That’s an awesome start! I’m going to introduce Ophelia and Athena!

Athena

It was getting dim, closer to twilight, and we weren’t even on the campus yet. Ophelia wasn’t exactly helping.

She ran after me, her heels tapping on the cobblestones, purse swinging from her shoulder. Although she was taller than I was, she was always slower.…[Read more]

@erynne

Hi Erynne!
I hope you are feeling better.  I am so sorry you were sick.
Is your brother extorting money from you? 😁
I’d pay him in Monopoly money and tell him to invest in bitcoin.  Sounds like he might be a stock trader when he grows up.  Did you ever see the e-Trade baby commercial on TV?
Let me know if the Voice app works for yo…[Read more]

I’ll go ahead and drop Conroy into the castle.

CONROY

Khalon shoved me against the wall. I slumped to floor, gasping for the air that had been knocked out of me. Khalon loomed over me and slapped my face before turning on his heel and striding away. His gesture was clear. I was not worth his time. I…[Read more]

@obrian-of-the-surface-world

Im not sure. I don’t think I’ve heard of that before. What is it?

Yes, I believe we probably have a lot more of common beliefs, but it’s very hard to communicate just through words on a screen. Yeah, anytime you have questions I’m just here, and I’ll prolly think up some for you. XD

Anytime! It looks lik…[Read more]

(Lol it kinda is as the writer lol just sayin. XD)

K’Nika squinted, “I do not know, but I think we are about to find out…”

Kallun was silent as he shot a look at Pia. She nodded. He gave her a nod, then turned back to Eliana, gently wrapped a strong arm around her waist to hold her. “Ready?”

(we can’t have the vine break cause Pia hasn’t go…[Read more]

(Hey, it’s not my fault she’s a helpless princess that hasn’t ever done anything like this)

Eliana held onto his hand and held her breath as she waited for Kallun to do his thing.

(I was just thinking that… OH I have a great idea! They have to fall into the water though. The vine needs to snap or something :D)

“What are they doing?” Julian…[Read more]

Hey Peter (@crazywriter ),

Are you going to participate in this year’s Resonant Themes Summit?

Just wondering what your plans were.  My wife’s birthday is on the 22nd, so I will miss part of it, but I bought the set that allows me to go back later and catch up.  Hope to get to see you there.

I think we are more aligned in most aspects of this t…[Read more]

(Lol oh yes, put yourself in her place)

Kallun reached for the vine and wrapped it around one hand. He held out his other arm to her.

(also what is Julian thinking of this? XD)

“Alright.” she slowly walked over to him.

(I feel like this is going to be the most awkward thing ever XD)

Kallun shrugged. “If you wish, Princess.”

(I knowwww)

(bwahahaha you’re so evil)

“Um….” she looked at Kallun. She would do whatever he prefered.

@rose-colored-fancy

That’s perfect! Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! I look forward to sharing it with you

I looking forward to reading it! 🙂

I can email it to you or just post it here!

Either one’s fine. That all sounds fine.

Mainly focus on whether the story as a whole is working, like character introductions, anything unusual that s…

@noah-cochran

Oh, I feel that. I have a small problem with having my writing grow longer and longer as I write. xD

I have the exact same thing! During the first draft of my first book, a ‘long’ chapter was 1500 words. Now, a short chapter is 4000 words XD

I have no idea why that happens, but I find it quite funny XD

Alrighty, let’s plan on the l…

Pia rolled her eyes, “Did I say a bridge was an option?” She said sarcastically.

Kallun grinned.

Pia raised an eyebrow at him, “Kal’n Can take you across.”

His eyes widened. She meant hold Ellie….

(watch them both get soaked XDXD)

“And there’s no other way besides this or swimming?”

Isella

Isella opened her eyes and blinked. It hadn’t changed much: the world was almost as black with her eyes open as it was with them closed.

Where am I?

She tried to turn her head to look around, and memory came pounding back, through her temples and all across her limbs. They were stiff with the fall and the tussle. She shuddered at the…[Read more]

@rose-colored-fancy

The story is about 91k long. (The shortest one in the trilogy, I’m already at that with book 3 and I’m still in the second act

Oh, I feel that. I have a small problem with having my writing grow longer and longer as I write. xD

This feedback is just about the biggest issues, plot, world, and character. So, let me know when you…

@calidris

I’ll drop (literally) Conroy in this castle. His character growth would be stunted if he was with Khalon.

Here’s a quick overview of Conroy:

Name: Conroy Flinston

Age: somewhere between 19 and 22

Appearance: About 6 ft. tall; thin face with dull brown hair and eyes, light colored skin; has on a knee-length, light, caramel colored…[Read more]

@merieshenanigans Here it is!  Hopefully we’ll be able to get it up and running soon, but in the meantime I have some catch-up to do…

Also, like I said, absolutely no pressure to stay active.  I think most, if not all of us here have taken ridiculously long leaves of absence xD

@noah-cochran

All of that happened before I even read a single word. Craziness. xD

Ohmygoodness that gave me such a laugh XD I literally laughed out loud, that’s hilarious!

I’m assuming they liked it, considering how quickly everyone read it XD It’s awesome, the sequel is even better! And absolutely, the Audible version is amazing! That’s how I…[Read more]
