Perhaps my favorite character from my upcoming book: A Testament of Dragons - Roah

#fantasy #fantasywriter #booksky #dragons #characters #cleanbooks #epicfantasy #strongfemalelead #fantasybooks #books
“This world is far too dangerous a thing.”

The white dragon Roah has grown to hate her family’s acts of creation.

When Roah and her father are trapped in a darkly familiar realm, they must face the horrors of the past to find a way back to the new world to stop it from falling to ruin like before.
Pick yourself up. You’re not done yet. Even if you’ve been feeling like it.

Your story isn’t over. You’re still here. You’re not stuck in this world with all those who want you to fail, those who want to see you fall.

They’re stuck in this world watching you rise.

I’ve yet to play the final two episodes of Dispatch.

Once I do, it ends.

Shout out to this wonderful creator whose voice has brightened a number of days and who, in my opinion, has made some of the best overall versions of the songs she covers. Rachel Hardy.

What do you do when you cry out for help, hoping someone will hear, and everyone just turns away?

When you don’t want to be alone. But you have not been given a choice.

When you reach out for aid, but none is offered.

The silence sets in. And my wait begins again.

There is no feeling like a hope rekindled.

Joy floods back into life, light radiates throughout the formerly greyscale moments and everything becomes vibrant again.

All thanks to, not a certainty. But a hope.

Exodus 14:14

“The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.”

You are not fighting alone. God is not against you. Be still and know that He is the Lord. And He will take good care of you.

I wish I could finish books faster. But then, every time I put down a good book, knowing it’s over… I wish I hadn’t finished it so fast. Even if it took me a year. Especially if it took me a year.

I just played the first two episodes of #Dispatch.

Oh. My. Word. It’s so good.

I didn’t realize how much I missed the #telltale kind of interactive storytelling.

I’ve been in a #gaming rut lately, afraid to commit to any real #game with my full attention.

Tonight, I was sucked in start to end.

I bought this book the other day, seemed cool. Anyone know anything about it? Can anyone recommend it?

Graphic Novels still count as #reading.

I have learned a large number of vocabulary words from all my #graphicnovels and #comicbooks.

You can learn from almost anything, but you #learn better when you’re interested.

I need #relationship.

I need #friends to laugh with, people who are #kind to me, people who will care.

But relationship is always #messy. That’s ok. People aren’t perfect. And neither am I.

I’ll fight through the mess, through the stutters and stumbles.

Because I need #people. And they need me.

Just saw Tron: #Ares.

I know I’m a “Youngin’” but my dad showed me the first #Tron on a laptop and took me to see Tron: Legacy in theaters the next day, so it’s not my first Tron #movie. That said:

I liked it! Quite a bit! Solid #action, immaculate visuals, and engaging #story. I give it an 8/10.

T- To those who live in the desert, there is no wonder so great as that of the

R- Rain.

A- A single teardrop of the sky’s sorrow,

I- Is enough to make the thirstiest soul cry out,

N- Not for the refreshment that a single drop can bring, but for the hope of a greater change.

Just thinking about #Mulan (1998) again.

What a great #movie. We have never been against a #strongfemalecharacter in #movies. Just against poorly written ones.

Mulan is allowed to be #different than the soldiers around her, and by embracing that difference and out-thinking them that she excels.

Behold Braem, the great, golden king.

Wounded and exiled into a darkly twisted land, Braem must break through the ice around his daughter’s heart to escape and save their new world, and his youngest son, from being burned to ash.

Meet Braem in my upcoming #fantasy #novel, “A Testament of Dragons”

I made a #spotify #playlist for my favorite character from my upcoming book, Roah. I figured this would be the kind of #vibes that she would listen to, being a somewhat #angsty #dragon with a lot on her mind and a lot of #scars on her heart.

Being left behind does NOT mean you did something wrong.

Some people don’t give their words much weight. Even their promises.

Don’t let their actions, the cuts that mark your heart, define your worth.

Their actions define THEM. They don’t define you.

You are loved.
