Hey y’all!
I love incorporating crime, humor, and romance in my writing. I also love showing Christ in my writing in unique ways, but I need a lot of work in that area!
I have a ton of notebooks full of stories and a gaggle of quirky characters in my head. I’ve dabbled in sci-fi, historical romance, and fantasy before, though not much. I have a hard time writing romance, so I generally wing it on my own and stumble about trying to find ways to write it without sounding cheesy. I’m partially successful : )

Great username! Ooh! Another Sci-fi novelist!
I’m Sarafini, recent homeschool graduate, writer of Sci-fi, thriller, contemporary (and now) Fantasy, and some fanfiction (mainly Adventures in Odyssey [I’m trying other things though), and huge AIO (Adventures in Odyssey) fan! I’ve listened to all their albums up to 73.
Questions as you’re a newbie:
- Have you listened to AIO?
- What’s your WIP/WIPs about?
- Have you completed a full novel?
- If so, how long?
- Have you been published anywhere? Even if it’s just a poem, article, short story, or blog?
Hope you enjoy being here! Welcome! 😁

Now to tag some other keepers (that’s what the other writers on the forum are called): @esther-c @freedomwriter76 @godlyfantasy12 @devastate-lasting @lightoverdarkness6 @princesachronicle22 @joy-calle @orielle21
Nice to meet you! Romance is not a skill of mine, I’ve got to admit, but your genres sound amazing! (I am a fantasy/sci-fi person myself, so those sound interesting!)
Here’s my question: Who are your favorite characters that you’ve written?
Follow your heart, but take your brain with you.

I love incorporating crime, humor, and romance in my writing. I also love showing Christ in my writing in unique ways, but I need a lot of work in that area!
I would totally read your writing!! It sounds so awesome!! 😄
My writing is kind all over the place as well. XD My main focus right now is my YA dystopian trilogy, the Endoxos Trilogy. Though I have lots of ideas in all kinds of genres!
Now for some questions!!
1. What is your favorite animal and why?
2. What is your favorite part about writing sci-fi and fantasy?
3. Who is your favorite Bible character? (Besides Jesus, of course. He’s obviously the best. 😉)
Nice to meet you and see ya around!! 😀

@light-warrior-pen Nice to meet you! Not much to say about myself; I’m Lin, I’m a college kid, and my back hurts. Anyways.
I know others above me have already asked, but what are you currently working on? Do you prefer novels or short stories? Etc. Anyways. Welcome to the Kingdom!
Lately, it's been on my brain
Would you mind letting me know
If hours don't turn into daysHello! I’m Princesa! Pleasure to meet you!
Your writing style sounds fabulous, by the way 😉 Even the best writers get clumsy with it! As long as you like what you write
I like writing romance too and mostly fantasy/sci-fi, but I’ve had some contemporary romance ideas that I’ve wantet to try out, so we’ll see how that goes!
Look forward to seeing you around!

Welcome to the Kingdom, Light Warrior Pen!
I’m Lightoverdarkness6, (or just Light 🙂 a Christian, Homeschooled teen girl who loves drawing my characters, exploring the great outdoors, riding horses, playing piano, ranting about books and movies, writing, Middle Earth and anything from Tolkien, and our Savior, Jesus Christ.
Sci-fi is really cool! I’ve never trusted myself to try fantasy (or anything other than contemporary fiction), but I enjoy reading it! Romance is hard to write…like, really hard XD. I’ve got two characters who are interested in each other, but they’re young (14-16) so it’s nothing serious yet.
Here’s a few custom ask-the-newbie-questions for ya! 😀
1. Which of your characters would you choose to meet in real life?
2. How long have you been writing?
3. Are your characters based on real people?
4. Favorite T.V. show?
Anyway, it’s awesome to meet you, and I hope you have a great time here on KP!! ❤️❤️❤️

Hi @light-warrior-pen !
Nice to meet you! I’m theArcaneAxiom. I love math, and searching for divine fundamental truth. I like to explore these concepts in creating sci fi/fantasy stories and worlds.
Questions:
Do you enjoy worldbuilding? If so, hard or soft? (Hard meaning concrete rules to follow, and soft meaning more open possibility.)
What do you do to avoid cheesiness in your romances? Stray from troupes, complex dynamics, just writing normal healthy relationships?
And last but not least…
I have a heap of sand. I start removing one grain at a time. At what point will the heap be not a heap?

*waves* Hello and welcome to KP! I’m Joy, a somewhat (okay, more than somewhat) overwhelmed high school senior who loves Christian music and has a major sweet tooth. (It’s a bit of a problem.) I write historical and biblical fiction.
I can’t really think of any questions to ask since everybody else has stolen them, lol, but I’m looking forward to getting to know you better!
Hey, Welcome to Kingdom Pen!
I have a hard time writing romance, too. 😂 I hadn’t written any until I started writing the novel I’m working on and it somehow turned into a romance (I have no idea how, my characters just decided that was the way it was going to go).
I’m Theloonyone. Like most here, I am a Christian writer, but I also enjoy music, art, and reading. I play the piano (and the clarinet a little) and have been slowly growing my drawing skills over the past couple of years. Right now, I’m working on a couple of different short stories that I started years ago and never finished, and am editing my sci-fi/romance WIP.
Anyway, some newbie questions!
1. What is your favorite thing that you have written?
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. Favorite movies or tv shows?
5. 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!
Your genres sound fun! I’ve listened to a few AIO. My current WIP is about an author and private investigator in NYC.
I’ve completed a full novel, around 40,000 words. I have a blog, https://www.morgan-books.com/Thanks for the welcome! 🙂
