Post subject:  Salutations!

Hello everyone!

I'm Knight of Elyon, aka Daniel.
I live in the US of A, and am a pastor's son. On April 2, 2008 I became a Christian, and that was the greatest day of my life!
I've always been interested in writing, but before last year, I didn't have a focus on God (for obvious reasons).
Now I try to bring Christ into all my stories, and I hope I'm doing well at it.
I'm looking forward to being on this forum, and getting to know other writers!

Coinnigh beo an solas a bhíonn i do chroí

God Bless!
~Daniel

There are a lot of 'welcomes' going around... :D

Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

Yes, there are! Do you know how long this forum has been up and running for?

Author:  Knight of Elyon [ September 24th, 2009, 7:39 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

Umm.. two, three days officially, I think.

Oh wow! It's brand new then!

Author:  Knight of Elyon [ September 24th, 2009, 7:49 pm ]

Yes.. :)

So let's see... this is your introduction thread and here I am talking about randomness. How inconsiderate of me! :roll:

*Clears throat and gets back on topic*

What king of things does Sir Elyon like to do?

Author:  Knight of Elyon [ September 24th, 2009, 7:58 pm ]
Post subject: 

Sir Elyon likes to do many things. :)

Foremost is Christ. After, and always after, is writing and reading, the two of which swap places from time to time.
I like to play games (both electronic and non), and I also am into web design.

*Falls into British accent*

Oh joy! I am excited to hear of them all! Especially that of Christ being foremost. It is always such a pleasure to hear of other youth who have the same goal. May I ask, how old you are?

Author:  Knight of Elyon [ September 24th, 2009, 8:19 pm ]
Post subject: 

BRITISH ACCENT!!! :D

I am 16, turning 17 later this fall.. :)

Author:  Lady Bethilaurea [ September 24th, 2009, 8:22 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

*Drawls on in accent some more*

Oh I just love British accents! Thankfully my best friend's nana is from England so I learned quite a bit from her. The rest was from films. I say! It is easy to fall into a sort of old-fashioned air on here, is it not? :D

Okay, so I'm a wee bit older... though not by much!

Author:  Knight of Elyon [ September 24th, 2009, 8:53 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

They are fun! I'm fairly good at Jack Sparrow...... and a few regular accents.
That's cool!

Just a wee bit, eh? How much older is a wee bit?

Author:  Lady Bethilaurea [ September 25th, 2009, 7:03 am ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

Oh Jack Sparrow is hilarious! Voices are so much fun to imitate... I'm not very good at it, but I try :) Speaking in a British accent is entertaining though, especially considering because I'm from New England (Maine) and the accents here sound nothing like those from across the pond!

Mmm... I just turned 17 this month. So, I'm probably a couple months older than you. My birthday was the ninth.

Do you have a big family, Sir Elyon?

Author:  Knight of Elyon [ September 25th, 2009, 5:43 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

Yes, they are extremely fun to do! :)

I turn 17 on Nov. 30...

Not compared to a lot of families I know (like my best friends)!
I'm the youngest of four. :)

Author:  Lady Bethilaurea [ September 25th, 2009, 5:55 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

Okay. How old are your other siblings? Are they all brothers/sisters or a mix?

Author:  Knight of Elyon [ September 25th, 2009, 6:12 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

One sister and two brothers.
My oldest brother is 26, my sister is 22, and my other brother is 19.

Author:  Lady Bethilaurea [ September 25th, 2009, 6:14 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

Cool!

Do you like being the youngest?

Author:  Knight of Elyon [ September 25th, 2009, 6:25 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

It has both advantages and disadvantages.. But, since that's all I've ever been or will be: yes. :)

Author:  Lady Bethilaurea [ September 25th, 2009, 6:26 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

Haha... good answer. Did they used to pick on you a lot when you were a kid?

