Hi Kayla! I do remember you, and I’m glad you’re back!
What’s your WIP about? Do you have any favorite books? What are some of your favorite crafts?
That’s really cool that you’re learning to knit! I never learned to knit, but it does seem fun (and practical.)I think that SE is…unfortunately rather inactive at the moment. I think that…[Read more]

@e-n-leonard has Mara, who’s actually an antagonist in her story (but I love her so much :’)
@lady-grace has Yarrow, a teen boy in a fantasy…[Read more]

@anyone else I missed
I’m going to go ahead and get started on that new challenge!

calidris replied to the topic Character Castle 2.0 in the forum Fantasy Writers 3 years, 2 months ago
@lady-grace YES DO IT!!!
@mamaauthoress those characters sound interesting! Are they related to Ruan’s story by any chance?
@ethan-leonard Would you like to go ahead and have Saevus finish off Lord Castle? I don’t think the vulture vomit idea is going to work out, since @jared-williams isn’t active right now
Actually @everyone I have an i…[Read more]

calidris replied to the topic HELP! Plot thoughts & Hard Topics in the forum Fantasy Writers 3 years, 3 months ago
Good to know!
That is a very wise decision, and I think that by avoiding focusing on the act itself, you’ll be much less likely to trigger your readers!
Also:
@jared-williams has two characters who both experienced sexual trauma (I actually think both were in some kind of slavery). He’s also exploring themes surrounding that, and the…[Read more]

LOL, this is especially funny to me coz Ehud named it “Lord Castle” the first time he was in the Character Castle so like they both love randomly nicknaming 😂👌
Ehud didn’t stop crying until a warm hand squeezed his shoulder. He just wanted to be held, or belong. And boys weren’t supposed to cry everybody made fun of him for being a cry…[Read more]

LOL I love it, Frank and Bob…😂😂😂
And I gotta admit, this is fun. Everyone just had to reveal their deepest regret, and then, BOOM, Saevus goes ballistic.
Saevus pressed his attack forward aggressively. Lord Castle countered, but Saevus blasted at his defense, for wing him back.
Suddenly a swarm of bugs of some sort came f…[Read more]

@jared-williams @e-n-leonard I have one more character to do (this is going to double as his re-introduction to the castle), but after that I’m ready to move on!
I’m going to try to finish his tonight!

E. N. Leonard replied to the topic Character Castle 2.0 in the forum Fantasy Writers 3 years, 4 months ago
I’m done with my characters’ regrets. After they’ve finished any interaction with Avin, I’m going to pull them out during the beginning of Saevus’s battle and plop Mara into the middle of it (she’ll love that).

So… Okay. it’s hard to think of debatable topics cause many of us agree to so much. lol…
Haha, yeah
When a Christian dies, the common platitude is that he/she is with Jesus in heaven now. However, besides when Jesus said to the thief “Today, you will be with me in paradise…”, I do not recollect any other specific verse that…

calidris replied to the topic Fanatical or Fantasy? Fictional of Heretical? in the forum Fantasy Writers 3 years, 4 months ago
@jared-williams I have a few thoughts regarding this!
So for me personally, I wouldn’t feel comfortable writing it, but I don’t think I’d have an issue with reading it, since I know you’re a Christian and you’re dedicated to following Christ (you don’t come across as lukewarm at all XD).
In my opinion, the more prominently God and the Bible…[Read more]

@jared-williams I’m writing Kit’s right now, and I’ll try to do Val’s sometime soon!
I think @inkhorn ‘s characters to still have to share theirs too 🙂

wait… so, did Airu attack Jade, or attack herself? sorry, I probably should be able to read between the lines, but my mind’s apparently not working right now.
Oh, she killed herself. Sorry if that was confusing.

I think it would actually be a good idea to start posting content warnings on posts that have disturbing material in them!
I was actually thinking of putting a content warning on mine before I read any of this!
Yeah, Ku’s ordeal is definitely triggering for us ladies. However, it is an issue that shouldn’t be ign…[Read more]

oh, yeah. though… I haven’t watch all of it yet… I really like how they put that together. Have you heard of Sight & Sounds Theater? They have AMAZING musical productions of Bible stories!!!!!! Like, seriously, worth looking into!

I will agree. Warnings or a buildup are a good idea. I’ll admit that when I was reading that I was kinda like, where on earth is this going…?Also, I’ll give a warning right now-when Saevus’ biggest regret comes in, it’ll be in the middle of a battle, and a sword battle at…[Read more]

calidris replied to the topic Character Castle 2.0 in the forum Fantasy Writers 3 years, 4 months ago
I didn’t mention it, but that’s a huge part of it too. Even if a girl hasn’t experienced that specific kind of trauma, she’s almost certainly experienced some degree of sexual harassment or objectification. This isn’t to say that guys aren’t abused too, but I’m almost 100% certain that in general it’s not this ingrained fear or concern like i…[Read more]

Hey y’all, I live!! Like, mostly XD Everything is okay, but I still don’t feel great so I’m just popping in really quick. I’ll try to make a comeback next week if possible. I really don’t want to miss the greatest regrets thingy, it looks fun!
Thanks for the prayers, I really appreciate that!
