Hello lovely KeePers… just dropping a line to let you know that I and @Emma-Flournoy both are going to be gone for two weeks starting Wednesday the 14th… going out West on vacation with the family. So, we haven’t died if you tag us and we don’t respond. 😀 Don’t have too many great discussions without me.
Here… I’m just gonna tag the…[Read more] -

Hey, @Mark-Kamibaya welcome back!! It would be a poor welcome indeed if someone attacked you now… XD
I do see what you’re saying, and to some extent I agree. For the most part, however, we aren’t talking about scene-by-scene summaries. In @Daeus‘s case, it was several chapters summarizing a character’s childhood. (At least I assume that’s what…[Read more]

@Jess You might have already written the script if so how’d it go?
For any future script writing tips reading it out loud is the best help! Then you’ll hear how it sounds and if anything feels unnatural. 🙂

@Luke-C Hi Luke! Glad you’ve joined us here at KP! I’ve only dabbled in film making and found it’s lots of fun and a lot of retakes! Have you created any short films?
@anna-brie yes, yes please have your brother join!

I love the topic for the poem! Okay, you said you wanted feedback…so here comes some feedback. 😛‘Till I am overcome

It’s a lovely poem, @Overcomer— great concept, nice dexterity with the words and such— I definitely think it has promise. The one thing I’m not getting though is a consistent sense of rhythm. I’ll be reading, and think I’ve got a rhythm, and then I keep reading and the very next sentence it’s disrupted. I get the impression there IS a rhythm…[Read more]

@Daeus sorry, gotta run. I got 716 words written though, so I’m pretty happy.

@Julia-R
My grandparents live in Michigan, and my mom and dad went to Mackinac Island for their anniversary one year (I’m @ingridrd‘s sister 😉 ). I personally have never been there, but I’d love to go sometime. 🙂
Awesome choices for Disney characters! Rey and Rapunzel are both great characters.
Ooo, I love watercolor and acrylics, too! I’m…[Read more] -

@Luke-C
It’s nice to meet you. 🙂 That’s cool that you’re into science and engineering. I’m not much good with either. 😛 Action and adventure stories are awesome!
Anyway, welcome to Kingdom Pen! -
Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Howdy! in the forum Start HERE 9 years, 9 months ago
Howdy yourself, @Luke-C! Welcome to the bestistest place on the internet!
And any writing is better than no writing. You’ve laid the foundation; that’s always a start. 😀
Looking forward to seeing you around. -
Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Lessons from a recent revision. in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 9 months ago
@Daeus there is nothing quite as satisfying as realizing you’ve really helped someone. 😀
No. You didn’t miss a thing. I couldn’t have said it better myself.

And… pretty much everything’s been said. 😛 The one piece of advice I can give you as far as discipline goes, is make yourself a writing time and stick to it. I write in the evenings from seven to nine, and all day Saturdays. There’s an awesome thread on this…[Read more]

@julia-r
Write a story about a PRINCESS who turns into a frog and she needs to get a PRINCE to kiss her to turn back into a person. I don’t know if that’s a good dare or not, but you like Disney, and that’s the best I could do. 😉 -

Hi! Welcome to Kingdom Pen. I have to say that you picked the perfect place to grow as a writer and gain some writerly friends. I’ve done both since I joined. 😀 It’s great to meet you!
I’m with you on painting and drawing, Disney, and travel. What was your favorite place you travel to? Favorite Disney character (I like your…[Read more] - Load More
