So I don’t know who all will actually see this but…
I must let you know…
I have succumbed…
I am ACTUALLY enjoying editing my draft right now! 😆 I typically don’t but… that has now changed. 😁

Yeah, I’m also using an app (Duolingo). I think it helps me stay focused to just do a little bit but do it every single day.
I’m using Duolingo as well!! I used to do it daily, but when I broke my 60-something day streak (😭), I didn’t care so much about keeping the streak anymore. XD
I can’t believe I didn’t think of the accents!…

Ah, ok, sorry, lol. It’s part of our Church that we don’t drink coffee or tea, (well, tea is a little more nuanced, like herbal tea is fine, it’s more just black tea) and a lot of people like to tease us about it a lot. Sorry I assumed, lol!
Oh, ok. Gotcha. 😉
You’re good! I was completely clueless until now. XD 😀

Your not trying to find members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints with that question are you? Because I may be guilty, lol.
Erm…
Nope…?
Why do you ask?
(Sorry if I sound clueless, lol. 😅😁)

I don’t drink coffee. I typically drink water, but when I have tea I like fruity tea with probably too much sugar.
Ok. Gotcha. For me, I like both coffee and tea, but prefer coffee. Especially when it’s in the form of a frappe! 😉 Tea with too much sugar is always the best, tho! Lol
I’m not sure. I’m currently focusing on Spanish – I thi…

Ok. I tried to tag those who I know have done article before.
So I have some questions.
I’ve been thinking about writing an article to submit to KP for publishing… but I’m not sure where to start.
Could I have some help in tips on how to plan and write an article?

Ok, ok… so you say that you like 80s music?? That’s SO COOl!!! I LOVE the 80s style and vibe and such. I haven’t dabbled…[Read more]

Oh, yes!! I’ve heard of Avatar multiple times before. I knew that the names you mentioned sounded familiar. 😉 I’ve heard really good things about it. If I ever get the chance, I’ll try to watch it!! 🙂

Also, if you can’t find a spark of goodness in your villain, give him something to love. Or give him a dream. (yeahhh… maybe I was just recently listening to “I’ve Got A Dream” from Tangled. XD) So give him something that he longs for, or give him something/one that he’d do anything for since he loves it/them so much. This works…[Read more]

exactly. Can’t be mad at the chosen though because it’s just the truth probably! In reality, Jesus loved him even. It’s heartbreaking.
I loved Judas even before the chosen so it really breaks my heart. I wish he could’ve found forgiveness in the end before he…you know
Right. 🙂

@elishavet-pidyon @godlyfantasy12 and @foltih-feolin have all made some great points.
I agree with what they’re saying. Most if not all good villains think that what they are doing is right. I don’t think that anybody goes out and does something wrong just to do something wrong. We all have some kind of intent behind our act…[Read more]

I love it! XD It’s making the castle feel more like a book than it has so far, since there’s more conflict. 🙂

Oh yeah. I gotta answer my question. Lol XD
Ok.
So I really like characters like Ev. XD Charries that are impulsive, headstrong, most likely stubborn, but stand up for what’s right. And maybe they sometimes let their temper get the better of them. 😉 Another example of this that I can t…[Read more]

Of course! 😁
Hmmm, good question, When reading, I really like many of Brandon Sanderson’s characters. Like Szeth, he’s a indirect inspiration for Liren. Or Kaladin Stormblessed. These characters are those who have suffered to such high degrees, and you want soo bad to see them rise above those tri…

I attempt to make my plots complex, and… I don’t know if I succeed or not. XD
Yeah, I hope to share more in the future when it’s more complete! Though I could maybe post the first few chapters… but I’m not sure.
Awesome!! 😀

Fun fun! I did band because I’ve never been much of a singer. XD
Cool! I do band as well. I find it so much easier to play with a bunch of other instruments than on my own. 🙂
Cool! I actually like editing! XD you don’t?
Well… I kind of do. XD It’s more a love-hate relationship. Once I start doing it, I know I won’t procrasti…[Read more]

WOAH WOAH WOAH this is big news! XDXD
Isn’t editing fun? I tpically enjoy the first pass (because who doesn’t like rereading there work… oh no does that make me sound self centered lol?)
But yeah after that is gets old XD
Yeah XD.
There’s just something satisfying about finally filling in all the holes and putting the puzzle pieces together to make my book have more unity. Idk. I think that makes sense. XD
