Oh! Do you want me to start a new topic for every chapter?

Gracie replied to the topic Pre-prologue in the forum Historical Fiction Writers 6 years, 3 months ago
I’m sorry you had to start over. 🙁
Okay, pre-prologue has disappeared. 🙂 The Roman scene it is.
I watched the video you linked, and might again. (:
Another, smaller problem I had with the pre-prologue is the POV. As a general advice – don’t use omniscient POV.
So, you likely don’t want me to do this in the
prologue(: First chap…[Read more] -

Oh, I wrote a whole comment and then the electricity fell…
Your writing is really good! Descriptions, punctuation, etc., you do it great. Good job!
You’ve also portrayed good the relationships in the family. Malachi sounds like a real elder brother, and I say it as an elder brother 😉
The main problem with the pre prologue is that……[Read more]

Six year old Chena Batjehoshaphat laughed as she and her two brothers chased a plump frog.
“Hurry! Hurry! Before he reaches the stream!” Nine-year-old Malachi rushed ahead, shoving his little sister aside.
Far behind them Levi, his chin only reaching a finger over the tall grass began to cry. Chena glanced back, her shoulders low…[Read more]

Hi everyone! What is everyone writing? I currently don’t have a romance WIP, but I usually have hints of it in my other stories.
I have a question: How should I build romance? I want to hint at it, but I don’t want it to be in your face. If it helps, my female character is ISTJ and grew up alone most of her life. My male character is ESFP…[Read more]-
Hi Ella,
It looks like your question has been here a little while, but I suppose I could throw in my two cents anyway, since I had a similar setup in my first book (except the girl was the more outgoing one.) I actually don’t think the pacing of your romance is too much dependent on whether your character is more introverted/quiet, or…[Read more]-
Sorry for not getting back to you, Zee! Thanks for your advice! I’ll definitely think about what you said. Appreciate it! 🤗

It was definitely worth the time. Thank you for sharing this. I think I am too scared to share my poems. After reading yours, and others’…It makes me want to be brave.
You are not alone in your doubts, your fears. We all have had trials and tears. You are strong, you are brave. You are called by name. He loves you. Don’t give up. I’ve been…[Read more]

Eitan replied to the topic Translated poem in the forum Poets 6 years, 3 months ago
You asked me how am I doing. The general answer – I’m excellent! The detailed – well, yesterday I wrote this poem, after I’d had some hard hours, and in the end, God taught me a very important lesson.
By the way, your care and love are really touching. You showed me how Christians should care for their brethren. Thank you so…[Read more]

Good job Eitan. (: It reminded me of David.

I admire that you shared this. Generally, I’m too scared to share my poetry. My soul lifts at your desire to lift others, to show your love and doubts. It was beautiful.

Thank you so much Gracie! I’m so glad God used it to encourage other believers.
Hmm, it’s likely that my poetry is inspired, consciously or not, from the book of Psalms. The poem contains a few clear references (Psalm 22:1, and Psalm 23:1), but maybe the whole style is inspired by the book. I don’t know, but it’s cool if it is! 🙂
