Thanks I’m planning on seven books. Favorite part…well, I guess it would be the learning. It’s kinda weird, but we really can learn a lot about life while writing.
Oh, absolutely. I’ve found I often end up writing the things I’m struggling with. It’s easier to work out your problems through three layers of metaphor and a character XD

Exactly and another part to that is that lesson that I feel is most important, especially now, is what defines right and wrong, ourselves or a greater example.
Yeah I am not sure if they would be cute but definitely someone you want on your side both in peace and war. It is a lot of creatures/races with many sub-groups. My WIP is…[Read more]

That’s a good theme. I think we could all use the reminder that there is some goodness out there sometimes.
I think I write it because I need to convince myself of it XD
Right now I’m working on my reader magnet. It’s a short work and takes place two hundred years before the actual series. Basically, it just shows how the kingdom fell…

That plot sounds really intriguing! How many books are you planning for the series? Are you writing it in third or first person? What’s your outlining process?As you can see, my interest is very much sparked. 🙂
What about you? Do you have a WIP?

Hi Josie! I’m Rose, pleased to meet you!
About my writing…I write fantasy. I try to weave God’s truth into the stories. Common themes in my work are faith, courage, and following your God-given path. One recurring theme is that no one is ever so far gone that God can’t forgive them.
I write fantasy as well!
Those are <…[Read more]

Welcome to the crew!
I really that theme. I am trying to weave morals based on God’s truth into my story and create godly applications. My chief theme is to teach how important it is to always do what is right no matter the cost.
Same here! Although I am doing something different for dwarves. I am using a badger like creature…[Read more]
