Wow… that almost sounded scriptural! I guess what you read really does rub off on your writing…
Yep! Sounds great! I’m too woozy right now to think of anything I can add to that train of thought— that always seems to happen when it gets late.
But I certainly agree about bittersweet endings. There’s nothing emotionally stirring about a…[Read more] -

Yay! Well, in that case…
No seriously, I want to read both of them, so I would have done it even if you hadn’t wanted to read the Lord of the Rings. 😛
And while climbing trees is somewhat of a dangerous pastime, I would not suggest giving it up altogether. I still do it myself, even though I’m sixteen and my siblings think I’m nuts.Okay……[Read more]

*Is ashamed*
Miss Hannah, permit me to extend to you a warm and friendly welcome to this perfectly sane and normal sight known as Kingdom Pen. I hope you will spend a very profitable time here, and enjoy a great deal of very serious, intellectually stimulating conversation. It is my wish, and I am sure, the wish of every person on this wonderful…[Read more] -

Stop it, guys. You’ll scare her off.
Anyway, *waves* hello and welcome, Hannah W!
If you need help figuring out the comment coding or anything, I’ll be happy to help. 🙂 -

I’m afraid, Ezra, that I lost it. Does happen sometimes. Especially with something like Pinterest. Yes, that works. I’ll blame Pinterest.

Hello Hannah and welcome to the Nut House. Glad to have you here. Are you by any chance a squirrel? Because we seem to have a shortage of those and a surplus of nuts here at Kingdom Pen. A squirrel would be nice for a change.

@daeus Hey Daeus, we actually HAVE the Count of Monte Cristo, and my Mom said I could read it if I asked you whether or not it has inappropriate content, cause she said she’s seen some movies of the story and they had some pretty bad stuff in them. Was that just Hollywood?

I think I’ll have to claim that plot. It fits right in with a villain who was really only a vague idea in my mind— heh heh. Sorry. I really need to stop posting novel ideas on a forum full of novelists. It’s bad for my health.
And let me just say, Animal Farm is a GREAT book. I read it, and I was just like ‘ouch’. It was so hard hitting I…[Read more]

Trust Rosey to post those pictures! Oh man… that has got to be one of my favorite scenes in that entire series. Poor Mr. Bush!

Here’s the first picture I was trying to post…Let me see if I can do it again, then I’ll be done. 🙂

Question…is there any way to put pictures in a post?

Hope Ann replied to the topic Chatter in the forum General Writing Discussions 11 years ago
No, I haven’t. But they look interesting. Has anyone read the Eyes of E’veria books by Serena Chase? I love them…well, the first three books that are out, anyway.

Ugh— the italics setting on these things drives me nuts. I always forget to turn it off.

Eh… the debate was so-so. It’s really difficult to give equal talking time to each candidate when there are so many of them, so it was kind of a confused mess.
I didn’t catch your Les Mis reference, not having read the book, but I see what you’re saying nonetheless. That’s certainly a very powerful way to do it.
But I just had this really cool…[Read more]

Where did you make this post anyway? I could only find it by clicking on the link. Anyways, The Count of Monte Cristo. I’ve never seen the movie so I don’t know exactly how it compares to the book, though I do know it does have many differences. My guess is the movie is worse.
Is Count of Monte Cristo book appropriate? That’s hard to say. The…[Read more]
I clicked on your name and then on the button that says ‘public message’ right next to the ‘add friend’.
Thanks for the book report. I can take anguish pretty well, or I wouldn’t be able to take a lot of the Dickens that I enjoy. Poison doesn’t bother me, blood doesn’t bother me, insanity doesn’t bother me, and so long as adultery is not shown,…[Read more]
Oh and you mentioned someone had a vision that was kinda obscene. Was it just… gross? Because I think I’ve encountered some pretty icky dreams and visions and a lot of other things reading C. S. Lewis’s ‘Space Trilogy’, which I didn’t like, but mostly for other reasons.
Fantastic. You will not regret it. I would not recommend it otherwise. Do expect it to be far more intense than a Dickens novel though.
If I remember correctly part of the vision included a nude Cleopatra and maybe two other ancients of names forgotten to me, or maybe I’m not remembering correctly, but it was only a passing reference.
I thought…[Read more]
If that was all, I encountered far worse things in the ‘Space Trilogy’ and was no more than briefly annoyed. Okay. I’ll go for it.
By the way, I wouldn’t recommend the Space Trilogy to anyone. It’s just not worth anything spiritually enriching you might glean from it. Too many gross and suggestive things about it, and a few blurred lines here…[Read more]
Really now? I read out of the silent planet and liked that. Are the rest that bad?
Not like wicked bad— out of the Silent Planet was pretty good, actually, and I went on to read Perelandra and That Hideous Strength, but Perelandra has a lot of suggestive stuff in it I think it could have done without, and That Hideous Strength is downright gross in so many ways. I just thought it was unnecessarily disgusting; unnecessarily…[Read more]
