How did you publish your book? Was it traditional, hybrid, self-published? I don’t suppose you could explain your process? I’m really interested cause my first book is nearly ready for publication😁.

@everyone

Sorry for the late reply, I’ve had a busy couple of days.

@elishavet-pidyon

That picture is gorgeous! So cute! You’re a really good artist.😊 And I love Trumpkin.

@keilah-h

I love your main character’s name. I feel like the cat is an interesting character …😁 And I love that you have a character called Nyx too!

@koshka

Thanks!

I love your titles! And your books sound cool — I love the fact you have this sibling aspect in 1 and 3😊. Nothing better than some good sibling banter and play offs. A question — are your books about actual animals, or hybrid human-animal type beings, or about humans who are part of a group that call themselves animals?

My sto…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon Thanks!

All your stories sound cool — I love the sound of the feel in the first one; the second, I just love it in general, it sounds like the sort of story I love to write and read😊; the third — I don’t normally read animal stories, but yours sounds quite fun — have you read the Green Ember? That’s a good series for someone w…[Read more]

@keilah-h You should end it the way you feel is the best — and sometimes you’ll change your mind😉. I once changed the true identity of an entire character because I decided it would be more emotionally impactful if he wasn’t related to someone else.

That said, the idea of her having to rescue her father on her own does sound interesting (I love…[Read more]

@keilah-h I’d never heard the word wyverns before — I’ll have to get up with the dragon lore. I love How to Train Your Dragon, but I’ve forgot which one was Stormfly. Was that Astrid’s dragon?

MandaloreWings sound cool😁

Are there any BabyYodaWings to go with a very certain type of MandaloreWing?

@morgan

Such a good movie! And Eagons sound cool — but I thought that a cross between a lion and and eagle was a griffin? But we should totally rename them …😁

@keilah-h

No … I can’t see it, sorry

I’ve got most of my ideas from titles. Of books within whatever book I’m currently writing.

It all started when in a fan fic I was doing, this character was binging a series called ‘The Prince of WalfKlau.’ One day, I just started wondering what The Prince of WalfKlau was about. And now I have a 5 book series about it😂.

And then, within that, t…[Read more]

@keilah-h

“Hello there.”

Nice😁 What type is a Singeprime? Also, you’ve made me super curious about the MandaloreWing now.😄

Also, I think the Stewjon Four-Wing is my favourite type of Star Wars dragon — cause what’s not to like?

@elishavet-pidyon

Like, that explains all my foreign words and phases? That could be a good idea😊…

@elishavet-pidyon

The Horse and His Boy is my favourite Narnia book😊.

Yeah, I haven’t learnt the Hebrew letters, but that ‘cha’ sound is really hard to make. Still, I like the feel it gives my language😁. Here’s a sample:

“Ûne li’hatevet Férījinar Sechol.”

(translation: I don’t speak Férījinarian (language))

“Ira? Hûsī hovet Ira?”

(translatio…[Read more]

@keilah-h

I’ll keep that in mind😉 *Resolves to get first five books out of library*

@elishavet-pidyon

Thanks! I never knew that, about the early Slav federation. That’s so neat you’re using it in your book!😃

@keilah-h Brothers, am I right?😂 S’fine, my older brother loves to tease me about the name I made up in a Paper Mario fan fic of mine for a technological sphere that could be used like a super computer to destroy every world in the multi-world existence of my story — I called it…

DRUMROLL …

The S.D. Sphere.

Short of self-destruction sphere.…[Read more]

@keilah-h Thanks! I did see it, now you’re making me think I’ll have to try the Wings of Fire series😁

@koshka Thanks! That’s cool!

@elishavet-pidyon

The û? Do you know which culture it comes from? Also, that’s epic you’re learning Hebrew!😃 I watched some beginners’ videos to learn the structure — in terms of it being an SVO language, like English. Unlike my main kingdom’s language, which is an SOV language, like Japanese.

I like the mix of cultures you’re using for Eirtan!…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12 Lol.😂 Yeah, I always spoil everything to both my little sister, my big sister, and my big brother — and then pester them with feedback on any new plot developments I’ve thought of.😂

@anatra23 Yes, I’m doing a round of beta reading for it now, and then I’ll probably do another couple of editing passes, maybe one more round of beta readers, before trying to pitch it to agents. It’s 180k words, though, so I’m gonna have to be creative and precise in order to sell them on it — YA fantasy isn’t normally that long&#x1f60…[Read more]
