@morwen Welcome to KP! Homeschoolers who are obsessed with LOTR should basically be one of our names on here lol. I’ve been here for a while but have also been inactive most of that time.

You’re going to find a lot of MBTI enthusiasts here, my sister ( @aliaetter ) and I included.

Do you have a current project you’re working on writing-wise (I…[Read more]

@merieshenanigans I love CS Lewis, but I are you sure you want to admit to not reading Tolkien on here? That could be a dangerous admonishment (jk but seriously you need to get the audiobook for it or something lol)

@e-k-seaver Possibly. When I first started on here I had similar problems with sending replies but that was 3 years ago so I’m not completely sure if it is a new user thing (where the mediators are just taking extra precautions with new people) or if it’s the actual site.

@daeus thoughts?

@e-k-seaver yeah it takes KP a minute to load replies and sometimes you end up pushing the button too many times and it overloads the system, other times it posts it a gazillion times. It takes some getting used to lol

@e-k-seaver I have far too many notebooks with half-started stories lol recently my pet project has been to combine these into a single notebook where I can view them when (if) I ever finish the 5 I have lined up in GoogleDocs rn…

What’s your current WIP about?

@kathleenramm

That is so encouraging! I love it when I hear that people got my book! Last I checked, I’m not meeting my download goal today😥

@r-m-archer It’s interesting that you found the Hobbit boring; it was originally a bedtime story so it was meant for younger audiences whereas The Lord of the Rings was Tolkien’s precious (pun intended) to prove that all his world building and whatnot could be incorporated into an actual work.

I would probably choose Tolkien (because I struggle…[Read more]

@theacornman I know it’s been a while (like a year lol) and idk if you’re even still on here, but if you (or any other UK/Brit) are still interested I can send you my book now. It’s still not finished, but most of her storyline is covered.

Congratulations! That’s a big accomplishment

Hi, Em! Welcome to the Kapeefers (aka the only name we should go by)! What do you like to write? Are you working on any extended works (novels, nonfiction, poetry, etc…) at the moment?

@morwen I hope you like it!

@michelle That’s great! Thanks!

First of all, cool profile picture! Spider-Man is the best!

Second, you aren’t Team Captain America😱?? Noooo!! Actually, in the last movie, I felt so let down that he was an old man. It didn’t seem right. Captain America can never be an old man! It is weird he went to live in another time, but I am kind of glad because he really didn’t belong…[Read more]

Probably not using too many “…”s. I used those a LOT when I was writing a book based off my favorite television series (I basically wrote down almost everything they said, but they paused a lot, and I had a hard time ignoring those pauses in my writing).

Also, if you just write down your story, really following the train of your thought and not…[Read more]

I’d say either J.R.R. Tolkien, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, or Andrew Clements. Oh, or Beverly Cleary (who, surprisingly, I think is still alive). She is in her hundreds.

@kathleenramm, I’ve just been listening to the Narnia radio dramas by Focus on the Family again! They are so well done!

@michelle Sweet 😀

Do you think it’s publishable? Definitely!

Does it keep your interest? Yep! My only minor suggestion would be to make the rats pop up a little more in the story. They’re kind of just in there for the first chapter and then never mentioned again, which to me felt kinda awkward … but that might just be me being overly picky…[Read more]
