Hello! I would like to introduce myself. I am QuicksilverWyvern, a Christian fantasy author striving to someday become published and eventually a business-owner. My hobbies include a little bit of everything creative, but my true expertise is in writing–all my other hobbies seem to stem from my writing in fact. This last summer I finished my first full-length original novel and right now I am working on a new book until I have time during the winter holidays to start draft two of my completed novel. Besides my writing projects, I’m also working on a comic, a D&D campaign, and dabbling when I can with crafting a metroidvania style platformer (emphasis on the boss fights.) When I’m not being a workaholic or playing health issue roulette, I enjoy reading, spending time with friends and family, and playing video games. I typically write epic fantasy with elements of Sci-Fi, Steampunk, Wulxia, or Shenxia (the last two are forms of Chinese fantasy genres) aimed for YA to Adult readers.
To get to talk to Christian creatives in my walk of life seems like a dream come true. I can’t wait to get to know and talk to you guys about writing!
Hello hello! I’m so glad you’ve gotten on KP at last!
I’m Ellette! I’m an author if fantasy, dystopian, and Historical fiction for middle grade, YA, and adults. I am also the owner of a publishing company, a content editor, and an artist/graphic designer.
What are some of your top favorite fantasy books?
If you could pick to spend a week with one of your characters, who would it be, and why?
If you could be siblings with any book character (not your own books) who would it be and why?
So glad to have you!

Welcome to Kingdom Pen! I’m a writer of middle-grade and youth fiction, sometimes poet, full-time university student, history/culture nerd, and hand-crafting enthusiast.
Congratulations on finishing a draft! That’s a huge milestone. I declare you deserving of cheesecake (if you like cheesecake. Otherwise I’ll eat it myself, thank you).
I have two important Ask-The-Newbie questions:
- If you could own a horse for life, or ride a dragon for a day, which would you choose?
- Do Jellybeans qualify as food?
A cup of tea is cheaper than therapy.
1. I’d say my favorite top fantasy books would have to be the Mistborn trilogy, Harry Potter, and though I have yet to finish the whole series, Lord of the Rings.
2. I would love to spend a week a week with the protagonist of my finished novel, Qinien. He’s really talented in art and music, and I’d love some technique advice from him!
3. Ooo, this is a really hard question. I think it would have to be this guy named Peck from the Swipe series. He’s really competent and knows how to get things done–I think we’d get along well.
Ooo, yes, cheesecake. It’s one of my favorite desserts! And no, I’m not sharing (silly distrustful face.) Joking. Of course I’d share it.
1. Probably ride a dragon for a day. Never going to get that opportunity again, though, yes, I would be screaming through the entire ride.
2. According the first definition in the Merriam Webster dictionary, food is “material consisting essentially of protein, carbohydrate, and fat used in the body of an organism to sustain growth, repair, and vital processes and to furnish energy.” While too many jellybeans can send me on a sugar high, and subsequently crash, I don’t think I could sustain growth, or repair, or vital processes on them. Therefore I deem jellybeans not food. But you can still eat them. That’s a bit confusing.
Welcome QuicksilverWyvern!
So cool you write Fantasy and want to own your own business! I’m a huge fan of entrepreneurship!
Also so cool how many different creative pursuits you have!
I’m also curious about your “health issue roulette”. My wife had so many health issues for so long and almost died as well until she received healing from Jesus.
How did you hear about Kingdom Pen?
