I know what you mean about princesses… Somehow I feel cliche writing about them. But yay, my main character is a princess too! Lol. I mean she becomes a kind of queen not too far into my book. But she’s an undercover…
Your story sounds neat! Especially since you are writing with a friend. 🙂 What’s the basic plot?
Yes, I did IEW.…[Read more]

Yeah I’ve read books written by non christian authors and they were good.
But I’ve never read any romance books. Not really my thing, but this books just looks fun! haha! -
Claire replied to the topic Hey Everyone in the forum Introduce Yourself 6 years, 6 months ago
So how did you and @claire-h both get into writing?
@olivia So sorry I just got around to answering this! I saw it and then completely forgot…
Well, I’ve always loved to make up stories and when I was little we would always “act them out” if you will. Then when I was ten, I decided to write a story that we had come up with while playing. I…[Read more]

Hey,
Has anyone ever read
Between the Lines by Jodi Picoult?-
No, I’ve never read it. What’s it about? It sounds interesting though.
-
Okay, I was just wondering if it was any good lol!
here’s a synopsis from Wikipedia. It sounds like it could be good but it also sounds like it could be horrible lol!
Delilah, a 15-year-old teenager, bookworm, and social outcast is obsessed with a fairy tale story about Prince Oliver called Between the Lines. No one is able to understand…[Read more]

@beth20
I haven’t. I usually don’t read in English…-
Okay.
-
-
No I haven’t read it… But I did look it up and read the synopsis. Is the author a Christian? If not, I would be a little leery reading a teen romance. Just my first reaction.
-
Yeah, not sure if she is or not. You have a point haha!
-
Ya, I agree with Claire. It does sound sorta cool (I mean, what isn’t cool about someone talking to a character from a story book?!?!), but it could also be sorta trashy if it isn’t by a Christian author and it’s a teen romance. Sometimes I’ve started books that seem totally fine, and before I finish reading the end of the first page I have to put…[Read more]

@beth20
I know just because the author isn’t a Christian doesn’t mean they don’t write good books, but romances are very different. I agree that the book does look interesting, but ya, I’d just be careful.-
@olivia
Okay! I looked it up on Common sense media (a site like Plugged In, and it looked fine. I just don’t know how good it is. haha

Okay, thanks!

@beth20
Okay, cool. Even if it’s not super good, it sounds okay, so if it’s clean and I had a copy I’d give it a try. 🙂 But it’s up to you of course.
@eitan Okay, thanks.-
Yeah, thank you!

Yup! 🙂

I’m sorry that your mom had a miscarriage! I had a half-sister her name was Ashly, she died when she was three. I don’t remember her though, because it was before me and my siblings. But I know what you mean, about wondering who she would have turned out to be and how much different our lives would have been.
Yeah, we live kinda next to…[Read more]

My youngest brother is only 13 months older than me. Or as I figured out, one year, one month, one week, and one day exactly! Pretty fun to tell people. 🙂
Hahaha that’s funny!

Yes! I like his music too. He writes and sings! He is the same one who did the Resurrection Letters Vol. 1 & 2 and other albums. He also wrote a new book, Adorning the Dark. (It is not fantasy though) -

Yes, that’s great that you still have worship! Our pastor has been pre-recording his sermons and then we listen to them on Sunday mornings as a family. 🙂 Here we are allowed gatherings of 10 people or less, six feet apart.

Yes, that was the movie I watched! It was definitely hard to watch at points, but it was thought provoking and a good reminder.

@eitan –
Sorry, I didn’t understand the question… And nowhere I find the meaning of ”learning contractions”… Can you ask it in other words? 🙂
Contractions are a way to shorten words, like “didn’t” instead of “did not” or “I’m” instead of “I am”. I think English is the only language with them…[Read more]

@olivia That’s so cool that you write worship songs! I think I’ve seen that movie about Paul. Did it have Priscilla and Aquila in it? It was really a challenging and encouraging movie. 🙂 That’s awesome that you want to make an album! Do you sing?
I just hate it when they add in unnecessary things like that. 🙁 But yeah, I’ll definitely have to…[Read more]

JRR Tolkien
Tolkien is a brilliant author, but… wasn’t he Catholic, not Christian? Anyway, I’ll check all the books you’ve recommended and I haven’t yet read. Thank you very much!
Our winter lasts with tons of snow from November to March, so we sorta bundle up half the year to stay warm.
