LOVE IT!!! So, so pretty!

Do the shepherd boy!!!!

@elishavet-pidyon

Lovely. *Nods vigorously*

@elishavet-pidyon

It’s beautiful! I love the almost Ireland fairytale, almost medieval Europe feel. Lovely.

(Also, I hit you with some snowballs, so you could share some more scenes from Golden Song. In case you were wondering. XP)

@ellette-giselle

Ah. Such fun. I love the kid’s reactions. XD

Leon laughed, a knowing expression on his face.

So…what is a knowing expression? Raised eyebrows? A smirk? This is such a vague description that his face won’t settle into one expression. It’s just a blur.

This is random, but I’ve noticed that your characters pray in turns. Is…[Read more]

*Cackles* *Grins*

I love it. Quincy seems good at activating ProtectMode in people. I need to tie that into the book.

Alrighty then.

Leo

The row of hedges ended in another lane. Leo turned up it for a few feet before darting around a large glass greenhouse with a gasped out prayer. He sent a glance over his shoulder.

@linus-smallprint

Yeah, it is a rough life. I feel like a lot of people will read about Leon and Julian and be like, “oh cool, the messenger missionaries on the run from soldiers” and not really think about what that would be like for NINE YEARS.

I chuckled at this.

so did I. lol.

Ew. Yeah, eat the bread instead.

You’ve never licked…[Read more]

@koshka

Oh my goodness. I can’t believe you just handed a kid to Rory. *silently dies* this is going to be great!

He needs something to fight for beyond his own survival.

Ummm….. whatever you would rather. i don’t care. Leo is leading which means you’re picking.

Rory

There coming. there’s no escape. there never is! Rory couldn’t…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

I don’t know. Make it look like I was so depressed I lost that person close to me that I became focused on the fighting ring and paid my debt with my life. But how to do that exactly, I’m not sure.

@ellette-giselle

Leon nodded. “I am tired of it. You know, there’s not much more I could wish for then a home of my own. A place to settle and say, ‘this home is mine, this house is mine, these fields are mine, this family is mine.’” Leon paused, and when he spoke again his voice had dropped to a lower, almost sad tone. “With the way things are…

@ellette-giselle

Gotcha. We’re either going to an apartment flat, or their ship the Mantis, you pick.

Silvia

Number sequences flashed across her tablet. She stifled a groan. They had a tail.

A drop of sheer terror made her dizzy with the images, the sounds parading through her head. Pounding feet. Sharp metal. Blood.

She sucked in a deep…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

Ooo, that would be a cool idea.

I had the pro version for a little while as well, but I think both work fine.

I like the look of hand-drawn ones the best, but the ones on there are easier to make and have on hand as I’m writing.

@ellette-giselle

Yes, I had pro for a year. I like it, but I would prefer to hand draw my own map (especially if it will appear in my book.)

I have considered drawing my own trees, mountains, etc, uploading the drawings in Inkarnet, then using the tools there to make my own map, put I never got around to it.

@linus-smallprint

Have you tried using Inkarnet?

I really enjoy using them for my maps after I do the initial sketches.

The next morning, Julian and Leon left to start another journey. They wouldn’t be returning to the capital, so Joseph sent no return letter to Sabina.

Joseph walked with the two former soldiers outside the gates of the town. It was good to be with old friends.…

@theducktator

Alan, must you do something stupid????😩 This is so not going to end well.

No. But don’t we all do stupid things anyway?

@stephie

Also, I love the map! I don’t know, something about maps of fantasy worlds just gets at me. *Smiles dreamily, looking back towards The Lord of the Rings* I also like the name Huntt for a town; it just seems to fit.

@ellette-giselle

I love the map!!!

Thanks, both of you! One of these days, I will actually make the up-to-date version.

@stephie

I hope that helps! 🙂

Yes it does, thank you! I will come back to this later and come up with some ideas.

@loopylin

I meant the latter. I wrote enough words to cover that and mine, which means collectively we have 20 snowballs for you to throw. XD

Lucille flexed her arm with a painful sigh. The wraps around her knuckles curled at the edges with dried blood and sweat. Untying them took more concentration than she thought.

She hastily downed a glass,…

@keilah-h

By the way, how did native-to-Earth animals get to Ehverwyld? I can see the otherworldly animals like vandergrits and dragons having been there since that world’s creation, but what about the crows and horses, etc.? Did they come through the same portals that humans did, but by sheer accident? Or were they created there (Like God just k…
