Hey!

Okay yeah, so my book has not very much language only like h**l and d**n and a*s nothing more than that. And it’s very rare!

But there are books like Rangers apprentice books which has mild language and I’m pretty sure they are for grades 4-8. Correct me if I’m wrong. And 4-8 would be middle grades right?

I think I have a pretty good list from you and the others I have asked. Also, you should join Y-dubs! It’s AMAZING!

@corkybookworm Thank you! 😀

Would a month be too fast? And how would you like me to send it to you? I can convert the file to .rtf pretty easily, or Google docs might work well enough, or I think I can get it into a .txt file that will work semi-decently on a kindle. (The .txt…[Read more]

Actually, I was back Sunday, but life has been busy. But all’s well in my neighborhood concerning the hurricane! Thank you for your prayers! <3

@quinn-ofallon – Your Moonwatcher world sounds so mystical! You must have had a lot of fun playing around with the worldbuilding; I’d love to vacation there!

Oof… I’m sorry, I don’t believe I can help here, as those two fields are outside what I usually work in. Unless by contemporary you mean contemporarily written. To which I would point at N.D. Wilsons’s Boys of Blur, 100 Cupboards, Ashtown Burrials, Leepike Ridge, and Outlaws of Time. All of those are adventure fiction, but each…[Read more]

Your worlds all sound very neat and interesting.

@corkybookworm I love the ocean and I really want to write a fantasy book about the ocean (without having mermaids in it!). I haven’t really thought of any ideas yet, though.

My current world is actually three worlds stacked on top of each other. There are four…[Read more]

Thanks to watching all of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies at a friend’s birthday party, it would probably include a lot of sailing ships and sword fights.

I thought I added you, but obviously I didn’t. 🙁

I love your ocean-themed world with the different types of sea people! I don’t like most common fantasy races, but there’s just something captivating about mermaids. Maybe it’s the fact that I’m an awful swimmer. 😛 Have you every heard of the Spiderwick…[Read more]

Too bad I can’t answer them quickly except by the cop-out answer, “It depends.” xD But so far, I’ve used both dogs and cats as pets for my characters, and another…[Read more]
