April is already here, and it's time for a new theme of the month!
This April, we will be covering....
Writing Meaningful Character Relationships
Character relationships are one of the most important things in any story. They are what intrigue, hook, and move the audience. They also serve to motivate, flesh out, strengthen, and sometimes even break the main characters.
Well-written character relationships can add just that more emotional impact, conflict, and heart into your story that turns it from just “okay” to “memorable”.
However, writing meaningful, believable, and dynamic character relationships can be difficult. So this month, Kingdom Pen hopes to help you pull off writing relationships with excellence, and make your stories that much more impactful.
Some articles you can look forward to are:
Also, we have lots of short stories, poems, and guest articles coming up this month as well, so look forward to those!

What are your favorite types of relationships in fiction? What are some of the most memorable relationships you've read about in books or movies? And... are you excited about this month's theme?
Ooh! Sounds cool! I have a lot of character relationships in my stories. Sibling, apprentice and mentor, and romantic are the ones I’d like to learn the most about, because I use all three a lot.
I love the theme this month! Super awesome, especially the upcoming articles on sibling/family relationships–I struggle with making them seem uncontrived, even though I have five other family members, lol! Super stoked! 😜
Love this website! But it doesn’t seem to be working quite right–whenever I click on one of the links from the menu bar it says “no results found”. I tried on two different browsers, but it hasn’t worked. Any ideas?
Oh no! So sorry about that! Is it working now? If not, send us an email at kingdompenmag@gmail.com and I’ll try figure something out. 🙂
Ooh, awesome theme this month! I love well-done character relationships. Really excited for this!
