*Waves* Aww thank you! I like yours too! 🙂

Basically, a dystopia is the opposite of a utopia. So usually, a dystopian story is set in the future usually with a corrupt government, futuristic stuff, and some kind of disease or war that like makes things…messy XD. Like, an apocalypse sorta idk.

It really is! I’ve written a…[Read more]

@lydia-s

Thanks! I have some more contemplative lines, especially in the one where he’s given charge of the heir. You know, the whole “here I am, guarding one who’s father I let die. I hope this doesn’t get him killed too.”

But Wilfred has a resilient humor that I’ve had fun expounding on.

Yes, fanfics are great!

Yours sounds so good. That’s a…[Read more]

Haha! Did I just spell new like knew?! That’s really sad XDD

@trahia-the-minstrel

Wow, I’m also late to this XD

Holiday stuff, ya know…

Those covers are gorgeous! I especially liked the second one! The details are awesome, and I love the titles! That’s so cool that you can draw like that too. I mostly just use Canva for my graphics/covers, and even that is pretty difficult (for me anyways) XD

I…[Read more]

@autumn-rebecca

Hello and welcome to KP!

Also, sorry this is kinda (more like really) late XD

My name is Ava and I write mostly sci-fi/dystopian stuff, but I also write a little fantasy and poetry at times. 🙂

That’s cool that you write non-fiction too! I’ve never been brave enough to actually write it, although I enjoy reading it.

I guess…[Read more]

@anatra23

Yeah for sure! I haven’t seen it yet! I’m kinda behind on Marvel movies rn (i.e. Hawkeye, Shang Chi, the Loki Show…) Yaaaa I know XD

I did get to watch NWH, which was amazing (and heart breaking tbh) Have you seen it?

My church is pretty big, so idk. I am on the youth worship team tho (just for vocals), which has been super fun! So…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

Haha, ugh. I’ll have to finish it. It was actually somewhere in Waterloo that I bottomed out. After a few attempts to read on, I returned the book to the library.

Yes! A complex backstory is like honey in sourdough. Technically not necessary, but important if you want to make good dinner rolls. 😉

As for a favorite trope? Well,…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

XD Oh no! Yeah, I would like him to live longer, but I think it’s an important plot point, character struggle, and place to relate to the reader. He is a protagonist, though, so… I don’t know. For a complete confession, (and funny fact) I actually made his character starting from his death and moving backward. It’s been an…[Read more]

@autumn-rebecca

Exactly! XD

@autumn-rebecca

I hope so… =/

Thanks, and your welcome! I probably talk about my books waayyy too much. XD

@joy-caroline

Ugh, yes. Why, oh, why must authors think they have to – or that it’s just fine if they do? IT’S GOD’S WORD, not a toy?! And like you said, the Bible is moving in itself. No need for embellishment.

*Heavy sigh*

ANYWAY….

The Life of Jesus, you say? I’ll have to look into it.

Okay, that’s fine! I understand. (Why can I still…[Read more]

@autumn-rebecca

Thank you! Sometimes it feels like I’ll never get my books written and ready.

The first two in the series are set in a medieval time period, while the last is sort of World War/War on Terror time. I am using animal characters (sort of like Green Ember or Redwall) only I’m writing it for an older audience (Of course, the books…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

It really is! I’m enjoying it 🙂

@anatra23

Oh yeah! My brothers were the same way (and still kind of are) but they respect him, especially after his arc came full circle in End Game. It is intriguing! Marvel’s character developments are priceless.

I used to take a lot of lessons for more classical piano, but recently I’ve been…[Read more]

@autumn-rebecca

Exactly. 😉

@keilah-h

Me too. Especially when it’s unexpected, like when it appears that the antagonist has “bested” the protagonist, but then in a few words that changes. XD

@autumn-rebecca

Anytime!

@autumn-rebecca

Yeah, this stage doesn’t want to end. There’s so much to sort out!

Welcome! If you want to know about anything particular about his books, I’d be glad to help, if I can. 🙂

Did you know that at one time the English banned bagpipes as weapons of war? The Scotts used them like battle horns, and according to records, the bagpipe’s…[Read more]

@autumn-rebecca

Hello, and welcome to KP! (Sorry for the belatedness of this welcome.) I am Koshka, or at least that’s what I’m called around here. I have two major WIPs at this point. One is a non-magical medieval-fantasy trilogy which has gained my central focus. I’m hoping to be able to aventually publish it. The other is a historical fiction…[Read more]

@autumn-rebecca

Aww, it’s so sweet and musical. I like how you incorporated melody into it, and your description of Aaria’s death is beautiful. It’s one of those stories that obviously has a backstory but more isn’t really needed.

@autumn-rebecca

Thank you! I’m still in the plotting-building stage, but I think I like how it’s going.

I haven’t read beyond his Arethtrae series, but what I’ve read of his is good. We really like the Knights of Arethtrae.

Bagpipes can sound sad…and warlike.

Hmm, Geechee sounds interesting; I’ve never heard of it. Why do you like…[Read more]
