Hey yourself! I’m great. Been working on my fantasy novel, and doing custom shoes for people.😁

@beth20 Thanks for tagging me! Also, you probably need to add more background to Ashton and Eldin. Where did they come from? Do they have parents? How did they get captured?

Zee replied to the topic Outline for short story in the forum Plotting 5 years, 1 month ago
I like the idea for your story, @beth20. I think it could be quite good.
A few thoughts/questions…
What’s the setting? I’m assuming ancient or Medieval times, due to the presence of an Earl, but may be wrong.
Why does Ashton live with the Malum Draco? Is he the son of one of the members, or is he someone they’ve kidnapped and plan to sell? If…[Read more]

I wasn’t tagged but I can give you opinion 😉
I really like it!!! The suspense is really cool, and everything seems very well thought out. It’s definitely one I would read if I were to see it around somewhere.

Rose replied to the topic Favorite Fantasy Book in the forum Fantasy Writers 5 years, 1 month ago
Awesome topic! I’m reading through it for recommendations XD
Here are my favorites:
I second Ranger’s apprentice, Brotherband, and the Royal Ranger by John Flanagan. It’s pretty awesome! The only thing I dislike are the female characters, who are kinda flat, but it doesn’t really detract from the overall story, which is awesome! My…[Read more]

@beth20 Are you still getting The Silent Bells? We decided to quit.
-
Hey!
Yeah, I am! Why’d you quit? -
We got tired of paying for it. It seemed like the plot wasn’t really going anywhere and we weren’t getting our money’s worth.
-
Oh, that’s sad. What was the last chapter you got?
We just got chapter 12, I haven’t read it yet though.
What are you reading rn?
-
-
The last chapter we got was chapter 12 too.
-
Oh okay.
I just finished the book he advertised on the back of his newspaper called The Winter King. It was actually pretty good!
-
-
Cool!
-
Yeah!
What are you reading rn?
-
-
Lés Miserables for the second time. How about you?
-
I’ve heard good things about that book!
The second book to Maze Runner and Across Five Aprils for school.
Do you or Claire have Goodreads?
-
-
What is the Maze Runner series? I’ve heard of it but I don’t know what it is. The same goes for goodreads.
-
Maze Runner is a dystopian series by James Dashner. I like them, not sure if you would. There is a site called CommonSenseMedia that reviews books and movies and tells you everything wrong, and everything good about them.
Goodreads a site where you can keep track of all the books you’ve read and books you’re currently reading. You can also write…[Read more] -

Yeah, you should! =)

We are doing pretty good, the county FINALLY lifted the mask mandate, but some businesses are still requiring them of course. Our church moved into a new building and we are fixing the building up, so we have been doing a lot of work on that. And, our cat is having kittens in two weeks! (She isn’t even a year old yet.) Well, that’s about it for…[Read more]

Oh, and I almost forgot… What is this Jominkreesa think I keep seeing people have in their quote section? I tried to look it up, but all that came up with was people on SE! It’s driving me crazy… What is it?!?!?!?
-
Cool!
We are all good! Nothin’ super exciting’s happening…went to church today…but we don’t really have anything planned for this week. Hopefully, we’ll do something fun though lol.
Haha!! The meaning is a secret, the only people who know what it means are Synjon, Carter, I, and Kimmi 😉 It’s something we made during the Spring CWW of 2020 -
also, when you reply can you tag me, I keep not getting notified
-
-
Hmmmmmmm… Well, I guess I’ll just have to deal with it. You know like friends from Idaho? They came down and visited us today!
-
-
Haha
That’s fun! -
How’re you doing today?
-
-
@beth20 We are doing pretty good, we don’t have a lot going on rn besides working on our church. I decided to finally finish a book I started a long time ago, but I don’t want to go back and edit the first 25,000 works because, well……. You know… We are also having a fast from devices this week, but I am allowed to check my stuff once a day,…[Read more]
-
Yeah.
Nice, I should prob start limiting my screen time too lol
I’m good! Did school today, did some drawings. Tomorrow Mom, my friend and I are going into town. Have you ever listened to NF?
-
-
@beth20 Yes I have! I am just not really into rap that much. Have you ever listened to TobyMac? We are going into town tomorrow as well! We are going to visit my great grandma who is 99.
-
I’ve heard a couple of his songs.
Haha!
Wow! My grandma and grandpa are 94 I think
-
-
@beth20 Nice! How is your WIP going?
-
Good!
Haven’t worked on it much lol I’m gonna finish the short story I’m writing, and then really work on it -
I picture when you say WIP as a novel, but technically WIP can be a short story too lol
-
-
@beth20 Yeah, I know what you mean. Short stories though…. Me and Claire have a hard time keeping them short. XD
-
Haha!!
How is Claire anyway?
-
-
@beth20 She is doing good. She might be gong to an internship in NY for three months soon if she gets accepted. It would be an internship with the book publisher Lamplighter Books. Our cat is due to have her kittens any day now!!! She is getting REALLY big. Do you have any pets?
-
Wow! Good for her.
Haha, nice!! Yeah, three cats, a dog, a Guinee pig, couple birds (parakeet, cockatiel, and a parrot) and some fish
-
-
@beth20 Woah. That’s a LOT of pets. We also have a dog and some chickens. Some of them are sitting on eggs rn, so we should have some chicks here in a month or so.
-
Nice!
We used to have pigs and goats and horses and even cows at one time.
What breed is your dog?
-
-
@beth20 Wow. That’s cool!!! Silas is a German and Anatolian Shepherd mix. What about your dog?
-
Cool! My friend has two Australian shepherds. Bonnie is an English mastiff
-

@beth20 Nice! Heidi our cat is having her kittens right now! She just had one ten minutes ago! It is black.
-
Oh wow!! How many?

-
@beth20 There is five total! Three black and two black and white!!!
-
Nice!! Are you going to keep them all?
-
-
@beth20 No, but we hope our parents will let us keep one.
-
Oh okay. We didn’t keep most of our kittens either.
-
Helloooo? 😆

-
Lol that’s fine
We went to an amusement park yesterday and went to the movies today lol

@beth20 Wow. That’s a lot more exciting than going to the dentist, XD. Do you play Minecraft?

Haha

Oh, you were on CWW so you prob know what that is lol

You definitely should pick it up again sometime! I think Duolingo teaches it now, but I don’t how well they do it.
@sklarynn
Just change “mortuam” to “mortua”, and I think it’ll be right 🙂
Also, I LOVE your profile pic. Owls are one of my favorite animals.

Alessio passed the book to Virtus. Nithel stood quietly behind Alessio, waiting.

Alessio stared at Nithel a bit. As if he couldn’t believe the man didn’t know what writing was. Nithel’s brows furrowed moreso. Perhaps Alessio came from a place where the leafed squares were common, and the symbols on them.
Nithel felt a strange feeling wash into his heart, and he rinsed it quickly. I don’t need to know everything, if Alessio…[Read more]
