    So it seems like a lot of you said the same things, and I realized that just this scene alone doesn’t make much sense lol 🙂 So I’ll try to explain a little more.

    This is basically the climax of Christopher and Briana’s relationship. So it’s…[Read more]

    Hello! I would like some ideas on this scene.

    Background: Christopher and Briana used to like each other, but then they got captured and Briana blamed it on Christopher. She is trying to convince herself that she hates him, though she still likes him. Christopher loves her, but he hates her for hating him. (does that make sense lol?) Currently…[Read more]

    Aw, thanks! It is challenging–but so beautiful and so worth it! Especially since I get to serve in church.

    I love organs, especially when the organist really pulls the stops on a hymn like “How Great Thou Art!”

    Bagpipes just make me happy. I don’t know why. 🙂

    @felicity

    We all play piano, I play cello, my sister plays violin, and my dad plays guitar. I guess we all sing, too. My parents sing for church sometimes. My sister and I play in the church orchestra, and we play piano for youth group, too.

    Oo, yes, harps are so pretty! I’m just scared by all the strings lol.

    I don’t know what my favorite…[Read more]

    I love your focus on God, and how you’re just gushing with joy lol 🙂 I know you’ve been through some challenges, but God is faithful and always will be.

    Ah yes, Hobby Lobby. What would we do without it? And cats. And toothpaste. And . . . floss. I have braces and am not enjoying how long flossing takes.

    I guess I do like a lot of instrumental music! It comes from being in a family of crazy music lovers. We all play instruments. What’s your favorite Ludovico Einaudi song? Mine is Due Tremonti or Experience. Or a million others. You should listen to Evynne Hollens! I especially like her duets with Peter.

    No, it is not part of the Green Ember. (Those are good too!)

    @mineralizedwritings

    Lol, good to know! 😀

    @koshka

    I hadn’t even thought about toothpaste. Shows how much we take for granted, right?

    @lightoverdarkness6

    I echo everything you said.

    @everyone

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    It is! I read it yesterday . . . Are the others in the series good too?

    Lol I suppose they are.

    Yo there.

    @felicity

    Yes, I’m encouraged so much by the hope God gives us just when we need it. I don’t know if you’ve read The City of Ember (I forget the author lol), but basically the people are trapped in an underground city and the lights are going out. There is a group of people referred to as the “Believers” who are always smiling and singing and…[Read more]

    @felicity

    I think the plural of “appendix” is “appendices.” It sounds weird tho! lol

    @theloonyone

    I don’t really have a favorite genre of music. I listen to classical music a lot, and I like Ludovico Einaudi, movie soundtracks, and sometimes Peter and Evynne Hollens.

    Yes, you should read the Roman Britain Trilogy! The first book The Eagle of…[Read more]

  • Hey!! I thought it would be fun to have a topic where we can share things we’re thankful for from the last year.

    For me, one of the big things is recovery from Covid. (I love how this says “Covid” isn’t a word lol) My family was very sick–I had to go to the ER twice. But God brought all of us through.

    More generally, I’m thankful for the…[Read more]

    @theloonyone

    Nice to meet you!

    I struggle with procrastination a little. More like I just don’t feel like writing for weeks and weeks. 🙂

    1. I mostly write fantasy, though I do like historical fiction.

    2. Oh, wow, I don’t know! Can I say I’d bring my computer so I can listen to whatever I want? lol

    3. The Lord of the Rings, the rest of the…[Read more]

    Hello!!

    Good luck with the aquarium!! I’ve found it to be very rewarding and interesting. Bettas are so beautiful, they can just be a little mean. I originally had mine with my other fish, but it and my catfish hated each other so . . .

    1. I have the betta and my clown pleco, also 4 gold skirt tetras and 3 tetras that I…[Read more]

    Yes, languages are so cool!! I haven’t gotten the nerve to learn something with an entirely different alphabet yet . . . but maybe someday!

    I like your signature! Very true and encouraging.[/quote]

    Aw, thanks! I stole it from Arwen . . . in “The Tale of Aragorn and Arwen” which is in the back of The Return of the King, I…[Read more]

    @mineralizedwritings

    Hmm, favorite marine creature? It depends on what kind! I’m into aquarium keeping, and my favorite fish I own right now is either my clown pleco (a catfish) or my betta (who lives by himself so he and the catfish don’t terrorize each other lol)

    As for ocean creatures, I recently have gotten fascinated with sea spiders. So…[Read more]

    Hello! Nice to meet you!

    Yay, someone else who likes Dutch Blitz!! It seems like whenever I mention it to my friends, they’re just like “Um . . . never heard of that.”

    Yay, more questions!

    #1. No I do not. I believe that if there were other universes, they would be mentioned in the Creation account.

    #2. Well, I’m actually learning,…[Read more]

    @mineralizedwritings

    So nice to meet you!

    Yay, I love questions lol 🙂

    #1. My favorite character is definitely Christopher. He’s probably my most developed character, and just a lot of fun. He’s 19, and the king (his father dies in my book), and struggles with depression. But he’s also very goofy.

    #2. Hmm, favorite theme. I guess I would say…[Read more]
