Sand swirled like a plague of locusts across the plain, spitting against Travis’s goggles. A line of fenceposts and an abandoned bunker contentedly slept while the world died around them.

@Cassandraia great thoughts! And hey, this woman doesn’t believe in being oppressed either. XD There are definitely a lot of men who abuse their role of protector— and a lot of women who abuse their role of nurturer. Even within ‘Christian’ circles. But these are sins inherent with human nature, not masculinity or femininity. Lumping all men…[Read more]

@Daeus-lamb *nods* It’s true writers build their ‘circle’ with people they naturally click with. Trying to build that tight of a community on purpose doesn’t manage itself very well.
That said, I think the guilds are still a fantastic idea. Maybe instead of focusing them primarily on building a tight community they could be focused around…[Read more]

@msqueen8 absolutely being feminine is a strength. It’s living up to your God-ordained role and calling. That takes guts and faith and a whole lot of other things you don’t have if you’re weak.

I love to see characters who are emotionally strong as well as physically, because that’s really more important, and it’s often overlooked or even discouraged in today’s culture.
@r-m-archer you said it. This goes for guys too. ‘Strong’ isn’t determined by how many weapons you’re carrying or how many bad guys you can knock out in a dark alley…[Read more]

As in women are strongest when they are wielding a sword, or doing everything a man can. I think that’s a very narrow definition of strength.
@eden-anderson nailed it girl. Well said.

@noahlitle yep. Femininity is an attitude; a state of the heart. It’s not ultimately about jobs or clothes or anything external. Just like we don’t consider single fathers ‘effeminate’ for being both provider and nurturer for his kids, it’s possible for a woman to do manly things and still be feminine. Sometimes life forces you into situations you…[Read more]

Hey guys! I want my writing family’s input on something writing-related.
You ready for it?
Women in fiction. Particularly in fantasy, where so many of them take on combat roles or other roles commonly filled by men, in the name of offering ‘strong female role models’.
What do you think about this trend? While I was thinking about this I start…[Read more]
