@claire-h, You know, I seem to be getting that a lot lately on Story Embers… 😛

(Also, thank you very much! I’m glad you liked it. I look forward to Amara’s description, that’ll help make her twin different.)

Horns & Hair:

I’ve hemmed and hawed on her horns, so I guess I’ll nail it down finally.

Iron horns – texture of cast-iron, rough…[Read more]

@deeprun, thank you!

@claire-h, I understand your situation (or at least I think I do). Rest for the Wicked began as a very different (and very generic) fantasy novel with a similar set of characters – then after many failed attempts to produce a novel, that turned into a fantasy cop drama…[Read more]

@claire-h, yes I would love to draw both the twins and your 20s mystery girl! I love the ancient setting too – it’s not commonly done. And I like that your main character’s flaw isn’t the usual recklessness and strong will – but rather being afraid and being all-too-willing to compromise.

You know, I somehow knew that the Countess and the…[Read more]

@claire-h

Both sound great! (And I don’t mind drawing both sisters.) Gimme the details and I’ll get to work (along with the rest of my backlog of art requests and side projects… over-commitment is a heck of a trip!) 😀

Ah yes, Roaring Twenties… I have to ask, are there trench coats involved? Trench coats are a must you know.

For my part,…[Read more]

@deeprun – not my character, but it’s awesome!

(@beth20, also I’m STILL working on them. I got side-tracked. I need to go and find them and sketch them; hopefully I’ll have something by this afternoon (probably night for you). And @naiya-dyani I still need to go back and draw Kokai as not a 40 year old man).

To everyone else, I also wouldn’t…[Read more]

@claire-h

You’re welcome!! And yep. *nodnod*

Awesome! Ahh yes… brainstorming… 😛

@claire-h

Don’t feel bad, I didn’t even know what does the word washstand means…

Okay, I read it all. Besides the technical stuff I mentioned, it was great!

You’ve done a great job introducing the characters – personality, age, and only few at a time.

You over-describe at some points – maybe I’m just tired, though.

I didn’t actually…[Read more]

@claire-h

Ooo. Ok. So, first off, this is great and I want to read moreeeeee 😀 😀 😀

A few things that jumped out at me… You add in a good mix of little details that the scenes would be flat-sounding without. I’m bad at this. Little things like the aprons and the staircase. And I really like this overall vibe of the snippet. Um… what…[Read more]

@claire-h

Okay, I don’t have the time rn to go through it in-depth, but I sat down to read it over, and it’s captivating!! I love Jean’s personality shining through. Something to bear in mind—you definitely don’t have to spill it in the first chapter, just for future reference—I’m curious how old they are, and what their situations are that they…[Read more]

@claire-h

Yes, agreed! 🙂

@bama-rose

Awesome! That’s great- thank you.

@claire-h

Wonderful! Thanks. 🙂 I just sent you the access link. And I love your signature, btw- one of my fav quotes by Spurgeon, if you can even have a fav… XD

@katja-r

I prefer WWII, too. I really like some of the outfits during that time xD And there’s so much to learn about it as well.

Aw thanks – it is pretty cool living in NZ – lots of gorgeous places 😊

Oh nice! Yes, please do tag me in for your stories.

Wow…that is pretty special 😊
Yes, Charles S…[Read more]

*walks in late* Hi, ya’ll! XD Pretty cool how many of the best movies you guys have already mentioned. 🙂

@beth20

I agree, the Kendrick Bros movies are amazing. I’ve seen all of them except for part of Fireproof, and they only get better as they keep making them. Super awesome!

@middleearthmusician

Oh, I absolutely love Beyond the Mask. One of…[Read more]

@katja-r

Hey and welcome to SE!

I know I’m kinda a latecomer in saying hello, but anyways – nice to “meet” you 😉

I love your profile pic – it’s so pretty xD

I noticed that you like the WWII era. That and WWI are literally my favourite eras. I love reading about history and writing stories during those two time periods. There’s so much to…[Read more]

@claire-h

*nods* Nice! Ooo, I have the sheet music for that one but haven’t attempted it yet… And yessss the LOTR music is awesomeeee!!

@katja-r (probably gonna have to edit your tag)

Wiggins is on page 37! And then @claire-h drew Kylian. He’s on either page 38 or 39, I believe.
