I truly feel like I found someone who likes to write an awesome Christian story. I have so many ideas in my head of things to write, other stories. The world writes to entertain and sometimes to instill more worldly values; it's all that it has really. But Christians can write to express their love for God and be a witness to others.

[QUOTE="PeterJames0510, post: 75592366, member: 416739"] Good morning Mayflower, isn't that sweet of you! I truly feel like I found someone who likes to write an awesome Christian story. I have so many ideas in my head of things to write, other stories. The world writes to entertain and sometimes to instill more worldly values; it's all that it has really. But Christians can write to express their love for God and be a witness to others. I like whatever you do with the characters because part of the story has helped me to express some of my ideas and receive my own type of healing in a pure Christian environment. Outlines are good and I love the story we have created; I thank you for your kind words, but you really are the gel because you care about the story and the characters. I really don't mind which direction you take the story or if you start to develop a particular character over another. As a writer, I say you should be free to do what you want with no judgment. :) I do understand, though, that the story should have 'milestones' and an outline like you said. We should enjoy the process of writing, but we don't want our story to go unfinished either! The other thing is that I know you are a very busy gal, so I don't ever want you to feel pressured that you have to answer at a certain time period. I *completely* understand and in fact come Jan 18th, I will be taking up my next seminary course in the book of Isaiah at which time I won't be able to be on as often either. On the other hand, sometimes I can't help it when I have a good writing partner because I want to respond and develop the story and get my feelings out on paper. The quick back and forth helps with getting creative energy out on the table; but the long periods of time also helps to think through scenarios and character development and re-read what has been written already. That's pretty cool on Canteberry Commons, I haven't really done much gaming since Kingdom Hearts 1! lol Thank you for your candor on playing romance in a story. We don't have to do that then.
