Oh, @bluejay, it’s called Wild Australia. Are there any videos/documentaries/etc. on Australia you would recommend?

Hmmm…. that’s a great thing to raise funds for, @bluejay! Who will you be giving the money to? (i.e. Compassion, Samaritan’s Purse, a missionary at your church, etc.) Well, the only games I can think of that haven’t already been suggested would be searching through something like rice, blindfolded, to find a small object, like a marble, pebble,…[Read more]

@Ethryndal, as always I’m far too late, but Welcome to the bestistest place on the internet anyway. Yes, @bluejay, I know you already said it, but I just couldn’t help myself. Hope you enjoy your time here. 🙂

@anne-of-lothlorien, So glad you love it here as much as I do! 🙂 I too have been blessed with a clean, Christian loving environment here on KP so thank you very much to everyone who makes it happen. You know who you are… 😉 So, yeah, lets thank God for KP. I always feel we ask God for a lot of things, but maybe forget to thank and praise Him as…[Read more]

Anne of Lothlorien started the topic I Wrote This in the forum Music 8 years ago
So,this is for songs that you’ve written, and when you want to put the words.
Here’s some lyrics to a song I just wrote. Unfortunately, you can’t hear me sing it, which is too bad, because I flatter myself I do it well, but here’s the words. This is the first one I’ve done, so it might sound weird to you. And don’t read it like a poem, cause then…[Read more] -
Anne of Lothlorien started the topic Little Peoples in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years ago
No, I’m not talking to you. I’m talking about little children. I have a lot of trouble writing little kids. The youngest I’ve ever written extensively about is an 11 year old. That may seem weird cause I have four younger siblings age 11 to 2, but it’s hard!
So, if you guys have any advice, information, how you write little people, their thought…[Read more] -
Anne of Lothlorien replied to the topic You know you are a writer when… in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years ago
You know you’re a writer when you’re so distracted planning a plot twist that you unwrap a Starburst, put the candy in the trash and the wrapper in your mouth. Then you spit it out and make a disgusted face, then morph into making faces that your MC could make when he’s poisoned.
You know you’re a easily distracted writer when you start out…[Read more]

@bluejay How convenient. I was just going to say I was leaving as well. 😉 Good job on finishing your story! Was it a short story, or a longer one?
I managed to get 329 words *winces*. Ouch. you can tell I’ve had writer’s block. 😛 Though, I did take a small break in the middle, so it’s not so bad. Either way, thanks for writing with me!

@bluejay Great! Thanks for joining me; maybe I’ll actually get something done for once. 😉

@bluejay @overcomer @kate-flournoy @daeus @winter-rose @hope @jess … Heh… *looks around guiltily* Sorry I haven’t been around guys. I think it’s time to get back into it, though. Anybody want to have a go with me?

Anne of Lothlorien replied to the topic NaNoWriMo in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years ago
@hope – That’s okay. I’m at my grandma’s house, and I can always reload on sweets here. You are right about the extra words. I still haven’t gone home yet, so no writing been done today, so I might only have the evening to write. Ah, what’s another late night in the grand scheme of things. I think my whole life has been training me for NANOWRIMO.…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper – Yes along with all my metal thingys in my pockets I usually have paper and a pen and pencil. I don’t carry notebooks in my pocket because they get bent. You carry a saddlebag around? I carry a backpack to basically everywhere, even church, but it’s so cool! @corissa-maiden-of-praise has the same one I do, and instead of things…[Read more]

Okay! I am very sorry that this is so belated. I’d written it in a document and forgot to post it. @sarah-h (and @bluejay), here we go! *takes a big breath and lets it out slowly*
We have seals and sea lions. (look them up, they’re actually pretty cute!) Living in Queensland, I have been to the Great Barrier Reef multiple times. Snorkeling there…[Read more] -
Mark Kamibaya replied to the topic Favorite Movies in the forum Film 8 years ago
I’ve been studying up on theme. Especially in movies. So I was wondering if you could give: Two movies that have, in your opinion, extremely powerful themes. If you could also give why those movies have such great themes or how they made the theme awesome then that would be even better.
Now I’m not talking about themes like “Peace is better than…[Read more]

Now I’m not talking about powerful themes like “Peace is better than war because true peace isn’t tainted by man.” That’s a decent enough theme. Great even. But it isn’t necessarily powerful…[Read more]

@emma-flournoy – True about human people. Hee hee. I mean my evil is not a presence/spirit, but a real person with the qualities that human’s normally have.
@kate-flournoy @Daeus – It is so much more interesting to write complex people for villains. @hope had a writing prompt on twitter or pinterest about a villain who is working undercover in a…[Read more]

@julia-r The funds will be going to CBM.
Hey, I like that game. You say you’ve done similar games before, can you tell me how much rice would you put in the dish (how big is the dish) and are they allowed to use their hands?
I would get a really big storage container (like utility bins) and fill it with as much rice as you can. Rice is cheap, so it shouldn’t be a cost issue. And yes, you can use your hands! It’s fun to rely only on touch to find things.
Another similar suggestion (this might appeal more to younger folks) is to put the pieces of a 6-piece puzzle in the…[Read more]
