Perhaps you should do a slightly stricter outline for your books.

Hm… yes, more like ‘perhaps you should do an outline for your books.’

Believe me, I’m trying that with the next one. 😛 It can’t hurt to try.

Ooh… that’s a tough question. My absolute favorite poet of all time is J.R.R. Tolkien. He’s slightly famous, though not necessarily for his poetry. 😛
I love just about every kind of poem there is, though I tend to gravitate to sagas and ballads more than anything else.
As for what kind of poetry I write— well, it’s kinda difficult to…[Read more]

Sloggels! I’m adding that to my dictionary!

It’s a time thing. I realized halfway through the book that I spent waaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyy too much time with not really important things in the first half, so once I finish writing the thing I’m going back and fixing a lot more stuff than I ever had to fix before.

And I was exaggerating……[Read more]

Whoops, I was meaning to put up the video. Anyway, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8F9jXYOH2c0

Glad you guys like it. 🙂

Welcome to the Kingdom Pen kingdom, MK! Always great to have someone else to bounce stuff off of. 🙂
Glad we are so interesting to stalk. 😛
Gosh, I had no idea how prominent Ohio natives were on here. Well, I know I shall have quite a bit of fun if I ever visit the state. Though it is a long way from my personal soggy swamp of a homeland.
I…[Read more]

And I’m trying to hurry up! I’ve got at least five people on my back, so I’m bound to finish it at least before the beginning of 2017… maybe… 😛 😉

‘Pickiness is the mother of perfection…’ I like that. That should be my motto. 😛

Thanks Daeus— all very good points. I should probably do everything you suggested…

The thing with Gair, though, is he can be really nasty. Not the sort of person who just invites friendship. Besides that, he looks sinister even if he’s on your side, and…[Read more]

Welcome, @mas410! Welcome welcome welcome!

I knew I’d been having a creepy feeling of being followed these last few months…

But this is the bestistest place on the internet. In my humble opinion. I don’t blame you at all for stalking it. 😉

I live in Southern Ohio, and love poetry too, though I don’t have the level of skill it takes to…[Read more]

Hahaha… so fun, @writefury! I don’t think I’ve seen the Studio C you’re referencing, but I got the story just from the poem. 🙂

Thanks so much, @writefury! Denholm and Cobalt should be friends. 😉 😛
I’ll definitely work over that line and see if I can enhance it a little… it’s funny, because I didn’t really see that line as anything all that special or out of the ordinary, but now that you mention it I can see it has potential. 😀

Yes, one thing I forgot to mention is…[Read more]

I really like this, Kate! Really cements the like of Denholm I already had. 😉
One line that stood out to me and I’ll comment on now before a more in-depth read over. “Monotony becomes monotonous.” It’s funny and made me smirk while reading over it, but I think maybe with some rewording or additions it could be funnier if you want it to be.
It…[Read more]

A logo is a good idea. Currently I’m thinking about changing the header of my e-mails to plain text…or maybe not. I looked up Fiverr and that could work. Though you have to pay extra for colors most of the time and if you want to have full rights, you pay more too. Maybe I’ll see if I can get my brother to help me. He’s good at art stuff when he…[Read more]

@Daeus Thanks. This is the first time I’ve tried something like this, so any and all kinds of feedback and suggestions are appreciated. 😉

That’s awesome, Hope! 🙂

Well, what is Christmas break for if not catching up on writing and putting things I’ve been learning into practice? 🙂

In case anyone is interested, I’m starting a newsletter which I’ll currently be e-mailing out every month. It will have humorous writing incidences, exclusive contests, news about WIPs and fun stuff like that. 🙂 You can sign up for it here. 🙂

@Daeus (and everyone else), have you checked out this free book of Nick Stephenson’s about marketing? It’s really good, and nice and short as well. 🙂

The romance doesn’t have to be an overt story plot either; it can just be a quiet subplot that filters in though the story itself (if that made any sense).
