I have thought a little more about the question:

Is it possible to maintain innocence without living in ignorance?

There are two things which I may suggest as to speak to that question.

James writes:
Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: [James 1:13 KJV]

First of all, excellently made argument! The use of scripture is great, as it should be the only thing used in primary theological debates.

So when you address God limiting his atonement, also known as ‘limited atonement’ I think we disagree. Also, it should be noted that the use of limited is a poor rep…[Read more]

Daeus wrote a great article about depicting violence:

How Should Christian Authors Depict Violence?

He raises some valid points, so I defer.

I recommend reading 1 John chapter 5 on salvation and the security we have in belief, and the evidence that we who accept Jesus as Savior are children of God.

Whoever has the Son…[Read more]

@rose-colored-fancy

Gotta say I love this!

Also, I just saw your (?) idea of making the captive someone that the characters hate/are afraid of. I think that could be really cool! (Already is, obviously). I might have to jump to Quin/Qatar at the end of the book, so we’ll see how this goes. 🙂 It shouldn’t be too much of a jump, but if any of…[Read more]

I was thinking, it might be fun if we just have all the villains in there instead of a shapeshifter! Then after they’re freed we can have a bit of interaction, just for the chaos of it all XD

Aydin was obviously in three different stages of internal turmoil and there was nothing I could do to fix that. Or well, there…[Read more]

@obrian-of-the-surface-world,

Aw, I’m glad that you’re healing. I’m sure that’s tough. 🙁

@joelle-stone

I have good days and times when I just struggle in my humanness from missing her.  The Lord does help me in that pain.  I am going through a Bible study called “Finding Meaning in Mourning” and being open to God’s healing.  There are many things about her death that I cannot fully express because a lot has come to light since th…[Read more]

@obrian-of-the-surface-world,

Heh heh, I’ve been caught… 😛 That’s a good idea, tho – I might try it. 🙂

(BTW, how are you doing since your mom died?)

*flushes* Uh, it wasn’t spectacular, but it was a lot of fun. 😛

@denali-christianson,

I DOOO LIVE IN THE MOUNTAINS!!!!!!!!!!! Saddddd I hope you get to live near them someday!!!

😛 I suppose I do live near them, just not in them like I’d prefer. Heh, funny story: since I’ve grown up with mountains around me (literally all around me – there is NO horizon that’s not broken by mountains), when my fam and I we…[Read more]

@joelle-stone

Okay, Joelle… I caught you mentioning “audio book”.  Please do it!  Share samples in the “Audio Cinema”!

https://storyembers.org/groups/fantasy-writers/forum/topic/audio-cinema/

We would love to hear them!

For those who don’t know, Joelle did a spectacular job with a recording from a short fiction piece she did entitled “…[Read more]

@denali-Christianson

We definitely should!!!!

Yeah, we loved filming. It’s funny tho, cause whenever you show someone your movie, it never really means what it meant to you and the other people who made it cause it’s  the experience that’s just as much fun as the actual work.

Now what did you do for music? We could never post our works just c…[Read more]

@emily-waldorf

Book! I believe it’s in the gardens at Minas Tirith when Faramir and Eowyn, you know, fall in love…

@denali-Christianson

Yeah, maybe one day we can do a joint project 😂😂.

Yeah basically we just had a camera and put it together on IMovie. You sound like you got more specialized stuff. Once you got it on YouTube send me the link!

@denali-christianson is your quote a book or movie Faramir quote? It sounds like the book, but I can’t place it…

@crazywriter

No, we were pretty shabby ourselves. For some reason I was wearing ridiculously baggy sweatpants and a sweater, and well….it’s kinda embarrassing now. But if was fun.

LOLLLL that’s the best story I’ve ever heard!!!! XD Y’all had bad costumes and we had a bad set. We make a great team! XD

@joelle-stone @emily-Waldorf

Yeah, I really enjoy my siblings. We never had anything too intense with teasing, but it’s safe to say I never was treated like your typical youngest. So yeah.

That’s awesome Joelle! I had a 65k word book I almost finished but really wasn’t satisfied with where it was going, and felt like it had lost its purpo…[Read more]

@emily-waldorf,

Irad and Gilead. 🙂 XD ATOTB probably won’t be finished until then either. XD

Yep, I’ve finished two 80K novels, but neither of them were worth showing to too many people. 😉 You?

@joelle-stone that sounds like a cool story! What are the princes’ names? Thank you! I warn you, though, I take forever to write. It probably won’t be until 2023.

So…have you finished a novel or novels?
