*examining you closely through spectacles* Hmm…homeschooled. C.S. Lewis fan. Has a ton of siblings. *shrugs* I suppose we could put up with you. *gives you worlds biggest hug*
Hi!
I have learned so much from KP and I hope you have as much fun here as I have! Welcome! 🙂 😉 🙂

@daeus, Crime and Punishment is very good. I am currently a third of the way through, and the way Dostoyevsky led up to the murder is amazing, it really gets you inside Raskolnikov’s head.

@r-j-wordsmith Crime and Punishment is better. *runs off before Josiah can retaliate*

Excellent cloak Kate Flournoy *puts it on with a swirl and a flourish* I’m sure it will come in handy. Josiah DeGraaf, I have never read Brothers Karamazov, but I have it on my list of to-reads. Shaina, I completely understand putting Narnia first, and first got the idea for cameos when I saw Disney characters doing the same thing in different movies.

@kate-flournoy Ah; good question. Yes, I’m just trying to exclude the characteristic moment, mash moments, midpoint, and resolution scenes. Any other scene is fine!

@Aratrea I have a question… you said not to use ‘main thematic scenes’ for the homework. How broadly are you defining that? Cuz I just combed through my story looking for a thematically ‘un-main’ scene and I can’t really find one. I mean, there are some more important than others, but they all have the theme in them some way or other, even if…[Read more]

@r-j-wordsmith Welcome to the site–glad you’ve found us! I have seven younger siblings and was likewise homeschooled so it sounds like we have a similar background. 😉 And excellent choice with Count of Monte Cristo there. My favorite book is probably a tie between that and Brothers Karamazov.

@R-J-Wordsmith first off, I love your tag. And yes! The Screwtape Letters are awesome. As are TCoMC, and Narnia, and homeschooling, and tons of siblings, and more stories than you know what to do with… *grins* Welcome to KP. *hands you superhero cloak* You may need this around here; we’re a bit prone to saving the world. 😉

Thanks for the welcome Daeus, nice choice with CoMC. Ethryndal, my favorite Narnia characters are Lucy and Edmund. If I had to say just one, it would be Lucy.

@Ethryndal ooh, I like it. Thanks. 🙂

@Hope niiiice. And technically your prompt can have anything at all in it so long as it includes the topic… so a magical cell phone that can turn into a sword isn’t too far fetched, if you wanna go that route. 😀

@Daeus Thank you for giving meaning to my writers’ block. XD May happiness and prosperity follow you all the rest of your life.

@Kate-Flournoy
You find a cell phone in the dumpster that lets you communicate with the people you call through thoughts, not words.

Welcome, @R-J-Wordsmith, fellow Narnian and homeschooler! I too love classics, though I am afraid to say I’ve never read CoMC (sorry, @Daeus 😀 ) Who’s your favorite Narnia character?

Oh, and that’s so neat, your character cameos. I love when authors do that. 🙂