Author:  Knight of Elyon [ September 25th, 2009, 6:31 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

hehe.. NO!!! I would have shredded them! :evil: LOL
No.. I've had good sibs.. :) I was teased, but I tease them, too.. :D

Author:  Lady Bethilaurea [ September 25th, 2009, 6:33 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

:shock: I'm sure after awhile both sides had to get creative in the teasing, huh?

Author:  Knight of Elyon [ September 25th, 2009, 6:48 pm ]
Post subject: 

Ehh.. not really.. :)

Author:  Lady Bethilaurea [ September 25th, 2009, 6:48 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

Okay :)

Author:  Knight of Elyon [ September 25th, 2009, 7:14 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

Yeah.. MOST of the time they are great. :)

Of course.. sometimes.. (Like right now) my sister will bug me to go write on the story on my blog... :)

Author:  Lady Bethilaurea [ September 25th, 2009, 7:15 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

Wait... is your sister on this forum?

Author:  Knight of Elyon [ September 25th, 2009, 7:21 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

No, she's not. :)

Author:  Lady Bethilaurea [ September 25th, 2009, 7:23 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

For some reason I thought that maybe the other Laura was your sister...

Author:  Knight of Elyon [ September 25th, 2009, 7:24 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

LOL... in Christ.. :D

Author:  Lady Bethilaurea [ September 25th, 2009, 7:32 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

Oh, yes... I knew that :roll: Can you tell it's getting late?

Author:  Knight of Elyon [ September 25th, 2009, 7:36 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

Umm.. only 7:36 here.. :) lol

I'm an hour ahead of you.

Yeah.. :)

To get back to the focus of this post....nice to meet you, Daniel! God's going to use you for His Glory!

Author:  Knight of Elyon [ October 8th, 2009, 5:34 pm ]
Post subject: 

Nice to meet you too! (well, meeting sort of... :) )
I feel that God is going to use this new generation of christian writers to impact the reading world in a very major way!

Author:  Liagiba [ October 8th, 2009, 5:48 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

I agree. It will be awesome to see how God can use a group of young, amateur fantasy writers to impact a whole generation.

Author:  Knight of Elyon [ October 8th, 2009, 5:57 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

Yes. Fantasy and SF are the most read genres, and personally I would like to see a flood of christian books in those classes. :)

Author:  Liagiba [ October 8th, 2009, 6:02 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

Absolutely! God can use any genre, but fantasy & sci-fi open up a whole new audience that we can reach for Christ.

Author:  Knight of Elyon [ October 8th, 2009, 6:11 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

Yes, I agree!
And Christian fantasy is much better, in my opinion. Even many secular writers that I have read incorporate Christian ideals and views into their stories.

Author:  Liagiba [ October 8th, 2009, 6:17 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

I think some secular writers incoporate Christian ideals because they're the only TRUE ideals, if that makes sense. In some ways, they add them unintentionally! I agree, I can't think of a better combination than Chrsitan fantasy.

Author:  Knight of Elyon [ October 8th, 2009, 6:21 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

True, but many do it on purpose, I think. :)
I haven't found a better one yet. :D

Author:  Liagiba [ October 8th, 2009, 6:26 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

I'd have to agree with both of your statements. I love Christian fantasy with a passion and I'm praying God will use me there in ways far beyond what I can imagine!

Author:  Knight of Elyon [ October 8th, 2009, 8:30 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

Christian fantasy is both my favorite thing to read, and write!
I, too, also hoped that He will use me far beyond what my own imagination can fathom!

Author:  Liagiba [ October 8th, 2009, 8:40 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

I don't know about you, but because I'm a fantasy writer, my imagination is, well, limitless. Which means that whatever God does with me is going to have to be even bigger than that! Wow. That's hard to comprehend.

Author:  Knight of Elyon [ October 8th, 2009, 8:42 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Salutations!

Yes, I know what you mean!
And just think, that in the Bible it says that the heavens are beyond even our slightest inkling! For a fantasy writer that says a lot! :)
