That sounds absolutely lovely. And I think youāre really cool too. <3
Do you think any of us KPers will ever actually meet in real life?

March 25, 2024 at 8:16 pm #178337I love your signature XD I read it randomly to my dad, and I think it restored some of his faith in online communities.
Thanks! š
The squirrels are collecting more nuts than usual this winter. I've already lost 3 relatives.
March 25, 2024 at 8:31 pm #178338Ok, I’m not sure if this is on topic but I skimmed the last couple threads, so here’s the potential ship names my characters could have:
Langus
Griscilla
That’s about it as far as people in my WIP that are interested in each other lol, very odd combos lol.
We crazy people are the normal ones.
March 27, 2024 at 3:01 pm #178377@whalekeeper heheheh yes. Sometimes I regret that, but it’s served me fine for now.
Where'd I get ya this time? The liver? The kidney? I'm runnin' outta places to put holes in ya.
April 7, 2024 at 9:26 pm #178727I would hope thatā¦
Maybe we can find some other Christian writing convention, like for YWW, and have our own little corner. Mention it on here and see what happens, if anyone lives nearby or travels at that time.
Also thereās potentially video calls – which isnāt preferable but might work if we asked moderators to send links through emails, and somehow keep personal information private. But thatās a lot of work for them just for a call.
Itās weird to think about though. Seeing peopleās real faces. I know my face doesnāt look at all like my tone on here š¤£
– Iām going to have to think about this

April 7, 2024 at 9:31 pm #178729But also also also –
What if weāve met each other but donāt know???
Iāve wondered that tons of times. Iām almost certain I donāt know you, because I have a feeling if I met someone with your personality I would jam with her right away and buy her aforementioned mochaā¦ but who knows? We could pass each other in the street. We may have seen the same landmarks from the exact same spot, in fact, we probably have. Itās weird to think about.

@everyone
Letās just saaaay Iām going to have a new, kinda-romantic dynamic between two characters.
One of these characters could very well fall into instant love. Itās a fantasy matter, normal for the species. How much of this insta-love should be exposed right off the bat? If I make it obvious right away, it might add a funny dynamic where the other character doesnāt take it seriously. But readers will immediately know what Iām doing. If I leave the insta-love subtle, it makes the pairing more respectful, less āfor laughs.ā I can also put it on a slow burner plot-wise, so the characters can focus on their quest. But that might feel passive and uninteresting.
Iām probably going to aim for an in-between, but if either side sounds better, do tell?

April 7, 2024 at 10:57 pm #178732@whalekeeper Ok yeah you are psychic. Iāve been wondering the exact same things for a really long time but I thought it might be too weird to mention. Ā Have you ever been to Called Conference in Moscow Idaho? Is that something I can ask?

April 7, 2024 at 11:04 pm #178734@whalekeeper Thatās probably a weird question sorry. I just think it would be awesome if we met. Iāve gone through all the Hannahs I know in my head and Iām like 99% sure you arenāt one of them. My name is Lindy, btw :]
āNothing says autumn like slurpinā apples.ā -my uncle
April 8, 2024 at 2:12 pm #178750@whalekeeper @loopylin LOL I’m laughing at this “Wait a sec, have we met???” conversation.
I’ve wondered that myself actually…..
Although I think judging from some of the location and timezone clues, y’all live pretty far away from me.
Where'd I get ya this time? The liver? The kidney? I'm runnin' outta places to put holes in ya.
April 8, 2024 at 11:48 pm #178769I’m your friendly neighborhood psychic š
I have never been to Idaho. Darn. I’ve always wanted to, though. And it’s not a weird question! š Since everyone wonders these things anyway, we might as well voice them.
Have you ever been to a Christian winter camp in a Midwestern area (which is nowhere near Idaho but idk where you live anyway)? A camp with a man-powered slingshot thingie that will launch you across the lake if you don’t have your seatbelt on??
Honestly we’d have more luck if we talked landmarks and popular vacation places, but everyone goes to those places, so it’s not a real jinx š
Oh I don’t know any Lindy, but that’s such a cute name š„¹ I love ittt

You’re probably right, and I can think of a few more that have been up at “late” hours. I’m barely keeping my eyes open, and it looks like they’ve just started š¤£
How many KPers you think live outside of America?
āEverything is a mountainā
April 9, 2024 at 12:06 am #178771Aw, darn, itās definitely just wishful thinking that weāve accidentally met, but itās still funny weāve both wondered about it.
I wishĀ Iād been to that camp. That slingshot by the lake sounds awesome. Though maybe not so much in the winter XD
but thatās such a cute name š„¹ I love ittt
āŗļø thanks
How many KPers you think live outside of America?
I know a couple live in Canada and one in Australia I think?

April 9, 2024 at 12:15 am #178772I live in the Midwest. What is the camp called? Is it Hilltop by any chance? I’m on eastern time and it’s past midnight where I’m at.

I will not give up hope for the future. *Gets overly emotional*
Oof Iām not sure, itās been a looooong time since I went there XD Iāll have to ask my dadā¦ I used to live in the Midwest, until my life changed dramatically like one of those YA contemporary novels and we mOved *gasp*
