@his-instrument Welcome!!! It’s always great to see new people join the bestistest place on the internet! (saying that never gets old for us…if you hadn’t noticed already 😉 )

Good point, @writefury. I agree.
It’s always nice when you can break things down into smaller categories. 😉

Thanks @bluejay! This poem looks great guys 😉

Ha! I just read my first chapter and my last chapter. *choke, cough, laugh* Yeah, I’ve come a long way.

*contented, nostalgic sigh* Doesn’t it bring such a feeling of accomplishment, @Daeus? Now imagine if we all grew that much with each passing novel! That would be totally… um… freaky actually. Eventually there’d be no more room to grow… !_! 😀

@hope the more I think about it, the more that makes sense. Thanks! 🙂

@Bluejay Ooo, that sounds like a good book! Maybe I’ll read it this summer (I only say “maybe” because I already have so many other books I want to read this summer. 😉 ).

Actually, @daeus , I really, really do want to know how you did it …

“Wow, @daeus ! 😮 😀 You just climbed Mount Novel for the first time! Do you want to share your secret to success?” (Please do. I’m all ears 😉 )

@his-instrument Yes, a dove isn’t very epic. But what about a phoenix?

@kate-flournoy I just completed a theology class with a part about the Trinity this last winter… God is three in one. The different tasks, for lack of a better word (such as salvation and judgment) are attributed to all three persons of the Godhead at different times or…[Read more]

I agree with what Daeus said. It’s possible, if done carefully. Personally, while I don’t think dragons are inherently worse than any other animal and I really like them, I don’t know if I’d use them allegorically in such a manner because of the association. Then again, as I think about it, it could be done if it were the right kind of world and…[Read more]

@Daeus I will. You may be sure.

Hm… I’m not exactly sure, actually @Daeus… I always got the impression the Holy Spirit was more of a justice/judge type… Your definition definitely does seem to fit better. It’s not a huge theological cornerstone of mine or anything. 😀 I’ve not even studied a lot on it. I’m going to be once I get to where that actually gets important to my…[Read more]

Hm, for my allegory (yes, I do allegory as well, what a small world it is! Hahaha… 😉 ). I don’t go very deeply into the actual physical character of the Trinity— a voice in a whirlwind would probably be the closest I’ve come at this point to actually giving God some ‘screen time’. (That sounds awful…) 😛 Mostly it’s theory— urgh, no,…[Read more]

@gretald I’ll tell you what is on the back of the book.

Nick Allen – Troublemaker?
Nick says no. He just like to liven things up at school, that’s all – and he’s always full of great ideas. And when Nick learns something interesting about how words are created, suddenly he’s got the inspiration for his greatest plan ever…
Who says a pen has to…[Read more]

Oooh, good topic @his-instrument! I have one thought that I think sums it up pretty well— ‘By their fruits you shall know them.’
Do your dragons save? They are then portrayed as saviors, not evil pagan gods. Do they devour? They are indeed evil, though not necessarily pagan. It is what they do, not what they are, I think. It’s one of those…[Read more]

@his-instrument
Hello, Hannah! (I don’t know if you remember me but I was at TeenPact, too. We sat together for breakfast on the last day. 🙂 ) Anyway, welcome!
“Words have great power, the power of life or death, and we have the gift and privilege of being able to use them for life.” This blew me away! Preach it, girl! 😉

@Bluejay No, what’s it about?
