@hybridlore @elishavet-pidyon @ellette-giselle (In case you were wondering about Guy as well)

Here’s somewhat of a summary:

A man searching for redemption from his past…
 
A band of outlaws trying to make a difference…
 
A land twisted and poisoned by its cold-hearted rulers…
 

Guy is a young man living with a deep inner…

@ellette-giselle

True, true 😂

And it has a lot to do with–––––

You’re just going to leave me hanging? XD

Ahh, gotcha.

@ellette-giselle

Great section!! I think you pulled it off. It doesn’t feel too odd or confusing. We are told when the time is passing by, and given a few details, and then the winter is over.

and the other down Julian’s back while he lay sleeping.

😂😂😂 Talk about a rude awakening!

I’m interested in Leon’s backstory more now. He seems to be hidi…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Well, your moodboards did show that.

@ellette-giselle

Well, I’m guessing someone is going to get thrown into a colosseum. You have five guys there…some of them are bound to get hurt…or killed. It just has to happen.

@ellette-giselle

Ahhh!!! I remember now! Thanks for showing that verse to me. I’m all caught up. Finally. I’m hoping not to get behind in the future because then you have to read a lot more!!!

@liberty

Violin would be easier to learn coming from a pianist background! But yeah, I understand if you already have too many instruments.

I will say that it’s hardest in the beginning, probably. When you are just starting out, it’s hard to get it to sound good. But if you can stick with it for a few months, it gets better. 😉

@hybridlore

Nope. That was the one instrument I longed to play…but am pretty sure I won’t. It looks SO hard! Plus, I already play the piano and ukulele and am planning to pick up the guitar this year.

So, yes, playing the violin is one of my never-to-be-fulfilled-unless-God-intervenes dreams.

@ellette-giselle

“Why? Who’s going to read it?”

Wasn’t Julien journaling as well? Maybe he should say something else?

Leon was watching Julian with astonishment. Never had he heard him give such strong and quick responses in an argument like this.

This is by far the most interesting part I’ve read!!!! I love it!

Julian lunged and grabbed the stu…

@ellette-giselle

That section from Aelic reminds me so much of the “Winter King”! So far, I think his salvation story was the best! Well, there weren’t that many details concerning Roland and the others… anyway, that’s what I think.

@ellette-giselle

So, I’m assuming Roland lives with Rolf’s family?

@liberty

I do!

You don’t, do you?

@hybridlore

Thank you!

I see you have another girl with a violin. Do you play it?

@ellette-giselle

Yeah, it’s so weird because basically all they’re getting is the character’s personality and description in-book . . . also moodboards, which probably influenced it a lot xD But still, it’s cool seeing other people’s imaginations on paper.

@ellette-giselle

Right. Just make sure to give the readers some regular scenes too, so that there’s a blend between time jumps and regular speed. But you’ve already done this in the sections we’ve read, so just keep it up. 😜

@ellette-giselle

I imagine her with darker eyes and probably looking a little younger, but you did pretty well. 😁

@whalekeeper

I and my younger sister sometimes have telepathy moments too, so I think it’s more of a close sibling thing.

Hey, that happens to me and my younger sister as well! We’re almost 2 years apart, but spend a good amount of time together (as homeschoolers 😝). We’re always trying to say the same thing or making the same connections.

@linus-smallprint

Wow, your depiction of her personality was really cool to read. I hadn’t even thought about all those things together like that–like how she pauses to consider different things–but you have a good point.

Awesome, thank you!! I’m glad it doesn’t seem to be too much for you guys.
