My suggestion to help you out with this crisis, is to give up writing (and reading for that matter) entirely.

You simply can not be a complete Alpha Male (which I assume is your purpose in life) if you do anything even remotely related to arts and sciences (unless it’s Bro Science of course).

So free yourself from…[Read more]

@anatra23

Yo, I’m so glad this topic exists. Anime/ Manga is so fun to discuss.

I’ve only just started watching Anime last year, and my favorite was Erased for awhile, but just last month I watched Promised Neverland and took it it’s place as favorite. The characters are my favorite out of all the anime I watched and the writing was spectacular.…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon XD Makes sense. I joined the Kingdom a little after I started writing so it really has been a long time.

@devastate-lasting

hey Lin, thanks so much!  it’s so hard to balance, i know!  that’s what i need to hear right now… i might fall asleep on my homework haha :))  slowing down is something i’d love to do, but i just don’t feel like it’s possible right now.  even though it probably is. :))  and i’ll definitely remember to contact you some…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon About six years at this point. I’m old, haha.

@elishavet-pidyon Nice, nice. I’m looking forward to seeing how you grow!

@not-so-secret-secret-assassin

you crack me up. XD  um, personally i loveee working out, but idk how serious you are about all this ahaha so…

i mean, with school and basketball and stuff, it’s hard for me to get in the gym, so i mostly do bodyweight stuff at my house in between studying breaks.  also, depending on your schedule, if you can w…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon I’ve finished first drafts of loads of things, but haven’t really gotten around into the editing phases, so I don’t know if I can exactly call it finished, haha. How long have you been writing?

@elishavet-pidyon Is this your first book?

@not-so-secret-secret-assassin Oh wow, what a travesty. I wouldn’t say exactly my life fell apart, I merely moved on from my old life and started a new one. I died and moved on. But my writing life…my writing life became like the sandwich you described, yes.

@e-k-seaver I’m guessing 15, give or take.

@not-so-secret-secret-assassin Haha, you make me laugh. Per usual.

Well, guess what! My life, this past summer, has also undergone some drastic changes. My writing schedule (and everything else) was taken by life, punched through like glass, and the shattered pieces were handed back to me for me to piece together. I have an awful memory, so…[Read more]

@nova21 Aww, Ella, I’m so sorry to hear that you’re dealing with so much! I can really relate to you right now, I’m also struggling to balance life and emotions and school and writing. It sounds like you have a busy schedule! I guess I can only tell you what I’ve been telling myself: It’s okay to take a break. It’s okay if things don’t get done…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon *deadpan eyes* To find a job.

Oo, Alyona sounds awesome! And I’m glad you’re able to know what themes you’re going to express; I never seem to know what my themes are, even after I’m long done with something. I suppose I’ll have to ask an English teacher one day…

@elishavet-pidyon Ah, main characters are always a struggle for me too. I tend to develop them as I’m writing, so I don’t tend to know who they are until I start.

Yeah, I’m really busy right now too with school. School makes everything rough.

@koshka Ah, I won’t say my church, but we basically did Bible quizzing through a program called AWANA, not sure if you’ve heard of it. I live up in the New England area, so our paths probably haven’t crossed.

I write urban fantasy, eastern fantasy, anything but high fantasy. I tend to combine crime and fantasy, so a lot of my stories (well,…[Read more]

@trahia-the-minstrel Haha, that meme is quite true. I love the author’s works a lot, especially Silver Spoon.

The Promised Neverland has some horror elements (spoiler: it’s basically about a bunch of kids that raised on farms to be eaten by monsters) and it does get gory at times. The manga is much better than the anime. I haven’t watched the…[Read more]

@koshka Hey there! Late welcome to our Kingdom of Pen! I’m usually one of the early greeters but I don’t think I’ve welcomed anyone in a long time due to school, hhh…

I’m Linyang, but everyone here calls me Lin, and I enjoy writing crime and fantasy. I was homeschooled as well, and I did a ton of Bible quizzing as a kid. Honestly, I can totally…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon What about you? What are you currently working on?

@elishavet-pidyon I’ll do this for my current WIP so I can better write it. Thanks for asking me stuff!

My main character is Joey Garcia, a 24 year old worker at a store. I think his struggle throughout the book is to find reason to do something as well as how best to convince someone to give himself up. He’ll probably accomplish both of these…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 I still haven’t read the last volume of The Promised Neverland, ahh…the art is super pretty!
