@anne_the_noob14 The Castle Glower series, you say? That sounds interesting. I may have to look it up. Ooh, good description for Lucas. I like all the details you added.

Don’t worry! You didn’t mess up Caedon! I love Lucas’ observations about Caedon’s stance and how he treats strangers with respect. That’s perfect. And his reaction to the…[Read more]

@anne_the_noob14 – I think you can still submit! The deadline says Sunday night.

@ariella-newheart – Thanks for those tips! Lol, I would’ve chosen a silky interior lining, so good thing you warned me. 😛

@anne_the_noob14 Oh yeah, Hobby Lobby has a lot of good fabrics. JoAnn’s has a nice selection, too.

And don’t forget to submit your word counts, Parimis! I’m not including the amount I wrote for the Character Castle (since I’m not sure if it’s against the rules or not) but I wrote a lot this week! (Plus I figured out Caedon’s character.)

GO PARIMI ALCA!!

@ariella-newheart @anne_the_noob14 Agh, I’m so excited to jump in, but I can’t decide which character to bring in. xD What sort of character do you want to see yours interact with?

@anne_the_noob14  Nice!

@anne_the_noob14 I’m actually not sure what kind of fabric it is. I got it from a sale at a church and there were no labels on it. It’s not thin like cotton and is relatively durable. (It might be linen, but I can’t say for sure.) Any fabric would probably work as long as you have enough of it. I used gabardine for a red cloak and it turned out…[Read more]

@anne_the_noob14 I pronounce it CAY-don. He lives in a medieval fantasy-type world. 🙂 Oh, poor Lucas! I can see how that experience would be scarring! Though that gives me an idea. We should have a storm come up while Caedon and Lucas are in the library. I’d love to see both their reactions.

Your entry is perfect! Lucas getting there first…[Read more]

@elisha-starquill Aw, yeah. Fire can be pretty scary. I happen to be quite fascinated by it, though, and campfires are one of my favorite things ever. But I definitely understand the fear of it.

A black belt test? That’s so cool!

@evelyn @anne_the_noob14 I think Exploring Creation with Chemistry is the Apologia science curriculum, which is the c…[Read more]

@anne_the_noob14 Ooh, Lucas sounds really cool! I like the botany part. It sounds like he might get along well with Caedon, one of my newest charries.

So here’s him:

Caedon of Solina is a very quiet, solemn twelve-year old with dark hair and blue-green eyes. Even when he was a baby he was always serious. He loves nature and enjoys watching…[Read more]

@steward-of-the-pen – Good to see you too! I’m great! Just finished my chemistry class last month, which is a huge relief. Yes, there’s lot’s of fire. I’m terrified of fire (which is maybe why the villain in my story has fire powers. xD) So terrified, in fact, that a mere spark will send me shrieking, and I can’t for the life of me muster the…[Read more]

@anne_the_noob14 cool!  Any idea what draw-weight it is?

@ariella-newheart – Those are awesome drawings! What did you use for them? Pencil? (And I love your profile pic. That cloak is epic. The green is just like Arwen’s wedding gown.)

@steward-of-the-pen – I’ve also set my WIP aside for the past few months, because to be honest I was rather sick of it and my MC, but I’ve just gotten back into it,…[Read more]

@anne_the_noob14 Haha, don’t get us started on that debate! 😉 I was thinking we could either just tell each other our word counts at the end of the week or we could do daily updates too, if you want…I don’t care.😀

@tashah-claymore

Yeah…that makes sense. 🙂

I love his books too. They are super cool xD

John J. Horn writes historical fiction, and Hope Ann writes fantasy. I really love their books.

Cool xD The only place I’ve been to outside of NZ is the States. We went as a family a few years ago for three months. I think we went to about eleven or…[Read more]

@anne_the_noob14

Yeah, that’s true.

My draw weight is 29 pounds.  Once I get my accuracy near-perfect I’d like to increase it, though.  But it’s better to practice accuracy with a lighter draw weight rather than trying to muscle back the string and aim properly at the same time.  If you get your accuracy down first, you know pretty much where to…[Read more]

@anne_the_noob14 Well, I wish you the best of luck! 😀 Do you wanna see who can write the most amount of words by Sunday?? Since we’re both bad at this perhaps we could help each other…🙃

@anne_the_noob14 You mean I’m not alone in this??

@anne_the_noob14 Thank you!!

@sir-leeds I appreciate your feedback! What I’m actually trying to convey is a process of healing over the course of a year. As the seasons go by (with similar themes in each), the girl becomes more and more reconciled. In that light, what changes to you think should happen? Maybe what’s happening in the last section…[Read more]

@anne_the_noob14

You definitely should!

Yeah, that’s unfortunate.

I can understand the immediate thought of “emo.”  A LOT of people stereotype them as emo, but they’ve got so much more than the typical “emo” band.  They have a lot more depth and meaning and sound.

I hope you get to watch LotR and the Hobbit soon!

Yeah, longbows and recurve a…[Read more]
