      Alas, all my get-rich-quick schemes have failed, and once more, I have fallen onto my, er, glutes.

      I apologize if this is a little late or excessive, but I’ve been gone for a few months short of a year.  And I decided that everyone would (obviously) be super dooper excited to see me back haha.

      Well maybe not quite that, but it’s good to be back anyways.  I’m happy to say that I feel like I’ve matured as a writer (I can’t say. . as a person ha), and I’m ready to tackle writing here once more.  Despite the changes, many things are the same!!  Including, but not limited to- still not being able to figure out how ot post pictures or gifs, still addicted to corn dogs, and my impossible fascination with all things on the creepy side.

      Anyways, if you haven’t met be before, that’s probably for the better haha.  Name’s Xonos, and you might recognize me as the person waving maniacally at the camera in news reports.

      Good to see everyone.

      p.s. Sad to hear that Kingdom Pen itself is on hiatus.  Hopefully it can get back up and running eventually, until then, I may have to check out this . . . “Story Embers”.

      Life's a cruel joke, so you have to laugh at it sometimes.

        @xonos-darkgrate Welcome back! It’s pretty quiet around here now, but we still hang out and answer questions anyone has.

          @xonos-darkgrate Hi!  I don’t remember seeing you before.  I joined the Kingdom earlier this year, so you probably weren’t around.  Glad you are back just the same!

          You aren’t alone because I still don’t know how to post a GIF either. 😉

          What do you like to write?

            Hey, @ariel-ashira!!

            Yeah, I’m not sure I remember you either haha.  So it’s good to meet you.  But thanks hha.

            Well, I write whatever pops into my brain.  So I guess anything except romance haha.  Though I have been writing more thriller-themed things as of late?  Or I guess poetry, if that counts haha.  How about you?

              @xonos-darkgrate I write mostly historical fiction, but have some ideas for a dystopian.  Since I have so many I want to write, I try to just focus on a couple at once.

              Do you write book length poems?  I write poems, but not book length.

                Nice haha.  I could never put as much time or effort into research as is needed for accurately portrayed historical fiction, though I wish I could haha.  Oooh, I like dystopian.  One or two of my WIPs are dystopian, though I haven’t worked on them in a while.

                I’m not so disciplined as you, heh. 😛  I just write whatever pops into my head; so I have about a thousand unfinished works.  Some never going beyond the title page and prologue haha.

                Nah, I don’t usually have enough patience for longer things like that.  So mine are usually much shorter.

                  @xonos-darkgrate Well, I love history, so research isn’t a chore to me. 🙂

                  Have you ever finished or published a book?

                    @ariel-ashira, that’s awesome haha.  The extent of my research tends to be around things like whether or not you can boil emu eggs or not.

                    Unfortunately, I have not.  I really do plan to, eventually, but yeah- that mainly means I have to actually finish one first haha.  Which I haven’t, so. . I haven’t.  My problem seems to be that I can’t work on one single project in a successive manner, without being carried away by some other interest haha.  So my writing’s very sporadic; I assume, the publishing will be too as well one day.

                    Have you?

                          @xonos-darkgrate Hi!  I remember seeing you around here, though I don’t believe we’ve ever directly spoken – er – posted to each other before. 😉 You know @dekreel don’t you?

                          (I have successfully posted a GIF…once…)

                          Anyway, welcome back to KP. 🙂

                              Err, yeah, I don’t think I was very intent on getting to know every single person on Kingdom Pen at that point haha.

                              Thanks though!! @seekjustice

                                  Haha, yeah, it was most definitely delayed.

                                  What if this isn’t my face haha . . . perhaps it is the face of some poor Asian boy I captured and now my servant forever?
