@koryn-koch Major. I don’t even know why I’ve been following this thread. XD

Yes. I’m nearly finished reading the first book. My dad was asking about it this morning, like what the ship’s thrusters were, and I’m like “Well, we know as much as the MC, and he was kidnapped, so they’re not telling him. ” Dad said that was how Lewis got away with not explaining it. 😉
Possibly. 😛

XD Yep, this was 5 months ago. And Easter ain’t just an “American” holiday. 😉

@the-real-kapeefer They certainly are strange, but they also happen to be the bestistest place on the interwebz! 😀 😉

@the-real-kapeefer Welcome to the forums, Daniel! I watch almost all you new uploads, and they always guarantee a laugh, and possibly some helpful advice. 😉 Anyway, I hope you enjoy your time here. Everyone’s super fun and helpful. 😀

Yes, read them! Great Christian fantasy, and my absolute favourite (so far) is Samara’s Peril.Consider me cryptically warned! I really hate stopping books in the middle of reading. I’ve only done that with 3 – We Didn’t Mean to Go to Sea, because it was painfully boring! The first book in the Zion Chronicles, because it had…[Read more]

Louise Fowler replied to the topic Smooth/Effective Dialogue in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 6 months ago
First things that come to mind:
If a conversation is only between two characters, you don’t have to have a tagline every time. For example:
“I love this soup,” said Bill.
“Thanks,” Karen replied. “It was my mother’s recipe.”
“Did you have this a lot growing up?”
“Yes, we did.”
Since it’s only the two characters, you can easily follow the…[Read more] -

Whoops, sorry I didn’t reply to this sooner! XD
I have not read anything by Brandon Sanderson. 😛 I haven’t read too many modern fantasy books (if by that you mean books written quite recently). The Ilyon Chronicles is one of the few I have, and I loved that!
At the moment I’m reading C. S. Lewis’ Cosmic Trilogy (only about halfway through the…[Read more]

Louise Fowler replied to the topic What Is Your Favourite Tool To Use As A Writer? in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 7 months ago
@emily-d Let’s see. fantasynamegnerators.com is one of my favourite resources. I noticed a few people said their brain, and I agree, but I’m also going to add my friends’ brains. 😛 Nothing helps me more than brainstorming and picking the brain of my alpha-alpha-reader. 😀

Louise Fowler replied to the topic Alpha Readers Wanted!! in the forum Novel Critique Requests 7 years, 7 months ago
@seekjustice Wow, sounds like a great story! While I’m not interested in alpha-reading (sorry!) having already got a few other friends’ works I already alpha/beta-read for, I just wanted to let you know that I am most definitely interested in reading it. You have what sounds like a compelling protagonist, a complex villain, and a great plot. 🙂 I…[Read more]

@aislinn-mollisong I’m not big on joining forums (Kingdom Pen being the exception that prove the rule 😉 ) But my game name is Kayma Brass-Scope (or something like that).

Louise Fowler replied to the topic You know you are a writer when… in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 7 months ago
@aislinn-mollisong Yes! 😀 My brother and I have played it up to where you have to start to pay, but we haven’t gotten around to purchasing the rest yet. 🙂
@princessfoo I can relate to that one so much! 😀

@aratrea You’re right, I don’t think he does, apart from possibly being more afraid of “Uncle.”

Louise Fowler replied to the topic Master and Apprentice–Don't Turn to the Dark Side in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 7 months ago
Hmmm…
Synonyms for master in this case could be: Mentor, advisor, guide, counsel, teacher, trainer, sage, tutor, guru, chief, elder. Maybe, if there is a lot of formality, you could come up with some other title, like calling the master’s “Father” since they’re teaching them the skills, or whatever.
Synonyms for apprentice (if you’re also…[Read more]

@aratrea What about The Screwtape Letters? I haven’t actually read the book yet, but my family listened to an audio drama of it, and we really enjoyed it. It focuses on Screwtape trying to train his nephew Wormwood to be a tempter, and encouraging him to try and make his “patient” sin. But Wormwood keeps failing, no matter what advice he takes…[Read more]

So, what book are you reading at the moment?
-
Heheh…you asked at an interesting moment. I happen to be reading a book about the gut. Not my first choice of reading material, but hey, educational. It is interesting, when I can stomach the subject material. XD
A fiction book I finished a few days ago though was Mistborn, by Brandon Sanderson. Aside from a few things that really bugged me (not…[Read more]-

Totally not a problem 😀 , I just didn’t know if maybe you hadn’t gotten the notification or something and hadn’t seen it. I know that happens to me sometimes and I realize way later that the person actually replied even though I saw no notification.
I haven’t read a ton of modern fantasy books either…not the Ilyon Chronicles either. I’ll…[Read more]

Yup. ;P And that does sound pretty cool, about comparing his two different stages of style.
Ahh…I dunno. Quite possibly. 😛

@emma-flournoy So, I have finished the first book and read the first chapter of the second. So far so good, but nothing much has happened yet, except an extensive description of the PoV’s journey and his fear he was suddenly going mad, and his brief encounter with an eldil. 🙂

Zigackly!
Well, I’ll ask my parents if they’ve seen it as well. It sounds like a good movie.

Louise Fowler posted a new activity comment 7 years, 7 months ago
Sounds good! I like the stories where the character wants to do his part, but doesn’t actually want to kill anyone, or not exactly cut out for being a soldier, so they become a medic.
Is it just a movie, or is there a book?
