Yeahhh, that’s how it’s been for me mostly with writing this year too, and getting back in can be difficult, but good luck!!

I use a program called Krita! How about you?

And yes! I’m very excited! But I’ve definitely been there, it felt like I would wait forever. My only advice is just prepare for the tests while you can,…[Read more]

@highscribeofaetherium

Eyy, that’s awesome! Other than the Lit class, but it means more time for creative writing, right?

And digital art is pretty awesome, I enjoy it when I actually make time for it, which is unfortunately not often, but it’s still great 😂

I’m doing pretty rad! Got my driver’s License last week which was awesome wrapping up…[Read more]

Captain Chris and I seem to share the same sleep habits. 😂

Hey!! It’s been far too long, but I promise I do still exist 😂

How is everyone?

@theloonyone

Sorry, I have no idea.

@freed_and_redeemed

Dietrich?

Kurt?

I’m not very good with German names.

@linus-smallprint

Hi Linus, even though we’ve met now, I realized that I never properly greeted you to the Forum, so I thought I’d give a late one.

I’m the Arcane Axiom, I enjoy math, searching for divine fundamental truth, and exploring that in my writing. I read/write sci-fi/fantasy, and am currently working on a universe with my sister called…[Read more]

@freed_and_redeemed
I agree with you. AI art is not real art or AI writing real writing.  It’s amusing to create my characters, and it’s often very accurate,ut I would never sell their images, because I don’t think a computer created image is worth money.

 Because art and writing done by humans has passion…voice…love…intertwined. You can tell it…

Thank you for providing this answer. I do agree with a lot of what you said, such as how whether or not God chooses who he will save is a secondary issue and how going to a church, no matter what the denomination, does not determine whether or not someone is a Christian. However, I still would like some more clarification, if you do not mind. You…

I have read Skyward, but only the first two books. Stormlight, I am a little intimidated by. I’ve heard Sanderson himself describing the opening as a wall you have to climb with your fingernails to understand, and when you reach the top, then you will be able to enjoy it. On the other hand, I have read Wheel of Time. Perhaps I w…

At least from what I can see, Christ did not denounce the Pharisees for trying to be right – because they weren’t. They were pretending to search for truth, and instead abused the original covenant conditions by deconstructing them into aimless laws.

I don’t necessarily see how those ideas are mutually exclusive. Mind you that I did…[Read more]

@theloonyone

Now we can bother each other both over text and on here:P

@linus-smallprint

Story Thieves by James Riley reminds me of Alcatraz, in the way that the two make fun of writing. I’ll tell you if I think of any more.

@whalekeeper

Oh, lol, you beat me to the switch, I’ll read through your post now

@linus-smallprint

By the way, (theducktator, and thearcaneaxiom as well), what books would you recommend to a fan of Tress and Alcatraz?

Hmm, we’ll I’m biased for Sanderson in general, so I’d point to anything from him. Frugal is up the same ally of humor and flair, but you’re already reading that. Have you started Skyward? I think you’d like that…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint @whaley

(Also, as you and Whaley have suggested, perhaps we should take this over to the Apologetics chat and leave this to people who want to discuss Tress of the Emerald Sea)

I agree, so I’m just going to make the switch right now.

A couple of things. Firstly, I did not realize the term ‘Mormon’, is offensive, I am sorry for…

@theloonyone

I have seen both. I’ve seen the Broadway version 3 times because I keep having friends in it. 😆 I’ve seen the Broadway version of the Music Man too.

I’ve actually been in The Sound of Music and in The Music Man and hopefully next year I’ll be able to be in Newsies since my theater group is doing it.

Fun!
