Daisy Torres replied to the topic What's a book that hasn't aged well for you? in the forum Topic of the Week 3 years ago
Tbh, the Lunar Chronicles.
I know, I know, I’m asking for the wrath of a huge fandom by saying this, but it’s true XD I used to really like the series, but upon looking back, it really wasn’t that great. Don’t get me wrong, the settings were creative and amazing, and I lovedddd the idea of a sci-fi fairytale retelling, but I think the only reason…[Read more]

@trahia-the-minstrel you mean what I mainly write?? I have been making it for the reason C. S. Lewis once said; The world does not need more Christian literature. What the world needs is more Christians writing good literature.” if I can make a good book to be enjoyed by all while keeping the values of the Scriptures enough to be recognized, I am…[Read more]

Elfwing replied to the topic What's an unexpected benefit you got from writing? in the forum Topic of the Week 3 years ago
@kathleenramm I would say it has done similar things for me.
I can read people well and figure them out pretty quick, or so I’m told. I evaluate and if someone asked me to describe I can and I’m usually correct. The problem with that, is, among other things, that if I’m not careful I can get cocky, and start thinking I see things that aren’t…[Read more]

thank you for the kind words, Kathleen! John 14 is a wonderful idea. it’s hard to always remember that God is there, but what you said is so true. now that i think about it, songs are the main things that come on and remind me of the truth. “water under the bridge” is what my mom likes to say, when life is hard sometimes. thank…[Read more]

Gotcha. I feel you… I tend to skim through books now rather than read them… Unless, of course, it’s for school. 😉 lol I’ve read all of the GE books, except The Archer’s Cup. I only skimmed through that one. 🙂
Ooo, I haven’t read that in a long time. I’ll have to take a look at that…[Read more]

Ah, I am very late to the conversation…*facepalm*
Your premise sounds amazing, Keilah! I think that either way you write it could be interesting, but them saying “no” could add a lot to the story. Faith has a lot of good points, but I love your story idea! Wishing you the best with this story! 🙂

Hello,
im sorry that you’re going through so much stress.
1. It’s definitely okay to be worried and stressed especially after recovering from COVID. Make sure to do things that prioritize your mental and physical health above all else.
2. First of all don’t feel bad that you’re not writing right now. You seem to be juggling a lot of stuff…[Read more]

@kathleenramm hahaha just remembered that XD very true.
When it changed for me was when I really started reading on mythology and history, then seeing how different the cultures are and the myths and legends of each, so it was very jarring to have it all thrown in a world at the same time. I love the humor of his stories and he had an amazing…[Read more]
