@theducktator Literally! (LOL)

also that’s cool, Bob sounds like he has a nice life.

hehe my brother called his pacifier “Ash” for some reason? He didn’t literally name it, he just said the word that way for some reason lol

My co-op notes were full of cute dinosaur characters giving their opinions on logic and Spanish.

oh also awesome…[Read more]

@trailblazer ahh ok

that makes sense lol

@stephie @trailblazer what’s all this about land mines????

@elishavet-pidyon cool! You’re a good artist.

My brother was just re-reading the books. They’re really good, aren’t they?

@power you’re welcome!

also, your words to highscribe are exactly three, not one.

@elishavet-pidyon oooh I like those!

oh, and what’s your profile pic? Kinda reminds me of the rabbits from The Green Ember…..

@rae @princesachronicle22 @beth-torres @jonas

Snake

The doors creaked open. Carrie and the alien-with-colors [I don’t think he knows her name] had attempted to bust through, but apparently the inhabitants of the castle didn’t mind opening it for them.

A rather strange decision….He was new to this whole kingdom-and-its-ruler thing, but even…[Read more]

@theducktator awesome character lol

@stephie I get that.

and yes characters can be really frustrating sometimes……ughhh…..

Sometimes, you wanna stab one of them, but then you realize he’s already been stabbed before by someone else, and that really takes the fun out of it.

(I’m kidding, I don’t stab people for fun. Don’t worry.)

oh, and since I apparently remembered the quote wrong and it’s actually two separate quotes, here’s the other half.

ok so I’m sure literally no one is gonna care, but…….

(here’s the source of my forum signature, which no one really asked for but whatever)

@loopylin ahh ok lol

@theducktator haha you distilled my whole ranting story down to a few words. I also write because I love it. My characters aren’t just characters to me, even though I didn’t create most of them. It’s almost like my mind is the world they live in, and I’m just writing down what I see them do all the time (especially when I make up elaborate Lego…[Read more]

@grcr

Thank you!! 😊😄

@everyone

Ok guys, you have to check out this article.

It’s a guest post on @gracie-j ’s blog and it’s really good!! It kinda has to do with what we’re talking about… sort of… okay, I don’t know, but it’s really good anyway and y’all should read it! XD

@whalekeeper

Right! You have similar themes, you just don’t press into the theme as directly.

Yeah, that’s a good way to put it.

@freed_and_redeemed

Now I feel like I probably write more emotion than most of y’all here😂

Which is not a bad thing! You write them really well 😊 And I feel like your books, at least what I’ve read of them, focus m…[Read more]

@freed_and_redeemed @loopylin @whalekeeper @trailblazer

Y’all have made some really good points!! I like hearing all your thoughts on this topic. I honestly feel like there’s not a one-size-fits-all answer to the topics of preachiness and theme. They differ for each genre, each story, each author, and each plan God has for the authors and the…[Read more]

forgive me for that bucket of nonsense, my brain is not working at 100%

@whalekeeper Why I write?

Um….

Well, I was horrible at writing anything. Fiction, nonfiction, you name it. My parents gave me a notebook and a book of prompt when I was 8, and after much fussing, I eventually sat down and wrote a story from the perspective of an electric eel. Then I wrote another one. Then another one. Then another. They were…[Read more]
