@gracie-j Too many characters who are the villain of their own story… :facepalm: Uh… Rainan would rather write his own story.

@nova21 Camreigh would choose to eat his favorite food for a year, since time is different for him.

@gracie-j Hmm…not sure what that quite means…probably with us. Because most of my characters hate being in the…[Read more]

@nova21 Seeing as how Ryoga hates being immortal, he’d rather sacrifice himself for a loved one, if he had any.

Would your character rather swing on the highest swing in the world or be at the bottom of the lowest well in the world? (Both places are pretty pleasant, actually)

@gracie-j I’ll be around probably working on three (make that four) writing projects and also some music!

@gracie-j Thanks for the recommendation! (I do have a Goodreads, if you ever wonder…not an author one though.)

@kathleenramm Most of my favorites are from all different people, but Naoki Urasawa has been by far one of my most favorite authors. Everything he creates is just an absolute masterpiece… (Highly recommended for older people,…[Read more]

This message can never be spoken too much! Thank you for this sharing this and for opening up the opportunity to speak more about this. 🙂 It’s an amazing reminder for Christians and non-Christians alike.

Today I read the first couple chapters of Spinning Siver by Niomi Novik. It’s an adult fantasy book that I’m pretty sure is a retelling of Rumpelstiltskin.

So far I’m enjoying it! The atmosphere is really nice, and every time I read it it’s like I’m being transported into a magical winter forest.  Although I’m only a couple of chapters in, I can…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12 I’ve gotten into writing crime recently, so they aren’t really actual mysteries, per se, as I reveal who the culprit is as one of the main characters. However, I think that this bit sounds really interesting! I think you should develop it!

Also, I’ve heard that for mysteries it’s good to have the solution first and then sprinkle…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12 Thanks for sharing this! I have no clue what denomination I am, but I 100% agree with this. Thanks for being so outspoken!

@kathleenramm Great idea! Though be warned; my list will probably mostly consist of manga, with a classic book once in a while. Hopefully this might spark up my love for reading again, haha…

@gracie-j Ah, yes. I feel you. I may live up North, but being a second-gen immigrant, I’ve never really felt that strongly about the civil war. However, I…[Read more]

Right on! *thumbs up*

This is cool! 😀

@annika-c

I just got the book from the library! Looking forward to reading it.

@nova21 I really out of touch with poetry right now, so I can’t really say much, but I liked it a lot!

@nova21

Oof, yes. XD I know those characters far too well.  Have you ever read a book with a character that you had a sneaking suspicion was the author’s favorite character? I feel like the try-hard comic relief characters are often those characters, but since the author likes the character so much they’re oblivious to it. XD Not sure if you’ve c…[Read more]

@gracie-j I thought it was super sad ahh. Every time I flipped the page it just got worse and worse…but it was written really well and I enjoyed it a lot.

Merry Christmas to you as well!

@gracie-j I just wanted to let you know I finally finished Gone With the Wind.

I-I can’t think right now. I’ll sort my thoughts out tomorrow ahhh.

@nova21

I think what you mentioned right there is the epitome of writing. Most likely all writers at one point or another write about situations we have no experience ever doing but write about it as if we did it just that morning. XD And it’s totally prevalent when writing banter between two characters wholly different from you. Their…[Read more]
