@rochellaine I don’t know if this counts, because it is in a video game (though they have written books about him), and he is married and has kids, but I just think he is super awesome. It’s Go’el (Thrall) from World of Warcraft. I fangirl so hard over WoW, and Go’el especially. Once, my character went up to talk to him, since he had a quest for…[Read more]

@rochellaine, right, that makes sense! 😀 I thought it was a little…um…unusual.
Also, totally agree with your description of how a man or woman is ready for marriage. This would be our family’s thoughts too.
And yes, yes, yes! You are 100% right! A woman’s highest calling is being a wife and mother! I’m tired of people talking about women’s…[Read more]

@clairec uhh….*starts to sweat furiously* Not sure. It was a long time ago. But I am definitely now going to go and reread A Little Bush Maid and see if I can track down a hardcopy of the others.
Ha, I’ve always liked Joseph a lot, but I’m not sure if I would say I had a crush on him, just that I really like him and look up to…[Read more]

Joy replied to the topic How many characters is too many? in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 7 months ago
@ariella-newheart Good question! I have struggled with the exact same thing in my KPA (that’s Kapeefer Adventure, sort of like the LOKD). I guess it depends on the series: How long it is, and when and where your MC(s) are traveling. If you have to put in all your recurring characters, you could either alter the characters so they fit each scene,…[Read more]

@rochellaine okay, I like that name 🙂
I really like the title Ticket to Blueberria.
I really like your first lines. Maybe you could do it like this: once there was a boy who loved blueberries. At least, he thought he did. Oliver had never tasted one in his life. That way the MC’s name is established early, and you get to keep that awesome f…[Read more]

@rochellaine Personally, I really like your beginning of “Once there was a boy who loved blueberries. At least he thought he did.” It’s really fun and perfect for reading aloud to a sleepy 4 year old. 😉
Maybe you could do “Oliver’s parents knew that he loved blueberries,” instead of “His parents knew that he loved blueberries,” at the begi…[Read more]

ClaireC replied to the topic In Honor of Valentine's Day… in the forum Book Discussions 8 years, 7 months ago
@rochellaine, Yep! The books are your true family. 😀
Also, I quite curious now. You guys have a specific age that you call marriageable age? What is it? We don’t have a specific plan, although I do know that I don’t want to date, looking for ‘the one’. I’m just waiting for God to bring me the right person in His perfect timing. 🙂
Please don’t…[Read more]

@rochellaine Thanks! I play around with Sindarin from LOTR and Norwegian to come up with random stuff. 😀
Ualair is pronounced *looks at Google Doc where pronunciation guide is* *looks back at KP* (Yew-AH-lair Fehn-CAR-yin)

WarrenLuther04 replied to the topic Character Name Exchange in the forum Fantasy 8 years, 7 months ago
@rochellaine I like making names, but I’m kind of late. Here’s a couple of names that I’ve been using in a short story I’ve been working on:
Ualair Fencaryn
Saelethil Fencaryn
(Don’t judge please, they are Alf [elf] names… 🙃🙂

Kaya Young started the topic What's the best book you've read recently? in the forum Book Discussions 8 years, 7 months ago
Ok y’all, I’m about to go off on a book rant because I just read an AMAZING book, and it’s the best I’ve read in a long time. Why? It made me think deeper, and while I may fangirl over a lot of different books, they still don’t make me think about things differently or leave me so… sad that it’s over.
It’s Dawn of Wonder by Jonathan Renshaw.…[Read more]

😀 Believe it or not, I’ve thought the same thing on occasions. So many of our everyday phrases make no actual sense!

@seekjustice yeah, Quillon is a pretty cool guy 😉
@rochellaine I like Gavinaugh and Dalton too. and same! I never liked who Dalton was with at first. Carliss is just awesome

I think you might have actually (or it was @jenwriter17 I’m not sure). I really enjoyed writing him, especially the scenes with him and Chessy. 😀

@rochellaine I am a gracious person, so you may.
I’m hoping to have finished this draft by the end of Feb, and then I’ll be looking for a few beta readers before I go onto the third draft.

@rochellaine XD Yep! It’s quite amusing, although I have a strange case of internet paranoia, so I probably won’t confess anything. 😉 😛 If you know what I mean…
@seekjustice No, thanks for rambling. That is actually really helpful!
And I think I’m going to sign out now. I wrote 797 to my novel, and a beginning of a blog post. Now… I have…[Read more]

@seekjustice Well that’s good. XD I’m glad you’ve enjoyed it so far.
Soo… do you make comments on your novel before editing it? (I’m going to edit a book soon and it will technically be my first time editing a novel by myself on a computer. Yay…)
@rochellaine HI! Ooh, western. I’ve considered doing one of those before.

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writer's Corner #13 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 7 months ago
I can do it, I just need to really knuckle down and read it, instead of getting distracted. I have really enjoyed what I’ve read so far though. I’m hoping to finish making comments on my own novella today, and then I’ll be able to focus on yours!
Yeah…that makes no sense….stranger things have happened though, I’m…[Read more]
