MineralizedWritings

@mineralizedwritings yeah Wingfeather isn’t too cohesive, but in the author’s defense I’m pretty sure it was the first series he ever wrote, and I don’t know how many drafts the story went through.

I do love some of the worldbuilding though.

@mineralizedwritings

Sure thing! Take it away, Min!

Do we have any volunteers for the next drawing challenge? I know Ducktator, you mentioned earlier you might have a character.

If not, I do have a friend, another Christian author, who attempted to make an account on…[Read more]

@keilah-h

I have returned, and THATS SO GOOD!!!!! The pose is awesome!!

@mineralizedwritings

Not a marvel fan, but that’s amazing!

@mineralizedwritings

Oh my goodness, that looks so good!!!

Psstt, @freed_and_redeemed … 👆

Ok everyone, here is my drawing of Friedrich. Sorry about the bad lighting, it’s raining here so i don’t have natural light.

@rae  @linus-smallprint @grcr @mineralizedwritings @keilah-h

Okay y’all! Here I go.

So one thing would be Friedrich is not left-handed, but I never specified that so that’s on me. His hair isn’t quite a wavy as I pictured, but otherwise he’s pretty spot on. I like the boots, though not quite the style I was thinking of either. Your shadin…[Read more]

@freed_and_redeemed @mineralizedwritings @whalekeeper Gonna have to go with your point of view here….

Think of Lord of the Rings or The Green Ember. These stories don’t have explicitly Christian themes or even mention the existence of God much, although it’s kinda implied. But they were written by authors who wished to show a deep truth–the…[Read more]

@loopylin @whalekeeper @mineralizedwritings

Yeah, I mean, I personally prefer that whoever I’m talking to would make eye contact as well, or at least try to. But as long as they’re not like, staring at the floor or clearly not even looking at me, then I’m not offended or anything.

I do believe consistently making eye contact takes practice and i…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings

girl I thought you seriously dissagreed what I said. I’m not used to you responding to discussions with such short answers and I’m used to ‘touching a nerve’ meaning like…

I’ve been stressing about it sm today LOL

I gasped out loud when you said that 😮 Oh no… I’m so sorry I came off that way! I replied quickly because I h…[Read more]

@rae @whalekeeper @mineralizedwritings I love how we can all peacefully discuss our different opinions on this💖

Y’all are the best  : )

I agree with you, Min! Writing God in a story is difficult, and it makes it even harder depending on the genre you write. I don’t think all books have to have God be explicitly stated or mentioned or even…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings

That makes sense.

I honestly kinda exist in a grey area in a way. For Guardian Angels, Nahim is already the Wondian equivalent of a Christian, but after the tragedies that struck his family and home, he’s turned his back. I don’t believe you can loose your salvation. I’m not an extreme Calvinist, but I do have calvinistic b…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings

I think I like writing things that can be dark because it’s relatable. I find that some of the Christian places I’ve known in the past aren’t willing to deal with the idea of intense hardship. I mean most of us live in a developed country, have access to food and water, and don’t have any kind of life threatening persecu…

@mineralizedwritings

Ok, That’s alright. You know I’ll always give you my honest opinion and we can’t possibly agree on everything. Thanks for being kind about it.💗

Of course! By the way, I didn’t mean to sound like I disagree with anything you said. When I said you touched nerves, I meant those thoughts felt very applicable to second-hand pain…[Read more]

@esther-c @whalekeeper @mineralizedwritings

Ok, the subject of eye contact annoys me so much. I’ve been told that I don’t need to worry about it and that avoiding eye contact is just part of who I am, but I still want to be as kind and respectful as I can towards people. But also it frustrates me that people judge each other based off of what the…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings oof 😆 that was painfully relatable. Glad he has Lesli around to help him feel better about himself lol

@mineralizedwritings

Just letting you know I read your thoughts, and some of them touched nerves, so I appreciate the time you took to write them out ❤️

@ellette-giselle

My book update is that I’m now in the formatting process of my next book!!!!! I’m hoping to have the proof copy by no later then next week!!!!! I’m pretty excited! (In case…

@mineralizedwritings

God can help us heal from such things, but it doesn’t mean he’ll spare everyone from experiencing them.

exactly!

@mineralizedwritings

Ok then. I love the dark stories best because as Christine writers we can use the darkness to highlight the truth. If you turn a light on in the day it doesn’t do as much as when you turn it on in a pitch black room. The moon is little better then a round cloud in the day, but it can light up the whole yard at night! That’s…[Read more]
