@gretald: Okay. I love Michigan (Mackinac Island, in particular) and of course, Florida.
Favorite Disney character? Mmm… so hard! Classic: Minnie Mouse Princess: Rapunzel Star Wars: Rey Pixar: *bites fingernails* I guess… um… Can’t choose!
I mostly draw Disney and the many characters that populate my mind. I have also drawn pictures of…[Read more] -

Write a story about a PRINCESS who turns into a frog and she needs to get a PRINCE to kiss her to turn back into a person. I don’t know if that’s a good dare or not, but you like Disney, and that’s the best I could do. 😉 -

I’ve never written a script before, but I act. My advice is to create natural dialogue because that’s all you can write. Script writing in some ways is harder than writing a story because you can’t use any descriptions besides stage directions, though, on the other hand, writing dialogue is the easiest thing to write, at least for…[Read more] -

I am @his-instrument‘s (a.k.a Hannah R.’s) younger sister. She’s been begging me to get on here for a long time. I enjoy drawing/painting, I am a huge Disney fan, and I love to travel. I have ideas for books, but usually forget them or never get around to writing them down. Avoiding clichés is hard! I hope to gain some wisdom and friendship from…[Read more]

To all and sundry:
I am @his-instrument (a.k.a. Hannah R.’s) younger sister. She has been begging me for months to get on Kingdom Pen, so, here I am. I hope to find some writing help on here. I have many ideas for books, but somehow they never end up happening, or, I am afraid they might be too cliché. Hopefully you can give me some insight!-
It’s so nice to meet you, @julia-r! (I like your profile picture.) I think you will learn a LOT from the writers here. (I know I have.) 🙂 Welcome!

@jess, I have not written anything as far as scripts go, but I do act, so my best advice is to write natural dialogue, just like when you are writing regular storybook characters, allow the personality and humor to come through the lines, that way the actor can easily get a feel for their character and portray them naturally, if that makes any sense. 🙂

Really? No killing allowed? I thought this topic would be fun. Just kidding. 😉 😛@anna-brie
I agree about some names sounding ridiculous, especially if the story is set in another world. If the story is in another world, the names should be unique, but not…too unique. Like Farentobiolis (I just made that up; it’s pronounced…[Read more] -
Greta replied to the topic How naming affects characterization in the forum Characters 10 years, 1 month ago
It’s great fun how sometimes a name and a character just completely click. Sometimes, before I even name the character, I know what letter his name has to start with because it’s ‘his’ letter, so I brainstorm names that begin with that letter.
@kate-flournoy I do the SAME thing! For some reason, I usually have a character “letter” in mind.…[Read more]
