Aww thanks!  I’m really glad to hear that I was able to accurately convey that – both in my writing and in my art!  Idk exactly what I would describe it as, like I can definitely put a finger on it but idk if I can name it?

…soft brat?

Idk, Basil is just…very Basil XD

Also, I didn’t know you’re an artist too!  Are you a digital or traditional painter?

I’m looking forward to seeing Jade!

Yeah…I feel like it’s hard because writers tend to fall outside of social norms to some degree?  I’ve always had a hard time fitting in, but it especially hurts in Christian settings tbh.  It’s just so hard to find other creatives with similar values, and that’s one reason why SE has just been such a huge blessing!  I also just love that it’s a genuinely strong and mature Christian community.  It’s not just Christian in name only – there’s a whole community of dedicated believers who want to talk about faith and how that plays into our writing, and it’s just so healthy and honestly challenging (in a good way).  Idk about you, but SE has really challenged me to dig deep into my values, what I believe, how I uphold my Christian values in my writing, and how to articulate those (both to people here and in my writing!)

Also I just love all of these little niches in the community – each group feels like it has such a distinct culture, and you really get to grow alongside an established group 🙂
