@gracie-j I love the vibes from it! (Currently my sister is tearing it apart so I could use some encouragement…lol 🥲)

@mineralizedwritings Wow! You’re good at drawing! And your WIP sounds quite interesting, though I don’t think I want to live in that world, haha. I prefer giving critiques in Google Docs, so if you ever send it in that format, I’d be glad to look at it!

To be honest, I feel like most of my “slice-of-life” plots are full of just drama and sadness,…[Read more]

@esther-c Whoa, I love that aesthetic! The life of Jonah would be really cool to see, since it’s so vague what is given in the Bible! I’d love to see someone’s interpretation of it.

I’m not really one to write Biblical fiction, but the only one I’ve ever really wanted to write was the story of David and Absalom. Every time I read it in the Bible,…[Read more]

@gracie-j le gasp

Sheeeee that looks insane! I feel like now I have to incorporate roses and a pendant into the story 😮

@mineralizedwritings Heya! Nice to meet you! Did you draw your profile picture? It looks very cute. I’d also love to hear more about your WIP at some point; I don’t meet many dystopian writers.

I have been writing for maybe around seven years? I write a lot of different things, usually fantasy, but also crime, slice-of-life, sometimes sci-fi… I…[Read more]

@sarafini Nice! I’ll most likely be working on my current crime novel, because right now I only have like 2k words and I really need to jumpstart it (or at least get more of it done than I have now if I wanna finish it on time) and probably some short stories here or there. How many books is your series going to be?

@mineralizedwritings Thank you! Yeah, it’s a pretty intense creative writing class at my school, so I’m a little nervous (because of time management), but I’m also really excited to get started.

@mineralizedwritings I finished my last main work around December, so I’ve started another WIP, which I’m also going to be writing for a creative writing class I’m having this semester, so hopefully I’ll finish it before summer hits!

@gracie-j 👉👈Can-can I request a mock cover – from yours truly? You know which novel I want one for…right?

@sarafini I signed up, but idk how much time I’ll have since that’s when my semester starts, but I’ll try! What are you going to work on?

@felicity

I’ve self-published a standalone short story, two short story collections, and a novel. I prefer self-publishing, personally, for the freedom it provides and for the opportunity to work with my own choice of collaborators (editors, artists, etc.), but I would like to try traditional publishing down the road as well for the sake of…[Read more]

Aw, I’m so happy that KP helped gave you what you were looking for! It’s awesome to have you as a part of the community. 🙂

As for the genre, I’m thinking more slice-of-life modern-day with some fantasy, mystery, and maybe even a bit of paranormal/horror elements added in the mix as well.

I want it to feel both grounded and heartfelt…[Read more]

@starofthenorth

Thanks for letting me know! The site should be up and working now. 🙂

@felicity My pleasure!

I can’t figure out her tag. That’s frustrating. I’ll have to look into that.

But here’s a direct link to my post on her blog, as well, so you don’t have to scroll down and find it.

Got the tag wrong. @rachel-l? @rachel?

Anyway, here’s the post she wrote for my blog.
