Thank you so much for commenting.

@k-a-grey

I can see where you are coming from with Harry Potter, and I have some good friends who feel the same way. Hold strong to those convictions!

I appreciate you being willing to beta read my novel! I know reading a novel is a big ask, so whatever you can get done would be greatly appreciated. I know some…[Read more]

@jared-williams Hello! Soo, I’m not much of a romance reader… or a fantasy reader for that matter (unless The Chronicles of Narnia and Nadine Brandes’ Fawkes count 😅).  Yes, I joined the group Romance Writers just so I could join the conversation (don’t hate on me please).  But anywaayyy…. I’ve been stalking  following this conversation bec…[Read more]

Arsene listened as the boy explained his plans.

“Let me stop you right there.” Arsene interrupted.

Holding up three fingers, Arsene started. “One: Arsene the insane, Arsene the crazy, Arsene the fool. At this point, unhinged is an accomplishment. Second: I’m the one who slipped our shares into your pocket. I did it all without a warrant, so sham…[Read more]

@jared-williams,

*thumbs up*

(Dude I just gave Kallun an actual sister and he doesn’t know he has one at all.)

K’Nika smiked And ate an onion.

If I am understanding your question, yes I think so.

Okay, I’m glad to hear it (it seems pretty obvious to me that gods and demons etc.. are not things the bible is okay with us reading, but many Christians claim Sanderson’s Mistborn and Stormlight are fine, despite the fact that Mistborn is full of gods, and Stormlight literally…[Read more]

Julian sighed and threw them over his shoulder.

“Sorry Julian, we just don’t want you poisoning us again,” Lacey mumbled

@noah-cochran

If I am understanding your question, yes I think so.

Thank you so much for going more in depth into your concepts and beliefs on the subject. It has cleared up some confusion on my part and some pre-conceived assumptions. And thank you so much for being so gracious with your response. You are correct that over the internet tone…[Read more]

@jared-williams

Before I give a brief reply, I’d like to say a couple things.

First, using the phrase ‘taking in magical content is a sin’ is such a broad phrase that it was not wise for me to say it. So my apologies.

Secondly, let me just say, Jared, that I have never seen this argument for why magic is okay before (it’s usually vernacular and…[Read more]

I apologize. That last part came across a lot more strongly than I intended.

I know you aren’t purposefully impugning my moral standing or anything of the sort and that you mean well.

Its just the way you word things…

I applaud you for your position and your conviction, and I do not want to take that away from you. Far from it. Hold…[Read more]

I understand your interpretation and position on the issue, but I disagree with the severity and application of your position. Nor do I believe it is a matter of sin but of conviction. Just as it would be wrong for a baptist to claim that dancing or playing cards is a sin for any Christian to do (David danced in the streets and it is used multiple…[Read more]

Soooooooo…

I very much intentionally, with sound mind and full thought and definitely full intention – did I mention that? – deliberately pulled the pin out of my smoke grenade. Because you are only supposed to handle these if you are going to use them.

Now, in my favor, these aren’t the exploding exploding kinds. But the shell definitely…[Read more]

in fear of becoming like the pharisees, please consider my book for its main points and not its sub-sub-sub-sub-minor-sub-points.

I understand your point by that comment, but that is not an apt analogy in this context. Pharisees were concerned with following the letter of the law to gain power and glory in the eyes of men. I am concerned with what…[Read more]

the antagonist uses the curses.

the king uses the blessing.  The king is of a race that is practically immortal, they live so long. They are known as a wise and righteous race and were chosen long ago as defenders of the truth. As such, they were gifted the ability to use blessings.

Curses/blessings are a VERY SMALL part of the story…[Read more]

The antagonist.

He grabbed the knife by his its blade!

Alessio leapt back, breathing heavily as the knife vanished in Arsene’s hand, disintegrated almost instantly. All the color drained from his face as he imagined what could happen if Arsene used his powers on him.

“Wow, nice acting skills, ten points. You can act out your drama play, when I’m sure nobod…[Read more]

@jared-williams  CONGRATULATIONS on finishing it!!!!!!

I won’t be able to help you out; I’m sorry. Thanks for thinking of me, though.

Sherlock discovered how hard he could hit the brakes, coming to a stop. The idiot, who was in the road, took what looked like a cane/sword (Sherlock didn’t know which) and tapped the car hood. He scratched the back of his head, as he marveled at the “borrowed” car.

Ugh, I’m becoming more like Arsene, Sherlock thought. “You’re blocking the road!”…[Read more]
