Thank you! That actually helps a ton!!!

@reaganramm

I found KP by accident, believe or not! I read tons of blogs and stuff, so in all my searching for resources for young writers, I happened upon KP. The blog has been a HUGE help to me throughout my writing journey!

@lillian

Yeah I totally get that. I have a cast of about 6 main characters and they all decided to rotate favorites in my head until I figured out who they actually all are 😅 How do you come up with character ideas? Do they just come to you or do you have to sit down and go through a process to figure them out?

The House: *emo hair flip* “Bro, you just don’t get me.”

This house is actually such a fun idea. That was just my first thought for some reason when I read that part 😂😭

Actually though, I love that so much!!!! 🤣 That is lowkey House for sure!

@bilbo-baggins

I know, I’ve been practicing 😞

One day. Do not lose hope.

You should try it.  It’s very good and does not actually taste like butter, despite what the name would imply.

And fear not. You will not be defenestrated today.

@lillian

I use graphite mostly, but I sometimes use charcoal pencils, watercolor, acrylics and recently have gotten into digital.

Cool, I’ve just started doing digital art recently too!

ummmm I have no idea…..

In my opinion the objective answer is ‘snallygaster’ 😛

@lillian

I seriously am already in love with your characters!! That is the kind of blurb that causes me to pause while scrolling through endless stories on my library’s app. I would so read that!

Now I have to ask: Of the four you mentioned, who is your favorite? Who is your least favorite? And, if you don’t mind sharing, why?

@highscribeofaetherium

I know, I’ve been practicing 😞

WOAH THAT IS ALL SO COOL! I’ve never actually had butter pecan… Perhaps I’ shall try it sometime! And glad I’m not getting defenestrated… unless I am for another reason.

@koshka

Sure why not?! I’m in!

@whalekeeper @koshka

Thanks for the advice! I have spent the past five years learning as much as possible about plot structure. I’ve tried (among other things) the snowflake method, the 3-act story structure, numerous authors’ plotting structures, and pantsing. Sarra Cannon has been a recent follow for me, but her methods all use color coding and…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

How would you describe House’s personality? 😛

House is normally pretty fun-loving and friendly. Right now it is depressed and angry (think stereotypical teenage angst type thing) which leads to it’s lashing out towards the other characters. One morning, for example, my characters woke up to find the kitchen totally flooded o…[Read more]

1. I LIKE TO READ. AND RUN. AND PLAY PIANO. NOT AT THE SAME TIME.

What, you don’t do it at the same time? Sounds like a skill issue to me. (jk)

Now I expect you to answer all of these question as well.

1. Reading, drawing, 3D modelling, and videogames!

2. YES (my favorite is Vantage, which is like if an open-world videogame was…[Read more]

@koshka

Naturally. All in the name of research. *grins thinking of all the things that could be considered “research”* So I could visit Middle-Earth for at least a century or so for research then, lol 🙂

@ellette-giselle

Thank you so much!!! I’ll have to check it out!!

@lillian

That’s awesome!!! I am very similar. I have been writing for as long as I could remember. Or making fantasy maps 🙂 But about 5 years ago I decided to get serious with my writing. So I have also been writing for 5+ years!

So I’m going to ask this but no worries if you don’t have an answer! What is your highest word count on a single project?

@elishavet-pidyon

Thank you for cleaning up the broccoli, it is much appreciated. But what was that I heard about secrets? 🧐

ANYHOODLES, hello! I must agree with you that Elrond is a very superior character, as are Pippin, Sam, and Faramir. As for Tolkein’s work, I have merely read the Hobbit and the three (or one? If its all put together) Lord…[Read more]

@koshka

Hello Koshka! I would definitely ride a dragon for a day, because that’s just epic. What about you?
