That sounds like a lot of fun! It’s a theme both Middle Grade and YA could need, so you can absolutely write it for both. I’m technically a young adult and I like animal stories.
And yes, Yigal was military. There’s a lot of flower/name symbolism in the story… did you catch it?
In the words of Calvin, that was STUPENDOUS.…[Read more]

Awesome. I like their tails in the wind.
Yeah, I had thought of a general short story to do, but it didn’t happen. Maybe I’ll stick it here later, maybe I’ll just let it grow moss in the back of my mind until it ends up in some WIP quite by accident.

Ah, I understand. I mostly wrote MG now, but there was a time I stepped back, looked at my writing, and was just like “Teens won’t read whatever this is, but is sure can’t be for kids.”
But then learned a few things and grew a little more, and you know what? It’s okay. Kids live in a dark world too. It’s a matter of perspective. Their…[Read more]

Ahhh! Animal fantasy! And, as I presume although you could definitely be going for older groups but, are you writing middle-grade?

Oh I know. I wish there were more of y’all guys on here so I could properly interrogate y’all and try to understand how you think.
Like, how?!

I’m so glad you liked it!
Yeah, it’s standalone right now, but who knows? 😉 I haven’t gotten to work seriously in much of my WIPs, so they’re more like Works Waiting For Progress or something like that.
A sub-series is a good idea! I shall await your return. =D And maybe get some of my homework done. XD

My stories? Yes. This short story is a stand alone, but I have three WIPs. Currently, my goal is to finish a novela by Easter. It’s one I haven’t shared much about, but is pretty close to my heart. Plus it’s a better springboard than a 3 volume epic or a 5 book series. XD
You?

Yay! Like I said, it’s such an intricately pieced world.
Yeah, most of mine are in my head too.

Oh, I liked your story. The worldbuilding and premise was so unique! And the frame story layout was a good touch. Does it belong to a larger story?

Very true. It’s so much fun. XD I would add that we hope if we can connect to a reader’s heart, we can impact them in the long run.

Aw, thanks! (Why is it so fulfilling to hear your writing made someone cry? XD)

Yep. Poor kiddos. Who knows, she may decide to write a story based on that “wild dream” and accidentally keep his memory (the things an author thinks).
At least they didn’t get sacrificed.

I forgot to do this. I’ll try to join in another time though.
O.O Wowzers. I knew he would die, but I hoped she’d remember him.
EEEEEE. You know what I think of this story. =D
