I’d try it too!

Thanks! 🙂

I read it! FINALLY. I’m sorry it took me so long.

Great job. It’s a very interesting story, and unique from most foster stories. I like how she’s Christian. I think that’s super unique and a neat perspective.

My family has been fostering for years, so I know quite a bit about some of this. However, my knowledge is completely…[Read more]

Great, thanks.

Thanks again for everything, I have almost everything I need to get back to wrestling with my story. *sighs* one more thing.

With the idea of Jane having once been adopted, what are some reasons it would fall through. I mean, I can think of some reasons like, everyone dies. But that’s drastic, cliche, and obvious. So, any ideas?

Okay, I will try to work with that number. It actually fits perfectly with what was going on in my head so that’s great.

As for why she hasn’t been adopted, I don’t know. Is there anything I could add to her character that would explain that without changing her drastically? Let me word that better. Is there a reason for a kid to go…[Read more]

Hi, Katy. Okay, in reply to each of your points:

1. Thanks
2. Yes, it’s crazy I know. I wanted it to be an almost unbelievable number. If you think it’s absolutely impossible, what number would you suggest? I want it to be larger than normal, but still within the realms of possibility.
3. Did I actually say she was albino? I didn’t…

He’d definitely still be able to walk and use his other arm. It just couldn’t be anything too strenuous and probably couldn’t (or shouldn’t anyway) run.

@w-o-holmes

I’m slightly unsure of whether you’re being serious or not 😛

A broken collarbone won’t paralyse you. Though he might have difficulty eating if he’s not used to only…[Read more]

My brother broke his collar bone, so did my sister. It’s very painful, but it’s not too bad as long as you take car of it. My brother was sent home with a sling and some pain meds from the ER, and that’s all. He couldn’t do anything strenuous for a long time with it, but it wasn’t life threatening. I’m no expert on it however, I’d…[Read more]

I have no personal experience with broken collarbone but I am a first aid officer so I am somewhat knowledgeable about it.

Essentially the only thing that can be done for a collarbone is to put the arm in a sling (here we use St John sling for first aid and later on a specialised sling can be used, but your world doesn’t sound like…[Read more]

I’ve used the Mayo Clinic as a resource before. That might help. However, I haven’t experienced this myself so I cannot help you from personal experience.

@katy-walker: 🙂

Kk I must’ve misunderstood about the music, but that’s still sweet! Haha, your swing song is adorable! <3

I’m so happy to hear about this group you’re supporting and what they’re doing. The battle against is abortion is such a worthy one! Here’s a link to my…[Read more]

Generally, I think stories should begin close to the “moment of change” so there is some time showing the “ordinary world” before your main character goes into the adventure of the plot. Backstory can be sprinkled in bits and pieces throughout the story. There’s nothing set in stone, of course, but rule of thumb for me is that if…[Read more]

And yes I agree with @banana-peacock-warrior that I love your profile pic!!

@banana-peacock-warrior  I didn’t know that was your name!! Though you probably told me and I just forgot! LOL!! That’s a really pretty name!! 😯

Your WIP sounds great! Fantasy is so much…[Read more]

Awww. . . .he sounds so cute!!!!

Yeah. I get what you mean. I know sometimes there is a song I like, but I don’t particularly like the original artist’s version.

Wow that’s cool!! I sometimes memorize stuff like that too. Probably not that much though.

Contemporary is like modern times. It describes like the history from like 1945…[Read more]

How old is your little boy?

I like to write all Christian. My favorite genres are Historical Fiction, Romance, Mystery, Contemporary and Fantasy. I love George MacDonald’s books!! They’re some of my favorites.

I only listen to Christian music. I like Contemporary Christian and Christian pop. Do you have any favorite music…[Read more]

Hi! I’m the first one here I see! Welcome to story Embers. What genres do you like to write/read in best? What kind of music do you like?
