@Ethryndal Well it’s not your fault except that you’re such an awesome person I can’t help wanting to follow your blog!
Heeeey, yeah, there’s that message. 😉
Well, I think there are only two—its and it’s. I think there’s a rule breaker (hate those things)—‘it’s’ is only for ‘it is’, and ‘its’ is for when something belongs to it. With a…[Read more] -

@Adry_Grace Yay for Enjolras. 😀 He’s one of my top faves too. And yes, you DO need to find a copy of the book! Look, here’s a link to the kind we have; I don’t know if we bought it here or not, but this is the one we have.…[Read more]

@Ethryndal Your blog! Just what I need, another blog to follow. Grr. I don’t need more things for my time. But I want to! I was looking ’round on it, and you’re too hilarious (which I knew from KP already 😉 I love your humor.). I’ll have to pop in every now and then, so even if you don’t see comments from me I’m probably still keeping an eye on…[Read more]

Well @Adry_Grace and @His-Instrument, I just made a long reply to you a few minutes ago, but I had to edit something and now it’s not showing up though I try and try…I’ll come back later I guess and see if I can make it work.

Hi Keepers,
I thought I’d better touch base and let you all know that I’m still around but just not able to spend time on Kingdom pen. I’m ashamed to admit that I breached my parents’ trust and that’s going to take some time and effort to…[Read more] -

Hey @Jess!! Welcome back. Hope you had a blast. 🙂

@Daeus Okay. I’d thought of that, but I wasn’t thinking in a roundabout enough way. 😛
Thanks.

@GracieGirl *huge thumbs up*
@Dragon-Snapper No one will kill you (at least not I). But is for your own satisfaction you should read them. 😀
I’ve only read two of those though, so don’t feel awful. 😛 -

@Daeus I must be overthinking. Pay me no mind. *shallow sigh*
So was it the man’s identity (not Edwin—the other guy)? -

@GracieGirl Read Les Mis. It will not disappoint. (Unless you read the wrong version, perhaps. 😉 )
The version I read was a Signet Classic, complete and unabridged version, translated by Lee Fahenstock and Norman MacAfee. Here’s a link, just so you can see which one it is…I’m not sure if we bought it from here or not but am pretty certain it’s…[Read more] -

@Daeus I thought so but couldn’t figure out which—the girl’s, his, or the man’s, and why it necessarily would endanger his life.

Stirring…moving…
Wow, that’s a lot of words. 😐
I’d like stirring, or moving, or poignant bittersweetness fine…

Emma Flournoy replied to the topic Book Description Opinions in the forum Novel Critique Requests 9 years, 2 months ago
@Daeus I like that replacing of the last sentence. I went through and tried to find everything it was talking about based on having read the book now and I don’t catch exactly what the long-hidden truth that will (will, not just might) threaten his life is…but I’m assuming I’m just looking at it the wrong way, so go do. I know you wouldn’t have…[Read more]

@Christi-Eaton That last scene sounds like how I’ve read the musical ends…is the play based on the musical, I wonder?
But wow, you sure sound to have had loads of fun. 😀 Sobbing on stage does seem it’d be quite an interesting experience. I might like it if I ever had the chance, provided I could make myself really cry. 😛 Not just fake-sob. It…[Read more] - Load More

@bluejay I was just thinking about you tonight, and wondering if you had gotten injured or sick. I’m so glad you are okay! 🙂 I’m sorry things aren’t going well. I will be praying for you, and for your family! We really miss you. :'( 🙂
Hey, @bluejay! Glad to see you again, though I’m sorry to hear what’s been going on! I was wondering where you went, especially since I made comments on that story you sent. If you’re still up for all that and want to get in contact with me, I have changed my email, so I’ll have to send it again 🙂
@bluejay, I’m so sorry this has happened for you. I have to say that I can fully empathize and understand where you’re coming from.Please know that I will not judge you, as I have also broken my parents trust on multiple occasions in the past. That was one of the reasons I started spending less time here. As you said, sometimes these things bring…[Read more]
@Bluejay!!! I’ve been thinking of you quite often and wondering what was up; and been praying for you, ’cause I’d no idea why I hadn’t heard from you in so long. I’ll certainly keep praying for you and your family, and I really hope all goes well.
Love you. *hugs*
@Kate-Flournoy Just making sure you saw this.
@bluejay ah, I wondered where you went. I’ll be praying, for sure. And yes, believe me— in the long run, this will strengthen your family. 🙂
@bluejay Miss you bunches and bunches, girl, but I’m glad you gave us this update and were so honest! That take a lot of courage. Praying for y’all and proud of you for making a hard (but ultimately, I’m sure, good) decision!
I miss you a lot already, @bluejay . 🙁 Don’t stay away too long! I’ll pray that you and your family will be able to work things out.
