  • Hello @maryg3,

    It’s so nice to meet you! My name is Precious and I’m also new here. I got accepted into the forum about a week before.

    1.  I think I’ve already established my love for Aslan in the Chronicles of Narnia and I really enjoyed Oliver Twist and Dombey and Son (though Dickens is a little too verbose to be my favorite author). I also…[Read more]

    @sparksaraabbott11

    Hey,

    1. Okay this is tricky because I dont keep track very well. But I would say

    • Bunny by Mona Awad- a weird book I wasn’t sure if I liked very much
    • Emma by Jane Austen(I read these in May for an English project)
    • Mansfield Park by Jane Austen (” “)
    • Steelheart by Brandon Sanderson (The Reckoners series)

    2. I remember…[Read more]

    Hey @anatra23

    It’s nice to meet you too! That’s great. I’d love if you could offer me some reading suggestions

    1. I’ve heard of the Marvel Cinematic universe but unfortunately I’ve never watched any of the movies (I know).

    2. Sure. My WIP is mostly about a boarding school in an alternate history setting. There are two students who are competing…[Read more]

    @joy-caroline,

    1. I’ve heard about the site once in a while but I didn’t know what it was about. I’ll definitely look into it. Flash fiction is such an interesting medium and I’m excited to read an alternative history twist.

    2. *Gasps* How could you not have read Jane Eyre? (I’m kidding) Sparknotes is really handy and fun fact I’ve read the…[Read more]

    @imrighthere1920

    Thanks. I really am. And I really admire the mission behind your website. The illustrations are so cute. I wish I had comics like that when I was a kid 🙂

    @mkfairygirl,

    1. My favorite book would have to be Jane Eyre by Jane Austen. It’s problematic on so many ways but I just love a gothic romance. But I read in a wide variety of genres with fantasy and science fiction being my new favorites. As to my favorite movie that’s too hard to choose. I watch a lot of Nigerian Christian movies. And my…[Read more]

    @gracie-j

    Thanks. I’m so excited to be here. As to pineapples on pizza? Never tried it but definitely no.

    @morgan

    Hey,

    1. No pets. If I could have a dog though it would be a siberian husky. They’re so beautiful and fluffy.

    2. Favorite animal would be lions. What I want to be so bad is like Lucy and get a ride on Aslan

    3. Reading I guess. And convincing myself that randomly scouting for interesting articles on Pinterest is NOT procrastination. Its…[Read more]

  • Hello everyone! I’m currently in the researching stage of my sci-fi/alternate history novel. It’s tentative title is The Unchosen Ones and I plan for this to be a series by God’s grace. But for now while I’m researching for my novel I’ll also be writing mostly contemporary short fiction. So I’ll be looking for critiques from you guys! So the…[Read more]

    @ariel-f

    Hi Ariel,

    1. I’ve been writing for a pretty long time, though I’ve just started to get consistent with it. My notes app is filled with tons of uncompleted stories because if I didn’t release them my head would explode. I’ve been bullet journaling almost daily for about 3 years now.

    2. My favorite flavour would be vanilla. And then…[Read more]

    @elfwing

    I guess that means we’re twinsies because it’s also my first attempt!

    1. No I haven’t gotten to Lord of the Rings yet. Does that make me an outcast? Cause I feel as if it’s something I need to be in the right headspace to enjoy.

    2. My favorite animal would be a lion. They are so beautiful and majestic. When I was little I had dreams of…[Read more]

    @nova21

    I’m relatively new to science fiction writing but I’m really getting into the genre. Your WIP sounds great and mine is really similair on a basic level.

    1. My main characters (It’s going to be a multi POV novel) are minorities at an elite academy in an alternate reality. I’m really excited to start exploring their cultures and histories.…[Read more]

    Hi @daisy-torres,

    I got through the first two chapters of your book with my tokens and I thought it was great. The prologue was interesting and mysterious and I had a great time getting to know Ulysses. He seems really likeable and I sympathize with his story. Could you give me a brief summary please. What country are they supposed to be in?…[Read more]

    Hi Joy,

    Thanks, you’re so kind!

    1. Alternate history is when you change up a historical event and explore how subsequent events would change as a result of this. For example on a minor scale if Joseph Priestley didn’t try to infuse water with carbon dioxide we wouldnt have soda. And then you would explore what our world would possibly look like…[Read more]
