@wordsmith, great! I actually wasn’t able to read it, (because the page is blocked, and my parents don’t allow just any blog (ok, not just any)) but good job for meeting your goal!

@emma-starr I haven’t. Never even heard of it. Sorry.

@snapper, congrats!

@andrew, nice poem!

@evelyn, I write poetry some times, and I took The Grammar of Poetry, and I had to learn all about meter, but it made it so confusing, so I usually actually skip meter. Bad, I know. But poetry still sounds good without it. I couldn’t tell if Andrew had it or not.

@andrew, I already have first names, it just is tricky to make a last name that fits the first name and still sounds cool. Of course, the story I need names for takes place in earth, but I still like cool names.

@andrew, no, none of my protagonists are amazing. They are all weak (ok, some get somewhat amazing as the story goes on.) My current protagonist has a serious wound on his back and arm that he’s trying to keep hidden, even though it hinders all his actions. No, my MC likes reading about this super amazing guy. Sorry if that was…[Read more]

@andrew, cool names! I’m no good at making up names, especially last names. I still need good last names, something like Igiby, Baudelaire, or Pevensie. I love those last names. Too bad Andrew Peterson, Lemony Snicket, and C.S. Lewis already used them.

@wordsmith, you should know when they start another guild war.

@andrew, the main character of my current novel is this guy who loves talking/thinking about his favorite books (just like me), which is an extremely dumb series where the main character is super amazing and everyone else is frail and foolish.

Does this sound dumb? This series that my MC loves doesn’t really affect the story that much, though it…[Read more]

I also LOVE the Wingfeather Saga.

So, Wordsmith, every week (I think) there is a new activity/exercise for you to do that helps you with your writing. There are different forums for Rillumen members, such as a critique forum and an accountability forum where you bug people to keep working (or something like that). We…[Read more]

Green Men are sooo cool, but time walkers are even cooler.

@brandon-miller, I want to read his nonfiction also! Unfortunately, our library doesn’t have them, and I don’t know anyone who has them who I could borrow them from. I’m out of spending money. 🙁

@brandon-miller and @wordsmith

Is the Order from The Door Before (100 Cupboards Prequel) also in Ashtown Burials? Or is my guess way off?

@brandon-miller, you need to read Outlaws of Time! Its really good.

@zanzibee, I don’t think you would need a villain, but I’ll tag a few guides who would know much better than me.

@katthewriter, I should have noticed that! I see I’m not a very good editor.

I vote Rilluminites.

My favorite artist is Norman Rockwell, just because… well, I like his art. Why else does someone like an artist?

@wordsmith, hey!

N. D. Wilson is not my favorite either, but he is my second favorite. I actually am rereading 100 Cupboards over again currently.

@katthewriter, good job. I just wanted to mention you missed a capital at the beginning of the fourth paragraph. I have a lot more punctuation mistakes, but that lowercase ‘t’ was just bugging me.
