Thank you. We probably would have attempted it if you hadn’t said that, because the movie was really great, but I forgot about how awkward reading aloud can be. 🙂

@emma-flournoy The age range is 14-18. Do you think that’s too young?

@daeus I would go for the audio book if it was well dramatized. My eyes tire quickly, and it’s rare to find a book I really like on audio. I also have a friend who likes audio books because she has a long drive to work every day, and I’m sure she’s not the only person like that.

@emma-flournoy Do you think it would be a good family read? Mommy’s trying to find a good classic for us to read together.

@bluejay Good night! 🙂 🙂

(And I don’t know, but somebody does.)

@i-j-anderson I know! Sahara! Dirk says it to the warlord’s patrol who is trying to board his boat. That’s such a cool movie; if only Eva (is that her name?) had kept more clothes on….

Hehehe, that means I get to quote one. Let’s see…
“There was no parallel to his genius.”

@bluejay?

@leumeister LGBT stands for gay, lesbian, bisexual, etc. *shudders* Do they not use that term in Australia?

@leumeister Are you quoting yourself? 🙂

@anne-of-lothlorien So she got it published? Yay!!! 🙂 I liked it too. I forgot it was based on her grandparents, though. That’s neat.

@perfectfifths Oh, I’m glad you liked it! 🙂 Thank you for the recommendation! My brothers are into making stop motion right now, so they would probably enjoy those (as will I 🙂 ). I didn’t know there were any other Christian Lego movies out there.

@nataliemarie Hi! 🙂

@perfectfifths I have only attempted two stories, both of them historical fiction, and both very unfinished. Once my writing skills improve, I hope to write spiritual warfare fiction, like This Present Darkness by Frank Peretti. Other people have posted snippets of their writing in Scene Critiques, and under the SciFi topic; I just remembered I do…[Read more]

@perfectfifths *very late reply* Oh, I’m glad it was encouraging! That’s why I became a writer, too; there really isn’t enough good Christian fiction out there.

Hi everyone! I apologize for the extended silence. I’ve been thinking and praying about this conversation a lot, and I’m finally ready to present my answer. It does not honor or please God when we entertain ourselves with evil. As Christians, we are to walk in the light, and not play in the darkness. Our…[Read more]

I’m sorry everybody, we were having a really good discussion and then I got it all sidetracked on dinosaurs. So, Jackson brought up a really good point about the magic being influenced by a cult. Since everyone seems to agree that the series was influenced/ inspired by the…[Read more]

@bluejay Hmm….well, Robin Hood was a real person, so that might qualify…or, maybe a story from the perspective of a mischievous ship’s boy on Captain Cook’s ship, exploring the South Sea Islands (I think)….I remember when I was that age, I liked stories about early American history: Indians and settlers, patriots and redcoats. Ooh, and…[Read more]

@perfectfifths Hi! 🙂 I was reading through your introduction again, and I just wanted to encourage you to be bold about your faith in your stories. Not preachy, necessarily, but don’t hide the light God has put inside you. The world is starving for the truth, and you have the means to give it to them. Morality and wholesomeness is good, but it…[Read more]

@jess I’m so sorry! I’ll be praying for the family, and also for your dad’s job.

@mark-kamibaya Wow, thank you! 🙂

@emma-flournoy I saw the 2012 one with Russel Crowe in it.
@mark-kamibaya I didn’t know that they filmed Broadway plays. Would I find it at a library, do you think?
