I’ve never read To Kill A Mockingbird but it’s on my to-read list! BTW is that you in your profile picture? Cause if it is you, wherever you are looks super cool. Let me take a shot in the dark… is it somewhere in South America maybe??? 😀

@r-j-karas

YAY!!! More friendses…I wants them, I needsss them…(Sorry, I don’t know why I starting talking like Gollum…please ignore that. XD)

I’ll go check out that thread…thank you!

Thanks! (Funny fact…I’ve actually had like four babies named after me. The parents heard my name and were like “so cool” and named their kid that. I don’t think I’d wanna use that method for naming my kids…but hey, whatever. 😀)

Ohhh, I really like your name!! This is really funny, but your name would fit into one of my stories I’m working on! 🤣  Now, should we move on to middle names??? Seriously, though, my middle name is Ruth…that’s Hebrew too. This is funny. 😀😀😀 What’s your middle name, maybe I should name one of my other characters that…I could even dedicate the story to you. 🤣

*lowers voice* “Can I tell you something?” I happen to be a complete dork myself, so I like dorks. No worries with that. WELCOME TO THE PARTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your story sounds really interesting!

Okay, so about Raven. This particular story has been rolling around in my head for at least two or three years. I’ve made the plot and characters and tore then apart and put them back together and messed around with the story line and added stuff and took other stuff away…I’ve done some serious reconstruction on this plot. But I think I’m at the point where I have the main characters figured out, I’ve got a good idea on how their world functions, and I’ve got the basic plot figured out.

When I read you second line What do you think would encourage you in your writing journey? I felt like crying…happy tears. And some sad ones too. You touched on the biggest reason I’ve joined the Story Embers forum and applied for a guild. I’ve really been lacking encouragement and direction lately. I feel kinda lost…I have SO MANY questions and things I don’t know. And where I live, (kinda out in the boonies, where there’s more deer and trees then there are people. 😀) I don’t really have any friends close by, my family is busy with their lives, and I don’t know like anybody who writes. So, I’ve kinda just shoved my questions and problems down inside and tried to trudge on. Which is something someone with my personality should never do…😛 (I’m the type of person who has to talk about stuff, out aloud with a breathing, living person, or I’ll go bonkers.) Anyway, so when I heard about Story Embers I knew I had to join the forum and a guild. So, right now, I’m just pretty happy that I found SE, that I’m in New Wessex and I really want to start shooting questions at people…I just don’t know how to do that without taking up the rest of their lives.  And I don’t want to waste people’s time.

So, there, sorry for unloading on you like that…without warning…I have a tendency to do that. If someone asks me a question or gives me a listening ear, I can get carried away and I just tell them everything…about this and that and the other random thing that pops into my head. 😀

Apologies.
