And even those of you who are keeping it all mum . . . well, that's tremendously intriguing as well! Very eager to read all of your work.<br /><br />@Gracie: Yes, an imp is like a mischievous little sprite or Faerie. And a Goldstone Wood Imp is one of the core, most enthusiastic fans of Goldstone Wood! And we are always eager to add new Imps to that number, so we are happy to have you join us! :D<br /><br />To clarify--M.J. Morgan's wonderful project is an "animatic," not an "animation." So, from what I understand, it will be still images depicting how an animation *would look* if finished. More like a storyboard with voices and music. (Correct me if I'm wrong, Melanie!)<br /><br />And ghost ryter, you may CERTAINLY send in illustrations with your fan fiction submission! I will be very happy to post them.Anne Elisabeth Stenglhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09462605949792523331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-26707890703369857212014-07-28T19:34:38.743-04:002014-07-28T19:34:38.743-04:00Am I allowed to send in an illustration with a sub...Am I allowed to send in an illustration with a submission to the fan-fiction contest?ghost ryterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08479200993336583174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-8374159415596671682014-07-22T19:54:57.057-04:002014-07-22T19:54:57.057-04:00@Hannah

I won't even try.

It's tentatively called A Beauty Unforgotten. We'll see. I'm not entirely satisfied with the story itself, but perhaps with a bit more editing, I'll feel its good enough to send in!<br />Praying your editing goes well!! I'm almost to that stage as I'm nearly finished writing my full-length novel! Eek! I'm so excited! :)<br /><br />God bless!!Shantelle Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01671416965777525382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-46242683264506144742014-07-22T11:27:22.028-04:002014-07-22T11:27:22.028-04:00Your cats are ever the cutest things! : )
Right n...Your cats are ever the cutest things! : )<br /><br />Right now I'm finishing up my last fan-fic (I have two poems, and another story, and I'll be sending them all in real soon). After that, I'll be devoting full attention to my Five Enchanted Roses stories. For one of them, I'm playing around with the title Of Thorns & Roses, but now I'm wondering if maybe too many other people are going to be using like titles. Hm.<br /><br />Good luck with you gallery work and edits and whatnot! I know God will be guiding you.<br /><br />Oh, and... an animated musical for Heartless? I'm going to EXPLODE with excitement!!ghost ryterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08479200993336583174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-28562452319270619512014-07-22T00:07:18.390-04:002014-07-22T00:07:18.390-04:00I'm pretty sure most already know what I'm...I'm pretty sure most already know what I'm up to, so I'll break it down briefly (mostly so I have my own written to-do list that people can hold me accountable for). The animatic is going well, I'm currently half-done the rough sketches of the storyboard panels, I need to finish the other half then go over it cleanly, and, if I have time, employ shading. Prospective deadline is end of July.<br /><br />Because of time constraints, I'm only submitting one fan fiction this year (it's become a bit of a tradition for me now). Though, hopefully it'll turn out half-decent. <br /><br />The rest of the year will be devoted to my entry for Five Enchanted Roses. However, I'm keeping that puppy super hush-hush, so nobody's getting squat information from me. ;)<br /><br />This, all the while preparing for a convention/conference in Canada to hopefully get a job, attending to resumes and portfolio DVDs and websites and applications, and all the other getting a job-related stuff I must attend to. So super duper busy.<br /><br />Anne Elisabeth, so glad to hear about the goings-on and can't wait to read all the things!! I thank you much for your compliments and I am eager to finish and show you the fruit of all our work!!<br /><br />Blessings all!<br />MelanieMelanie J.

We mean "imp" as in a small faerie, possibly mischievous, but often loveable. :)Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15674350834544871474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-86615546202883174472014-07-21T22:02:26.703-04:002014-07-21T22:02:26.703-04:00Wow!

Sounds like you are having a busy yet great summer! <br /><br />I don't particularly have anything too big which I am going to do, but I do have some things. I haven't been very faithful with my book writings, but I still need to finish it, I'm taking violin lessons and I'm hoping I might be able to take voice lessons. It has been kinda a cool and mild summer here in Missouri, but I'm thankful for that because the last three years have been drought years.<br /><br />Hope you have a good rest of the summer!<br /><br />Gracie <br />"P.S" I'm new-ish to this blog and I have been wondering what Imp means in the context of your blog.Graciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06628006998481701362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-79155979981677028812014-07-21T20:47:39.407-04:002014-07-21T20:47:39.407-04:00Love all the news.

That's the hardest part of writing for me, because its the stage I am constantly second-guessing myself. Since my writing process has undergone lots of changes this year, the revision and proofing stages are more challenging and fun now. So excited about that story and Draven's Light. Am still waiting with eagerness to receive Until that Distant Day and Five Glass Slippers. The suspense is frustrating, but, eventually, I know the waiting will be worth it. It's been such a hectic and strange summer, too, so I've been out of touch with lots of things.<br /><br />Am working on a Beauty and the Beast retelling called Blind Beauty. The concept started when I wondered how it would be if the Beauty and Beast characters met briefly as children. What if they shared similar predicaments in their lives that drew them to each other, but what if circumstances kept them apart? What if the Beauty character didn't know what the mysterious boy she met briefly really was? These characters are ones I'm really attached to, and its the most character-driven story I've done. I love them all and am really working on this story to ensure its the best it can be before submitting it.<br /><br />Looking forward to the animation and the Fan Fiction Contest. Please give your cats pats from me.<br /><br />God bless you.Meredithnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-48483642646951367972014-07-21T10:46:06.777-04:002014-07-21T10:46:06.777-04:00I am thinking through an idea for Five Enchanted R...I am thinking through an idea for Five Enchanted Roses, but I am not certain that I will finish it.
