Hi, Hope!

Okay, I love what you said: “I like to have ‘true love’ more along the lines of one person giving their life for another rather than someone kissing the first pretty girl they come across in the forest.”

The second half made me laugh. But it’s so true!

Man, almost everybody seems to have chickens. I love chickens. Not only eating…[Read more]

Ha! You are so punny! 😀

Man, I can relate to so much of what you’ve said. Especially the thing about the fascination with farms.

Also, the love-hate relationship with the violin. It’s my favorite to play, but it’s oh-so-difficult. Just work with me, vibrato, will you?? Or maybe some position work? Woo, fun stuff that I really should be…[Read more]

Hullo, Jada!!

Love your name! Keep on writing! (as I give advice I need myself…) I know that the love of writing grows when you actually do it, and improvement is inevitable. (that’s a good thing!) 😉

Wait. We’re all tacos now??
YES.
One of two life goals achieved…
Except…now I can’t eat tacos (my, like, utmost favorite food)…or I’ll be labeled a tacannibal. Ugh.

Ah man, it’s still cool that you got to try it on! “I was burdened with glorious helmet.” Haha 😛 that’s great.

Huh, your book sounds intriguing! Congratulations on finishing your first draft!! That is a fabulous accomplishment! 81k is a good size!!

I’m working on my superhero series. I haven’t written a whole lot this summer, much to my…[Read more]

I know!!! They’re like a kangaroo mixed with a rabbit and a pig and they’re just adorable.

That’s so cool! I want to go to an animal auction!!

Wow, that’s such a cool story, Sarah!! 😀 I love it!

Sarah, I’ve been working on teaching myself Swahili over the last year, but I haven’t practiced a whole lot this summer. I can say ‘Hello, my name is Rachel’, a variety of colors, good morning/good night, hello, goodbye, and random vocabulary words. So not very many sentences or questions yet.

Yes! I definitely recommend her books! Her older…[Read more]

Aww more Elsie. 🙁 I’ve never owned a bird! We’ve had dogs, a cat, a gomdfiah, a mouse, and two turtles over my years.
Klassen’s books are set around the same time as Jane Austrn’s. So the Regrncy eraish. They are so good. My favorite is The Apothecary’s Daughter.
Hujambo is hello in Swahili! 😀

Man! An opera on the book of Job?? That’s crazy! Did y’all perform it? I don’t think my brothers would ever agree to something like that… 😉

Aww! Those names are adorable! So cute. <3

Hmm…my favorite animal. I really like aardvarks and horses. Aardvarks are just hilarious, I don’t know.

Are goats your favorite animal or just your favorite animal that y’all have? 😉

Shoot! Those sound intriguing! What’s the title of the fifth? Where is it published? 😀

Man, those are some crazy unique animals. You should add an aardvark to the mix. I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a guinea fowl…

Yup, I do! I self-published the first book (a bit too soon, may I add). My mom and I are slowly going back over it and it will…[Read more]

Right back at you!

Ah man. I want a farm. 😉 I like chickens. They’re fun to watch. And goats. :3 What are their names?

I have two dogs. A dachshund named Pippin and a beagle named Gracie Lou.

Oh cool! What are their names?

Hmm…favorite genre. I’d have to say I’m leaning towards historical fiction as well. I love me some Julie Klassen books.
But as far as writing goes…that’s widespread.

I just have two dogs. One is a beagle named Gracie Lou and the other is a dachshund named Pippin. 😀 Do you have animals?

Heyo Rowena!

Wow…five completed books. Have you published any of them? What are they about? One last question…what kinds of animals do you have? 🙂
