Agh yes I am lol

I’ve missed being on here :/

I’ve been so busy between school and work! (I recently got a job at a coffee shop which is good because I get money! But hard because I don’t have as much free time anymore!)

@theducktator @whalekeeper @esther-c @jonas @highscribeofaetherium @theshadow @grcr

I wrote some new chapters!

They’re really, REALLY rough but hopefully you guys enjoy them

(It gives me motivation to be able to share what I wrote with people, so thank you for supporting me 😊💜)

I’m so sorry!

I don’t think this popped up in my email so I never saw it *cries*

How am I just now seeing this?!

Anyways, that makes a lot of sense!

I will think about that XDXD

And don’t worry about the length, I enjoyed reading your thoughts!!!!

@theducktator

Same kinda situation for us! Glad you’re all okay!!

@theducktator

Darn midwestern tornado season.

Tell me about it 😵‍💫😂

Did y’all stay safe??

@theducktator

Praying!! Is it over?

@esther-c

Sorry, I don’t read Middle-grade fiction, so I won’t be much help

Chase hesitated. “I-I…” he fell silent, shaking his head. “N-no i-dea. W-who’s Lo-Lo-is?”

Supposed to get some more severe weather tonight. To be completely honest, I’m a little worried, even though we’ve never gotten a tornado in our neighborhood (even though we’ve lived here for 15+ years). It’d be great if the sirens didn’t go off at all and we didn’t have to go down to the basement (because then we don’t have to lose any sleep if…[Read more]

I definitely think you can either leave out any romance, or if you do mention the subject of boys and girls liking each other, do it in a way that is appropriate for the readers based on Biblical standards. I remember reading books when I was ten/eleven that gave me the idea that boy-girl relationships were normal at my age and that’s…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon @koshka

I have wanted to rant on Ranger brilliance for months. But sometimes we writers just have to rant to our pillows.

Lolol.

Great section!

@koshka

Um. Romance. I don’t mind adultsfalling in love and getting married in the background of a kid’s book. I don’t even really mind young teens liking each other, or decided that they will one day marry someone (Sarah and Janner, for instance). But really, kids today are under so much pressure to pair up, that they aren’t allowed to live the…

Oh, sounds fun! Middle grade is a great genre. I was just thinking the other day about how there needs to be more actually good books for tweens and kids. [I was helping my brother look for some books, and he’s pretty specific in what he likes, but I could barely think of any Christian books or ones that were completely wholesome (…[Read more]

I am so so so sorry for not getting back to you sooner!! this got buried under a bunch of other things I had to take care of. But I’m back!

So far, for the first one I want it to be set in the summer or fall, and be about two high schoolers sending paper airplanes to each other from really far away and the two’s relationship and how…

Hallie NO. I spent that whole scene with that sinking feeling that a character was about to do something stupid and she did. *sigh*

👀🫢

My dad is only 5’8” and he’s still 10 times the man that your Patrick is, Hallie. *glares*

Lemme just say, if there’s ever a sequel, Patrick’s coming back…

And you’ll prolly see what I mean by…[Read more]

Oh, cool!

@everyone

So, I actually remembered that one of the Fridays on the form (the 25th) will be hard for me to make since I have my violin concert that day. 🤦‍♀️ If we end up needing to go with that day, I can try to make it, but I may need someone else to set it up if I can’t come.
