Well . . . ahem . . . I sort of kind of saw that “It was Rolf.” before I read the section, since I had to scroll down to the bottom of the email to get to Kingdom Pen.

But, no, I don’t think I would have. I was still a little surprised, because I didn’t realize Quayid was going to be Rolf. But I knew someone was going to be…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Rolf!!! 😁

Wow, I really liked that section. That might have been my favorite part so far. I love Ian. He’s the best.

(And poor Albee, but I have a feeling he’s going to seek God out now that Leon’s gone…?)

Pax

@the_lost-journal

Phew, so glad it didn’t actually happened. No worries! I’ll continue to pray for her.

@the_lost-journal

No worries! That’s still serious and important and I’ll keep praying 🙏🏻🫶🏻

@the_lost-journal

No need to apologize. You are doing this for us, and you can take as long as you wish!

😊💛

@linus-smallprint

Yeah. I didn’t think it was realistic for her to be able to keep disappearing without her family knowing.

@ellette-giselle

Leon!!! I didn’t think you would kill him!!

I didn’t feel like the overseers punishing Leon instead of Ian was unrealistic. However, I’m starting to wonder what Ian did to deserve it. I know they’d had their eyes on him, but all he did was trip, right?

Julian’s scene was good too. I liked how it started raining and they were…[Read more]

@theshadow

Awesome, thanks!

@linus-smallprint

Great, thank you!! What made you guess that? You’re right xD

@the_lost-journal

Oh no, I’m so sorry. Praying for them 🙏

@the_lost-journal
Oh my goodness! 🫢 I can’t believe it… She’ll be in my prayers. 😥😥💕💕

@the_lost-journal

Heh heh…. no problem. About that. I’ve just gotten back to working on those since I was taking a long break from everything… they should be done pretty soon. 😅🙂 Sorry…

@ellette-giselle

Actually, that scene with Leon was inspired by a true account I read! Wonder if it’s the same one?

Well, the one that touched me was in a movie. Maybe you’ve heard of it? “The War to End all Wars”? It’s a WW2 film.

Most of my answers would depend.

In Burne, the world of The Purple Eyed? Yeah, as long as I stay out of Needslight in Fremir, Burne. Needslight is a huge hood residential area, I often compare it to Chicago (and a few other places that seem dangerous). I’m pretty scared of hood areas anyway so I’d probably live far away from there… and Fremi…[Read more]

I love all the art, guys!!! It all looks great!!! 😃💛💛💛

@ellette-giselle

“Lord, all that’s down there is trouble. Nothing good happens out here after dark. I’m going home.”

*grin* Yup. That never works for an excuse!

Go now, and sin no more,

Perfect!

The whip tore into his back again and Leon felt himself jerk with the force of the blow. Oh God, forgive them!

Oh. WOW. I love this scene! Not because…[Read more]

@theducktator

Whattttt

That’s crazyyyy!

@ellette-giselle @keilah-h

Yeah, that makes sense. I’ve read the Ilyon Chronicles, which kind of has a similar vibe to your story’s time period and world, and one of the side characters (Christian) married a former prostitute after she became a believer. So, maybe it kind of reminded me of that, I don’t know.

@ellette-giselle

Yep lol.

Yeah, that makes sense. I couldn’t remember if it was an area he went through often or not.

Gotcha. Yeah, I get that. I was wondering if she might become a love interest for Julian, but if not, it’s probably better not to involve her too much.
