Hiiii Esther! I just saw this!!!
I have a critique for Easton’s character arc.

You’ve been having him do all these things for Tyler, and having him trying to encourage Tyler.

Do you mean to have him come off as kind of distant and cold? like Shadow said, he feels really impersonal.

What I mean is, in your book are you trying to show…[Read more]

One time back when I was a kid and lived further west a giant slug slimed on me and we couldn’t get it off, even had to use that like industrial soap that has sand beads in it. I was crying so hard 😭

@whalekeeper

oof lol, I’ll pray for you! I’ve had scopes before but under anesthesia, I can’t imagine doing it awake!

@theducktator Yay!!

@whalekeeper

Totally understand where you’re coming from. I’ll be praying!

@the_lost-journal

Congratulations!!!

@keilah-h

Ewwww! Babies too? 🤮

@ellette-giselle

Nope. XD

@ellette-giselle

Yes, I did—I think I responded? Unless I didn’t send it?

It’s cool. I had no idea what it meant until I read the rest of it though. XD

@ellette-giselle

That’s so exciting!!!! Congratulations!!!!

@ellette-giselle

Yay!! I was getting a little worried 😅

Have you graduated yet, by the way? (Congrats if you did!)

This section was good. I think you did a good job of showing the horror of the University executions without making it too descriptive *shudders*

Leon ran the other way, and Julian turned and scrambled down the street nearest to…

@ellette-giselle

No new sections?

@whalekeeper

I definitely understand from my perspective as a loved one of the sick person.

I’m glad you’re able to recognize it’s different, bc it really is but it’s still so much more understanding than most people have.

There is nothing more frustrating than thinking there is improvement, and backtracking for what seems like a ridiculous or…

My mum has complained about how doctors used to constantly tell her she was crazy and imagining things, which also led to self-image issues because they discriminated against her weight gain. I’m sorry you’re going through similar problems. Please update when you want, I want to listen too. <3<3

It’s really good to know som…[Read more]

@rae

Yeah ikr! It’s honestly so insane. And American healthcare isn’t the best at sorting that kind of stuff out in my experience.

Thank you so much < 3

@koshka OOH I LOVE IT

I don’t have anything to edit atm and am deep in the trenches of drafting😂 so probably not joining

however, I shall cheer y’all on from the sidelines🤭🥳

@rae

Yeah Ikr! Unfortunately there aren’t enough doctors in my area so some kinds of healthcare are simply not available. For instance, my sister has been told she likely has ehlers danlos syndrome, a connective tissue disorder that effects all parts of the body’s function. It’s supposed to be diagnosed by a rheumatologist but because there is a…[Read more]

@rae

Thanks girl, I’ll pray for you too < 3

Ouch that doesn’t sound like fun. Yeah I’ve heard of that, my cousin has chronic Epstein bar virus and it comes back sometimes. It’s exhausting when stuff you thought you were done with still lingers… ugh. I tested positive for Lyme last fall but the doctor didn’t feel confident treating me, and now…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

What I’m asking is, as readers, did you get anything out of this in this book at this time in this place, or did you just read it more to get over it to the next part of the story?

I agree with Keilah and Linus—I think you should leave it in, but maybe have Julian encourage the believers more by reminding them of their future hope.
