Hello everybody! My name is Elias and I like to write. I mostly write stories, in the genres of science fiction and fantasy. I would also love to write a historical fiction but I need to find a good storyline. (I am also… not super good at finishing my projects… *cough cough cough*
I have more recently also gotten into essay writing. I used to find it boring but now I am intrigued by it.
I would also love to write a screenplay for a movie but I’m very confused about it… like how to do it… lol. If anyone has tips it would be greatly appreciated!
Some of my favorite books are the Lord of the Rings, The Count of Monte Cristo, Dracula (by Bram Stoker), and Frankenstein (by Mary Shelley). (Neither of those are references to the garbage movie adaptations. None of which I have watched lol.)
Despite that, I am a cinephile, and enjoy movies such as pretty much anything by Christopher Nolan (The Dark Knight, Inception, Interstellar, The Odyssey), Gladiator (NOT THE SEQUEL) Dune, Project Hail Mary, and The Martian.
Anyway. I’m looking forward to learning and making new friends on Kingdom Pen!
Welcome to Kingdom Pen! I’m a writer of middle-grade fiction and poetry, a full-time university student, a historical clothing/culture/language nerd, and a hand-crafting enthusiast.
Finishing stuff is hard. I think that’s easy to forget sometimes, but it’s no less true.
As far as screenplays go, closest I’ve gotten was a stage play, so probably not much help there. Sounds interesting though.
And of course, I have to ask some traditional Ask-The-Newbie questions:
- If you could own a horse for a lifetime, or ride a dragon for a day, which would it be?
- Do Jellybeans qualify as a food?
A cup of tea is cheaper than therapy.
Welcome Elias! So cool you write Fantasy and Sci-fi! I like to write those too.
Also intrigued that you like essay writing. What topics do you like to write about?
How did you hear about Kingdom Pen?

Hi, Elias! I’m new here too! My name is QuicksilverWyvern (though you can just call me Quicksilver or Wyvern, I don’t mind) and I like to write mostly epic fantasy with hints of other genres. I also have a ridiculous amount of other hobbies, though I’m definitely not equally great at all of them, lol! My dream job is to be an author and eventually a business-owner.
That’s so cool that you enjoy some classics! I haven’t read any of the ones you mentioned (besides Fellowship of the Ring, if that counts as a classic), but there are some others I’ve read that I can assuredly say were some of the best books that have graced by mind and eyes. Classical literature is truly a great genre to grow oneself and one’s vocabulary. Keep with it!
Now, here are some questions:
1. What is your dream fantasy-style home? Not necessarily from a specific book or movie, but just in general, like a palace, cave, secret bunker, or something like that. Feel free to go into detail!
2. What is your favorite vibe for a book to be? Like, the general feeling the environment and story gives you. Whimsical, epic, dystopian, regal, etc.
3. What (in your opinion) is the best line you have ever written?
There once was a snail who was depressed and would do anything for his girlfriend. Didn't end well.
