No, not too critical. Thank you for your considerate reply! I think your story themes sounds great! It reminds me a lot of Pilgrim’s Progress. The parallels are very easy to see, and it sounds like a really interesting story.

@jared-williams

Hey Jared!

Its an interesting idea, and the skeleton of the story is great. I think something you would need to ponder, however, is the biblical themes you portray. Now I know no novel, written by a Christian or not, is imperfect, but it would do Christian authors well to portray biblical truth as best they can.

Now maybe you…[Read more]

XD Though I wouldn’t be surprised if Ophelia has a cat in her bag…@rose-colored-fancy?

Hehe. Nice question.

My high fantasy has a lot of normal creatures you’d find here on earth, but also plenty of new fantasy creatures. The legendary ones are called the creatures of Myf, and they are pretty spectacular. I’ve only created a few of them so far, however.

Saliero (name derived from the latin word for frog – Salientia) – also known…[Read more]

Hope this works.

“It smells good.”

I turned in surprise. Hanniumm was on his feet, leaning up against one of the chairs.

I dropped the stirring stick and rushed to his side. “Hanniumm! How are y…[Read more]

“I hear snakes don’t like cats.  Does somebody have a cat we could toss down there and…” [looks around at all of the glares and frowns] “What? Okay…okay! Just brainstorming here. I’ll see myself out.” 😉

@jared-williams

Hi Jared,

I totally agree. I am a writer-in-progress with much need of help from fellow authors and readers.
This is my second pass through the “editing” of my WIP, and I’ve taken to doing dramatic recordings of it with atmospheric background and music.  I think it helps me visualize not just what is going on in the foreground,…[Read more]

@inkhorn

No worries, the Castle has a great personality xD I don’t think it needs to do anything to Erik to be entertained by him, so I will leave him to his own devices until an opportunity for interaction arises xD

@obrian-of-the-surface-world

I’m new to the forum, so I hope I’m doing this correct, but I love this idea of posting audio clips. I hope to put one up soon… though I may not have much time to go back and listen to all the wonderful recordings prior to this…

I was enthralled by your writing – however, the background sounds were a bit too much…[Read more]

@merieshenanigans

*smiles sheepishly* Maybe I should have waited a couple more minutes before releasing the snakes. *embarrassed laugh* xD

@rose-colored-fancy

And the quota for blatant fourth-wall-breaking has been filled for the week XD Somehow we end up shattering the fourth wall with quite alarming frequency, it’s great XD

XD The fourth w…[Read more]

@rose-colored-fancy

that’s okay! I did that with Quin and Qatar, too.  😀

@mamaauthoress

Well, not a whole lot XD

@inkhorn , @merieshenanigans , and me dropped in our characters. They’ve all been hanging around, kinda talking to each other a bit. Merie’s character is off in another room but all the others are together in a library.

The castle just turned off the lights and sent snakes at them. We’re still just…[Read more]

@emily-waldorf

I’ll try to write something else soon! I just really, really can’t think of what my characters would do next XD

Oh gosh … I’m so sorry — I forgot about this. 😅

What’s happening right now? I can’t really read it all (stupid overwhelming disorder); could I have a summary, please? Thanks!
