Thanks for the trophy! XD
A few questions. Is this earth, or a different planet with a similar history. Did you give the nation the name Aletheia out of irony? Aletheia means truthful and revealing, but it’s a nation that has been trapped by the Orb, closed off, hidden, within a lie. Perhaps for those that come out of the Orb to be…[Read more]

Aren’t those both used entirely interchangeably?

Is it possible? Do questions inspire baristas because they are something to think about whilst barista-ing?

If there is spiritual meaning to those, is that meaning purely pointed out for our fancy, or could its etymology be traced to those meanings?
If it is true that it is a spiritual sense, then would up for something be saying that you intend to grow because of the activity? Then would down for something also be affirmative because your…[Read more]

TheArcaneAxiom replied to the topic What's a question??? in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 6 months ago
Is the question as to whether you discovered these questions or they already existed an allegory to the question of whether mathematics, logic, or even reality itself is invented or discovered?
Is genius found, or made? Is it in the creative student, or the wise elder? Is it both?
If we are looking at uniquely the English alphabet,…[Read more]

Buuuut as far as the first question goes… you could have his parents killed for seeking peace? But Len doesn’t know that they were seeking peace, just that their “enemy”, whoever that may be didn’t like their motives? (I’m trying to figure out how to explain what I’m picturing XD) But like, all Derek wants is peace throughout th…

Why have I not seen this sooner?
Have you not seen this sooner because you have a life beyond just the questions, or are the questions your life?
How awesome is this?
Is it as awesome as a possum, or maybe chocolate frosten?

Great question! I’m actually a conlanger (conlang means constructed language). So Often before I come up with a character name, I make the language that character speaks first. I also think about the kinship system, and how that might influence how a child is named, along with surnames.
Yeah, Christian family adventures are…[Read more]

Oooooh I really like this @esther-c! I’m struggling with my villain at the moment so I don’t know how much help I’ll be. XD

Len’s parents could have been involved in some kind of dangerous or just forbidden movement, but I’m not sure exactly how that would fit into your plot. Or maybe they were killed by members of that movement/society. If they were members of the society, then Len’s redemption arc could have something to do with figuring that out,…

Ok guys. My villain needs some help. Or rather, I, as his author, need some help. I need to decide on his evil title and part of his motivation.
First, some background on him: (Warning: There are a few spoilers. Read at your own risk.) (Another Warning: I do mention murder a few times.)
Derek Len desired peace. It was all he wanted. All he…[Read more]

Esther replied to the topic What makes a character meaningful? in the forum Characters 3 years, 6 months ago
Meaningful characters are hard to write, especially if they aren’t the MC. Depending on their personality, they will be meaningful in different ways. So here are some tips that I hope will be helpful 😁:
1. Give clues to the reader that Layson is important. With side characters, some are important and some aren’t. You gave…[Read more]

Aren’t big families super fun? You’re “violin-squeaking,” huh? I fiddle around with that instrument too, hoping to learn mandolin or dobrolin sometime.
Yes, they are. 😊
Yep! Lol. I play violin, it just doesn’t always come out sounding pretty. 😜
Cool!!

Is it? Am I?
Because that’s a form of inversion, and because letters are really just symbols holding arbitrary information, could it perhaps make every letter?

I gripped Arabella’s hand tightly as we walked through the dark hall.
I held my breath as a shadow seemed to rise up and take form. Then, just as suddenly, it sank back down.
I sucked in a shaky breath, shuddering at the memories that played about in the far corners of…[Read more]

That’s totally fine! 🙂 I get that. It’s kinda draining.
I actually was already doing a Asher RP! 😀 Lol yeah, I can.
(Also, random question, but do you like Star Wars? I’m becoming more and more into it, and wondering if you’ve seen any of the movies or shows. If so, have you watched the Obi Wan Kenobi show?)
