I texted the collage to my co-writer, and she loved it! Thank you again!

@maryg3

Oh, goodness, I am very late… Welcome to the KP forum, Mary!

Ah, the wonderful C.S. Lewis… I’m a major fan of his as well. Have you read Til We Have Faces? I have yet to read any of his other adult/YA books. I’d love to try is Space Trilogy someday though.

I’m not sure what questions have already been asked (I suppose that is one of…[Read more]

@ben-dykes

Well, I am unfortunately quite late, but welcome to the KP forum!

Wonderful genre choice! I’d love to attempt writing sci-fi someday; what do you enjoy most about it? And congrats on finishing a novel!!! It takes a lot of work and determination to get to that point.

Here are a couple questions, if you’d like to answer them:

1) What…[Read more]

@precious-y

Agh, I am very late… *facepalm* But welcome to the KP forum, Precious!

Those are awesome genres! I have yet to dig deeply into sci-fi, but I’d love to do that someday. Contemporary is really fun to write. 😀

I’m guessing most of my favorite questions have already been asked, so I guess I’ll just ask my absolute favorite. 😉

Who…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting lol thanks!

@nova21 Hahahahaha cinnamon rolls! That’s great! XD

@gracie-j

Hey Gracie!  Aw, thanks girl!  I love quiet, gruff guys… they’re so soft on the inside, like cinnamon rolls… XD

@keilah-h

Nice!  She seems pretty curious, and now I’m curious about your story! 😃

@gracie-j

you’re welcome!! 🙂

I totally understand what you mean; I do that so often, which is why it’s lovely to have several very different people in my book so one can ramble, one play devil’s advocate, and the other one, who’s the quiet rough one, can end any stupidity happening in the disagreement. XD

@nova21

haha, thanks! I guess she’s based on yours truly *bows, then hesitates, evaluates character, and wonders if I actually paid myself a compliment or not… *

@gracie-j

First of all… I LOVE the name Keaton! second, his dialogue seems to fit. I suppose just keep his lines short, don’t have him using too many please n’ thank you’s and keep…[Read more]

@writerlexi1216

Hahaha!  I already love Felicity!  😉

@devastate-lasting

He totally sounds like you described him.  If I had to go on an adventure now, I’d want him to be the leader! 😉

@daisy-torres

Can I hang out with Catherine for a day, please?  Just a day? XD

@lewilliams

Hahaha!  Poor Horace.  *cough* dumb teenagers *cough* 🙂

@nova21

You’re welcome! 🙂 the story sounds so intriguing, and I’m sure it’ll be epic, whatever you decide!

@kayleigh-idea

Hey Kayleigh!!  Of course!  That’s a great idea, I definitely get wanting that feeling of satisfaction. 🙂

@elfwing

Hey Elfwing!  Thanks!!  Oh I totally get that!!  That’s an awesome idea, thanks for the advice!

@daisy-torres

Hey Daisy!  Aw, thanks!!  That’s super helpful, especially the part about realizing that he can love <…[Read more]

@writerlexi1216

Been there. A lot.

I agree with all these fine folks!

I will break up my advice:

1: I’d say don’t try too hard on things. If you’re finding it hard, write what you can, and don’t push so hard you’re on the edge of tears (personal admonishment for myself right now XD), but as Elizabeth said, refill!!! I love writing, but at…[Read more]

@maryg3

Thank you! it took me a year and a half to decide! lol

Well, I must say my inspiration was partly from a Griffin clan keychain pendant I was given two years ago. One side of my family two generations back has that last name. 🙂 That triggered the story being started as well as the story of the MC (main character), but the actual world…[Read more]

@will_starke

sorry, your tag didn’t go through the first time

@nova21

haha!! Great idea!! And I’d say your MCs dialogue fits.

My sci fi book MC is shy in big groups but stubborn and has her opinions and likes to bug her brother

her first three lines in the story:

(Omits action) Alden, stop it! I hit in here five minutes ago!”

(Omits action) “Good morning. I didn’t burn the house down so that’s encouragi…

@maryg3

yes I did come up with a name; The Forgotten World

haha thanks glad you like the meme!

@keilah-h

i see!  you still did well 🙂

@writerlexi1216

This is ALL too relatable, Lexi!  The way I usually (try) to overcome writer’s block/burnout is picking up a different project.  I have *counts Scrivener docs* 25 WIPs from the last 2 yrs.  Not that they’re perfect.  (Or finished.)

This way really helps me to take a step back and pick a project that I’ve been developing pre…[Read more]

@maryg3

ahhh yes they totally ruined the Hobbit movies. Although I think they did a good job of Smaug

LoTR is my favourite book to read and I’ve listened through it several times too! Cool that you listen through it too! I have the  unabridged audiobook copy narrated by Rob Inglis. I can fall asleep listening to that book now lol

i am cu…[Read more]
