Wow. I am EXTREMELY late. Somehow I missed this thread until now. But then I saw you had Vin as your profile pic and just had to comment! 😉

I am currently reading Hero of Ages (Mistborn book 3). I only discovered Brandon Sanderson earlier this year when I started Steelheart…and then I read the entire Reckoners Trilogy in a week.…[Read more]

@ashlyvye XD no. Huh. Somehow my message dissapeared when I tried to post it

Yes! I have done that before. I know what you mean aout picking up parts of things from books, though. If its not something I would normally do at all, I wouldn’t pick it up. Wheras if its something I kind of already have, then I’ll get part of it from the book.

So I…[Read more]

@ashlyvye Trailblazers by Dave and Neta Jackson. 😉 Its not really spectacular.. I think since its a collection of short stories you don’t get very attached to any of the characters (Well there were these two characters from two different stories I liked.. but both of them died.) but it’s cool if you’re looking to read about missionaries. 😉

@ashlyvye

@ashlyvye XD Yep. Stan’s full name is Giarstanornarak, although it’s actually this odd dragon-culture title where the ‘rna’ is an honorific and his normal name is Giarstanorak. Sort of like ‘Brightlord’. XD I’m definitely not a crazy person

Yes, it’s Dalinar himself having the visions in the highstorms… actually, I don’t think I remember…[Read more]

@ashlyvye  OH! I never explained it to you, did I? *bangs head on table*

KPA stands for KeePer adventure. It is, as you can see, a story about all the awesome beings on Kingdom Pen. So by “being in the KPA,” you are a character X)

@ashlyvye  Just because I like you and I thought you might like reading this…… 😉 (Mostly cuz I like you XD )

Hmmmm! Do you want to be in the KPA sometime?

@ashlyvye I’m reading a book with lots of stories about missionarys.. Or rather fictional people who have their lives impacted by missionarys. The ones about Amy Charmichael and David Zeisberger  are my favorites so far. And I’ve started reading The lord of the rings.. Though I’ve been been very proactive about that. 🙂

@ashlyvye Storms! cool. Way of Kings is an amazing book. It starts out confusing, actually, because its a lot to get into. And then… well, then it happens. The worldbuilding is simply epic! Shardblades, Shardplate, highstorms, chasmfiends…

XD XD Haha

There’s actually kind of a funny story behind @dragon-snapper and I’s signatures. Snapper…[Read more]

@ashlyvye I don’t think I’ve ever thrown a book across the room before- or at all. Though I’m sure I’ve been tempted. 😉

@ashlyvye  Yes, @dragon-snapper has a knack for melting chairs. It’s a thing XD

And the endnotes are called “signatures” 😉

@ashlyvye Oh sorry! *blushes* I meant there is an article about why Twilight was(is?) so popular.
I think it was called something like.. “Why Twilight is a bestseller and your novel isn’t” 🙂

@ashlyvye Oh, there were others when I joined. I showed up just in time to crash their party, and now they’ve made me king. How cool is that?

@ashlyvye  Andrew Peterson wrote my absolute favorite book series, The Wingfeather Saga, and D.G. Snapper (a.k.a. @dragon-snapper ) is writing a sci-fi trilogy. I beta-read the first book a few weeks ago 🙂

@ashlyvye There is actually an article here on KP about that! I don’t know how to do links but if you look through the last 5 or so articles you will probably see it! 🙂

@ashlyvye I don’t really get why everyone likes the Twilight series so much, and that’s after having read all of them (maybe being about vampires during the vampire craze helped). I guess if you strip the plot to its skeleton then it’s got an okay premise. Other than that everything doesn’t really make any sense. I didn’t like the main character…[Read more]

@ashlyvye  I think Daeus was one of the people who started Kingdom Pen, so naturally he’s been here for a long time 😉

@ashlyvye  Favorite authors… Let’s see… Maybe Andrew Peterson, ’cause he wrote the Wingfeather Saga XD

I also like C.S. Lewis and J.R.R Tolkien, although I haven’t read them in a LONG time.

Oh, and D.G. Snapper X)

@dragon-snapper

@ashlyvye Wow that’s a really pretty name! 😀 Never read the Twilight books and I hope I never do haha. No offence if your a fan.
