still very confused…. Washing soap?

Really? It seemed Daniel’s friends are referred to by their Babylonian names, but maybe that is just in the book of Daniel. Huh. I guess the most famous stuff is what ends up sticking around more.

I can check my notes again, but when I did an indeph study into Daniel I’m almost positive the o…[Read more]

@jonas I’d love to join! I do have a summer job (lunch break rn), so I’m not sure how much time and energy I’ll actually have, but I would really love to have other people pushing me to get writing done.

I’ll have a hard time picking which story to work on though.

@theducktator

Lolololol. *high five*

@linus-smallprint

Thank you!

I spent at least an hour cleaning soap

what?!

Okay. Where are all those ladies and older people hiding?

In the olden days girls didn’t really do things on their own. In Roman culture it was actually inappropriate for a young woman to be on the streets alone. Plus, they were considered as property of their father…[Read more]

@hybridlore

Absolutely.

I’ll see if I have time. I have rowing to do, plus I’m looking into getting a job this summer as well as taking the first steps to getting my driver’s permit since I’m turning 16 end of July and would like to get my permit as soon as possible. If I have time, I’d be interested!

Not sure what I’d write yet though…

@jonas

This sounds like a cool idea. I don’t write very orthodox, so I won’t have an outline. (just character outlines). I’m also not sure if I’m sharing my current novels on line for marketing purposes. (They’ll be releasing this summer, starting with the first one later this month)

But I’d sure be willing to breathe down anyone’s neck who…[Read more]

NEXT SECTION!!!

Two days later, Leon was walking home from visiting the Krügers in the late evening. He was nearly home when someone called out, “You there, what’s your business?”

Leon turned around and saw a young soldier lean…

@esther-c

Hiiii Esther! I just saw this!!!
I have a critique for Easton’s character arc.

You’ve been having him do all these things for Tyler, and having him trying to encourage Tyler.

Do you mean to have him come off as kind of distant and cold? like Shadow said, he feels really impersonal.

What I mean is, in your book are you trying to show…[Read more]

I was gonna give people a chance to catch up while I busy myself shooting and poor characters and dumping them out of airplanes……. but I think I’ll post the next section now.

@rae

You should make a photo copy of the sketch and try out the colors you have in your mind on that, and if you like it, then go for it, but if not, you have the backup. That’s what I always do. I never color the original, I like to keep a backup. Plus, colored pencils tend to smear when mixed with graphite.

@whalekeeper

YES!!! DO!!!

The Protector—Gabriel

“Yes, my birthmarks aren’t a mental illness, but that doesn’t mean that people don’t hate me, or judge me. If I was not the Protector, if I didn’t wear the mask, if I didn’t hide the birthmarks, I would have been killed by the people I protect everyday.” Gabriel clears his throat again, v…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings Oh gross I didn’t know they could be that bad. I used to pick up slugs all the time as a kid to take them out of the garden. (I washed my hands afterwards of course.)

@whalekeeper

Is Marcel here? Because if he is, he might get pelted with apologies from Chase

@loopylin @ellette-giselle @whalekeeper

Well, I guess it’s a go for finalizing the sketch and then coloring it. I have a few coloring choices I’m deciding on. I might add a starry backdrop, and make his hair silver, or just do like it’s daytime. That’s why the top part of the page is devoid of anything at the moment.

Tbh, after an experience…[Read more]

@whalekeeper @the_lost-journal

The Protector—Gabriel

“So it wasn’t a flippant reason after all. That’s surprising.” Gabriel’s voice sounds young again. His hand moves towards his own mask, hesitates, then slightly dislodges it. A small sliver of skin showing a small cluster of strange birthmarks on his jaw, could be seen. He shows them to C…[Read more]

@rae

WOW!!!!!! So good! The expression!!!!!! That is SO Baron!! Yes, this is perfect!

@whalekeeper

Real.
Ok but actually that’s part of how I got diagnosed with autism. I was writing Ellie so much and realizing how much I related to her, and at the same time noticing how many autistic traits she had. So I started getting suspicious and researching it and then I finally asked my doctor and now here I am.

@rae that’s cool! That’s an impressive side profile. I’ve been struggling with those lately. I like the wind going through his hair.

@the_lost-journal

Cool. I should research bpd and ptsd sometime. I don’t know much about them.

I’m now realizing I can’t think of any of my characters who don’t have any mental thingys, lol. Lois and Liko are probably normal? Idk
