Nope! ENTJ! *double checks what he’d said earlier* Definitely ENTJ.

“Secondly, YAY! I will add you to the list. If you are sure. I don’t want you to overload yourself and then get stressed out (because I do that all the time and it stinks).” And thank you… but I’ll be good. Honestly my schedule is not full so much as un…[Read more]

And likewise. *bows*

*scratches head* *does the ENTJ thing of looking at his schedule and imagining he has TONS of time to spare* *squints* *analyzes the time he really has* *squints again* *comes to a decision*

Okay! Theoretically I can fit hours more of work into my schedule and still have time to spare. And this project calls my name… without…[Read more]

@ericawordsmith

Okay, so part of this might have to do with personal conviction… Thus, I understand your discomfort with this idea… but…

In Solo, the characters ended on a really sad note, maybe even somewhat depressing. But not a hopeless note. Because even though everyone was still a bad guy, they were alive. This leaves room for…[Read more]

@missfaeriekaiti

THANK YOU!!!

@ericawordsmith

So, I understand what you’re saying, about the darkness of stories having a hopeful (even if minuscule) conclusion… but I don’t agree one-hundred percent. I think it’s fine for readers to leave the story feeling somewhat depressed about the life of my characters. Without a hope for them. I think that within the context of life,…[Read more]

@ericawordsmith

Hey! I wish I could sit on a roof… that sounds like heaven. So long as it’s cool out.

Now! I read all of what you said, and do agree. And I acknowledge 🙂

On your last question, I do have something to add… So as to what truth we portray, whatever it is it is a reflection of the truth of God, so long as it is truth. We are…[Read more]

@brandon-miller

Thank you… I will write a formal goodbye to Rillumen, and then you can remove me… for a time.

@ericawordsmith

Thanks! Glad that helped…

And in reply to where you said: This is where I know for me, I see truth, but this also is not a one-size-fits-all…

Like you said, this post needs to be read in understanding of what the first one laid down… and with that in mind, I have clarified that it’s not a one size fits all… but… when…[Read more]

Believe me… I have plenty of words here… but not the time space to write them. But be sure that when I speak, I will not be brief.

@anne-of-lothlorien

Thank you! 🙂

@ericawordsmith

*nods* Thank you.

I acknowledge all of what you say with an affirmative. But right now I don’t have everything I need to answer in full. Thanks 🙂

Okay… I have thoughts… but I don’t want to muddy any waters. I’ll observe from a distance until to becomes too much to bear.

@ericawordsmith

Then you will meet my fiery wrath.

@daeus-lamb @jane-maree @ericawordsmith @taylorclogston @hope-ann

Okay… in my last post I laid out an argument that theme is often misrepresented. I then put forth a definition for what theme is, defining it by the plot, characters, their arcs, and the intricate patterns of the character interactions in a world.

But halfway through writing t…[Read more]

Yes! Seeing them progress and learn is beautiful! And then forming the relationship with the little kid. They are ADORABLE!

I hope to be able to go to some writing conferences some day… sorry. I have little words tonight. I am quite tired after teaching class and have little time left on the computer.

@silverdragon, Cool! It’s a pleasure to meet you… though I fear I may not have the chance to get to know you sooner…

@pookiemonster, YES! It is a great book! I’ve gotten about halfway through! Well written… Sorry I don’t have more words tonight… I’m really tired and have little time.

@corkybookworm, I’ll pass on the…[Read more]

@anne-of-lothlorien

If I’m right, it was with hope, but not Instagram.

@anne-of-lothlorien

Okay… so, I might actually have seen you in a picture. Secondly I picture people by their profile. So that image is heavily tied to their voice in my head.

@ericawordsmith

Yeah… I know. It’ll take mental fortification to make it through the test…

YES!!!! THE KIDS ARE AMAZING! Lots of fun…

And we’ve been to one or two conferences in the past (I think), but not recently.
