We think one might fit: Captain Fry. He’s stocky and grumpy, but eloquent when nobody expects it. And he’s suspicious of the Longtreaders at first, which could translate into Gimli’s aversion of elves. His undying loyalty to them once that’s overcome fits well too!

Unfortunately, everyone in my family has a different mental image of…[Read more]

Ugh. If any of y’all decide to write a “good twin/evil twin” trope (and I don’t care if it is well done or not at this pount) you will be getting a letter from me. I’ve been asked that stupid question a few too many times, as well as it’s frustrating cousin “who’s the mean/nice one?”. If one of y’all pick it up, prepare for Koshka to be severely…[Read more]

Can’t say I loved the Anne of the Island triangle, but I definitely liked it better than what I see in modern stuff.

Evangelistic dating is dating/becoming romantically attached to a lost person with the hope that the relationship will lead them to God. Obviously, not a good udea to go into a relationship like that. It’s not h…[Read more]

Yeah, that might help. And it might not. I personally haven’t gotten tags in months, but I often hop on when I have a free moment and lurk patrol around.

It’s been a very chatty place recently. As evidenced by the fact that newer KeePers are bumbling about in the guise of Eccentric Mentors and Chosen Ones.

@r-m-archer

Fabulous! That helps a lot. Thank you for imparting your wisdom. 🙂

I’ll probably look into getting it later this month.

Bwahaha! XD You did a great job capturing his personality in the aesthetic.

I saw the shofar/horn and satchel with scrolls and wondered if he served as a messenger, a fitting occupation for a wanderer. On a flip side, if the scrolls were scripture, I thought he might be connected to your world’s True Religion. Maybe friends with a…[Read more]

@r-m-archer

Oh, that’s a great article! Thank you for sharing. It gave me several ideas. (As did your article on false religions, which I read right after that one.)

Also, it’s so good to see you around here again!

@whalekeeper

Well, everyone made theirs much less complicated than what I was thinking, so I’m glad I waited. lol. I think I basically agree with what the others have said. I do like a first person narrative, if it’s well done and really used to contribute to the texture of the story.

I also think that not every style that’s technically “wordy”…[Read more]

Still haven’t got proof that she’s alive.

@ellette-giselle @whalekeeper

Y’all are terrible. 🤣

• He’s a rolling stone/without roots/drifter.
• He’s curious about things.
• He likes to work with wood/whittle.
• He’s a messenger, or somehow connected to the clerical/Levitical circle.
• He’s either a strategist, or stuck in a tight situation.
• Despite his youth and friendly demeanor, he can fight like a cat.
• He’s more of the…

Nar: “Of course. You can never spend any amount of time in my profession without finding someone you couldn’t help.”

@koshka

You alive?

Wordy writing styles.

As Andrew can testify, more than once I have criticized books for wordy writing styles.

I’m not saying writers should state things as brief as possible, but writers shouldn’t take a paragraph and fill it with needless words. It bogs down the reader. There’s a balance between adding needless words and being too brief.

I think I did this with Silvanis…But I did punch him last night for no good reason so he might be pretty hostile so I’ll do…Nar I guess just cuz I was looking at an old drawing of her today

1. What is your full name?

“Narray Mae Nayhelm, but everyone usually calls me simply Nar.”

2. What is the most important thing the average person should…

@whalekeeper

This is a great topic! I’ll have to think about it though.

By the by, I don’t see duplicate posts. 🙂

I’ve been commenting on the proton one. I hope you’re getting those……
