Hello, all! :D You may call me Milly Manderly. (I prefer not to use my real name as of yet.) I am most delighted to find a Christian forum devoted to fantasy writing! I am a writer, but have not published anything yet. Any questions?

Welcome welcome, friend! I hope you feel very welcomed, because we are so happy to have you!

What type of fantasy do you like to write?

Be careful of your thoughts; guard your mind, for your thoughts become words. Be guarded when you speak, for your words turn into action. Watch what you do, for your actions will become habits. Be wary of your habits, for they become your character. Pray over your character; strive to mold it to the image of Christ, because your character will shape your destiny.

Ideas can germinate from the smallest seeds. Collect those seeds, and let them grow in the back of your mind. You may be surprised by what finally blooms.

When God takes something from your grasp, he's not punishing you. Instead, He’s opening your hands to receive something better. The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.

Works in progress:

Hello and welcome!

_________________
You have blue skin with orange polka dots. Four eyes, one red, one yellow, one green, and one blue. You have four arms, two are furry and two are scaly. One ear is a floppy dog's ear and the other is a pointy dog's ear. Your hair is a mess of tentacles. You have the body of a centaur, with four wings and two tails (both with feathers on the end). Two wings are pink. The other two are green and black, respectively. You have a row of sharp spines going down your back (very sharp). You also hiccup rainbow bubbles... ~Vili
So, now you all know what I look like.

We're creating a HW RPG! Come check it out!

Hello!

Of course, having joined just yesterday, it seems odd to be welcoming a new person, but whatever. :)

Welcome to Holy Worlds. I just wanted to be the first to start the craziness in your welcome thread.

What sort of fantasy books or authors have you read?


Last edited by Reiyen on February 10th, 2011, 10:42 pm, edited 2 times in total.
Because I pulled a silly trick in which I posted part of my post first so as to make sure no one with glitter snuck in before me. After that, I added the serious part. That's why it was edited.

Welcome to Holy Worlds, Milly! I hope you're finding your way around easily. ;) Don't worry about sharing your real name. Many of us have kept that to ourselves, though some of us are more open about it than others. ^^

@Arien: Hey, you're catching on quite easily! :D

Welcome to HW Mandy!! :) Lovely to meet you.

Spreads glitter and confetti because we just can't have an introductions thread without them!

Welcome to Holy Worlds! I really like your username. :) As someone mentioned, lots of people aren't using their real names either, myself included. ;)

I brought cookies. :D

Agreed on all points. Welcome to HW!!! But, what kind of glitter is that? *Throws glitter grenade at Reiyen. Upon impact blue glitter fills the room. Proceeds to pull a knife out and watch warily for Aussie.*

*glances warily at the knife* We don't usually end up with weapons in our introduction threads. :P Don't worry, Milly. The introduction threads are what we use as a gauntlet to make sure you're crazy enough to fit in. :roll: The other gauntlet is your first time in the chat room, so be sure to drop by. :)

<Ahem> Welcome to HW!

Hilly, I think you're taking this all just a wee bit seriously...

Welcome, welcome, and lots of greetings, Miss Milly! As long as you have a real name, that's all that's important - nobody around here will use it anyway. :D

Thank you, thank you!

I've been writing since I was very little - probably six or seven - but I have had lots of practice! ;)

Um, I write about creatures and different countries, and I suppose some of them might seem a little bizarre. :D

I like J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, etc. I have never read Harry Potter, thank goodness!

I believe I am going to really enjoy Holy Worlds! :D :D :D

Welcome to the dark side of Holy Worlds, or noir side if someone feels that being in the dark side isn't nice.

I thought for sure I'd welcomed you already but I looked through the posts and it doesn't seem I have. *mutters to self*

Well, welcome anyways! Ignore all of...."this." ("You just gestured to all of us") They generally settle down outside of introductions. :D

And promotion threads and the chat. Don't give Milly false hope, Eru.

Welcome Milly! Hope you have a ball here in Holy Worlds! I've gotta say, I love your name! Random question #1 from very random person: Is it at all related to the "Milly Molly Mandy" book/s?

*unsheathes sword and admires it's sheen* You may keep your knife, Sir Elanhil. Not that I know why I deserve such deference in a welcome thread... ;) but thank ye kindly, anyway! :D

Welcome Milly. :rofl: As you've probably already found out, you don't stay new for long here. And no, I'm not one of those chronic glitter bombers. So welcome, and enjoy the temporarily clean air of my non-glittery welcome.
