I use Pages on my Mac. It has a cool 'Comment' function that allows me to make a comment on a word or paragraph, etc. The comments are displayed on the left side of the window. This is handy in case I need to come back to a certain section later.

I use Microsoft Word too... the only thing I don't like is how when I want to spell something diffrently to make it sound a certain way, for instance "Kinda" or "ya'll", it says it is spelled wrong and puts up the red line and yada yada... It woul...

I use Microsoft Works Word Processor. There are some decent programs other than that, some specifically designed for smoothing out the writing process. YWriter is a good example. I used it for a while, but it turns out, I prefer writing freely, wi...

I tend to use Microsoft Works, but this is only cause Word doesn't work for me. I am not sure if there's any better word processors out there.

GodsPeace replied to GodsPeace's discussion 'Characters and coming up with them...'

Much appreciated KC. I will certainly check into that. I don't really struggle to creat characters, and I expect my greatest responses on this will be from those that already trust me quite well. I just thought this would be an interesting exerci...

KC replied to GodsPeace's discussion 'Characters and coming up with them...'

There are multiple ways to interview your characters to get to know them. Lots of authors have such questionnaires on their sites. One is Randy Ingermanson. I also recommend the book called "Getting Into Character" by Brandilyn Collins. Sorry, I ...

King's Ransom by Jan Beazely I actually loved this story. It is a perspective on WWII I would recommend. Very good stuff.

GodsPeace replied to GodsPeace's discussion 'I am broken inside, but do I like it too much?'

Ironic(hardly) isn't it, that I come here thinking intellectually about something that has bothered me over the years, only to come away somewhat naked in my present spiritual situation. I am growing weary of the ordinary that I have settled for. ...

I have found in my own life TC that they went hand in hand - little reading of the word - little prayer and continued repentance.

Broken inside, but do I like it too much?

You know, we are all broken beyond repair for all except our blessed Savior. Seriously, we are all just broken little peices of molded clay. The worst part of the brokenness is that it is self inflicted. We are created perfect in the image of our Lord God, yet we seem to spend every waking moment of our lives contrivin of ways to rebel against our Lord.

Here's what I know...

I know I am broken deep within, and within me there is potential for great evil. I have built up great walls to protect… Continue

About Church...

So my wife and I are struggling with going to church. We found our church 2 years ago, and initially we were very encouraded to have found it. Now, though, we find ourselves disconnected from it, and neither of us is real excited to go. So we don't go very often at all.

My wife and I both want to be part of a strong Christian family, and we just don't feel that way about the church we currently belong to. Don't get me wrong, they are great people. The Pastor is a young, energetic, passionate ma… Continue

My Testimony

My testimony

I am writing this in the hopes that someone is touched by it, and to offer a glimpse into my life that others may want. Much of this is difficult to recall in general, and I try and be as open as possible considering that much of this hardly impacts just myself.

I was born December 13, 1978 in Stillwater, Oklahoma. At a year old my parents divorced. My dad and my mom remarried, and my mom and my sisters went with my stepfather to California. He was incredibly abusive. In fact, my… Continue

Just Me...

I am just me. If you don't know me you probably haven't missed anything monumental. Here are some general facts about me.

I am 30, as of now. I am happily married to my best friend and we have three amazing daughters. Two of our daughters are adopted through foster care, and they are biological sisters. Our youngest is Autistic, has SID, and has Fetal Alcohol Effect.

I am a Social Studies Teacher in Oklahoma, and I am a bigtime fan of Oklahoma State University.

I am really struggling to write… Continue
