Okay…. I’m afraid I’m not sure which one that was….. Does your real name start with a “J” or an “L”

I sent out so many test emails that I lost track of who was who! lolololol. So sorry!

@ellette-giselle Sure! I think you have my email from my attempt to join the google meet

@linus-smallprint

huh. I find that so interesting that everyone likes this book better.

@the_lost-journal

Hello, Hello

@linus-smallprint

Well, thank you all the same.

The Veil of Night as always been my least favorite of the four, but most people tend to like it better then LTBL. I don’t remember if I asked you this, but since you’ve read both of them straight through now, which do you like best?

@linus-smallprint

awesome. I can’t wait!

I really can’t believe that you take the time to reread the whole book! Thank you so much!

@linus-smallprint

Am I still good to start the next book in February?

@hybridlore

You’ve read dust? I read about three chapters, but I haven’t been able to get my hands on the full thing. How is it?

@hybridlore

I would like to, but my week is looking pretty crammed. I think it might be better to skip this one and do next week. (Time got crowded with unplanned doctor’s visits after I was injured.)

So sorry! I hope I’m not letting anyone down!

@theducktator

Yes…. if I can find any.

@stephie

Cool! Glad I was making any sense.

@loopylin

Hey, my family is going up to Moscow in February. Would you be interested in trying to meet?

@rae

Okay! Neat!

@ellette-giselle @hybridlore

well, you got closer than some people do XD

It’s pronounced eyesuh-la. Hopefully that makes sense. Some places will say it’s pronounced with an “ee” sound on the end instead of the “la” but I specifically know my Oma (who was actually my great grandmother and not my grandmother but she always wanted us to call her…[Read more]

@hybridlore

I don’t know where the emphasis is on my name. Everyone just kinda lets it flow without much emphasis. So yeah, not really sure where it is…… lolololol

@rae

Hmm, like Liesl, but without the “L”

@ellette-giselle

I’ve been pronouncing your last name wrong (I’ve treated the /G/ as /G/ instead of /J/), but I think I’ve pronounced your first name right. YAY!

People mess up my last name a lot. Either they see it in writing and pronounce it wrong or they know how to pronounce it but can’t spell it. I have a friend who I’ve known since I was…[Read more]

@rae

Oh okay, that makes sense. I like that look a lot. I think I have a few books where the artist does cross hatch with a pen and then fills in with watercolor.

Okay, well, I love your realistic type style, if you’re willing to do that. Would you be willing to draw Werner? He’s a young German doctor, dark hair, dark eyes, tall and slender.…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

wow! That’s so cool! Is it lines, Xs dots? Like what makes cross hatch “cross hatch” If that makes sense?

It’s straight lines that often cross each other at different angles. The more lines, the darker the shadow.

Here’s a picture of some balls drawn in a couple cross-hatch styles compared to other drawing techniques (I didn’…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

That’s how they said it when I lived in Italy.

EhL-EH-T   JHih-ZEHL

If that helps. Those pronunciation things never made sense to me.
