Thanks!! 🙂

@mkfairygirl

Hmm… that’s a hard question. I don’t remember them very well since it’s been around six-seven years XD Yeah, I just might! Haha, I appreciate the clarification.

@joy-caroline

‘Course!! 🙂

@mkfairygirl

Thank you!! Yeah, it was for school when I was around that age… I think I still have the book somewhere in my room! I need to dig it out again 🙂 Oooh, I’ll have to watch them!! Thank you for recommending them!! *high-fives* I looked them up and saw there were a lot of them!!

@joy-caroline

Of course not!! 🙂 I didn’t know KP had…[Read more]

This is a great idea!! Unfortunately, since I’m beginning NaNoWriMo in April, however, I’m afraid I won’t be able to participate in this. But good luck to all who do! 🙂 Thanks for the tag!

@godlyfantasy12

Abigail and I were just sharing info about our characters : ) There’s no specific questions. Yes, I know! Talking about characters is so fun, isn’t it? I’m not strict when it comes to POV charries–one character gets a chapter, one character gets two chapters, et cetera…

@scripter-of-kingdoms Ooh this is such a fun idea! I unfortunately doubt that I’m going to be able to participate fully, though I may in a smaller way–maybe 100 words a day or something. Thanks for tagging me!!

@abigail-m

Thank you for taking the time through that… lengthy post XD And thank you very much! It makes me sooooo happy (and made me grin) to know you find my beloved characters interesting! I think a lot about backstory in characters and use that to sculpt who they are now. And thank you—I heavily emphasize Caira and Deek’s relationship and h…[Read more]

@kathleenramm I’ve been thinking about this question ever since you posted it, partially because it’s such a good question, and partially because the one full-length screenplay I’ve written was about a Godfather-style fairy mafia. Title? The Godmother. You’re welcome. 😛

Nowadays, I think I would love to write a comedy, preferably one with some…[Read more]

@tabitha-cassandra Hello and welcome to the Kingdom of Pen! Would you care for a cup of tea? I offer one to all new arrivals. 😀 I’m Elizabeth by the way, and it’s so very nice to meet you.

Your WIP sounds so cool!! What drew you to sci-fi? I’m more of a fantasy writer myself, but do love a good science fiction story.

*high five for a fellow…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

Of course you can join us, girl!! 🙂

@abigail-m

Great!! Warning: this may end up being a looong post, so sorry 🙂 As far as deepest fears…

Caira’s deepest fear is being alone. After she loses her entire family (other than Deek), she feels like she’s blindly beginning this new life completely on her own, without her parents or family to help her, and she feels bound by fear. Eve…[Read more]

@abigail-m

Aw, thanks!! And *looks around* *whispers* no, I won’t tell him, though I think that about him all the time! 😀 Thank you! I thought those names fitted them well, and I think your characters’ names fit them well, too! (I still adore the name Mejia so much!!) I love nicknaming my characters, too. Sometimes I’ll refer to Newton as ‘Newt’…[Read more]

@abigail-m

Phew! That’s good to know that I haven’t been boring everyone with them! XD Yeah, I think those characters are the most adorable ones (like Deek)! I’m glad you decided to include the romance in TSW, because I already adore your characters and definitely ship Mejia/Filip 100% 😉 Ooh, those are some great names! Though I have to admit I…[Read more]

@issawriter7

Oh, no problem, girl!! 🙂 And I’m very happy that I could help!! (I mean, I mostly fangirled, so sorry XD) Yes, you did an AMAZING job with writing those first couple of chapters (and Colin), and I’m very interested to see what’s going to happen! I’ll try to keep reading more on the other doc soon, but I have a bunch of tests coming…[Read more]

@abigail-m

And of course!! I mean every word!! Yeah, I’m pretty sure my family thinks I’m a nut, but *shrug* that’s fine. Awwww, that made me smile unbelievably huge!!! I’m so happy that you love them, ahhhh, it gives me such a warm, fuzzy feeling that other people enjoy listening to my lengthy rambles about my characters 🙂 Newton is super…[Read more]

@abigail-m

I saw it in my email!! 🙂

@godlyfantasy12 @gracie-j Lol I’m either in the middle of like, draft 6000 or the longest draft 1 ever so take what follows as you may

Honestly, what has helped me the most to get into my character’s heads is to work on a scene I’m dying to write, whether or not it actually fits into my draft. (This is one reason why I have several dozen…[Read more]

@buildsbygideon For me, the book that’s been most foundational in my (recent) life has been Finding God’s Life for My Will by Mike Donehey. My husband and I read it out loud together this year (twice, actually) and it was such a wonderful read. It’s a bit hard to summarize, but I saw it described on Goodreads as part Christian living, part band…[Read more]

@abigail-m

Of course!! 🙂 I can already tell you’re an exceptional author from how you talk about your writing!! I’m very happy for you!! Oooh, I’m the same way—I could go nuts talking about my book (I think my family is probably bored of it by now because it’s hard for me not to talk about them), so I understand!! XD Yeah, shipping is out of my…[Read more]
