That death made me madder than possibly any other death/supposed death in the books. It was sweet though, that each of the kids got to feel their father’s love in their own special way.
Peet though. Peet hurt.

I have no idea which group you are asking (if any. The general somebody is always an option), but you’re welcome to join in with anybody anytime. Technically an RP shouldn’t have to depend on groups.

I like this new story. A lot. Matthias sounds amazing. Charna sounds amazing.
I know it’s not a main WIP or anything, but I would like to hear more of this book whenever you have any other randomness to share. =)

I’m going to pop in and give my tidbit (because that’s so much more fun than homework).
1. Some scenes need to be short, some long, depending on what’s being delt with. This one may be short, but it’s a good length for the subject.
2. No? It just felt like a wrap up description of Mandin/a scene conclusion/transition to whatever was coming…[Read more]

My advice as a middle-grade writer and a YA reader:
1. Stick as much as possible to inner turmoil. Instead of focusing on how much the outward character is being damaged, focus on how the inner character is coping/struggling/whatever.
2. Instead of portraying each individual blow/whatever, gloss it all together into a simple…[Read more]

Concerned is an understatement.
I enjoyed this scene so much! I love that Riker helps him, if course, and that Leon accepts that help. I also really liked how specific yet clean the trigger and flashback were – it made sense, and conveyed the horror of the memory without giving me trauma.
There were two places where I would…[Read more]

Okay, I’m back to finish going through your scene.
What are your thoughts on Aaron/Joash? Do you feel bad for them at all, or do they just seem like villains?
I understand them and what they are doing. While they don’t seem like total villains to me (I see them in both a realistic and historical context), I hate what they are…[Read more]

Hi! I didn’t read through all your questions yet since I don’t have much time right now. I’ll try to come back and answer them. =)
Is Riker’s sudden panic/possible panic attack realistic? If not, does anyone that has experienced a panic attack have any pointers? (I’ve only been on the brink of one once…it was not fun&#…

Aww, thank you! I’m learning.
You guessed correctly! It’s Smalls as a youngling. I changed my profile pic in honor of Green Ember’s birthday back in December, but forgot to change it back. And now I like it. XD
Yes, they are wonderful books! It was actually Green Ember that made me want to write whole stories instead of random stuff…[Read more]

Aww, thanks! They were a lot of fun.
You guessed correctly. 😉 It’s a drawing I did of Jupiter Smalls as a youngling. (He might be my favorite character.) I swapped my profile pic in honor of Green Ember‘s birthday back in December, but forgot to change it back.

I am so excited. XD I made working covers for all three volumes of Heirs of Ashes. And found a really bad quality image of my current reference illustration for Viktor and Alyona.
My first one had reeaaalllyyy small ears….Now I should actually try to write that first volume….

Pastor Nikolai Aleksandr Smirnov and MGB Agent Peter Dimitri Kuznetsov together as the MCs of a novel would be fabulous…I’m getting ideas already…oh no XXD
What?! Another book? Oh dear. XD
A quick side note: did you intend Alesandr and Dimitri to be middle names or were you referring to patronymics (the father’s (or other…[Read more]

SD Smith quotes…
“Call me Master, child.”
“Yes Masterchild.”
“I’d go for Joe’s arm. He’s sensitive there and has to get it wrapped by the pretty doctors every day.”
“Hey!” Joe said “They make me. It’s not like I want to.”

Ooof. It’s so hard to pick a favorite character. XD Especially when I haven’t actually read the book book yet.
As you know, I do like Leon. He was my first favorite, when I first met them. He also reminds me of other characters I have long adored (Natan Israeli, Judah Ben-Hur). At times I don’t enjoy his arc very much,…[Read more]
