I posted it in the fantasy group forum… So far I’m only part of the fantasy and poetry forum groups…
so far, I’ve put in one poem, (entitled, “I, The Psalter”), one section in @obrian-of-the-surface-world ‘s audio-reading…[Read more]

Wow… I just made myself cry… Writing should come with a warning label…
Warning: Writing emotional scenes can be emotional.
lol. I posted it if you want to see it. It’s pretty raw off the press, so hopefully it’s clean of typos and errors…
oh, and Rose, I see what…[Read more]

So, yeah… I teared up writing it, so get your Kleenex’s ready…
WARNING – This section discusses killing to the point of genocide as well as acts of prostitution. While the genocide and killing are in self-defense (due to a blood curse), and the prostitution was because she was in abject slavery practically from birth, if that make you…[Read more]

Oof… I just made myself cry.
You know you’ve got an emotional scene on your hands, when you can do that to yourself while writing. :p

No, not too critical. Thank you for your considerate reply! I think your story themes sounds great! It reminds me a lot of Pilgrim’s Progress. The parallels are very easy to see, and it sounds like a really interesting story.

In fantasy, there is a line where the fantastical becomes far-fetched. Where do you draw the line?
Upon another line of thought, similar to that, I was wondering when it comes to catering biblical realities and Christian truth into fantasy, how far is too far when it comes to altering truth to fit into your story?
Here’s an example of what I…[Read more]

Hi @rose-colored-glasses and @joelle-stone
Thank you so much for the warm welcome! and @brian-of-the-surface-world, too
by the way, how do I change the @ signature?
I have a nickname my students used to call me that I’ve been debating back and forth as to whether have it as my writing alias… Mr. Trip… Ever since, I’ve always thought Trip…[Read more]

Jared Williams replied to the topic What is the most bizarre creature you have created for your WIP? in the forum Fantasy Writers 4 years, 1 month ago
Hehe. Nice question.
My high fantasy has a lot of normal creatures you’d find here on earth, but also plenty of new fantasy creatures. The legendary ones are called the creatures of Myf, and they are pretty spectacular. I’ve only created a few of them so far, however.
Saliero (name derived from the latin word for frog – Salientia) – also known…[Read more]

Oh no! It didn’t post correctly. Let me try again.
I, the Psalter
Rolling peaks in the bleak void,
Dizzying repetition of the mind it toyed.
In soaking misery of the waters endless rush,
The heart heaves a futile hope lost in the hush.
Eternal feelings envelop the waters falling,
Lost to the vastness of the failed…[Read more]

Such a warm welcome! Thank you! I hope to get to some of those things!
For your questions,
My WIP’s theme is an interesting one. The story formed itself from the first book I wrote in fantasy. (The main character in the series is a young teenager, orphaned at a young age. However, my current WIP is the story of how his parents met.) The big…[Read more]

I’m new to the forum, so I hope I’m doing this correct, but I love this idea of posting audio clips. I hope to put one up soon… though I may not have much time to go back and listen to all the wonderful recordings prior to this…
I was enthralled by your writing – however, the background sounds were a bit too much…[Read more]

I am a math teacher with a BA in History, minor in Philosophy, MA in Psychology, and a passion for Christian apologetics. I dabble in scientific theories (NOT evolution), and would love to be a published author (not yet).
I started off writing suspense in a series that was my attempt to answer the problem of pain (of which I also wrote a 60 day…[Read more]
