Historically, Advent is not about waiting for Christmas. It’s about waiting and preparing for Christ’s second coming, and it is a penitential season similar to Lent, for when He returns, he will not be a meek and mild baby in a manger, but a King coming to judge the earth. My dad says if you do Advent right,…[Read more]

Oooh, good question!

I’d say the fact that I don’t have to get published young, or that I have to publish the first book I ever wrote.

And it’s really only been recently that I finally let myself slow down and enjoy writing for the sake of writing instead trying to rush and get published before I graduate high school. It’s really neat and ama…[Read more]

@rae

I will!

(Oh dear.)

@whalekeeper

Yes I saw that! I posted it on another forum topic, but I can’t remember which. XD

@ellette-giselle

Wow, that’s crazy. But I like that as an idea to go off of. I probably won’t make it too drastic just bc I don’t want to take the story that direction, but that does spark some ideas.

Thank you!

@koshka

You can do this! It’s worth it. (plus, hey, we’re all in this thing too…writer’s are crazy)

Aww, thanks girl!!

I’ve…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

Yep!

I suppose we could. I’m preoccupied today and tomorrow at least, but anyone can do it.

@rae @keilah-h

I will be on a week long vacation starting tomorrow. I am not sure how much of an internet connection there will be. But please continue when you feel up to it! If I do not reply within 24 hours, assume I’m out of reach.

On the bright side, it’s a quiet beach house and I’ll surely have time to write all day.

@linus-smallprint

Yup. Some people who attend my church fell into the Occult before they became Christians, and they blame it on Narnia.

Oh! Well. All the more to my point. There are book series that I, also, try not to reference in front of others too often because it makes them uncomfortable.

@hybridlore

Yesss, I love writing little kids. 🥰😂

@savannah_grace2009

Awww, girl that makes me so happyyyy 😂❤️❤️

@theducktator

Aww, that sounds so fun!! Those kinds of elevators are literally the besttt 😎

Heya, guys? Just want to point out the moderators were active over the past day or so. And I think I know what they were fixing. There’s a new “newest member.” Maybe they fixed the issue with making new accounts!

@linus-smallprint

Does your sister have an account now? If she doesn’t – potentially try requesting again?

@esther-c

I’m worried that I’m sending little messages that this sin really isn’t so bad or evil.

I really don’t think you have to worry about this unless the MC doesn’t face consequences.

Every MC lives with internalized beliefs, some right and some wrong, and if you’re telling the story from the MC’s perspective – they’re not exactly going…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Your advice is so so helpful!!

And it drew attention to a weaker part of my book—my FMC identifying the lie she’s been believing and accepting the truth. That turn-around moment is a part I’m still working on, so you pointing that out is awesome. I think right now she’s just been living this lie without experiencing any consequ…[Read more]

And a meme about my project for good measure. It’s too accurate to not make. XD

I thiiink this is just a me thing but I made it anyway.

@ellette-giselle

Third is most relatable to me. XD

So, I’m pretty much done with this cold, but now there is a stomach bug in the house. (I haven’t caught it yet thankfully) It’s DECEMBER and we haven’t spent a single month with no illnesses all year. I lost track of the number of illnesses we’ve had at around 7 or 8 in July, and I’ve had at least 3 since then, and there have been others I’ve…[Read more]

Everyone else: Authors aren’t really like that last meme.

Me: *threatens to kill my sister’s favorite character if she won’t listen to me rant about my newest idea*
