Nice! We can form the left-handed Canadians club!

@ellette-giselle @stephie

Honestly, I think this was actually okay. God gives strength, understanding, peace, awareness, revelation, and courage in the time He has chosen for the people who are receiving it.

Those were my thoughts. Even though it felt like the climax was too soon for Alan, I know that if a Christian is persecuted a week after he…[Read more]

@stephie

Thanks!

He doesn’t look completely sinister, but there’s something about him that doesn’t sit quite right. You know what I mean?

Well, that fits. Remember, he was able to trick Cyrus into trusting him.

Here is the full reference sheet. This is the first time I have done one of these. Newer drawings are to the left. I’m left-handed, so I have to do it backwards if I want to avoid smudging my work.

Having antlers on your back would be very inconvenient. But sometimes you have to sacrifice comfort for looks.

Iskyagus Reference Sheet

Just drew the villain of my series for the first time. I probably should have experimented around some more, but I kind of like the look and feel of him here. His name is Iskyagus.

@whalekeeper

I should say thank you to you for providing reasons to keep it as well and reminding me that I can’t please everyone. One of my struggles is that I always try to, but deep down I know I can’t.

@whalekeeper

👍

*plays how to train your dragon theme song*

By the way, did you read what I decided to do with my magic system? You were the one who was encouraging me to keep it the way it was the most. While I have made my choice and am going to stick with it, I am curious to see what you think.

@whalekeeper

(You can do whatever you want with them, to be clear. :p)

I know. But I think they would end up together, so I think I will let it happen. Sometimes it’s just interesting to watch your characters do their own thing.

@whalekeeper

This is a list of all the suggestions of romance between Alan and Martha – that I can find.

Wow.

Some of those were not meant to be that. Martha was always just a little older than Alan even before I had any ideas of putting them together. I can see why everyone (including myself) ends up wanting them to marry.

You missed o…[Read more]

@stephie

Thank you very much for the feedback! I few comments/questions I have on it:

You also got me rooting for a romance between Martha and Alan! Don’t know whether that was intentional or whether us readers were just like “get them together.”

Not completely intentional. When I started working in this I put my foot down, saying ‘no roman…[Read more]

@theducktator

*facepalm* I just remembered I never filled out the feedback document. I’ll do that soon.

No worries. I look forward to your thoughts!

This seems like a good compromise. I intend to continue reading. Do you know when book 2 will be done?

Awesome! I intend to finish a draft of it this year. Hopefully with some time to spare before 2…[Read more]

My plan is to start on this at the beginning of Febuary

@ellette-giselle

of course, I haven’t read the changes yet, but from what I think I’m understanding you saying, this seems like a really good option. I’m definitely still going to be reading. (unless I end up hitting some snags with the new way you chose to do this, and then I’ll let you know if I need to stop.)

Thank you! I’m happy you approve…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle @keilah-h @theducktator @whalekeeper @stephie

Okay. It’s taken some time. I’ve put a lot of thought into this, but I’ve finally decided on what to do with my magic system.

I decided to change it up a bit.

We won’t know exactly how it works. One reason why I’ve decided on this is because of the narrator. He, being someone who…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

I kind of want to watch Gravity Falls, and I don’t know why because usually this type of cartoon turns me off. However, I don’t have a streaming service that has it so I’ve never gotten around to it. Also, none of my siblings are interested. Maybe one day…

@ellette-giselle

Think I like Veil of Night better than Let the Be Light. I find Joseph more relatable than Aaron. I’ll go into more detail about this when I give you the feedback. I do have to go now and get ready for school.

@ellette-giselle

I really can’t believe that you take the time to reread the whole book! Thank you so much!

I find it helps me to remember things and notice smaller details I have otherwise missed. Also, I’m sitting around on the train with nothing to do anyway on my way to school, so why not?

@ellette-giselle

Yes.

I finished rereading your book yesterday. I will try to get feedback to you soon.
