@kayla13892 Wow, that’s longer than me! I understand that. I’m working on my first full-length novel and I have no idea what my process is yet. XP

Howdy, Kayla! Nice to meet you! (I’m a pantser as well.) I’m trying to finish my draft as well…it will be my first full-length novel because I haven’t been able to stick to anything in the past. XD

How did you start writing?

Hi, Kayla! I’m new here as well!

I’m also working on my draft… almost done with my first edit and it’s taking forever! Mine is contemporary Christian romance/women’s fiction. I really don’t know the difference between the romance and women’s genre myself… they seem to blend into each other a lot. 🙂

@k-a-grey

sorry for the late reply.

lol. it was close. Most of the differences are just me being exceedingly nitpicky. =)

The differences:

– red scales instead of green

– the front fins are near perfect except the three fingers come straight out of the curve of the fin, so there is no hand-like connection between the fingers and the…[Read more]

@jared-williams Thanks!  (How close did I get to what you imagined?)

That’s awesome!

@jared-williams Just gonna put these here 🙂

@jared-williams Okay, thank you! An email is on its way! 🙂

@k-a-grey

don’t worry about it! I can post my email. That’s fine!

@jared-williams Well, honestly, I’m not really comfortable with sharing my email here.  Could you give me an address where I could email you? But then again, you might not be comfortable with that either….😅

Or maybe you would be okay with sharing the link, but making it so only people who are signed in can see it? If you’re not okay with that,…[Read more]

Thank you so much for commenting.

@k-a-grey

I can see where you are coming from with Harry Potter, and I have some good friends who feel the same way. Hold strong to those convictions!

I appreciate you being willing to beta read my novel! I know reading a novel is a big ask, so whatever you can get done would be greatly appreciated. I know some…[Read more]

@jared-williams Hello! Soo, I’m not much of a romance reader… or a fantasy reader for that matter (unless The Chronicles of Narnia and Nadine Brandes’ Fawkes count 😅).  Yes, I joined the group Romance Writers just so I could join the conversation (don’t hate on me please).  But anywaayyy…. I’ve been stalking  following this conversation bec…[Read more]

@jared-williams

If I am understanding your question, yes I think so.

Okay, I’m glad to hear it (it seems pretty obvious to me that gods and demons etc.. are not things the bible is okay with us reading, but many Christians claim Sanderson’s Mistborn and Stormlight are fine, despite the fact that Mistborn is full of gods, and Stormlight literally…[Read more]

@noah-cochran

If I am understanding your question, yes I think so.

Thank you so much for going more in depth into your concepts and beliefs on the subject. It has cleared up some confusion on my part and some pre-conceived assumptions. And thank you so much for being so gracious with your response. You are correct that over the internet tone…[Read more]

@jared-williams

Before I give a brief reply, I’d like to say a couple things.

First, using the phrase ‘taking in magical content is a sin’ is such a broad phrase that it was not wise for me to say it. So my apologies.

Secondly, let me just say, Jared, that I have never seen this argument for why magic is okay before (it’s usually vernacular and…[Read more]

I apologize. That last part came across a lot more strongly than I intended.

I know you aren’t purposefully impugning my moral standing or anything of the sort and that you mean well.

Its just the way you word things…

I applaud you for your position and your conviction, and I do not want to take that away from you. Far from it. Hold…[Read more]
