Yes, but I’m not sure how she knows how to. 😂😂  I’m kidding, she has this book (yes, she knows how to read, but just not Tolstoy) that shows her how to do stuff.  It’s actually a real book–The Dangerous Book for Boys.  The family who lived there before the US fell into chaos had a son who owned that.

@daeus-lamb

It’s so funny, there’s like this long silence now 😂

@claire-h

I’m still coming up with the story’s groundwork, but I would also add that not all of the humans are evil–the government just lost control, but there are still some who have a sense of right and wrong.

@claire-h

Basically, a girl survives in the wilderness and pretends to belong to a family in a picture frame that was in the old, abandoned house she found.  And the “they” on the map are the humans, who have basically lost their morality.  She was running from them.

@anne-of-lothlorien

Couldn’t agree more!! 😂😉😋  LOTR and AOGG are the best. Books. Ever.

@claire-h

Btw, the names on the map are pretty rudimentary because my character was raised with little to no education.  Just wanted to clarify so I didn’t seem incredibly uncreative. 😛

@anne-of-lothlorien

You should be Anne of Avonlea instead!  I’m kidding, I’d rather live in Lothlorien personally. 🙂  It’s my FAVORITE place ever!!!

@anne-of-lothlorien, @melodyjoy

Let me just say I agree with y’all about the prince in Beauty and the Beast! 😂

And welcome, Anne!

Make that three! 😄

The autumn forests, when the aspens turn gold.

@claire-h

Btw, I love your forum signature. 😍  I always got to remember that.

@claire-h

All right, here’s the map.  I put a filter on it to make it more clear.  If you have trouble reading anything, shout out to me.  Go crazy with fonts and colors and designs–this is to practice with, after all. 😉  Do whatever you want with it.

Oh, real quick, “the North” is where the “bad guys” live (which is “their” on the map), so i…[Read more]

@claire-h

Gotcha.  We can just do it on here. 👍

@claire-h

Cool!  Do you have a preference?  Through email or SE?  Cause I don’t really mind.

Belated welcome:

Hey Zee!  I love it when new people join!!  And age doesn’t matter at all–it’s awesome to have many different perspectives from all different ages, right?

Btw, your website looks super cool!  And so does Sevia–is it based off of a real place?

@claire-h

Hey Claire!  I’m interested in graphic design, but I’ve never really looked into it a lot.  Do you do maps?  (Is that hard to do with graphic design??)  I’ll send a pic of mine (which isn’t very detailed;  it’s just a clearing in the woods and the outskirts) in a minute.  Let me draw it first… 😋

Just wondering.  And if you don’t…[Read more]

Sounds good, Wingiby!

@hope-ann

Well, if anyone’s seen Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame, they’d know that Thanos is one of the best villains ever. 😋  But really, he is.  I think what makes him such a great villain is his strong goal:  to destroy half of the population to make life better for the other half.  Obviously, that’s evil, but he didn’t have evil int…[Read more]

@mariposa

I think I’ve been on here for two months…? 😄  Quarantine is messing with my brain! 😝

@selah-chelyah

Hey Selah, sorry I didn’t get back to you.  I don’t have much going on, so I’m up for word wars if you are. 👍
