@ellette-giselle Do you really kill off that many characters? XD

I would’ve gone for the photo. Nothing like a good photo to hold hostage. 😉

I guess my brain just doesn’t work like that. How could that be helpful?

Bro, I was literally like smashing the submit button and it took forever for that response to post 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣

@savannah_grace2009

My story is not a lighthearted, hopeful story, at least in the beginning. Right now it’s supposed to be “depressing” and dark. Honestly, to add sprinkles of hope in wouldn’t work for what’s going to happen in the next few chapters. Because right now, none of my characters know God, and so without God there is no hope. I want to…

I also hope I didn’t come across as rude or brushing you off…I really do appreciate your thoughts because that means I need to work on foreshadowing! And explaining my book to others helps me flesh out my thoughts a little more! Thank you so much! <3

Gradually, though, the cough turned into a hoarse, uncontrolled laugh. A moment later he sat up, a half-grin on his face, and his pupil dilated like a cat’s in the dark.

My heartbeat actually spiked when I read that

@esther-c

Ok, so the biggest thing I noticed was the lack of hope throughout the story. The characters seemed to think about death a lot and were put through a lot of physical pain. There’s nothing inherently wrong with that, but it needs to be balanced out with hope. When I got to read those Lilitu/Sef memories from when they were little, that w…

@ellette-giselle

That makes sense! Jsyk, you don’t have to participate in everything, but they do offer a lot of different challenges and things for people who can do them. I didn’t even make my goal last time (embarrassingly so xD) because of school and homework. But I still had a ton of fun! It’s okay if you can’t do it, though. I underst…[Read more]

Yay!! The camp opens this Wednesday, but it doesn’t officially start until March 1.

I did it last year for the first time in November and liked it a lot. Everyone sets a goal for the month, and spends the rest of the months cheering each other on, sharing excerpts from their WIPs, and doing challenges. Esther and I should be in the Chickadee tent this year, so if you’re i…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Technically I borrowed them from King’s Daughters Writing Camp. But yes xD

By the way, that’s starting soon. You should sign up for it! It’s like CWW but for a whole month. And only for girls. @esther-c and I should be doing it.

@ellette-giselle

Ahhh. Forgot about the double-rethrow rule. XD

This is the cake:

How . . . what . . . where did you get all those snowballs? XD

@anyone who cares

it’s my birthday today!!!

My mom made me a cheesecake and I made a lizard design on it with chocolate! I don’t have the picture yet though.

@ellette-giselle

HYBRIDLORE!! I’ve missed you!!! (even though we’ve still be talking while I was gone. XD)

XD Same here, haha!

@ellette-giselle

YAYYY!!! This section looks good! I’m interested to see what will happen after they leave the city. Poor Roland. But Julian has a good reaction to him.

So glad you’re back!!

@rae

a picture from a couple years back of him and Nar having a flour fight (he lost)

Aww cute <3

Hopefully Dante isn’t too upset.

Hehe, no, upset isn’t quite the right word. My boy’s got issues.

Dante

Dante slumped to the ground, holding his throat and coughing. He sat there a while in the dimly lit hall, shoulders shaking as he tried to reg…[Read more]

@whalekeeper Hey, I noticed a thing. Did you change Seb’s last name?

My favorite type of magic is finding something that’s already true of the world and making it literal

@loopylin

I like messing with the idea of a world where almost everything you interact with is alive and has its own character. It’s fun.

Huh, never thought of that as a magic thing before. That’s a new idea for me.
