It looks like our best option would be either Slack or creating a new website, I think. We can always switch around depending on what works and what doesn’t.

Sounds like a sweet dynamic! This helpful bit from an article came to mind: siblings more than five years apart are more like only children than the typical oldest, youngest, and middle stereotypes. The article phrased it as the birth order “resetting” every five years. Of course, the oldest child will still have to share things, and…[Read more]

It has been really buggy lately… I could barely sign in the last few days.

Linus, do you still think creating a website is the best option, considering other applications like Slack and Discord? (I’m sorry, I can’t remember what we decided about that.)

@whalekeeper

Hi I actually haven’t read that many sibling stories but when I think about sibling stories I think about my sister and I. We’re really different people but I really feel like no matter where I am in life and where she ends up I could never stop caring about her and wondering how she’s doing. Even if I get really busy or get married…[Read more]

@liberty

That’s exciting! I’ll have to check her books out!

@whalekeeper

Honestly, I just love them all. 😂 I’m sorry, I know that’s not really helpful.

If you want to share more about the characters, maybe we could try to throw out some more specific ideas?

Yes, I’ve been thinking and praying about that. So tragic that it happened in the first place, but also that his family had to witness it. 😔

I’m not here to get into a political debate, but I just wanna say that it’s awful to hear about things like this becoming normal in our country while I’m currently studying the founding of our nation…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

WHOOOHOO!!! Congrats!!

The ending was so sweet!! 😂 I wasn’t expecting that time jump, but it was fun to see afterward. And the drawing scene… so cute 🥺☺️. I love that he’s teaching it now, even if he can’t do it.

And oh my goodness. Jason and Evan were hilarious in the epilogue. 😂😂😂

I did notice that the very last scene y…[Read more]

Thank you for the prayers!

We took him to the vet yesterday, and I went with Mom (since I had to help lift him into the trunk). It was a little scary, not knowing what the vet would say. The bad news is that he tore his other (dog equivalent of an) ACL on his right knee, which had a 50% chance of happening after he had torn his left ACL (from…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle
oh no… 😭😭😭
Is he really dead?

@ellette-giselle
Oh…. My… goodness.
Rory!!!!
I can’t believe you left us on another cliffhanger! (Well, I can, but still.) 😅
How many more chapters in the book?

@ellette-giselle

No, we didn’t!! (Ok, I thought Cassion might die, but now I think he has a chance!! Jonathan and Michael can get there just in time!)

Augh. 🙄🤣

@ellette-giselle

Another cliffhanger?! 😢😳

@ellette-giselle

Good chapters! I did notice there was a sentence in the second to last chapter where you started in Rory’s POV, then swapped to Cassion’s for a brief section. It was like, “Cassion wanted to make sure Rory really understood” or something along those lines.

I really hope the rebels will rescue them. This is getting close.

@theducktator

I’ve been praying for you. 🫂 I’ve lost both my grandparents on my mom’s side, and even though I probably didn’t see them as much or know them as well as you probably did your grandmother, I totally understand what you’ve probably been thinking and feeling. Sending hugs and prayers for peace, comfort, and strength. ❤️

Guys I’m so scared we’re going to have to put down our dog. 😭 I think I might have shared requests about him before, but in the past year (or maybe less), he’s had health issues, mostly pulling muscles, tearing an ACL, and most recently we found out something’s wrong with his back. We’ve taken him to the vet multiple times for multiple different…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle
I’m guessing this will be the climax of the book?

@ellette-giselle
Oh my goodness. I feel so bad for Cassion and Rory… 😭 I feel like it’s inevitable that he’s going to die.

Evan’s decision to fly anyway makes sense. I’m glad you did that.

Jonathan and Amber… 🥰 xD

@ellette-giselle
Good chapters!! I liked how Cassion told Rory about God. Things are getting tense. Evan… 😬🥺

@ellette-giselle
AGG! What was that?!!

Please don’t tell me Rory does it…
