Emma Flournoy replied to the topic Favorites? in the forum Book Discussions 7 years, 5 months ago
Hey people. *tips hat grinningly*
There’s this book I just read called Eats, Shoots and Leaves, by Lynn Truss. It’s non-fiction—about punctuation. But it’s not a long or dull read at all, and is funny and very informative/helpful. Especially for people like writers who’d use punctuation more than usual. 😉
The only objection would be: it has a…[Read more] -

I could say something, but I know other people who could write more thoroughly about it.

Leumeister replied to the topic Aquila in the forum Sci-Fi 7 years, 5 months ago
Hello everybody tagged below!
I’ve got a bunch of unfinished drafts of stories (plus the finished draft for the Pilot for Aquila) and I was wondering if any of you would like to alpha-read some of them (and, perhaps, beta-read the finished draft). I need input on what I’m working on because I’ve got some stories I’m stuck on.
So, for those of…[Read more]

Anne of Lothlorien started the topic My Attempt in the forum Poetry 7 years, 5 months ago
So, I read some of the poems y’all suggested. (I loved the Wreck of the Hesperus). And I tried one of my own. It’s a bit silly, and I don’t like the ‘magic’ and ‘tragic’ rhyme at all, but for lack of a better one, I left it. Maybe someone can help me change it? But how do you all like it?

Anne of Lothlorien started the topic My Brother Wants Y'all's Opinion in the forum Film 7 years, 5 months ago
Hey there.
So.
My brother is an animator. A movie maker. And this summer he is venturing out on another project, and he has made me his co-collaborator or something like that. So he asked me to ask y’all about it and if you like it and stuff.
So… here’s the basic plot. I’m still a bit fuzzy on it and it may not be one hundred percent accurate,…[Read more] -
Northerner started the topic Who here is thinking of entering Rooglewood's Five Poisoned Apples contest? in the forum 7 years, 5 months ago
It’s the last one they’re doing, and I’ve heard (though I can’t track down the rumour far enough to know for sure whether it’s true) that every submission gets feedback this time.
If you are, tell us about your…[Read more]

Mark Kamibaya replied to the topic Beginners' Tips For Writing Science Fiction in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 5 months ago
@brandon-miller Love how you summed up science fiction in that one sentence
A good sci fi story always explores what it means to be human in the present, by exploring alternative realities, past or present, and highlighting humanities strengths and weaknesses in those settings.

Mark Kamibaya replied to the topic Beginners' Tips For Writing Science Fiction in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 5 months ago
Sci-Fi Research Part 1
So the first thing I did was research what science fiction actually is. I looked for a whole bunch of definitions. Many went something like “science fiction is a genre that deals with futuristic science and technology” or “it’s merely a setting.” Personally, I found the “dealing with technology” definition to be quite…[Read more]

This is an invitation link to a discord group. This group is exclusive to people from KP. Please don’t invite anyone who isn’t in Kp. It will or could be used for chatting (more quickly) about stories in real time, and stuff. I’m not saying get rid of KP, considering this looks like it’s going to do away with the forum…[Read more]

Northerner started the topic Thank you, KP! in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 6 months ago
This weekend I saw a girl who I’m certain is a writer, though I never talked to her (I’m trying to get contact information for someone who might know her, so I can ask for her contact information in a slightly less creepy way than otherwise, but that’s another story), and she reminded me how much of my writing life I spent alone.
I started…[Read more]

Hi All!
@Daeus, @Rolena-Hatfield, @Jess, @Northerner, @Brandon-Miller, @Mark-Kambiya I was wondering if you could help my best friend Holly Nelson-Gray. She has asked a question on dialogue but it doesn’t seemed to have reached anyone. If any of you could respond she and I would be most grateful.

Mark Kamibaya replied to the topic Blogs: What Would You Like to See More of? in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 6 months ago
I can’t honestly say, because my own blog is my ideal blog. It blends the topic of story and Christianity/philosophy/opinion articles with some fitness on the side. I sort of want it to be like the Nerdwriter Youtube channel which I think is just totally awesome.
But as for topics, I honestly love philosophical musings and a…[Read more]

I love your profile picture, it’s so cute.
Anyway.
My favorite blogs…well, I don’t have just one single aspect that keeps me coming back, but I love personality. I love sassy authors, like @ethryndal. She’s not afraid to say her opinion–no matter how crazy–and it keeps me reading.
My favorite blog would have to be the…[Read more]

@brandon-miller writes sci-fi. Perhaps he has some tips. (yes, I’m putting you on the spot :p)
@Emily-D as Mark said, in June here at KP our monthly topic is Sci-Fi! So watch for articles next month that will be a good resource!

Please someone, anyone, I implore you on bended knee… draw Josiah the Wiser, sporting his scraggly coarse tarantula beard, with a frog (grinning evilly) on his head. Anyone who can draw, please try… if you need references, just look at his avatar, or watch the Stereotype videos
