    Umm, is it September or February? Or is Feb when KP started and Sep when the FORUMS started? @aratrea @daeus

      (I believe Feb was the launch of KP)
      
      Wait, I think I can figure out the exact date the forum started. I’ll get back to you.

@dragon snapper 😀 YASS! Except I’m from Australia…. But this is something I do all the time in other situations too. “Did you see that number (Aussie version of license) plate? Maybe it’s ____!” My family = *massive eye roll* 😛

LivGiordano started the topic Questions about writing a short story in the forum Plotting 6 years, 9 months ago

I’ve been desiring more and more to figure out how to write short stories, but it seems so…complicated.

So on someone’s blog, they are doing a short story contest. Here’s the link, if anyone’s interested: https://jesusisworthitall.weebly.com/for-writers/beauty-for-ashes-story-contest

Snapper replied to the topic Fighting The Block in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 9 months ago

Well you all are geniuses.

I mean really. I’ve been struggling with this stuck-ed-ness for months.

I took a five day break.

SO WHY DIDN’T A TAKE A BREAK SOONER!

I went back to writing today after missing it…for once XD… and wrote 1397 words that I actually like in one sitting.

So yeah. I LOVE WRITING AGAIN AND THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH!…[Read more]

So, it’s been a few years since I read the Lord of the Rings and I want to do a reread of the Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit but I also want to read the Silmarillion for the first time. The question is: should I reread and then read the Silmarillion or read the Silmarillion first?

Amily Huddleston replied to the topic Greetings! in the forum Start HERE 6 years, 9 months ago

Hi @rochellaine! I also write primarily contemporary realistic fiction. I find it easier to relate with modern readers and their problems that way. I’m too practical for fantasy!

Hey @jenwriter17! I love historical fiction, some non-fiction, and the occasional fantasy. My top three favorite authors are J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, and G.A. Henty.…[Read more]

@daughteroftheking Yes, I know what you mean! It has that Shakespearean sonnet feel to it 🙂

@jenwriter17 Which Tales have you read (or partially read), do you know?

@sleepwalkingmk @aratrea Thanks! I will keep that in mind when I pick Chaucer back up again 🙂

Would anybody be willing to read and critique my latest short story?

It’s about a missionary kid who is struggling with letting go of people and embracing new friendships.

I’m hoping especially for comments about character, theme, plot, etc… as I tend to struggle with the big picture of fiction rather than the small details.

Hey guys!

So, I’m just going to say it…. writing’s been hard lately. I just started another novel–10,000 words through– but as I write, I really have to force myself to keep going. I try to write well, of course, but I feel almost disconnected from my book. I can write as fast as I used to if I force myself to, if I really really try, but I…[Read more]

I love JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure because of its fast pace, crazy awesomeness and very unique tone! Yes, you should check out the others if you have the time. I specifically mentioned those few because of their stellar storytelling in the sea of subpar anime. 🙂

I created this topic to share all the funny and weird things that has happened to us being writers. Here’s a couple of my experiences….

I daydream while my mom and another mom-friend talk about their kids’ interests. I’m really not part of the conversation until my mom says, “My daughter writes books.”

@notawriter

I prefer instrumentals since a lot of lyrics do not really appeal to me. I listen mostly to soundtracks and scores from shows and musicals since I feel that they offer more variety than mainstream genres. I also listen to classical sometimes, especially Tchaikovsky. A relic from my childhood piano and music lessons.

As for my current…[Read more]
