@the-fledgling-artist, It’s a deep secret. *taps fingers together*

Just kidding, it’s a father and son leading a herd of sheep. I was inspired by, John 10:27-30, but it’s not really supposed to be Jesus and his Father. If that makes sense. 🙂

I’ve never heard of Krita. I’ve tried a few different free programs before, but so far my favorite is GIMP. 🙂

@the-fledgling-artist, Yeah, I like GIMP. I’ve never done anything in photo-shop, which is what most people use, so I couldn’t compare the two, but it has enough features without being overly complicated. 🙂 Do you do any digital art?

@the-fledgling-artist, okay, cool. 🙂 Right now I’m actually working on a digital painting on GIMP. Are you working on anything right now? Kind of wish I could have done Inktober, but we had a lot going on this month. How did it go for you?

@eden-anderson Oh, I’m so sorry! I didn’t mean to make you feel bad! 🙁  (You could always move to Missouri, since hedgehogs are legal here. 🙂 ) @rosemarylouise, aw, don’t make me cry. (Reminds me of the Velveteen Rabbit. *sniffles*)

@eden-anderson, that’s cool that you’re home-schooled too! I wonder how many other people on this forum are h…[Read more]

@the-fledgling-artist, So what exactly are we supposed to do here? Just keep up with each other while working on art projects? (I was never on Kingdom Pen, so I don’t quite understand how this works. I’m sorry! 😛 )

@eden-anderson, Yay!! Can’t wait to see your art!

Aw, thanks! I wrote more last night. 😉 I still wish I could have done more for the war, though.

@selah-chelyah, oh, okay. I looked it up but couldn’t find out how long it lasted. 🙂

Yes, *ahem* may it last longer than that. 😉

@daeus-lamb Total word count: 2,359.

@selah-chelyah

Um… What’s the Treaty of Fort Laramie??

@bama-rose, Me neither, except for one short story that I wrote for a story contest, and I had another short story I had that I wrote quite a few drafts for, but I decided to turn it into a novel and now I’m on the first draft. Again. 😛

Yeah, I didn’t really get serious about writing until recently. I’ve been really encouraged lately and have…[Read more]

@bama-rose, Yes it is!

Are you working on your first draft? Second draft? Are you in the editing stage? That’s what I was wondering. 🙂

@christieaton, I’ve actually never done Inktober, including this year. This month has been pretty busy for us, but I still enjoyed seeing everyone else’s art. Maybe next year. 🙂

@the-fledgling-artist, what about three times a year? Cool, How long do you think it will take you all to recover?

@professorsjb, cool. I like your most recent post. What materials do you use?

@selah-chelyah,

The ones who live the longest to battle another are not necessarily fighting for the right cause….

That’s probably true. Well then, let us quarrel no longer.

Hey, @bama-rose! Welcome to New Wessex! 🙂 We’re happy to have you!

I’m home-schooled too, and very thankful for it! Your WIP sounds very interesting. What stage are you at in writing it?

(Also, I really like your forum signature. 🙂 )

@the-fledgling-artist, So… one every three months?

Yes, I would never make it if we did it every month! 😛 I wrote up my own 30 day challenge once (’cause I didn’t like any of the ones I found online), but I didn’t ever get all the way through it. Maybe we go through it together as a guild sometime, if everyone else wants to.

@eden-anderson, Me word count for today is *ahem* ten words. 😛 But my total is 1904. Wow! You’re doing great! I’m hoping to get more done tonight too. I don’t think I’ll be able to catch up with you though. Maybe another time. 😉

I agree with @the-fledgling-artist about more active members. And I apologize because I know I’m not the most active either.

I like the idea of having a prompt, challenge, or contest every once in a while. Kind of like the writing guilds do, you know. And maybe a 30 day art challenge sometime. I know a lot of people are doing Inktober right now,…[Read more]

@r-m-archer, *hugs* I know how it is to feel stuck doing something you’re not fully on-board with, or stuck in general. Will be praying for you! *hugs again*

@r-j-karas, I will keep you in my prayers. Oh, yes. So much healing can be found just spending time with the Father! I’ve been discovering that in a new way for myself.

@rosemarylouise, @ede…[Read more]

@eden-anderson, Chocolate. (My favorites are mint, or coffee, or moose-tracks! 😉 )

I don’t know, maybe. If you think you could write 1667 or more words every day for a month, then definitely. 🙂 I don’t think I can at this point though, so I’ve never done NaNoWriMo.

Yes, that would be exciting!! 😀

@h-jones, Wow. I hear this verse so often that it almost seems to lose it’s meaning, so thank you for taking the time to break it down. It’s very encouraging. 🙂 Would you mind tagging me when you do this again in the future?
