Ayy!! Those look so good!! 😃🤩😃 I really love that last one a lot!!

Cowboy cat looks great!! The paw on his hat is really good.

@rae

ahhh!!! I LOVE the cat-cowboy-character!!!
he looks like a fun one and I can already picture the personality should you ever use him as a character in a book!!

the envelope is GORGEOUS!!! WOW!! Lucky Andrew!!!!! You must not be using the flimsy envelopes I use because they would fall apart if I painted them. That is paint…. Right?? Or is t…[Read more]

@rae wow, those look amazing!!!

The stripes and slitted eye on the cat cowboy are making me think “oh, a Changeling” lol

(even though he’d most likely be an Ailurid cause y’know, cat. Although being a hybrid isn’t out of the question.)

And the envelope is so cool!! I actually like the dragon.

@rae

yes, I’ll be praying for him!

@theducktator

praying.

also, to everyone, I’ve tried subscribing to this topic but it’s rare I get notifications. Just know that I try to check this when it comes to mind. I’m gonna try unsubscribing and subscribing again to see if that helps.

Tagging as many people as I can think of.

Thank you! Mom and I went to Ohio to visit this week. Grandma is still in the hospital, but she’s eating solid food now and the hope is that she will be moved to a rehab center this week. Her movement is limited, but she was able to sit in a chair and she is now off of oxygen. We’re…[Read more]

Birthdays can be tough. My twin and I had such an elaborate coffee themed idea for our 16th. Then that birthday rolled around and it no longer fit. Life had changed. We were stuck between choices, not wanting a huge party, but not wanting to let another milestone slip by. We ended up doing a small Jane Austen themed tea party with some…[Read more]

@rae I’m interested in how it turns out too!

@rae

Well first off, Happy Early Birthday!!!

Second, here are two thoughts. 1.) you don’t have to make it an all day thing, you know. Often times with my family on a kid’s birthday it’s something simple. Such as, “Hey, ***** wants to go for a bike ride for his birthday. We’ll be at the trail head at 3:00 and we’ll bike until 5:00, then…[Read more]

@rae

My mom suggested maybe board games? That’s kind of our go-to for hangouts. You could always do a game night with them and go until 10 or so (or sleepover, if you wanted. A movie would work great with that too.) I guess it really depends on if you’re able to host people over at your house or not. Board games can be a great way to warm up to…[Read more]

@rae

Aww, girl. <3 I think you need a pick-me-up.

Insecurities and attachment issues don’t mean you aren’t an amazing choice for a friend. Sometimes I question whether I am friends with somebody too, even if I’ve known them forever. All of us go through those phases. Don’t feel ashamed, just be aware of yourself.

Now, I can’t give you much advi…[Read more]

@rae

It also sounds like some kind of reddit post.

lol

For some reason I thought you were the same age as me, or within a year at least.

I don’t have much advice though, sorry. All of my birthday parties these days are me getting my writer friends to come over and we joke around about our stories and do some painting. My family is big…[Read more]

@rae all righty then!

@rae @the_lost-journal @highscribeofaetherium @keilah-h

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]

A few tags

@rae

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. 😅
