, however, for Monday’s chapter is nearly done.

*offers a handkerchief*

@hybridlore @ellette-giselle

I’m so glad y’all are enjoying this! Your encouragement helps us keep it up. So far it’s plotted out to last us well nigh New Year’s.

I do have bad tidings though. We are entering “IsitreallyfinallsweekalreadywhydidweenrollineightweekclassescanyoudieofessaysIthoughtIhadstudiedIdon’trememberanythinganymore.” A…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

Oh, it sounds fascinating so far! I like your characters and the world is intriguing. I’ll wait to add critiques untill I understand you story more. 🙂

(By the by, I only have 16 pages for my “main” WIP, and all but four is just me getting distracted by the various backstories. But let’s not despise the day of small things. [Zec 4:10])

@koshka

*dissolves into a jumble of joy bubbles*

It’s the little Natan boy! Awwwww.

Another great example on how to make a character sympathetic, despite being “cold as the alps.” XD

Also one of the worst heartbreaks I’ve had over a character. Thank you for reminding me.

*sniff*

@ellette-giselle

I really do have a lot of work I’m currently avoiding.

@whalekeeper @ellette-giselle

Leo

Marcel didn’t look too good, but that was kinda to be expected. What he’d give to hear the full story right now.

The elevator doors slid open. Leo led them down the winding aisles of humming machinery to the break room door. Maybe it wasn’t wise to retreat to the same position twice, but he didn’t have much of…[Read more]

*still flipped on floor*

Homework…due… must save ice cream.

@Elishavet-Pidyon Here’s some Nathan quotes!

A wiry skeleton of a man crossed the courtyard between them. Strolled, actually, as if he couldn’t hear the shots whizzing overhead. They both stared in wonder.

“He’s either deaf,” whispered Anthony, “or he’s absolutely crazy.”

~Brother Enemy; Promise of Zion by Robert Elmer

“That’s it.” Ant…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Ahhh, Green Ember. It’s so wonderfully good.

@the_lost-journal

1) Have you ever copied something from another book or movie or something?

Do you expect me to answer that? That’s plagiarism! *Gasp* I have written/am writing several fanfics, so there’s a safe “Yep I stole that”.

II) Have you ever started a story or poem (that had a really good plot or idea) but never finished or started…

Welcome to the Kingdom of Pen! I’m Koshka, a writer of rustic noble-bright fantasy (of the middle-grade kind), some nonfiction (of the college essay kind), and poetry (of the I stayed up too long after midnight kind). I also like digging around in history, dabbling with random languages, and playing with pencils. Oh, and I like…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

Greetings and welcome to the Kingdom of Pen!

I’m called Elishavet around here, and I write rustic noblebright fantasy, although I have been known to experiment in sci-fi and nonfiction.

You read The Adventures of Tintin? My brother got me into those a while back, but we don’t often meet people who know them. Also, Wingfeather…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

YES. Green Ember quotes!!   🐰⚔️🐺

To my knowledge, I’m just as free next week as this one. I can always log onto my phone etc, while working on something else. (I’ve got mostly online classes.)
