@sam-kowal, did you really count how many turtles @daeus has?

@daeus Thank you for sharing this!!! I so agree! You put something hard to explain in simple terms. Yeah, I actually started writing Mahinia when I was searching for answers for myself. Its been a learning journey for both me and my character.
By the way, what are all the turtles for?

@Daeus *sniffles* It was an awesome gif too.

@Daeus my luck says this gif won’t work, but here you go anyway.
Awesome stuff. You should, like… I don’t know, do a course on it or something. XD

@rochellaine, yes. I have seen it. Thank you, though. Do you want to be in my story? I know how you feel about the “troll things”, and, although I don’t feel totally the same way as you do, I don’t plan to have them or The Evil in my story. Just asking.
@kaya-young, A purple giraffe. Yes, I definitely will be able to use you. Thank you. Very much…[Read more]

Thanks for sharing with the rest of us. 🙂 I really like how you said, “A good story should teach you as you write it.” -

…wow.
There’s a lot here, so I’ll analyze it a bit later (when I have time), but thank you so much for this, Daeus! I’ll get back to you soon, and once I plan out the story (and where exactly the gospel elements fall in it) a bit more, I’d love to get your take on different parts and pieces of it, if that’s okay?
Thanks again. @daeus

Hiya, @daeus! It’s going pretty well. Thanks for checking in. 🙂 Good! That’s something. XD
So far I have only reached out to about four or five people. Mostly family and a couple friends. I did most of it over text messages, saying something like, “A friend of mine recently published his book, and I was wondering if you’d like to read it for…[Read more]

Grace H. started the topic Character Development Methods in the forum Characters 6 years, 7 months ago
Hi everyone,
A confession I have is that I’m not very good at connecting to my characters and getting excited about them, and being able to develop even the side characters pretty well seems really daunting.
So how do you guys all get excited about your characters? Are there certain methods you use to do character development? And are you able…[Read more]

@celticcailin Hey there! I don’t write songs, and I don’t know anyone on the forum who does, so I’m going to tag a bunch of people who know a bunch of people, and maybe can help you locate advice you need.

valtmy replied to the topic Private Messaging in the forum Questions and Support 6 years, 7 months ago
I might consider that. Thanks!
Haha I know you guys are all really nice. The problem is that people outside the KP forums can access it as well and I’m shy about my writing. 😳
Hmm… I did think about using that feature but I know not everyone may want to give out their email so I wanted to check if…[Read more]

Oh. My. Word. Dekreel is a CHOSEN ONE!! Does our fair kingdom have four chosen ones now? @daeus @kate-flournoy @dragon-snapper

@daeus Oh, wow, thanks! I’ve already sent out the link to a couple friends and family… 😉 Or is it too early for that? o.o
When you say “collect subscribers manually,” do you mean keep track of who signs up for the newsletter and making a log out of it? I think that makes sense…
Mannn, I wish my server would let me download your…[Read more]

Yeah, you can get started now and you have the right idea with the signup sheet. Just two columns with the name and email.
If you want to email me, I can manually send you the book as soon as I get a chance.

@sam-kowal Thank you!!
I’ll look forward to seeing you two again, as well. I can’t wait to see how Stan has grown (or shrunk…)
@ariel-ashira Thanks a lot!! Ahhhh, satisfying endings…
@daeus Was it that good? Awwww, thanks!!

The GIF-Hiders: An Easter Story
Part the Last: Joy, Mirth, and Acclamation
“Three…”
It was noon. The public Easter worship service at the castle Regnis had recently come to a close. Creamy clouds slid across the sky, and The Raspberry Sun shone upon the Kingdom of Pen, bringing refreshing warmth.

@daeus Okay! That makes sense! (Is this where I ask the questions, or do I email you?)
So I’m looking on your link. Basically when people push it does it automatically sign them up for your newsletter?
One problem is I don’t use social media… Could I print out some advertisements and give them out at church or school? Would texting also…[Read more]

You can contact me here if you prefer it to email, yes.
You’re correct that when someone signs up for the book, they are subscribed. (Fyi, the newsletter goes out about once a month.)
You know what, thanks for the suggestion about tracking visitors. I realized I’m able to do something of the sort. This is your personal link for getting signups.…[Read more]

@daeus Oooh, I really want to try it. But I also really don’t want to use my email, which has my true identity in it… o.o
Would I have to have read some of your stuff?

Oh, wait, you already said I was an “ambassador.” Never mind… XD
Ah, glad you were able to read it! @dekreel
You can call yourself an ambassador or promoter person. Whichever you like. 🙂
That text looks good, though if you don’t mind, I think it would be great if we could experiment with some slightly different texts to see if we can get better results. So, right now, a quarter of the people you’ve…[Read more]
Oh, yeah. And you don’t need to be too formal. Friendly is good.
