@rochellaine  Hello, hello. 😉

I am doing some characterization and world-building…

@seekjustice @rochellaine @dekreel @dragon-snapper

@bella-d I could answer this, but I’m most interested in what @kate-flournoy would say since I know she’s faced something similar and overcame it.

@rochellaine  Ooooh!  My favorites are Unter, Byrk, and Anret.  🙂

Welcome! @kaya-young Ooh, some of your favorite authors are mine as well. I love Elizabeth George Speare and CS Lewis.

I really love your name. It’s so pretty.

What’s your favorite color?

Have you read the Ilyon Chronicles, or Lord of the Rings? They’re both really good. Ohh, and how about Chuck Black? If you’re a fantasy fan, I think you would…[Read more]

Welcome! @aviantrail Do you have many siblings? I have four younger ones. What’s your favorite color?

@alia  Hmmm…I always have trouble drawing children, but I might try.  Anyone else?

@dekreel @gabbyj @clairec @itisastarrynight

@aviantrail Welcome. 😀

If you’re a Star Wars fan, would you happen to also be a Kylo Ren fan?

No death threats if you’re not, but I’m just saying. I think he’s pretty cool. 😛 😉

@kaya-young Hi! Welcome to the bestistest place on the internet.

A homeschool grad here. What type of books does Jeff Bridges write?

@aviantrail  *waves enthusiastically*  Welcome!  I know this is a boring question, but where do you go to school?

@kaya-young  Hello!  I am also 15, homeschooled, and have three younger siblings (also an older sister)!  Do you have a favorite genre to write?

Hey @kaya-young! Welcome to the bestistest place on the internet. Yeah, yeah, @seekjustice, I know you said it first but, *shrugs*

I’m Australian, like @seekjustice, Where in the States are you from, assuming you’re from the States?

Hey @aviantrail! Welcome to the bestistest place on the internet! 🙂 Hope you really love it here. How long have you been writing? Where in America are you from?

@jenwriter17 Thank you! I meant to tell you that I found it before. 😉 It was actually published here on KP a while ago, I think. And it’s really helpful. I just reread it. There’s so much to learn.

@that_writer_girl_99 Kind of, I guess. *face desks* Actually, tbh, no. Not really. I’m still figuring it out. But more, what I’m wrestling through now, is actually showing the theme is a way that’s not preachy. I’ve decided not to have God actually in the story, but to try to portray it as a reflection of his glory. This is tough. XD But I’m…[Read more]

@alia Oooh. This is a really cool question.

There are a lot of approaches you could take with this. Most importantly, I think you need to think outside the box. Maybe that means reading more widely within the fantasy genre for inspiration. It definitely means asking yourself what if questions.

One suggestion is to make God an antagonist for a…[Read more]

@dekreel I haven’t really tried manga before.  The one time I tried it, he kind of looked like a Roman monkey….

I like mine to be the most necessary lines and nothing more. Like this:

I drew that for the Leumeister a while back.

@daughteroftheking Ooh… That’s pretty cool! 🙂

@jenwriter17 Ooh boy. Pen names? Welllll…

To get ideas you could always find a name from one of your stories–whether obscure or not.
I don’t think you need your pen name to be completely random either. I mean, if you want it to be, by all means let it be. XD However, I think your name could have more significance if it had some attatchment…[Read more]
