Sounds fun! I’ve never read any dystopian (it tends to be a dark and morbid genre, two things I avoid in literature), but if I ever do I’ll have to look into your book first. Congratulations on The Reflections!

Ooo, y’alls’ characters sound awesome!
(Uh, Elishavet, I was totally seeing William with blond hair blue eyes. The name makes me think Saxon [even though it’s Norman])
So, here is aÂ

Hi, and pleased to meet you!
Persuasion is my absolute favorite J. A. novel. Yes, I like it better than Pride and Prejudice. Ann always seemed to me to have a much stronger true character than Elizabeth. I like her other books, but that one…

Yeah, the characters are really fun. (By the way, I love the part in the end where the book offhandedly mentions his later use for the ring to avoid unwanted visitors. XD)
Sometime I’ll read them too. Whenever sometime is.
I also have trouble being satisfied with a cover idea(hopefully that just means I haven’t found the right…[Read more]

Poor Amy! I don’t know why, but every time I think about her artist talent, the foot and plaster incident comes to mind. When I first read LW I was more like Jo, but now I don’t line up with any of them really. *Shrug* Jo’s lines were my favorite part of the book.
Thank you from my former self. She would have been thrilled to…[Read more]

Ok, sorry it’s taken a while for me to respond. Every time I’d sit down to write my reply, something (or most likely somebody) would call me away. Ugh!
Anyway, I’m back. (And it wasn’t too long of an absence)
Yes, they can be very stubborn, and thanks!
Oooh, a duology does sound fun. And that is really exciting! One of my series…[Read more]

Ooo, that would be awesome! My father has gone overseas as a missionary’s assistant, and I’m heard they’re beautiful.
So, my signature is sort of a joke. Literally translated it means: “I speak English. Glorify God!” (Or thank God as the context here implies).

Ugh, yes. That is one sad thing about being American; we never had much of a medieval age. Of course, we also never had Roman occupation so there is that. =]
Ah yes Emma. (How did I forget about her?) She does become a side MC in the last book. S. D. Smith did a good job with his characters.
Hmm, I think I would also like a…[Read more]

For writing, I prefer researching earlier centuries such as the 9th-15th. Once firearms enter the scene I lose much of my interest. However, I do like researching and recreating clothing from the Victorian age.
Helmer, Whitby, Harmony, and Wilfred. I do like the MCs, especially Heather, but some of those side characters are…[Read more]

Tag me if you post it on KP! My favorite character was always Beth, but Jo definitely comes next, and Laurie’s somewhere up there too. Jane Eyre is interesting. Some of my family love it, and I enjoyed it, but it’s not one of my favorites.
No trouble worth mentioning. Actually, thank you for a good laugh. I drew this two years…[Read more]

Thanks! and no, I haven’t written a series or a novel for that matter (I have attempted novels but couldn’t get them to tell me their plots. Finally, I have found some more honest books. Hopefully.).
Have you written any series and/or novels?
Evren and L sound like fun characters! I once tried to base a character off myself, but…[Read more]

Hello! I’m Elishavet (And a bit late, sorry.). It’s good to meet you, and welcome to the forum!
You like G. K. Chesterton? His essays or his books? I love his essays, especially Twelve Men, The Dragon’s Grandmother, and the one about his pockets (the latter I quote not unfrequently.).
Anyway…. Questions.

Hello, I am Koshka, a somewhat prolific, if cautious, devourer of books, historical enthusiast, and general homeschooler.

Oooh, the first draft will be done soon? That’s so exciting! (I hope to have two of mine plotted out by the end of this month. The first books in two separate series.)
Evren or L, you say? Those are fascinating names. What are these different reasons? (If it’s shareable. I understand if not.)

Imagine a girl somewhere between 14 – 18 years of age, somewhere between this world and a million others. Someone for whom “reality” is curiously like a mirror, reflecting a reality even more real and dangerous and beautiful than itself.Â
You might end up with me.

I have considered it, but since nothing I’ve written has reached publication, I never have.
Most of my pen name ideas are nerdy distortions of my real name (like Elishavet Pidyon, for instance) whereof I loved the meaning.
Why? Well, I don’t know where God wants me to go or do, and I’d rather not have my name out there, easily…[Read more]

Aw man, death scenes for our beloved characters are always like a punch in the gut. *sobs* I have some pretty heartwrenching deaths in the Life of Sacrifice series. We writers really are crazy. XD

Yay!
Ugh, especially when you know about a specific topic which isn’t all that hard to research. One which some authors consistently include the modern idea of it when it wasn’t like that at all! (Ugh!)
Hmm, so maybe something to do with the themes.
