What’s the best example of bondage you’ve seen in literature?

You already used the best one, @daeus. XD. It’s so hard to think one, but wait.

I think I’ve got a good one. Jace from the Ilyon Chronicles. To quote what you said, his bondage is, “a fatal weakness like letting other people’s opinions drive how you live.”

He’s a half-Ryric, a membe…[Read more]

@daeus-lamb I got my blog post done this week! Now…I want to write at least 1000 words this week, and finish another blog post. 🙂

@daeus-lamb I want to try this so bad, but I’m taking a break right now. Oh dear. You’re gonna make me get back to writing. I want to so, so bad. Maybe I’ll make some time. I really hope I can at least get 1000 words.

@daeus I have to agree, that it is daunting. Praying for sure! Let us know how that goes for you. And to echo @corissa, I would love to give feedback if you’re looking for it.

@filewriter TCK stands for “third culture kid”. And the technical definition is:

Third culture kid  is a child raised in a culture other than their parents’ (or the culture of the country given on the child’s passport, where they are legally considered native) for a significant part of their early development years.

So I’m pretty sure you would b…[Read more]

@thebookharvester Okay wow. I think you’ve accomplished a rare feat. Making me love your writing style in four paragraphs. Lol wow. But seriously, I love the way you write.

I do this thing where I stare at my Microsoft Word and then words appear and a novel happens.  It’s kinda cool.

Haha. I seriously wish this happened for me.

What are some of…[Read more]

@corkybookworm Lol I bet that would be pretty strange. When I read books with Olivias (every once in a while) it doesn’t seem that strange tho, but probably because Olivia is a more common name. But it was so fun, because I was in a Shakespeare class where one of the MCs is named Olivia. We all chose a character and would read aloud their lines,…[Read more]

Uhh… @filewriter This world of Christian, young writers is very small. XD XD.

So…maybe I do know most of these people. But the connections are various. Yes, I know @caleb-e-king from Ydubs, and there are a TON of people on there. Then I meet their writer friends, and then meet their friends…etc. I know Bekah through Kiki, because she…[Read more]

@corkybookworm Haha yes! I had never heard the name Coralie until I was looking up random names, and when I came across it, I immediately fell in love, and it fits my character so well. Coralie is very independent, sweet, charming, likes to get her own way, and very much reminds of a wild bird. She really values her freedom (which really comes…[Read more]

@kate @r-m-archer @daues-lamb @ethryndal All of you did amazing at answering these questions, but I would like to try and give it a go.

And I’m definitely blaming you guys if I somehow am inspired to write an assassin type character. I’m becoming very much intrigued by what kind of person he/she would be. So good job, @daeus-lamb, at making us…[Read more]

@corkybookworm Welcome! I love your name, by the way. I just so happen to have a future book with a main character named Coralie, and the name is so, so beautiful!

I can be a bit of a grammar Nazi as well. 😉

What kind of stuff do you like to write? Do you have any current WIPs? What are some of your favorite books?

Can’t wait to get to know…[Read more]

@bekks2017 @filewriter I know her…but not irl. XD.

Okay, filewriter, this might make you remember her: She’s one of the authors of Crowned. Ohh. *has just rung a bell* I know who’s the one who follows you on Spotify. It’s Kiki, the other writer of Crowned, who I’ve also told you a ton about. And she’s the one who made the Classified cover  for…[Read more]

@bekk2017 Welcome, welcome, welcome dearest!!!

A little-known fact about me is that I am a classically trained singer who can sing opera when I want to. XD

How did I not know this??? Wow. That’s seriously awesome, but I had no idea.

And…the question. XD. You’re throwing it right back at me. This is extremely tough. Oh dear….

“The quiet and…[Read more]

Well…I epically failed my goal. *face desks* As an excuse, this week was crazy busy, and then I was doing a bunch of stuff. So…my blog post didn’t happen.

This week, I want to get the blog post done, and start outlining a short story idea. We’re  traveling to Kentucky this week, so I have literally no idea how much time I’ll have.

I could…[Read more]

@daeus-lamb Wow. That turned out amazing. Very good job, everyone!

@filewriter Might want  to check this  out if you want to join a guild. 🙂

@filewriter You’re here!!!! I didn’t know if you would join or not, but this is AWESOME. You’ll love this place. *dances* I’m just so happy you’re on SE now.

I’m envisioning the last sunrise being super powerful because it’s the last one. I think it would be soo cool if it was super bright because of a culmination of all the light being wrapped up in one sunrise, if that makes sense.

And yes, I agree  with @daeus-lamb that the idea of having it be from a child’s POV would make it really powerful. And…[Read more]

Saxon Scribes sounds good to me. 🙂

@ethryandal I love that idea, that he’s the one who’s planning the last sunrise.

All of these ideas are great. I’m loving this already! And the final sunrise idea is soo cool. Hmm, I get what you mean, Sarah. *thinks* How can that work? Maybe it’s violent like the blood of a battle that happened during the night, that is finally over? Idk. I…[Read more]
