Hello! I’ve been writing some poems and it’s my first time to share some of them. Here’s one that I’d love to share. This is my first time and attempt to write a sonnet and I hope I can learn and improve in the future. 🙂
Lonely Sonnet
The moonlight brushed up across his pale face
As his trembling soul could not recover
He dreamt about…[Read more]

Hi guys,
I just finished a mini collection of five poems inspired by The Scarlet Letter. I am submitting it to a young authors contest for my homeschool group, but the contest isn’t that intense or anything (as far as I know, only a few other people have signed up). Still, I would like to get some feedback on it. I mainly want to know if the…[Read more]

That was really good! I enjoyed it a lot, and I say that you have a knack for writing poetry. The fact that it was based on something on LotR helped too. 🙂

Thank you, Kylie! That means a lot! I actually got it published on Kingdom Pen last month: https://kingdompen.org/the-party-tree-a-poem/

Hello, historical fiction community. I’m Tudor, I live in Germany, and I’ve always had a passion for history, especially American history (Revolutionary War, California Gold Rush, Civil War, Wild West, Indian Wars, you name it). The old KJV language has been a major influence on my writing style (reading the Bible in English has been a great way…[Read more]

Yay, I’m so glad my suggestion helped! 🙂 And yes, I would definitely want to keep reading! (I’ve read a lot of books from that time period too, so I can totally relate with it becoming your style 😉 ) I saw that you mentioned The Hidden Hand in your introduction thread. It’s one of my favorites too! Your book so far reminds me a lot of…[Read more]

Oh, and I forgot to mention that I do read a lot of books written in the 1800s and early 1900s, and that’s kind of become my style. 🙂 I don’t know if it’s annoying to most modern day readers, but I was hoping since the book was set in that historical era, that people’d be okay with it.

@claire-h WOW, thanks so much! This was super helpful.
I think one of my problems was that the Frys where so entertaining that I didn’t want to make light of the guy being shot and missing, and I overcompensated on the melodrama, whoops. I toned them both down a little now. I do want the story to be somewhat realistic, although I do have a fairly…[Read more]

Thank you for sharing your work! I know it takes a lot of courage sometimes. 🙂 I really enjoyed this snippet! Great job with the characters …and the mysterious happenings. Mr. and Mrs. Bill Fry are so entertaining. XD So here are the few thoughts I had:
First off, this story reads like it was written in the 1800s. Have you read a lot…[Read more]
