@gretald @Daeus thanks!

What made him decide to write nonfiction above fiction… does he prefer to read one or the other… why or why not…

Yes, @anna-brie, he said:

“Raspberries do strange things to you when one leg’s in the grave.”

*sigh of relief*

I’m not; I’ve heard of it but don’t know if I want to do it myself. I might sometime…let us know how you like it and how you use it if you do make an account.

I agree with you both. Animals should never be more important than humans. Worlds with animals having souls can work in some fantasy, though I do think it should be carefully handled so it doesn’t seem like the writer is making animals as important as humans.

Do you outline your books beforehand? Why or why not?
What’s the most important lesson you’ve learned through years of writing?
What’s a piece of advice you wish you knew as a young writer?
What are some publishing tips?

@hislittlerose

@faithdk George Orwell, I believe. 🙂

Animal Farm sounds great! Quick question: what’s the author’s name? It might make it a little easier for me to find it.

@kate-flournoy @kate-flournoy He’s alive! He’s alive.
No one else kill him. It takes forever to bring him back if you do. But if that unfortunate event does happen, just whisper in his ear “raspberries” because:

“Raspberries do strange things to you when one leg’s in the grave.”

*faints out of relief*

I love all these questions! I’m so glad I asked y’all! 🙂 Keep ’em coming! I’ll compile the top ten I think are best, but I’ll still use the rest in other interviews. 🙂

And how he makes non-fiction interesting and engaging while still being informative and pithy…

@Rolena-Hatfield egg-zactly. Couldn’t have said it better myself. 😀

@daeus if you’re not alive we won’t be able to write later. *starts stressing.* *Starts to scream hysterically*

@hislittlerose I believe I would be right in saying that the convention has passed? I’m just curious, but while you were there did you see a stall for “Because of Jesus Films”? I have watched a lot of Nathaniel’s work and I wished that I’d been in America to meet you and him. 🙂
How did it go for you?

ARGH I’m awake and @daeus still hasn’t been revived. *falls to the ground in despair*
(doctor’s warning: Don’t eat all the cookies at once @kate-flournoy)

It’s okay @daeus , 🙂 I’m already shifting gears and getting interested in “Animal Farm.” Idealist communism, huh? I’m intrigued …

The Hobbit is awesome, @bluejay ! It’s one of my top favorites. 😀

You probably don’t have to read it again, @ivy-rose to participate in or follow the discussion if you want to. Would that be alright, @daeus ?
