@daeus-lamb @claire-h

Thank you so much for the advises! Probably writing non-fiction is better for evangelizing. (Or I can just translate one of the books of Living Waters to Hebrew 😉 ).

You see what I mean? Not everything that at first appears like hiding one’s lamp under a basket has to be so. It’s about just however God leads and us sur…

@corine

Hmm, I can’t find that article… Can you link to it please?

@daeus-lamb

Thank you so much for the advises!

You can even write a story that just brightens someone’s day or reenergizes them

Well, if it’s everything I’ve done, so I just sent the reader to Hell reenergized…

Anyway, after praying, I think that God wants me to wait with m…[Read more]

Ooh, this is so fun! I feel a little out of my league though, because I’m not used to critiquing or looking very in-depth at books. I just kind of read them and if I like them, I like them and if I hate them, I hate them. And don’t have any particular idea why. 🙃 I guess it’s good to do things outside of our comfort zones sometimes, though.

So,…[Read more]

Hey! I read ahead a little, but I want the stuff we’re talking about here to be fresh in my mind, so I didn’t go too far lol.

Matt, Jesse, and Dickie do have an interesting relationship. Matt genuinely became friends with them and is attracted to Jesse from the start, but because everyone around him looks down on them that mindset rubs off on…[Read more]

How does Chris Fabry show what the story is about so thoroughly right from the start? How can we learn from this?

The tone from the start was one of remembering, living in the past, and a quiet dissatisfaction. Because it was so retrospective I actually had a little trouble figuring out what was going on at first, but as the story went on that…[Read more]

@daeus-lamb
Hello Mr. Daeus
I’m planning on writing a short story about baseball, I want to weave a Christian message in it. But I have a problem, A lot of baseball stories are incredibly cheesy and corny, and a lot of people might be turned off by it being about baseball, Funny thing is I don’t like sports lol. However, I don’t want the sport…[Read more]

  It’s not a lot to go off of. I don’t want to write the story for you. I’d suggest you look for a book you admire you can take inspiration from. Take what you like from it, mix it up, and make it your own story.

@daeus-lamb @taylorclogston @edmund-lloyd-fletcher I’m not sure if I can’t adjust the anti-spam filters. I will certainly seek to do so if I can, but it’s probably tied to the forum software we use and adjusting that spam filter could be tricky. I’ll try to look at this more after the summit later this month, but at the moment, my best…[Read more]

@daeus-lamb Hello! I started a topic but it didn’t show up. I tried submitting again and it said it was a duplicate; when I checked in my profile it said I hadn’t started any topics; is it held for moderation because it’s my first one?
The Inkspiller replied to the topic Prayer Requests #1 in the forum Prayer Requests 6 years, 2 months ago

@sageinthemeadow,

Thank you for writing that. Words will fail me in expressing my thanks I’m sure, but thank you nonetheless.

In your second paragraph, I was reminded of Christ in Gethsemane – both in Matthew 26 and in the poem by Boris Pasternak regarding the same. I’ve long been told that God knows what it’s like to be human, not just because…[Read more]

@princess-foo and @daeus-lamb: Thank you so much for taking the time to make such a lengthy reply! I really appreciate it!

And @princess-foo, you’re right about having a sort of George Washington! I will certainly apply it! Thank you 😊

And sir @daeus-lamb: I’ve actually talked about a similar topic to my Bible teacher, he said that it would be…[Read more]

@daeus-lamb I think that’s a good moral =P I’m really glad you were able to find one that feels right.

(and for whatever it’s worth, I like it)
Josiah DeGraaf replied to the topic The Songkiller’s Synopsis!!! in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 2 months ago

@daeus-lamb Sorry for missing this earlier! Honestly, my favorite one in this discussion is the first revision you did from the initial draft from your blurb artist at the top of page 3. I may add a line about the other two allies to the wizard paragraph. But I personally felt like that one was the most specific and grabbing (though I do like the…[Read more]

@daeus-lamb Done.
The Inkspiller replied to the topic Prayer Requests #1 in the forum Prayer Requests 6 years, 2 months ago

Alrighty. @daeus-lamb. I’ll set an alarm to remind me. How is this going to go down, by the way? The meet and pray that is.
The Inkspiller replied to the topic Prayer Requests #1 in the forum Prayer Requests 6 years, 2 months ago

@daeus-lamb

Any time, honestly. Not exactly going places at the moment.
The Inkspiller replied to the topic Prayer Requests #1 in the forum Prayer Requests 6 years, 2 months ago

@daeus-lamb

I would appreciate that.

I understand my reply is late in coming and I’d hate to be a burden on your time. At the moment, I feel somewhat better, I guess, though whether it is God’s grace of answered prayers or myself just cutting off my emotions, I’m still uncertain. But I still don’t know what to do with myself here and now. I…[Read more]

I question myself posting this and question that too, but here we are. I apologize in advance for this gloomy vent and its lack of conciseness.

I feel brutally depressed. Apathetic. Hopeless to the point of inactivity. And it’s only Tuesday. Sunday I was…[Read more]

  Hi. I’m new here and I know you don’t know me at all, but I get what you’re going through. I’ve gone through stuff like that before.
  I’m praying for you.

  Don’t listen to the lies in your head. Satan is trying to attack you.
