I’m writing. Or getting distracted. Depends…

And the bridge of the Kapeefer song I’ve been writing!

Wolves with cat tails, cats with wings,

Sarcastic elves and raspberry kings

Is that not enough for you?

Then what about Aethasians, chair-melting dragons

Red-marker storms, Gramatacallions

It’s not finished yet…

@notawriter Welcome to the bestistest place on the internet.

Have you read The Count Of Monte Cristo? The Mistborn trillogy? Crime and Punishment? Cry The Beloved Country?

A favorite verse? Aaah! *beads of cold sweat* Well, if I had to pick, I’d probably go with. 2 Corinthians 5:14-15 “For the love of Christ controls us, since we have concluded…[Read more]

@sam-kowal  *applauds* Bravo! Nice song!

This is a little worship song I did a while back:

V1

Bright paths, carousels

People everywhere

Excitement is in the air

Adventure, fun and games

Welcome faces on

I think I took a wrong turn

I’m off the path

V2

Palm trees, paradise

Sun is shining bright

After a peaceful night

Seaside, breezy…[Read more]

@emma-flournoy  Does Daniel write? I don’t think I’ve seen him write…

@notawriter  Welcome to the Bestest Place in Cyberspace!!

I also LOVE drawing, journaling, and daydreaming about characters and stories I’ll never write! I have always loved stories. I’m not sure I’ve ever carved homemade stamps though…

My favorite Bible verse is pr…[Read more]

Ohhhhkayy  that was a long list XD

@perfectfifths  That actually makes more sense LOL

@jenwriter17  My favorite kind of music right now is actually instrumental music. My favorite albums/collections are:

• Fresh Aire — a series of eight albums of cheesy electronic music. Some of it is too cheesy to me, and all the rest is AWESOME. I listen to it as I write the KPA
• Windham Hill’s Winter Solstice — Also a series. I have volumes…

@daughteroftheking XD XD XD I totally heard David Attenborough’s voice as I read yours XD

@ethryndal  @shannon  Oh, it is true! I was attacked very quickly as a newbie.

I loved it XD

@mariposa

No, 150 is not too audacious. It’s not easy, but it’s certainly manageable. You could even aim higher if you wanted to push yourself.

Fyi, if you’re going to market yourself on Pinterest, you’ll have to create a business account. (it’s free and the only major difference from a normal account is that it allows you to run paid ads if you…[Read more]

My absolute favorite is “Go Teen Writers” by Jill Williamson and Stephanie Morrill.  Right now I’m reading “The Art of War for Writers” and I think I like it.  Jeff Gerke’s “Writing Christian Fiction” was pretty grand, so I assume the rest of his are great as well.  (I’ve only heard good things.)

If you’re worldbuilding, “Storyworld First” is a…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 I’m currently reading How to Market a Book by Joanna Penn so I may check those out when I’m finished reading her book. 🙂 I try not to read too many marketing books at once because it overwhelms me.

You are braver than I (the last time I took the test I got 88% introverted). 😉 I like the business card idea since it wouldn’t take me…[Read more]

@winter-rose Aw, that’s okay. Thanks for your support! 🙂

@lifeofkatie I’ve never much cared for Facebook myself, but I like Pinterest and Instagram.

Aw, yes, patience (that’s not always one of my strong points). 🙃

I haven’t done much personal stuff on Instagram or my blog, so that’s probably something I should try.

Oh, I’m glad I’m not the only person with that problem (I thought I was the only one)!…[Read more]

@daeus I’ve written down a list of various marketing goals for 2018. I’d like to have an audience of around 150 by 2019. Do you think that’s too high? I’d like to make a living from my art/writing someday, but right now my main goal is just to earn a little extra cash on the side.

Hmm… A marketing coach. That sounds like a good idea, but I’m n…[Read more]

@aratrea My main focus is art, writing, and fiction. However, I can write on a variety of topics. I have The Christian Writer’s Market Guide but it’s very outdated, so I’ll probably invest my Christmas cash in the 2018 edition (I do own the 2016 Children’s Writers and Illustrators Market Guide, but most of the magazines are secular and I prefer to…[Read more]

@winter-rose The KP resource library has a list of good writing books I would check out.

As for marketing books, I’d recommend Your First 10,000 Readers and The Book Launch Blueprint by Tim Grahl. I think those are probably the most solid marketing books I’ve read. I remember How To Market A Book by Joanna Pen having some good ideas too. You may…[Read more]

@princesswriter Cool! 😃 Which country was your favorite to visit?
