@j-parkhurst Thanks for the words of warning. I shall beware. 😛
And wow, a script? That sounds so cool!

@emma-starr Ooh, that’s a hard question to answer. Honestly, I’m not sure if it has changed. I do have more of an appreciation for books like The Hunger Games that I of course didn’t read when I was younger. But if anything, I’ve come to appreciate children’s books more. (Juvenile fiction, not picture books :P) I hold by the moral that a good chil…[Read more]

@j-parkhurst Yes, English grammar is my structure; I don’t really have any rules for which language I use, but I try not to use obvious counterparts (for example, when the French word is quite close to the English word). It’s more whatever sounds aesthetically right to me.
If I planned to use this language a lot I would probably set up some mor…[Read more]

@kayla-joy Those are magnificent. 😍😍 Horse’s heads can be really hard (though it’s the legs that always scare me…)
I hope no one minds me sharing more art? This is, as I call her, our dearest Puzzle (AKA Puz Wuz, or The Puz).

I’m also quite proud of this one. I drew it from a photograph of an elk in a book about Yellowstone.

@emma-starr I know what you mean about Narnia. It feels like it influenced the very way I think, even how I used to play as a child (though my “British accent” was really weird 😆). My favorite book is probably either The Horse and His Boy or the Dawn Treader, though I’m very fond of The Last Battle as well. More so than when I was young. 😀

@j-parkhurst Me! Me! I’m inventing a language that’s a strange mix of French, Irish Gaelic, and English for a people I call the Dranga. It’s not really a coordinated effort, though—more like transmogrifying an English sentence. For example:
“Mi togannar a chec muid.”
which means “I will take you to our headquarters/…[Read more]

@morgan-tailor Did I hear MARVEL?! 😃 AHHHH *ahem* Anyway, yeah, I like Marvel. *whispers* INFINITY WARS
That’s so cool that you’e going to be a film major! I plan to do acting myself. It combines my love of stories with one of my favorite mediums. 😀
Also, what’s your MBTI type? 🙂

That’s so cool that you do portraits! Are they watercolor? Oils?
I love drawing faces (most of my doodle pages have eyes and faces everywhere), but I just use my mechanical pencil. For everything.

Lady Iliara replied to the topic Hi everyone 😀 in the forum Introduce Yourself 8 years, 6 months ago
@sam-kowal I’ve read Ranger’s Apprentice! I find so few who have… My favorite might be The Burning Bridge or maybe The Battle for Skandia.
Actually, for a friend’s birthday I wrote a short story called The Hibernian Plot, where her and I infiltrate a Hibernian castle along with Halt and Gilan. 😄

@j-parkhurst Well…I wouldn’t say…that is, I can’t really read hardly any Hebrew, and I have no idea how to use the little “dots” that show up around the different letters. I’m using Duolingo, and I think I’ve only gotten through three lessons.
I am familiar though with more of the transliterated words from Bible reading and such, like you sai…[Read more]

Lady Iliara replied to the topic The Importance of Fantasy in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 6 months ago
Fantasy is my favorite genre to write and it ends up being what I read most of the time as well. Lord of the Rings and Narnia were the two biggest influences on me, as well as Madeleine L’Engle and M.I. McAllister.
I think the beauty of fantasy is the power to inspire. Fantasy is focused on the conflict between good and evil, with a world worth s…[Read more]

Hello @j-parkhurst! Wow! It’s really cool that you like Hebrew! I just started learning it recently. But my vocabulary is limited.

(A rough approximation of what I wanted to say, since I have no idea how to use plurals yet. 😄)

Lady Iliara replied to the topic Any other poets out there??? *eagerly searches the horizon* in the forum Poetry Discussions 8 years, 6 months ago
@scribbles I write poetry, but not really as a planned effort…It’s usually a writing assignment that prompts it, and then it just turns out different every time. 😛 I recently wrote a tragic poem in iambic pentameter about a selkie, but I’ve also written a rhyming ballad about fighting a red dragon. So, y’know. But my forte is rhyming coupl…[Read more]

I is an artist! *jumps up and down* I really like drawing faces, but I do other things too. This is another Aetherlight player 😃

And I made this on Adobe Draw. It’s a little comic strip based on something that “happened” in game 😛
