Psalm 18:30-33
As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all those that trust in him.
For who is God save the LORD? or who is a rock save our God?
It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect.
He maketh my feet like hinds’ feet, and setteth me upon my high places. -

@perfectfifths it sure does!!! Thanks so much! Sorry I made you look it up… I’m actually in the middle of my very first novel (which I have written more than four chapters of :D)! I’m at 28,925 words and 65 pages, which is pretty exciting for me! Maybe I’ll actually finish it this time! 😛

Just curious… how long can a short story be before being considered a mini-book? (or whatever you would call that…) I enjoy writing short stories most and it would probably be good to get an idea of how long or short I should make them!

@stewie-plotter I saw on your profile that one of your interests is “rare poisonous plants”. Found that unique and oddly delightful 🙂 So…. what does a rare poisonous plant-lover do for fun regarding that hobby? Just curious…
-
Makes sense. Do you collect and/or press specimens?

@dragon-snapper Yep, that was @hope alright! She’s a pretty good writer. 😉 😀

I don’t have the time right now to answer all your questions, but I will give you a quick list of some of my favorite villains, and I’ll try to think of a reason why I love each one! 😉
Ledroptha Curtain from the Mysterious Benedict Society- he’s an absolute genius who fits almost no cliche other than being power-hungry, which is simply a fact…[Read more]

@daeus Hi, I know I’ve not been on in awhile but about an hour ago I shared a post and when I came back to check something it wasn’t there- it’s only showing up if I log in. Is it just processing, or did I do something wrong, or did the system goof? I did use the long tag list you made, is that messing it up or making it take extra time?
-
Oh, yeah, it does that. That number of tags will mark your post as spam. I’ll go fix that.
-
Hmm, it’s already showing up for me. Are you able to see it?
-
Okay, looks like it’s showing up now. It might have been something goofy with my computer, or it may have just taken a little longer. Thanks for checking into it!

Hey everyone! Just one more call throughout the Kingdom (along with the splendiferous help of @Daeus‘s tag) to see if any other KeePers will be at the Best of British Science and Bible Conference at the Creation Museum next Friday and Saturday! Just because I’ve not had time to be on here doesn’t mean I’ve forgotten about you all, and I look…[Read more]

@Daeus: amylynn9@live.com here you go! Tell her you’re a friend of Hannah and Julia R., with whom she has had dinner with and sent 19th century letters to, and maybe she won’t be weirded out. She’s a pretty easygoing person, so you should be fine. I’m sure she’d be happy to share your survey! And if she’s not, then, well, it was worth a shot.

@Daeus that last post was actually me, I made it from Hannah’s account by mistake. This is what happens when you share a computer. 😀

Hey, I’d like to start building up my summer reading list! Going on a looonnggg vacation and need a few recommendations. So: good books? I like fantasy and the like, not a big fan of romance or horror novels. @graciegirl @overcomer @r-j-wordsmith @Rachelle @Dragon-Snapper @northerner @perfectfifths @Ethryndal @Brandon-Miller @the-bean @Julia-R @Gid…[Read more]

Ooh ooh what about Tales of Goldstone Wood series by Anne Elizabeth Stengl. I really love the ones I’ve read of that and they’re really beautiful fantasy and allegory-ish too. Super well written.
-
The Youngest Templar Trilogy by Michael Spradlin (not this @spradlin)
The Black Arrow by Robert Louis Stevenson
All of the Ranger’s Apprentice books by John Flanagan (unless, of course, you’ve read those)
The Brotherband Chronicles by John Flanagan
In Search of Honor by Donnalynn Hess
The Westing Game by Ellen Raskin
The Hero’s Guide to Saving…[Read more]-
@dragon-snapper LOL. Ironically enough, my favorite genre to write is medieval fantasy.
-
@spradlin Haha! That is too funny!
-
-
-
The Space trilogy by Paul Regnier and A Time to Die trilogy by Nadine Brandes.
-
-
And another thought that I just had would be: Orphan’s Song (Gillian Bronte Adams), or A Wish Made of Glass (Ashlee Willis) – both fantasy. 🙂
-
Pendragon’s Heir by Suzannah Rowntree. Arthurian legend and historical fantasy plus time-travel. Also a great book in its own right. Be prepared for an authour who asks hard moral questions and doesn’t give easy answers. Has a bit of romance but even I (who can’t talk about romance at all without getting snarky) liked it.
-
-
I’ve got too many recommendations.
Ilyon Chronicles by Jaye L. Knight
Blades of Acktar series by Tricia Mingerink.
Finding Angel by Kat Heckenbach
Tales of Taelis series by Sarah Holman
Annabeth’s War and Captive of Raven Castle by Jessica Greyson.-
The Gammage Cup, by Carol Kendall
I just finished reading that a couple weeks ago, and can’t stop raving about it. Fantasy. No romance. No horror. Just a lovely, light read.
-
-
Ender’s Game by Orson Scott Card. More of a sci-fi than a fantasy, but it’s a must read. I recommend it to everyone.
Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard is fantastic, though if you get it you should probably get the sequel alongside it and spare yourself the suspense.
If you’ve never read Little Men (yes: men. not women) by Lousia May Alcott you need…[Read more]

Patrick W. Carr’s “The Staff and the Sword” trilogy was a really refreshing fantasy to me. =) Also “The Scarlet Pimpernel” (not fantasy) was really good.
-
Can’t wait to check some of these out!!! I will have lots to read this summer! Thanks, everyone! Oh, and I have read Johnny Tremain, but it’s been a *few* years, so thanks for mentioning it! I think I’ll go to my bookshelf and re-read it now!
-
I’m in the middle of reading Virals by Kathy Rieches (the original mind behind BONES)… it’s so, so good! I highly recommend it. Just throwing that out there in case you’re still needing some more reading material. 😉
