@leon-fleming Oh my word! I forgot Agatha Christie! **goes to hide in a hole for the rest of my life in shame**
Here, I’ll change my answer to Tolkien (for help in descriptions and world building), Agatha Christie (for help in writing compelling mysteries), and Lewis (for incorporating Christian themes into my writing). But please don’t ask me…[Read more]

@merieshenanigans I get the mind wandering thing. I have to do something with my hands while listening or else I’ll do the same.
Mandarin or Cantonese? Either way, consider me impressed. I grew up in China and to this day can’t read more than 10-20 characters lol I’m conversational but can’t read the characters

@merieshenanigans If you like audiobooks, there are some good ones on YouTube. That’s how I get through some of my harder texts faster because I can multitask that way. I’m “reading” Silmarillion via YouTube rn while I pack for school.
Thats cool that you can read it in two languages, which ones are they?

@morwen Welcome to KP! Homeschoolers who are obsessed with LOTR should basically be one of our names on here lol. I’ve been here for a while but have also been inactive most of that time.
You’re going to find a lot of MBTI enthusiasts here, my sister ( @aliaetter ) and I included.
Do you have a current project you’re working on writing-wise (I…[Read more]

@merieshenanigans I love CS Lewis, but I are you sure you want to admit to not reading Tolkien on here? That could be a dangerous admonishment (jk but seriously you need to get the audiobook for it or something lol)

@e-k-seaver Possibly. When I first started on here I had similar problems with sending replies but that was 3 years ago so I’m not completely sure if it is a new user thing (where the mediators are just taking extra precautions with new people) or if it’s the actual site.
@daeus thoughts?

@e-k-seaver yeah it takes KP a minute to load replies and sometimes you end up pushing the button too many times and it overloads the system, other times it posts it a gazillion times. It takes some getting used to lol

@e-k-seaver I have far too many notebooks with half-started stories lol recently my pet project has been to combine these into a single notebook where I can view them when (if) I ever finish the 5 I have lined up in GoogleDocs rn…
What’s your current WIP about?

@r-m-archer It’s interesting that you found the Hobbit boring; it was originally a bedtime story so it was meant for younger audiences whereas The Lord of the Rings was Tolkien’s precious (pun intended) to prove that all his world building and whatnot could be incorporated into an actual work.
I would probably choose Tolkien (because I struggle…[Read more]

@theacornman I know it’s been a while (like a year lol) and idk if you’re even still on here, but if you (or any other UK/Brit) are still interested I can send you my book now. It’s still not finished, but most of her storyline is covered.

@dekreel Sorry, I just saw your question to me. I would be perfectly fine being in the story as Alia’s sister. But don’t feel pressured to put me in. I know I’m joining this whole thing late. I’m excited to read it when you’re done!

Charis replied to the topic Infant and Child Characters in the forum Characters 6 years, 10 months ago
My mom told me that I used to sleep 12 hour nights from the day I came home from the hospital, so it is completely possible that this child could be sleeping soundly enough the whole time. I would just also mention cushioning inside the false bottom for the baby or else it may not seem as believable, especially if there is a lot of running and/or…[Read more]
