@jane-maree Here, take some ice cream. I have to head out now too.
Have fun with the future!
*wait…does this mean I’m living in the past* Weird.

@daughteroftheking Alrighty! We will have lots of fun! I’ll share some of the ice cream with you. 😀

@Dragon-Snapper Cool. 😀

@jane-maree FRIEND! It’s good to read you! 😀

@daughteroftheking Excellent! We start with Earth.

@catwing @daeus @shannon @epicaddie2 @jessi-rae I’m either writing, editing or evilly plotting. One of those three. Join me, and we can rule the…ah…solar system.

Wow! This is deep! I’ve never thought of this before. Perhaps, though this might not work, the prince and princess would be actually lying, saying they were relatives of the family or whatever you were going to have them say. The family maybe doesn’t know that the MCs are saying this for a while, and when they find out about it they teach them…[Read more]

@daughteroftheking Haha! Yes, I do like Star Trek. I mainly watch Voyager, though from time to time I’ll watch Next Generation. As for the movies, I’ve only seen Star Trek: Beyond. Which ones do you like?

@lifeofkatie Thank you muchly!

@aratrea It is running at about 84,200 words as of now. Who knows how long it will be after I’m done editing? XD

@His-Instrument excellent example. I’ll just point back to what I said in my first post about consequences for every action, good and bad. Did Jean Valjean save Cosette’s life by assuming a name (and history) that was not his own? Possibly. Very probably.
Could God have saved her life anyway if Valjean had told the absolute truth? Yes.…[Read more]

@his-instrument *blink* Wow, excellent question… I had to think about this one…

However, my answer is not going to be as theological or philosophical as @daeus and @kate-flournoy 😛

So, it wasn’t your post that made me think about this, but rather, the title. Your word alias, made me think about all the alias’ in the world right now. Pen…[Read more]

@His-Instrument yeah. What he said.

@His-Instrument great questions.

My first thought is that comparing the practice of using an alias to protect one’s life to pretending madness is a little extreme. For one, your name is not who you are. It’s just what people call you. ‘By their fruit you shall know them’, not ‘by their name’.
That said, I believe it’s a fair question and…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 which one?

@dragon-snapper

YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!! A thousand congratulations! (And lots of confetti…)

@Allison-Grace *sniffs* They already said it all.
I’ll just second what @Daeus said; you can have as many themes as you think will work, so long as they’re all related and complement each other. For instance, if your primary theme is honesty, your supporting themes could be telling the truth in love and/or telling the truth even when it’s ugly.…[Read more]

@mariposa Aha….I think that I’ll give it to him when it’s done being edited then. *glances over work*
Oh dear. Dinosaur will not read this thing. XD
@kate-flournoy *goes forth and conquers*
@daughteroftheking *hopes desperately that the world doesn’t explode for the surge of confetti*
@emma-flournoy Tis ye olde science fiction. 😀 I think I’m…[Read more]

@jane-maree @jessi-rae @epicaddie2 @catwing @shannon I’m on for a bit, trying to organize the scenes for my next novel. (YAYAYAYAYAY! So many opportunities!)

Let’s dig in. 😀

@allison-grace I was just working on the themes for my sequel, so I can compare my two theme-experiences.
For my first book, I wanted to have way more than one theme. In fact, I had nearly seven-ish themes. Then, I cut it back down to two. Although I managed to make them work, I found it extremely difficult to tackle. Now, I’m just working with…[Read more]
