Josiah DeGraaf replied to the topic Discussion for Video Two: The Importance of Theme in the forum Discussion Questions 7 years, 9 months ago
@aella I love that! One of the most intimidating things as an author for me is to read a really good book that really moves me and wonder how I’d ever be able to write a book as good as that. Theme definitely helps a lot with that, though, so that’s a great motivation for delving into theme more!

Josiah DeGraaf replied to the topic Discussion for Video One: Introduction in the forum Discussion Questions 7 years, 9 months ago
@hope That’s great. Haha, I can definitely sympathize with the struggle of moving a theme from the concept-level into the actual story! Keep that goal in mind while working through the course and I’d love to hear your thoughts on the other end of the course on how much the course helped you with that goal.
@anne-swiftblade That’s great! We’ll be…[Read more]

Hannah started the topic Computers, and the opinions on them ~The KP forum in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 10 months ago
Hello everyone! So, computers? I’ve had a dell laptop for a few years now, but the screen’s pixels are dying thereby placing me in search of a new laptop. I’ve heard good and bad things about Macs, and I really liked my Dell. I was wondering what y’all liked, and the strengths/weaknesses of different computers as I search for a new one. I use it…[Read more]

S.G.Dewey started the topic I need a character name! Help! in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 7 years, 10 months ago
I have had a pretty serious writer’s block since… well, for longer than I care to admit. Anyway, I am really excited about I new book I have started plotting/planning (and so forth) but I haven’t a name for the main character. (Late 18th century England) I would love some help, hopefully a name will help get me out of the block.

@anne-swiftblade It’s part of the regular forum. The topic for it is down at the very bottom below general site info. However, I believe there is a short delay between your registration and confirming that you can access the private forum.

BlueJay posted an update 7 years, 11 months ago
Okay peoples I’m STUCK!!!! I need a title for a story, but I don’t want to give too much away. So basically it’s based on Jane Austen’s novels and Charles is lord of Birchwood, a magnificent estate. His *cough* comes and well, kicks him out, so to speak.
My sister suggested the title “The Annoying Guest” which would work as a chapter title, but…[Read more] -

You could just call it “Lord of Birchwood.” I don’t know. Just a suggestion. Or you could call it *Cough*, since that seems to be a theme in your story. 😉
What is the genre?
@bluejay Uh oh… even the KP doctor has a cough. D’you think it’s from all that smoke from my melting the chairs yesterday? 😛
Lords of the Will
Birchwood Problems
The Lord of Birchwood
???
*hands you cough medicine* Sorry, that’s all I could come up with for now.
@dragon-snapper Yes, that smoke was terrible. So please don’t do that again. Ooo cough medicine, thank you. You know, if you were nice tempered, I could take you on as a nurse. 😉
@his-instrument Hehe. The genre…hard question since I’m not great with genres, but just think Pride and Prejudice. 🙂
How about “The Will of Birchwood”?
Or does that sound too much like a name???? :S
@bluejay
The title “The Birchwood Will” might work, if you think that “The Will of Birchwood” doesn’t work. 🙂

Hmm…a second on Lord of Birchwood.
hmm, I’m not sure, but here are some questions that might help you choose.
What lesson does the character learn?
What’s one word that could sum up the story’s conflict?
Is there anything extremely unusual about your characters or the situations they find themselves in?
What are common words used in titles for the book’s genre? (romance, I assume.…[Read more]
