Some.

Not fluently.

That’s still so cool! I learned a few words from Dolingo…hardly worth anything now, though. My father, however, can speak a little since he lived there for three years as a soldier in the U.S. Army.

Oooo, you want to beta read it?!?! Hmmmmm.

Oh yes!

Okay. Keep this hush hush both of you, but….. well, F…

I agree with what hybrid and highscribe said. Definitely consider the length and genre of your book first. If your novel is only going to be 60-70k, I would definitely hesitate adding more POV characters cuz then they each only get 10-15k each and that’s really not a lot in the big scheme of things.

Also consider if each c…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

yes!! A girl after my own heart! lol. I am German, so this is really close to me.

Do you speak German?

YES!! I’m just waiting for it to come out!!!

I know!!!

oh I’d love to read it if he’d let me! Do you want to post it here, or do you want my email?

I can post it here.  @freed_and_redeemed You can read it as well! I’d love to hea…[Read more]

the 20s really marked the beginning of people turning away from traditional values, something the USA tried to go back to in the 50s before all fell apart in the 60s…and we’ve just gone downhill from there🤷🏻‍♀️

Better in some ways, a whole lot worse in others.

@whalekeeper

Hiiii 👋🏻 So, I will first say that a lot of my research has been sporadic or else focused on a single specific topic, so I honestly don’t remember a lot of sources I used for a lot of research by this point XD

And most of my research is focused on WW2😅

But each of the decades were really marked by specific things:

The 1910s was…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle I love that idea too!! 🥰

@theducktator

It really depends. Does each MC have their own POV? How long is the series, and what genre is it? Typically a long, multi-book series will have plenty of characters, while a standalone may only have room for a few. (However, Gordon Korman is a big exception to this rule. He writes mostly standalone contemporary MG fiction, but he…[Read more]

@whalekeeper I love that!!! <3

HEY!!!

And yes, Liberty, I have written 2 novels with Leon/Riker as the MCs. The Broken and Redeemed Trilogy is solely theirs.

Book 1 is out already and has been published since July this year, and the 2nd one will (HOPEFULLY…we’ll just have to see😅) be released…[Read more]

@theducktator

Thanks!! <3 :))

@whalekeeper

Oh dear, I love studying history, but I normally don’t go out of my way to find big books about it 😂 But I’ll do some looking and see if I can find anything that you might find helpful. :))

@freed_and_redeemed

You’re already written 2 books with Leon and Riker?

@ellette-giselle

I’d love to hear any thoughts or questions, and if you want to see the other characters I’d love to send them!

Yes, yes, YES!
