If there are people here who are interested, I could set up a Kingdom Pen cabin. 😉

@Daeus It’s kind of like NaNo month (where you write a novel in one month…or at least 40,000 words) but there are two camps in the summer. One in May (I think) and one in July. You can set your own word goal, from 5000 words and for the month. Then you can join a ‘cabin’ with ten(?) other writers and you post your word counts each day and there…[Read more]

I vote:
1. Through the Looking Glass
2. The Scarlet Letter
3. Ender’s Game

@timothy-young Ooo, I really like Freedom’s Cause, The Cat of Bubastes, and The Lion of St. Mark. I think one of my favorites is For the Temple.

Thanks. I’m glad you liked the article. 🙂 I don’t really have an option on authors of Greek and Roman warfare or history. I’ve just been slowly going though the small selection our library has and r…[Read more]

@Kate-flournoy I know…it’s so sad.

@Daeus Personal opinion, I suppose. I just don’t care for his voice and how he sings it. I’ve heard other versions, like one by Josh Groban, which carry the emotion of the song but which I think sounds better.

@Kate-flournoy, @Daeus, I love Les Mis music! My favorite song is probably Empty Chairs and Empty Tables (but sung by someone else besides the actor 😉 )

Back on topic; book voting: Alice Through the Looking Glass. Or Ender’s Game.

@his-instrument Yes! I’ve done that. Well, the writing and rewriting and rewriting. I’ve one book I’m working on that I wrote four years ago. Then I doubled the length, then I rewrote quite a bit of it. And now I’m reworking it again… And I’m not even going to mention another book I wrote last year which I’ve revised a few times and have now…[Read more]

@adry_grace The reason I asked about OUAT was that, in the last season they go into the underworld and end up helping some of the people down there ‘move on’ by completing their ‘unfinished business’. But I suppose that’s just a general aspect of ghosts. 🙂

What if the character thinks his ‘power’ is being invisible? At least to most people. I…[Read more]

@adry_grace

Oooo, cool ideas! *rubs hands*

I would think even ghosts would be restricted to time, though it might seem to pass differently for them. Can they move fast? If so, maybe time would seem to pass very slow and they can get a lot of things done in a few minutes and then are bored. Or maybe they zone out if nothing is happening so it…[Read more]

@timothy-young That is fascinating! I know very little about any part of Africa and love hearing about new places. And perhaps…perhaps our government isn’t quite as bad as it could be… 😉

Welcome, @timothy-young! I love the Scarlet Pimpernel! I think I’ve read all the books, or at least all the books I could get my hands on. And I like military history…well, Roman and Greek history, which is mainly battles…

And…I think most of the interesting questions have already been asked. 🙁

Also, blogs are fun! Make sure you tell us…[Read more]

Perhaps I could go the other way and do something about undiscovered power…hidden power…true power. Hmm, I’ll have to go muse on that a bit.

@overcomer and @kate-flournoy Crowned Powerless is growing on me too. Though I’m still not sure. I’m not getting too many positive responses to these titles, with Powerless still being ranked twice as high as any other name. *sighs* But that is what I want to know now, so I don’t publish a book with a cheesy or weird title.

This novel has given…[Read more]

And if you guys think they are all awful, just tell me. I’d rather know now than later. 😉

@bluejay my favorite right now is Shattered Power.

I’ve been messing around with the word ‘powerless’ and here are a few ideas I’ve come up with:

Powerless Power
Crowned Powerless
Shattered Power
Powerless Fate
Powerless Name

Thoughts?

@Daeus, @Kate-flournoy, @anna-brie, @gretald, @overcomer, @bluejay, @everyoneelse So here’s a related problem I’d like your thoughts on. Should you publish a book with the same title as a book already publish? Nothing iconic, like Hunger Games, but simple, one-word titles like Powerless. Powerless, for example, has about four books under that…[Read more]

Love the title, @bluejay
