Hmmm, Alaric. Or maybe Alistair.

He’s my new friend.

@raxforge

WHAT???

@loopylin

OH MY GOODNESS IT’S SOOOOO CUTE!!!!!!!!!!😍😍😍 I love him!

@whalekeeper

That’s terrifying. Hopefully it was just an overly dramatic kid.

Celarent 

Celarent glowered at Mateo, stuffing his hands in his pockets to hide their shaking. “Fine.” He could usually keep his mouth shut and convince people to like him, but something about Mateo made him forget every one of his carefully rehearsed rules of human interaction. It was infuriating. Celarent straightened…[Read more]

Ryla

Ryla nodded uncertainly. Falling into something or someone seemed like a foreseeable consequence of walking backwards to her, but neither of them had been hurt so it didn’t matter. “Take two. They’re chocolate chip.” She handed Maverick her bag of cookies. “Do you typically walk backwards?”

@elishavet-pidyon

You have a good point. I always like it when books flip gender stereotypes without being weird about it. I read a book once where one of the MCs, a knight, enjoyed knitting. He was still a man, he just knit stuff.

@trailblazer

*shudders* Yeah, nothing short of a call from God could ever induce me to send my kids to public school. And my kids aren’t going to be allowed to date until they’re 16 either.

@whalekeeper

Are you okay???

The first stories I remember writing were 2nd grade assignments. In one, this group of ducks, Helen, Joy, Valentine, and Lulu, were at home being babysat by this really cool babysitter (I think her name was Lila, and she was both a police officer and a princess) who was taking them out to go toilet paper people’s houses. I’d just found out that…[Read more]

XD The second one reminds me of a time at co-op when I mentioned I hadn’t liked a book because I couldn’t connect to the characters, and this one guy just looked at me and said “Because they’re fictional.” He must lead a sad life.

@freed_and_redeemed

Congratulations of the Book 3 progress! I can’t wait, even though I haven’t been able to read Broken Shackles yet.  My library couldn’t purchase it for some reason and I’m broke, BUT I’m trying to get a job and that’s one of the first things I’ll buy when I have money. 🙂

@liberty

Great board!

@rae

First off, funny forum signature.

*bows* Thank you.

Second, what are the ages of your characters?

The character who knows she’s about to die is about 18, as is her best friend. Her grandfather is 70ish. Her grandfather and best friend are the only ones who know.

It also depends on if they’re Christians or not.

They are not at the moment. I s…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009

Ooh congratulations! I’m trying to get a job. I’ve applied at a Kroger, and I’m going to apply for an ice cream place later today or tomorrow. But yeah, I don’t have much free time as is, and that’s going to take what I do have. 🙁

Lilitu, what have you done????
