Hi @mgtask !
I agree with @katja-r that Tolkien had a huge influence on fantasy, but Middle Earth isn’t that much medieval – it’s a combination of 19th century pastoral England, Northern mythology, ancient Europe, and Tolkien’s imagination. In fact, Narnia is much more medieval – knights, ladies, castles, hunting the white deer, feudalism,…[Read more]

Oh, btw – sorry I didn’t comment it before, but your drawing is really beautiful! I love too pencil drawings (my only writing implement are a mechanic 0.5 pencil and two 0/4 pilot pens, so…).

Once in 7 years. But we get dust storms (have you ever seen a yellowΒ <b>weather</b>?), and in the summer the temperature might rise up to 104f. In fact, from kindergarten, children are taught how to be ”smart in the sun”Β – drink a lot, seek for shade, wear hat, smear sunscreen, etc. Personally, twice I’ve been dumb in the sun and g…[Read more]

How big was the hail you got?
0.6 inch. I guess for a Canadian it’s not impressing, but in the desert, to get hail inΒ May is very, very unusual.
How about you?
I study Psalm 68 in depth, and I want also to study Ecclesiastes, but I think less is more when it comes to scripture study – if I’ll eat to much, I’ll just throw up… I also…[Read more]

Hello and nice to meet you! It’s an amazing place to grow as a writer and as a Christian.
How old are you?

Cool! I love drawing too! Can you share some of your drawings?

Hello @katja-r ! It’s an amazing place to grow as a writer and as a Christian.
Are you Russian? Katja is a Russian name, after all. If so, how did you become a Christian (Russia isn’t a very evangelical country…)? If you’re not, just ignore my question π
Pray over your writing, and even if your story will not be the best, God will use it.…[Read more]

Yes, you’ve read the title correct.
In the last time I just… can’t write (or draw, or write apologetic docs). Every time I sit to do so I feel like I’m sinning. Sometimes I try to pray that God will give me inspiration and use the talents he gave me to glorify him, but when praying I feel like I’m praying to something I know to be wrong…

My English isn’t good enough to actually understand the poem, but I really loved the meter and rhyming!

I really like it!
I couldn’t have said it any better.
One note from me – I love that you didn’t introduced the man in the car as a character. It’s a good idea to not introduce to many characters at once, especially minor ones.
Now, to the critique π

The story isn’t like anything I’ve read, but I love it! π
At first I was sure that it’s an allegory for Christ. It doesn’t seems so, but Corian is definitely Christlike.
I was quite confused from the characters’ age, though.
Hmm, I’m sorry if I offend you, but… Are you Chinese?

And I’m sorry for I’ve forgotten, but – Congratulations for the new profile image! π
(I don’t know if in English people say it for new things. In Hebrew, when someone have something new – like shirt, haircut or profile image – we say ”titchadesh”, which literally means ”be renewed”).

I’m not the guy the army wants in the warrior forces. Let’s put it this way.
Certain birds and wild boars, in the hunting season. In some cities, boars cause damages, so it’s helpful to hunt them.

Very cute story, I loved it (and the lion facts are very cool)!
Now, my critique – it’s just my opinion, and I enjoyed the story anyway.
At first, I was sure that the story is about cats π
The names of the cubs are somewhat strange. Calling a lion after his color isn’t very informative, since all lions have the same color… Maybe you could…[Read more]
