    Thank you, that sentiment means so much! And you don’t know how much the comment “hope is one of the strongest things we have” means to me, for many reasons! 😊

    Impressive you swapped and still pulled it off so horribly well! 😂

    Don’t make it too much more than that I don’t know that I could bear the strain! 😂😉

    Oh awesome! So I’d just make a google account with like a pen name and let you know? I’d be down for that! Personally I really think I could learn a lot from having someone experienced help me through the writing process and observe how she does it! I really appreciate this offer and am excited to try it out! 😊

    Ah, see I never realized it but Darth Vader is like the one, or at least first, evil dude I really liked… cause he’s a tragic character and he didn’t start out evil it was too much of a good thing that led him to the Dark Side. I was such a Star Wars fan when I was a kid! And still am! 😊 and yes, my sister wrote some awesome Harry Potter stories especially being her first time really writing and being so young too!
    I know my sister has read hunger games, I have not but have watched a couple of the movies. Fun fact, I was a huge fan of Suzanne Collins long before she ever wrote the hunger games… she wrote a series of books called The Underland Chronicles I was obsessed with when I was in 5th-7th grades! They’re awesome, if you haven’t read them highly recommend, starts with a book called Gregor The Overlander. Kids made so much of me for liking those books so much, I couldn’t get anyone to jump on that fandom train with me! When she came out with a new series I was so excited, then I read the blurb and it was about kids killing each other on TV and I said I can’t read that. So overtly bad for a concept… and then all of a sudden the Hunger Games was the bomb and I was like, I liked Suzanne Collins before it was cool! So frustrating for me. To this day I’ve only ran into one or two other people who read and enjoyed the Underland Chronicles. So if you read it and liked it, I’d love to fangirl about that with you too! 😊

    Thanks so much for your kindness! I really appreciate it! Let me know about the google thing, and hope you have a great day!

      Well, then, I'm very glad I said it!

      Yep! I created a doc, and I'll link it in another comment. You can click on it and pick or create a new pseudonym account to join it. I'll delete the comment itself right away for safety, so you'll have to just click the link in your inbox. But let me know if it doesn't work!
      I'm excited too :) XD

      My brother was a HARDCORE Star Wars fan until Disney took it over lol, so I've seen and know a lot. I enjoy it for sure, but it doesn't usually give me the 'feels' that other fandoms do.
      My first attempts at fic were also Harry Potter lol, and some Percy Jackson stuff.
      Ohhhh goodness that's rough. I have not read Underland Chronicles, but I'll have to check it out. It's very hard being the only person you know in a fandom, lol.

      Have a great day as well!

        Ah, awesome! I’ll be on the lookout for the link! Haven’t seen it yet, that’s awesome you know how to do that, so smart! :-)

        Yeah my interest in new Star Wars stuff is just kinda meh for the most part but the original movies and the prequels are awesome! I also liked the Rogue One movie that’s the best one that has come out since the Disney takeover in my opinion.

        I think you’d really like the Underland Chronicles! Let me know if you do read them! :-)

          One thing I just thought of, and it’s silly, but when I first started leaving comments I was accidentally using the wrong e-mail address (mix up between 2 account names cause I’m a confused idiot sometimes) but if you reply to one of my comments in the last 9 months to a year it should work I think I got everything straightened out by then! :-)

          I know you've got it now lol

          YES! i was just reading something yesterday on pinterest about how rogue 1 managed to capture the western and ww1 genres of movie that a new hope (back when it was the only Star Wars) had inside of it, and that's what made it feel so star warsy

          I will!

            Oh that’s awesome! I never really thought about WHY Rogue One was so good, it makes sense though that they made it as close to the Original Star Wars movie as they could and were successful in implementing those themes! I remember seeing the commercials for that movie and thinking, why go to see it, you know it’s going to end with everyone dying, but I did go and enjoyed it! they did do such a great job of making a good movie and still everyone dies! 😂😂 in fact, kinda going off what we said in this story about justified/earned deaths, I might’ve been upset if someone survived at the end of Rogue One, even though I hated that they died. What a paradox! 😂😂

              Quite honestly, yeah. As much as it hurts, sometimes having a character (even or especially beloved ones) die is Right for a story
