@rae all righty then!

Yeah, it is pretty cool!! Almost nobody I talk to knows what it is, so I’m always explaining. XD Thank you for the names, by the way, Ruth and Kefa!

So how did they accidentally invent it?

Leon was a Russian inventor who was actually trying to invent devices for wartime. The instrument was…[Read more]

awesome!

Tag me when you do!

@rae

I know!! That quote is just AMAZING!!! I would love to see more of him!

Yes, it was a little bit flat in places, and maybe it could use some reworking, but honestly I think 1st person would spoil it. I liked all the scenes you had and the way you laid it out, even if it could use a teeny bit of work. That’s what I’m trying to say.…[Read more]

@rae

Sorry! I just saw this.

Hmmm…. I don’t like first person naritives… so that already makes me biased, but I honestly really liked that chapter the way it is. Like, a LOT. I don’t want you to touch it. If it’s the chapter I’m thinking of (the end one) it was one of my very favorites.

You can try the first person, but I say leave…[Read more]

@rae

I’m impressed that you managed that. I could maybe do eight hours, but not 12.

@rae

You’re not alone when it comes to getting easily distracted.

Should I write Farewell in first person?

Hmmm, can’t say. It seemed straightforward enough in third person from what I remember.

I finished all the short stories, but I didn’t give you feedback for all of them I’m afraid. 😅

@rae

I think his passion is what made him the best fantasy author. If Tolkien didn’t love writing, and didn’t love the story, then it wouldn’t have been a classic. It wouldn’t have been published at all.

That’s exactly what I’m saying. He wrote great stories because he loved writing so much, not because his ability was somehow greater than other writers.

@rae

I’m one of those perfectionists who wants to throw their stuff in the trash everytime they read it just cuz it isn’t as good as Lord of the Rings

I know you’re joking, but has nobody thought about the fact that it must’ve either taken Tolkien like 5 drafts to get it perfect, or he was just the exception to the rule and had everything str…[Read more]

@rae

How’s the editing going so far? I bet you’re super tired by now. XD

@rae

since most publishing companies fail within five years

Ouch.

Hahahahaha! Totally joking.

Well that’s really great. I’ve gone through the nightmare, and while horrible, at least it helped me know which information I wanted/needed readily available to be able to have WHP set up in a way that other authors would get what they…[Read more]

@rae @ellette-giselle I’m glad you guys were able to work something out!! I’ve just self-published every time I finished a book, but I have a book on writing and it talks about how to get a publisher, and I was like “wow, this is…..really complicated. Do we really need to do all this?”

@rae

You are so welcome!!! I’m so glad it’s encouraging!!!

Wait really!!!!!??? You might be going with us?!?!?!

We do some marketing on our website, but we are more limited as we don’t do any social media platforms. But we would still do all we can to market your book.

@rae

Go Rae! Go Rae! Go Rae!!!!

@rae

Yep. Poor Sniper.

ikr, poor guy.

i love how it’s just like:

the character: is a literal assassin and would know like 10 ways to kill me if I got within a mile of him. Plus my augmentations to him give him two or three more of those ways to kill me.

me: I feel so bad for you, your life is so tragic. I would give you a hug if I weren’t con…[Read more]

@rae

Gotcha.

@rae

Thanks for the update!! I’ll keep praying!

How have you been feeling?

@rae

Yeah, I wondered if it was Sniper.

lol you know me well don’t ya?

If I remember correctly, he was shot in the chest and the side of his abdomen, right?

I’m assuming you saw that image in the school roleplay lol. I think that’s right. I don’t think he was hit in the heart directly, but yeah, I assumed it punctured one of the big arteries…[Read more]

@rae

Yesssss, pictures! Those names are so cute!!!!
