Oh King of the Golden hall! I have that in my clarinet sheet music book.
Oh I like your themes! I like themes of sacrifice in family too, I have a section of my book about a character who made a lot of sacrifices to adopt a little girl.
Ooh Swallowtail summer sounds really interesting!
In A Dream Come True, I played around a lot with…

Hey! Thanks for the welcome! My trilogy is my first real dabbling in fantasy so there are tons of cliches and tropes I have to fix but the overall theme is good, I think. 🙂 Here’s s quick synopsis:
Lana has lived in Wilson Falls for all of her twelve years, enjoying everything a close community of farming families brings. She’s…[Read more]

Glad you are doing better from Covid! I had it for awhile, not nearly as bad as you did though. I do remember deciding crawling was easier than walking though 😂 I was exhausted.
I’m thankful for Jesus forgiving us, me just being happier because I was low-key depressed (it still comes back sometimes but I’m doing better) And…[Read more]

Yay, another Tolkien nerd! Who’s your favorite character(s)?
I’m pretty excited to have finished a book myself! It’s only 27,000 words, so it’s more of a novella, but it’s the first longer thing I’ve finished! Rustic fantasy is basically non-magical fantasy, no Elves or wizards or dragons. So it’s similar to historical fiction from…[Read more]

I haven’t seen the LOTR movies either, because I’m also sensitive and I agree with you about the characters! From what I know, they completely misunderstood Eowyn. And Faramir. And they gave Elves pointed ears! Tolkien never said Elves had pointed ears! *takes a deep breath* Sorry about that, LOL.
Ooh, Screwtape Letters is…[Read more]

@erica
Thanks for starting this topic! No kidding, I was thinking about something like this myself! 🙂
Praise the Lord for healing you and your family!
@everyone
I’m thankful for hope. The Bible says that hope is an anchor for our souls, sure and steadfast. We all know the uncertainty of life and how things can change and become unstable very…[Read more]

Hello and nice to meet you!
What is your WIP about? I like non-magical fantasy too. 🙂
1. Definitely Elves!
2. My favorite author is J. R. R. Tolkien. I think he had dark hair, but in most of the pictures I’ve seen he has grayish-white hair. Interesting question! 😀
3. I would rather own a horse for life–they don’t breathe fire.…[Read more]

YES HERE I AM! 😀
Seriously? Questions from you? Like we haven’t known each other for what, our whole lives? XD
1. LOTR (It’s just one book, but if you count The Silmarillion and Unfinished Tales and all the History of Middle Earth, it’s a series, right?), the Roman Britain trilogy by Rosemary Sutcliff, and The Chronicles of Pry…[Read more]

I love your greeting! I’m not fluent enough in Quenya to reply, unfortunately. But thank you! 🙂
Your WIP sounds interesting! I’d be interested in reading it if you decide to post scenes or chapters or anything!
Nice to meet you!

I like your signature! Very true and encouraging.[/quote]
Thanks! It’s from one of my favorite authors, Bess Aldrich. I thought it was pretty relevant for the times we live in.
I stole it from Arwen . . . in “The Tale of Aragorn and Arwen” which is in the back of The Return of the King, I believe.
Yes! I “remember” now. At leas…[Read more]

The LOTR soundtrack is great! I like Concerning Hobbits too, but my favorites are The King of the Golden Hall and all the Rohan themes. (Big Eowyn fan here!)
Ooh, questions!
1. I like my character Ruby from Swallowtail Summer. She’s not at all like me, but she’s very interesting to learn about as I write her! I also like…[Read more]

AGH!!! I never sent in my reply!
You’re fine! 🙂
(English is such a confusing language, even for a native speaker. I can’t help but feel sorry for those speaking ESL. Seriously…)
I know, right? My Mom tells me to be grateful that I don’t have to learn it as a SL.
As for me Russian has turned out not quite as hard as I thought it would be,…

“Hi! I’m Carmen!” Carmen says with a smile, peeking over Everly’s shoulder at the girl. “Hey, you match Everly here with your sling! You could be sling buddies! Or sling friends… injury besties? I’m gonna have to work on that one…”

Lol your right 🤣 I’ve called her the wrong name. This is the first time I’ve ever written her, so it’s not ingrained in my head yet. It’s Everly.

It’s so great to have you here!!! 🙂
For one, I had no idea you’re learning five languages and that’s just insane! XD. Now I’m inspired to pick Latin back up 😉 Which language are you most fluent in right now?
