@jenwriter17 Thank you!

I wake to the sound of rustling grass and the smell of blood. Only, I can’t see anything, not even when I open my eyes.

“Did we win?” I mumble breathlessly.

Akila wipes stray hairs away from her face. “Yeah, why?”

I grunt, struggling to sit up. “If we won, why am I bleeding?”

So…the title basically says it all. One of my two POV characters is a boy. I am a girl. Hence, the question.

Guy writers. Tell me how your brains work, please. Or just some tips. Or examples of what NOT to do. Like, if you read a book by a girl author with a boy POV and they failed miserably, how did they do it?

Also, just for…[Read more]

Graenw smiled maliciously, although Victor wasn’t quite sure how the creature’s face managed the expression. “I want you to destroy AAAAALLLLLL THE HUUUMMMMMAAAAANNNNSSS!” He screeched. Victor…[Read more]

No, honestly, I actually screamed. My mom freaked out. I had to explain, “No, I’m fine, just…remember those books me and Emmy read where we kept screaming every five seconds? Someone on KP just mentioned the freaky Nobody dude that wanted to start a…[Read more]

Just sayin’.

ANYWAY. Here ya go, @ariella-newheart

Here is the summary-ish thing for my WIPs. (Wait. If I haven’t started writing most of them, are they even WIPs? Idek.)

Embers Burning (Fantasy) : Amber, a fifteen-year-old girl living on a colony island, is living an uncomfortably perfect life with her…[Read more]

Thank you for being the best editor-in-chief KP has ever had (to my knowledge). I can’t say anything eloquent right now so I’ll leave it at that.

@dekreel Awwww! She’s so cute!

Thank you. I must read it. SOON.

@notawriter YES PLEASE! Anyone who wants to draw Amber can do it! It’ll sure help my brain.

You know what? Funny thing happened today. I was actually thinking about trying to write this part, when lo and behold, the book my mom was reading to us (Prince Warriors) (awesome) had a scene where the kids were taught how to use their swords! So I have a rough idea of what the scene should look like.

You know you’re a writer when you assure your siblings…[Read more]

@dekreel You can draw her too! I’d love to see what you think she looks like.

(Confession: I am “fascinated with swords” [see signature] but am actually rather a noob at swordfighting.)

I finally got swords in my novel! Well….they’re practice blunts, but I got to write the word “sword” so I’m pretty happy.

But I don’t know how to teach someone to use it. Has anyone ever written a scene where your MC is taught to use a sword? Because I am rather clueless.

Hopefully.

If I don’t get distracted.

Which I probably will.

Oh well.

@sam-kowal @dragon-snapper @ariella-newheart @dekreel @ingridrd

But I understand why you might be concerned about an overload of cold cloudy grayness. (I can’t seem to get enough of that in…but then again, I’m not to the gray parts yet….anyway.)

I’ll take some examples from my Aislinn Mollisong: Hero! roleplay for this,…[Read more]

And yes, there is a reason.

I would like it if someone drew my MC Amber. She has dark brown hair that goes down to her waist and is just the slightest bit wavy. Her eyes are golden/amber-colored, she is rather…[Read more]

You  guys are nuts. In the best possible way, of course.

Ah’ll dae a poem. SOMEONE TAG ME AND GIVE ME A TOPIC!

It was amazing. (The meme-thing doesn’t even do it justice) I keep flip-flopping between loving Ike to pieces, and wanting to smack him upside the head with his own book.

Incredible.

ARIARIARIARIARIARIARIARIARIARIARIARIARIARIARI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YOU’RE HERE!!!!!!!!!!! Finally!

Guys, Ariella is THE ABSOLUTE BEST!!!!!!!

I’m so excited you finally JOINED!

(Was this enoughski “help meh” for ye, lassie?)

And the explaining….*earth-shaking groan*….If I offhandedly mention my book in public, and someone says, “Oh cool! What’s it about?” I have a scripted response to prevent complete rambling.

“It’s a fantasy book, and it’s got dragons and stuff.”

No one really asks any questions…[Read more]

I don’t really know if I’ve read any books written then. I don’t really check, buut I have a suspicion I’ve mostly read books written in the last ten or twenty years.…[Read more]
