aight, gimme ten minutes

@rae

That’s impressive. I’d never be able to do that.

Don’t even remember how I did it lol, I guess it just clicked in my brain.

Agreed. I remember I had a youth group thing called Olympians every Wednesday night at our old Church, and I was six when I started it. All my homeschooled friends didn’t have much trouble reading (I still strug…

@rae @the_lost-journal I think I got a little lost. Did your characters enter the maze yet?

@keilah-h XD  I have a hard enough time picking my own characters. Maybe one of your female characters?

@whalekeeper

LOL 😂 real…

@ellette-giselle

What I’m asking is, as readers, did you get anything out of this in this book at this time in this place, or did you just read it more to get over it to the next part of the story?

I agree with Keilah and Linus—I think you should leave it in, but maybe have Julian encourage the believers more by reminding them of their future hope.

@the_lost-journal Everyone I guess!!

oh yeah! Huntress and Leander would make an interesting duo.

@loopylin all righty, here we go!

any character in specific you want me to drop in, from what you’ve seen of all my guys? Could be anyone from any time or any roleplay/other forum. I remember them all.

@rae yeah. Also, i taught myself how to read, so the exeperience of someone teaching you in unfamiliar to me.

(The tutoring was more for math and general thinking skills. He calls it “brain training.” But he has a lot of books in his office on the subject of how to properly teach reading, since many school curriculums don’t quite hit the mark,…[Read more]

I vaguely remember that. This new scene is really cute; although it might be a little confusing for casual readers. As a person who knows a lot about phonemes and stuff cause of my very meticulous tutor, I get it, but I don’t know if all the letter sounds and stuff will confuse people.

@theducktator thanks!!

@keilah-h @hybridlore

Thanks! He made it there safely, and he flies back Saturday.

@linus-smallprint

What is up with KP? I haven’t gotten any notifs.

No. You’re fine to keep it in. Instead of feeling like it something I needed to get over for the next part, this felt more like setting the stage for the climax.

Okay, that makes sense.

Do you ever get your dad to look over these sermon/speeches?

My dad actually hasn’t r…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle ohhh, I understand now.

(I cringe when y’all say sermon because I’m a woman and I wrote it. But I guess Julian is a guy. 🤣)

Just cause you’re a woman doesn’t mean you can’t write impactful things.

Like yeah, the Bible specifically says that only men should be pastors cause it mirrors them being fathers and heads of hou…[Read more]

@whalekeeper lollllll yes

@theducktator oh that’s interesting, my dad is going on a plane trip tomorrow too! Not that early though.

I’ll be praying for both of them.

@theducktator

Praying!!!

@the_potato-reporter add as many characters as you can keep track of. There’s not really a limit, just don’t go too overboard.

NEXT SECTION!!!

It was late into the evening before the meeting finally broke up. Julian’s words had shaken the little church, and they were ready and open to hear more. As Leon and Julian took turns speaking to them and en…
