@kate-flournoy That’s neat! How small were they? Were they able to fly? I always thought the treasure hoarding was weird- why would an animal want money? But that makes sense. I wonder if there are any still alive? There are dinosaurs (or dragons, if you prefer), still alive in other parts of the world.

@warrioroftherealm Oh, I hope I get to read it some day! The Peleg Chronicles are the only books I’ve found that have that kind of dragon in them, and I’d like to read more books like that.

@warrioroftherealm I read the Pathfinder when I was 10 or 11. The story was great, but I hated the ending. I cried. I liked the pathfinder, and I was so mad at- was her name Megan?- for marrying Jacques instead. Now that I’m eighteen, I would probably be much more understanding, come to think of it. 🙂

@sierra-r The boy probably deserved it. 🙂
And I looked up the Cold Steel swords. They are not $300, so I’m actually feeling a slight shred of hope!

Christian, first of all. I have strong political convictions, and at the same time I’m not really into politics.
Anti-federalist – me too! History books say they were impractical, but I don’t care. Conservative Republican. I like the Tea Party people. What is Libertarian? It sounds like “liberal”, but it can’t be. Ummm, what else? I liked Ted…[Read more] -

@kate-flournoy Oh yes, most dragon legends come from dinosaurs. It’s fun to research that. Have you watched Dinosaurs and the Bible by Dr. Kent Hovind? If you haven’t, it’s very interesting. Dragons like the ones in Beowulf or St. George and the Dragon are very obviously dinosaurs. However, the creatures with magical powers, telepathic power…[Read more]

@jess at the moment I am making a very un-elven expression of extreme envy. Do you write fantasy? Because if so, I bet that really helps!
@winter-rose Oh, I’m sure my parents wouldn’t be scared at ALL about a sword in my hands…*evil laugh*

We need to start a foundation for poor children whose only material desire in life is to get a real sword. -

@Daeus @kate-flournoy Wow, the first Elf. I’m not certain whether to feel extremely proud, or a little lonely…:)
@bluejay Yes, I write fantasy. There’s so much to this world that I figure I might as well spend all my time figuring out another, completely unreal one. But hey, nothing in the imagination is fake, right? And hopefully, the more I…[Read more]

@mark-kamibaya I suspect you are right. Some people who are into New Age and believe in Ascended Masters and all that actually believe that dragons are real, supernatural creatures that can interact with them. Although I think they are just demons in disguise.

@writefury Hurray!!!!! You’re back!!!!! You were very missed. (So was Cobalt. 🙂 ) I am curious; is Odd Team Out a series? Because the bit of it I read on your blog was different from the link you posted on KP.

What a neat idea! I’m excited. I don’t know if it will be okay with my parents….in fact, it might not be…..but if it is, I’ll attend all I can. And I’m probably a 6, too.

Hi @sarah-h! I’ll tag @bluejay too, so she can see some of my news. I am doing well. Summer is now in full swing in Queensland. average lows temperatures of mid 30s (Celsius. in Fahrenheit, that’s high 80s) and a bit more rain than usual. Hanging out for the end of the school year. You lucky things don’t have that anymore. I discovered I can’t…[Read more]
@clairec Summer rain…that sounds wonderful. Here, it’s late fall and starting to get cold. “Vintage literary” does sound cool, but I’m not exactly sure what it means. Old books? Classics? Wait, are you seventeen now? Happy birthday!!!!! 🙂
Yeah, HAPPY BIRTHDAY @clairec 🙂
@clairec @bluejay Right now we’re watching a series on Australia. I finally understand why you call it “the bush” instead of “forest”. 🙂
What’s the series called? Good, glad you get to see our wonderful homeland. It’s an awesome place to live.
East, West, Home is Best! 🙂
@sarah-h
Okay! I am very sorry that this is so belated. I’d written it in a document and forgot to post it. @sarah-h (and @bluejay), here we go! *takes a big breath and lets it out slowly*
We have seals and sea lions. (look them up, they’re actually pretty cute!) Living in Queensland, I have been to the Great Barrier Reef multiple times. Snorkeling there…[Read more]
Oh, @bluejay, it’s called Wild Australia. Are there any videos/documentaries/etc. on Australia you would recommend?
Yeah, I’m sorry this was so long… 🙁 Vintage library, @sarah-h, basically, it was a dinner party with food from books, 1920s to 1950s costumes, and many other book themed things… so yeah, it was awesome. 🙂
@clairec I’m sorry I’m so late; I was on a camping trip. Wow! Thank you for writing this! It sounds like some of the animals are pretty friendly; that’s so neat! I’m glad you left that town before the bush fire came. That sounds scary. Does Tasmania look any different from Victoria? I always imagined it as greener than the mainland, but I’ve never…[Read more]
