      That sounds really interesting! Something I would check out of the library. I love the Rouge One idea honestly. It doesn’t sound cliché at all. I also love all the internal conflict being presented in such a short synopsis. It attaches me to the story.

      Faith does bring up a lot of good points, however. Why would a rebel group want to help her? Or why not? Wouldn’t Torrent have to through extensive training to survive a day as a rebel? That would mean you’d have to take some time in the story to be building her relationship with the rebels.

      It has loads of potential though!

        The plot itself is still being developed but this should give you an idea of the story concept:

        Your name is special. It is who you are, giving you identity and individuality. It also has a meaning. It was often said that children live up to the meaning of their name. But what if it went beyond that? What if your name was the source of a power, deep within you?

        Lupa: name meaning ‘she-wolf’, with the ability to shapeshift into a wolf.

        Azreil: name meaning ‘shadowsinger’, with the ability to bend shadows and absorb them to generate the healing of wounds.

        Tara: name meaning ‘star’, one of the few that can read the prophecies in the night sky.

        Kronos: the god of time, with the ability to warp the fabric of time.

        Ophir: When everything you touch turns to gold…

        gold…

        gold…

        gold…

          My weakness is that it takes me a long time to become confident in a project I’m working on which leads to me having a hard time being consistent since I lose motivation. I’m learning to overcome it though.

          My strength…I’d say I have a lot of originality. My imagination drags up some very unique ideas and I just want to write them all down. My most recent project in particular has been noted on a lot for being very unique. :p

            I would totally read the first one. That sounds really interesting!

            Wow, #2 sounds complicated! But that’s something I would also definitely read!

                I filled it out! That’s a good idea for when you can’t decide on a title.

                        Course to Earth‘s opening prologue lines.

                        The reports kept coming. Day after day as the impending danger drew closer, threatening to crush us all. But we had no means of escape, no way to flee the oncoming onslaught.

                            I’d love to read the second one! It looks very interesting. I’ve actually never beta read before, so forgive me if I do something silly. 😅

                              I am an ENXP. The X is because I’m borderline F and T. I heard that most writers are introverts, but I’m eager to see what we find here.
