Hello, @aratrea!! Better late than never! I do feel welcome! Please tell your brother that he’s nuts, but also pretty cool. And I said hi. 😉
Hi, @emma-flournoy! Well, fall has FINALLLLYYYY arrived in Texas! It’s so cool, and wonderful! And sunny! I like to call it, “Roll-Down-The-Car-Window-And-Pant-Like-A-Dog season.” XD Of course, it’ll…[Read more]

It kinda disconnects me in a way. Even in third person narratives, you can reach this point where you feel like stuff in the story is happening right now. But dairy entries interrupt that for me. They serve as a constant reminder that the action I am reading about has happened already which is a bit distancing. Maybe it’s just me.
Nope. I’m w…[Read more]

I love Audiomachine music. @emily TREE OF LIFE!!! *dies* So beautiful!
Although I think one song that I really think is inspiring is by Enya, The River Sings. I love that one…very hero-returns-from-journey-ish.
For my upcoming WIP, I find that Stained Glass by Jon Guerra is perfect. It’s basically for his character arc.

Hiya, @epicaddie2! My favorite character in the Wingfeather Saga is Janner. I like Kalmar and Artham a lot, too. Ikr, the last book! I cried both times I read it. I totally agree, Peterson is awesome. Have you heard his music. He writes really good music, too, and his voice is awesome.

@epicaddie2 I wish I had profound, mind-blowingly wise advice, but… well this is as close as I’m gonna get. 😉 I’ve been knee-deep in worldbuilding for a while, and something that I’ve found helps me is to ask “why?” about things. For example, I decided that, as a rule, dwarves are cheery folk. WHY?? I decided it was because they have very…[Read more]

@ingridrd I love listening to soundtracks – they often remind me of my daydreamed stories. It’s awesome. Have you heard the song “Shells” from the Finding Dory movie. It’s the song that’s playing when Dory (SPOILER ALERT!!!) reunites with her parents. When I hear that song, I also think of reunion or reconciliation.
@emily So yeah I would highly…[Read more]

@dekreel I can’t pick a favorite creature. Although, the description for the Wexter is one of my favorites. I do not want to wake up in a donkey costume declaring my undying love to a barn door. 😛 You have signed copies of ALL THE BOOKS!!?? *promptly faints* *revives* Wait, you live in TX? Wow, we have a lot of Texan KeePers!

@catwing Beast?? Hmmm… A ghastly and powerful monster; a henchman, serving the despicable Shaavra! Or at least that’s what’s on the profile photo. 🙂
I don’t have a specific genre I like to write in. I’m writing a Sci-fi/Fantasy novella though!

One of these days I want to write something similar to Catcher in the Rye where the character goes on some kind of adventure (can be physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, all of the above, etc.), And we get to see what the character thinks on the way. But I don’t want it to just be like a spin-off of the Catcher in the Rye. Do you have any…[Read more]
