Hello.

@otherworldlyhistorian.

I am also a history buff. My current WIP series is definitely inspired a lot by the first world war but it is definitely also a mash up of a bunch of other history stuff I like. I really want to capture the multi-faceted conflict and how there are villains and heroes on both sides. I think the war will definitely end differently as I am kind of thinking that it will wrap itself up more.

Ooh, inspired by WW1!? That’s really cool! 😀

I am SO glad you show both sides of the conflict! I feel like in history books/historical fiction/fantasy/etc. people only focus on one side of a conflict, and it’s probably one of my pet peeves, lol. xD And yes, there are good and bad people on both sides, and I think we need to realize that more often!

That’s why I love writing characters from the other, less discussed side of the conflict in my historical fiction novels. 😉

From what you’ve said, The Kharvian Anthology sounds really interesting!! Will you ever be sharing it on KP?

@a-lot-of-people

I am very excited that you guys are interested in my idea.

@esther-c

I will probably share/discuss some of my world building and story ideas and may share some of the story. I am currently still working on my plot outline but I have finished the ideas for a good number of the plot-lines (it is multi-narrative). I guess I should make a WIP forum.

Hi! Welcome to Kingdom Pen! I’m Theloonyone

Your story sounds really cool, and it has a really interesting setting! I read some of your longer explanation, and I’ll go back to read the whole thing soon. It’s really detailed, I can tell you have put a lot of work into it!

Anyway… newbie questions!

1. What kind of writing do you do? Do you have a favorite genre?

2. Stranded on an island. If you like music, what are five songs or five albums that you would want to have if you were stranded on an island? Basically top five, whether through quality or sentiment.

3. Stranded on an island but five books.

4. If you could make any activity an Olympic sport, what would you have a good chance of winning a medal for?

Welcome to Kingdom Pen, again! I hope to see you around!

Thanks.

1. Mostly fantasy/sci-fi writing but sometimes scripts.

2. Song of durin, When the wolves cry out, Timbers and wind, the rogue one theme, and a instrumental version of the rains of castemere

3. The bible, the silmarillian, and probably some fantasy trilogy.

4. Playing strategy games
