Ben Gunn and Flare – Group 1, Everstrand edge
As soon as Flare realized he was on the ground, he was up again ready to fight. Ben was a little slower but got up quickly. All the Ironwalkers were still on the ground, but they started to get up.
“Quick, back to the roof.” T…[Read more]

So you wouldn’t write about death in any circumstance because it might offend people?
Not necessarily, it is okay to write about death in some senses, but in this case, I can’t see anything good coming from writing about death right now. If I need to offend people, I will. But I don’t see a need.
Do you find it unlikable to t…

Baron (Brutus)—with group 1, Elderstrand edge
Brutus sighed. Why did he even care? Here his body was tearing itself apart and he wanted to go back to help Flare and Ben and the boy.
Mustering his strength, Brutus got back up from where he lay, gritting his teeth as he…[Read more]

Ben Gunn and Flare – Group 1, Everstrand edge
Flare looked down from the roof top at the kid who just became unconscious as Ironwalkers surrounded him. He drew his sword.

@whalekeeper In my mind, I see it as:
Protagonist–The main character or character whose arc we’re following. The POV character in a first-person story.
Hero–Subtype of protagonist. Usually someone with a sense of good and evil, a person with moral standards they won’t break unless in an extreme situation, a person worth emulating at least by…[Read more]

MineralizedWritings posted an update 1 year, 10 months ago
One day, I hope to fly a million miles away. Where painful memories are far away, and the fresh beach breeze covers my dry skin. The sea would lap over me, tugging at my hair, and perhaps I would feel at home. The strangeness of my new world would comfort me from the horrors of the one past. I’d bring you with me if I could, but I’m not sure you…[Read more]

(Come to think of it, if you enjoyed this snippet of my worldbuilding you might enjoy my full on WIP I “borrowed” these characters for, I don’t think I’ve ever shown it to you specifically. It’s a junkpile but it’s at least a semi-coherent story and much cleaner than many works I’ve caught glimpses of in the fandom.)
I’m game! I think…[Read more]

Awesome!! Thank you for the update! It’s good to hear that things are going well, even if there have been many tears involved (that just means its a good book, right?). Hope your characters aren’t giving you too much pain. XD
-
@koshka Thank you! :3 And yes, many tears involved XD (but yesss. I personally love books that make me cry😆). Pffffffft they always are: it’s just a given by this point🙄 I’d say Leon more than Riker in Book #2 tho, but then again, they’ve both broken me🫠

Thank you so much for the update!
Oh now I really can’t wait! Reading the impactful stories is so, so good. I’ve written a few of those books that really make me cry, but it’s often those books that end up having the most beautiful message and I am the most excited to let others read. So I really can’t wait! Do you have a tentative release date…[Read more]-
@ellette-giselle I’m so glad you’re excited!! :3 And I’m certainly hoping it’s impactful💜
Hmmmm…no exact release date, as everything depends on getting some final steps done, including (but not limited to): finalizing a blurb/cover, getting it up on Amazon and getting a proof copy to look over (which the copy could take up to 2 weeks for me to…[Read more]-

Awesome!! I’m so excited for you!!! I can’t wait!! ✨
I’m not sure if you’ve answered this before, but I was wondering why you chose self-publishing over traditional? I have nothing against it of course, I’m just curious. 😊-
@esther-c Tysm, girl! <3
I went with self-publishing for a few reasons.
1. To have complete control over my novels, what I'm writing, etc.
2. To get more of an income from it (publishers take a LOT of the money when you publish your book simply bc of the agreement and the fact that they do most of the work).
3. Often, publishers make you sign a…[Read more]-
Ok, interesting! Yeah, that does answer my question! 😊 I’ve considered self-publishing, but I think I’m gonna go with traditional. At least that’s what I’ve been thinking about and drawn to lately. Your reasoning totally makes sense though! <3
-
OH! And I wanted to let you know, I talked to someone who’s done publishing through Amazon and she says that you an get replacement copies if they mess up the formatting and send out the messed up books to people. I’m not exactly sure all the details and how that works with shipping or refunds, but I can talk to her again and get the info for you…[Read more]
-
@esther-c Best of luck to you with traditional publishing!💜
and wellllllll Amazon messed up the formatting for the actual document, so a replacement would (first come out of my pocket, Amazon doesn’t pay for replacements) but would be just as messed up anyhow simply bc the document itself was messed up because I didn’t know that Amazon’s paid…[Read more]-

Brutus sighed. “If he calls for help, I will not hesitate to answer, but you must all go on. He is fighting so you can get a head start running, don’t waste it. I’m staying here to make sure he’s alright.”
