Erica replied to the topic What’s your theme song? in the forum Music 1 year, 11 months ago
I have a lot! One I really like for my character Christopher is “Angel Fire” by Fernando Ortega. And “A Whole New World” from Aladdin (I especially like Peter and Evynne Hollens’ version) is great for him and Briana.

Sisters are hands down the best co-conspirators. And the wee hours of the morning are the BEST time to talk all things WIPs, character romances, etc. 😀 🤣
Yes!! Sisters are the best for planning romances (whether character romances or otherwise lol 🤣🤣)
I’ve always wanted an older brother! But my sister is great too…

@everyone
I noticed you have been discussing Harry Potter. I haven’t read or watched it either. My dad read the first book or two, and his problem with it was that the kids were disobeying and then getting rewarded for it, not as much the magic. But I understand my family’s view are different from others. And that’s totally fine!

I think the content of what you write really depends on your maturity level more than what’s right/wrong. Also the things that you as an individual are tempted by. And I think it’s a good principle to only write what you are…[Read more]

This is an interesting topic that I’ve been thinking a lot about recently, too.
I’ve never written anything that I would call dark or explicitly creepy (though of course all books have some tension and maybe scary moments).
However I do write fantasy, and I know that some people wouldn’t agree that that is morally okay. I…[Read more]

Yes, it was fun to read! Sometimes it’s hard to read a book with an old writing style, but I liked this one!

Erica replied to the topic Civil War Novel Idea in the forum Historical 1 year, 11 months ago
I’ve only written a little his-fic, but your idea sounds super interesting!
I’m glad you’re planning on writing a Confederate soldier and not making him a bad guy. I think our world needs to learn that not all people related to a cause are automatically evil even if the cause itself is.
I think I already like your characters! It would…[Read more]

Erica replied to the topic Do your characters tend to be more extraverted or introverted? in the forum Topic of the Week 1 year, 11 months ago
When I was little I was super introverted (like I didn’t want to walk around church by myself, I was that shy). Now I do like having people around and getting a weekly dose of society lol 🤣

Erica replied to the topic Storyline help! in the forum Plotting 1 year, 11 months ago
Personally I think implants of any kind are super creepy, but that’s just me. Maybe that’s what you’re going for 😂 But if it was going to be a headband, there would have to be a way that the villain could make people wear them. Maybe the headbands can’t be removed or something. But do whatever you want!
I don’t think people would…[Read more]

@kathleenramm @sarafini @koshka @godlyfantasy12
Let’s see . . .
My characters Christopher, Elena, Alexander, Cara, and maybe Briana are extroverts. Andrea, Michael, and Jade are introverts.
But sometimes a character changes throughout the book, you know? I’m more of an introvert myself, so it’s funny more of my characters are extroverts . . .

Sam is so wonderful, and I believe he’s the main character.
I totally agree that Sam is the main character! (I haven’t seen the movies either 😂)
Sam could easily quote Francis in Men of Iron “If your neck is worth so little, mine if worth no more.” Suddenly imagining Sam as Frodo’s squire. O.O
Yes!! You’ve read Men of Iron too? Isn’t…

(Sorry it took me so long to reply! Life . . .)
That’s so good! I love it!
Sometime I’d like to make moodboards for my characters. How do you do it? (Also asking @freedomwriter76, @loopylin @mineralizedwritings @anyone else who does it :))

That’s actually not that bad! Sounds like you have some good ideas, even if the writing style needs a little work 🙂
I’ve done far worse lol.

Erica replied to the topic Pray for this Family!! in the forum Mission, Calling & Ethics 1 year, 11 months ago
That one’s got to be my favorite.
I know. I was reading 2 Corinthians 1 this morning and that verse was across the page. It just jumped out at me and I was like “Whoa. That one’s going on Kingdom Pen.”

@felicity @lightoverdarkness6 @mineralizedwritings @arien @anyone else I forgot
Just wanted to share a couple verses that really spoke to me:
Job 19:25-27
As for me, I know that my Redeemer lives, and at the last He will take HIs stand on the earth. Even after my skin is destroyed, yet from my flesh I shall see God; Whom I myself shall behold,…[Read more]
