@koshka This is really beautiful!

@trailblazer

Nice topic!!

Biggest one: how do you celebrate Christmas Eve/Christmas? (family gatherings, church services, other fun traditions?)

So, we don’t live near any of our extended family right now, but sometimes we meet up with my Dad’s parents. We’ve never done Christmas with my mom’s side (that I can remember). This year they came a few…[Read more]

It was super interesting! I love family dynamics like this! I didn’t really have any critiques, but please tag me if you post more!

@livingwoodchronicles

Awesome! I’m technically already in an anthology that I’m not sure I’ll have finished in time, so I don’t think I should sign up for another yet… I would be interested to read it once it’s done, though! And I’ll let you know if I change my mind. 🙂

@trailblazer

Aww, I love it!!

@trailblazer

Aw me too! That was so funny XD

@acancello

Oh my goodness, congratulations!! That’s so exciting!!

@savannah_grace2009

1. Is it boring?? I’ve been really scared that this doesn’t draw you in and isn’t interesting.

Nope!

2. Is Sef relatable? Can you really feel her and does she become real in your mind?

Yes, she’s definitely relatable!

3. Was there anywhere that you were confused?

Hmm, I don’t think so, since I’ve read most of to before, but I d…[Read more]

@esther-c Wow! I really like it so far! It pulls you in really well, and I like the cliffhanger type chapter endings. I’ll try to answer the questions!

1. Were you drawn into the story right away?

Yep!

2. What are your first impressions of these characters? (Specifically the MCs. I know some of y’all already know these charries, but just p…[Read more]

@trailblazer Aww!!! 🥰 Yeah, I’m team Albert and Libbie.

@savannah_grace2009

That sounds good, I’m glad you were able to get a clear answer from God! I agree, I think it still definitely works even without the shorter beginning. And even if it does turn some readers away, it’s going to touch the people God wants it to. 🙂

@savannah_grace2009

Of course! Sorry, I think my last post lagged. I really like your idea of doing the flashback and then going to Lilitu’s pov, though!

@grcr @savannah_grace2009

Yeah, I did notice that! Maybe Lilitu’s chapter could come after Sef’s?

@sara

Definitely! I hope you figure it out!

@savannah_grace2009

Hey! I think the first one does a great job of pulling the reader in more, but the second one also has some great writing in it.

I know the chapter with Sef and her mom really means a lot to you, and it does a good job of setting up the backstory of Sef’s parents and a little bit of world building. So really they both work in…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009 @rae

I’ll be praying for you guys! I’m sorry it’s been so rough.

@esther-c Hey! Sorry I meant to respond to this when I saw it, but I got distracted with other stuff xD.

The first ones probably my favorite. The second one feels a little abrupt… almost, if that makes sense. But I think they both work!

@trailblazer

I can’t wait for the next part! I don’t really have many ideas for plot events, but I’ll let you know if I think of any good ones! Yeah, probably reading other books like it would help.

Oops sorry, lag

@savannah_grace2009 @jonas

Yeah, so 4:00 central time would be 5:00 eastern, 3:00 mountain, and 2:00 Pacific.

@jonas

Okay, I think that will probably work! I’ll try to remember.
