Hello @unsung welcome to the Kingdom!!!! *waves* We’re SO thrilled to have you here!!! I’m Issabelle, but feel free to call me Is or Issa or any other nickname you come up with – it’s much quicker to spell, lol. And fantasy is one of the best genres ever!! *high fives*

@unsung Hello! I like the meaning behind your username. And your profile picture too–isn’t God’s creation amazing? I’ve always wanted to see that in real life.

Thank you! 🙂 It is indeed, and I absolutely love it so very much! I am an out-of-doors kind of gal!

Goodness, the forum has been blowing up lately!! Just now getting around to replying to you XD
Ooh, I love Honey Vanilla Chamomile!! Such a soothing flavor.
Hm, never hear of Matthew West before!! But I know Peter Hollens, I listened to a few of his songs. He’s got some serious talent; it’s hard to believe that his songs are ALL voice and no instruments!
Oooooh, awesomeee!!!!! Great job, @elfwing with your book!!!
Amen to that, the Bible is truly the only book we ever need!! Like 2 Peter 1:3 says, he has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness!! Hallelujah!! Are you reading/studying any particular book of the Bible right now?
Sameee, it would be SO convenient to always have clean clothes. And more cost-effective!! Dishes I can live with #YayForDishwashers
Nice!! To be honest, I had to look up West Edmonton Mall because I’d never heard of it, but wow! It’s almost as big as The Mall of America!
Ohhh, a cathedral would be AMAZING to visit. All the history!!!
Hey, *fist bump*, I’m learning Latin too! To be fair, I’ve only just finished my first year, so I’ve got a long way to go before becoming a scholar XD But I’m planning on continuing as long as I can!!
(I was gonna try to say something in Latin to you, but my Latin is still so minimal that I had nothing I could say XD)
YESS, another Tolkien fan! Of course, the ultimate question is, have you read the Silmarillion? 🙂 Ooh, I would love to visit NZ too someday! I gotta see Hobbiton XD
‘Course I don’t mind; I love long-winded!!! 😀 ;P
~In Christ Alone My Hope Is Found~
Oh hey! I’m always happy to hear of another person learning Latin, @madelyn! Nice to know of people outside my class who are learning it.
I have…. *crawls into hole for shame* not read any of the LOTR/Tolkien books at all. Mom has read the Hobbit to us, and I’ve listened to the Theatrical Drama production of the Hobbit, but I… haven’t read any of it. I actually… don’t like reading much. (eeeee, yes, I know it’s crazy; my friends remind me of that enough XD) So I’m not like a crazy Tolkien fan (probably couldn’t be considered a real one, either)

@issawriter7, sorry for the super random comment, but I love how your name is spelled! Very unique.

*sidles into chat, grinning sheepishly* Well, I’m a bit late to the party… But welcome to the KP forum, Unsung! So good to have you here. 🙂 I’m Lydia.
Another Tolkien fan, woohoo!!! Tolkien is probably the author I admire the most; I’m a big fan! (To be perfectly honest, tho, you’re not the only one who’s never read LOTR.😉My mom read it to my siblings and me several years ago, and I’ve read The Hobbit. However, I have yet to make it through LOTR on my own, let alone The Silmarillion.)
Following are the (not-so) customary induction questions. Only answer if you’d like to.😉
(Since no one else has asked this, I suppose I get to) Pineapple pizza; yea or nay?
What is one pet-peeve you have when it comes to books?
Who is your favorite book character ever?
Welcome, again, Unsung! Can’t wait to get to know you. 🙂 <3333
Hi! I don’t believe I’ve met you yet. So nice to see you! I’m Lydia. 🙂 Welcome to the KP forum!
Thank you!
Okay good! I’m glad I’m not the only one out there who hasn’t read them!
HAHAHA! Elfwing had mentioned something about a pineapple question… I wondered when it would come.
As far as the actual question: I don’t mind it. It’s not my favorite, but I do enjoy it. I have nothing against those who say yea or nay XD
When it comes to books… hmm… that is a very good question. I can’t land on too many, since I haven’t read very many of them, but I do detest when the entire book is predictable. My mom and I read a book not too long ago and I called every single plot point. I don’t like when it’s predictable, or when everything turns out ‘alright in the end’, I suppose. Like, when nothing really had great consequence.
Oh! Another thing I cannot stand is adult portrayed as idiots (especially parents) or growing-up teens being just ridiculous silly brats! Yes, sometimes teens are ridiculous and silly, but, unless you want your character to be like that, at the very least give them substance! Teens are not forever giggling and poking fun at everyone or teasing people. (oops, you said one lol)
Favorite book character ever… hmmm. well, my work aside (since it’s not necessarily that they’re good characters, but rather that they’re more of real people in my head) I’d have to go with either a character named Sathor in Elfwing’s books, or a character named Danielle in a different friend’s work (who is not on KP. She’s not really I writer, I suppose, just does it once in awhile)
Thank you! I’m glad I’m here!

I cannot agree with you more about parent characters! And “happily-ever-after” stories sometimes frustrate me, too… They don’t reflect reality, and I’m a BIG supporter of fiction reflecting reality. 🙂
That’s so cool! Hopefully, I get to meet those characters someday. 😉
@unsung Hi!! It’s nice to meet you!! Welcome to the Kingdom!!! I’m glad @elfwing and @elanor got you to join!!! 😉
*high-fives for being a fellow Jesus-follower* I love Jesus and fantasy as well!!! I read your inspiration behind your username and may I just say that I love that reasoning!! 😀 It’s awesome!!!
What’s your favorite song? Favorite book? Favorite animal (real or mythical)?
"It looks like a fairy world"~Meg from Little Women by Louisa May Alcott
Fall in love with JesusHello, @mkfairygirl!
I think we may have met very briefly and indirectly already! (but that may have been another Katherine!) I was editing Elfwing’s book! Are you an editor for her work?
Yay! I will always take high-fives! Also I’m glad you like the meaning behind my name! 🙂
Favorite song… wow! I love music so much that I cannot say a favorite song. However, I so love “The God Who Stays” by Matthew West. I like most his songs. I actually also like a lot of music without words (right now I’m listening to “Toward the Sun” by Green Lads (if you like Irish kind of sounding-ish music without words, this song is for you!) and there’s just…. AAAAAAAAA no, sorry, I’m going to stop before I explode and rant too much!
Favorite book… I actually DO NOT like reading (I believe I’m very slightly dyslexic, and it makes my head ache so much.) But, there are a few things I did love, and do love reading! First of all is my Bible! (It’s really cool because that’s the only thing I can read without getting a headache!) but I also love Elfwing’s work, which is why I’m editing! And another friend’s work as well, though she doesn’t write much. I’ll also stop there before I rant terribly there as well too.
Favorite animal… hmmm…. well, my favorite real animal is either butterfly or horse (they’re almost right at the same level, but just recently butterfly got the mention-before-the-other-in-a-two-way-tie lol. Mythical would probably be either a dragon or griffin. But I’m planning to make up some crazy mythical creatures in my fantasy!
Anyway! Sorry for the tardiness! It’s been so busy!
