@dragon-snapper Oo I love medieval as a genre. My only problem is that my characters all speak modern day English.
Tell me, do you like flying????

@daeus Sorry, missed you again!!!!!!!!! So out of practise and really busy.
However, is there anyone who wants to write now? @overcomer; @jadamae; @daeus; @kate-flournoy; @clairec; @anna-brie; @anyone-else-who-I-haven’t-thought-of

Ok people, this is like my topic, so I might just say a thing or two.

As I already mentioned, rewriting is, in my opinion, the most educational thing a writer can do. Forcing yourself to fix major problems teaches yourself so much about how you actually write and how it should look in contrast. Here are some of my biggest lessons.

@Daeus good idea. Okay people— so near the beginning of the book I had it so one character would be teaching another to sword-fight. I spent quite a bit of time developing their relationship prior to that— one character is so stubborn he wouldn’t have let the other character teach him if they hadn’t known each other for quite some time.

@kate-flournoy Actually, I would say there is no better way to learn writing, period.

Now I’ll have to be gone for just a moment because guess what I’m doing? Yep, rewriting.

By the way, you might want to give some more detailed examples of your lesson for people who aren’t familiar with your book.

Ha. Anything, of course. 😉 No limit.

Yes. Besides reading, there’s almost nothing that can better prepare someone for writing than rewriting. Which may sound a bit counter-intuitive, but it’s true.

Only one thing? Oh, dear. 😉

I’ve done a lot of rewriting and it’s a super enlightening process. I’ll have to think about this a bit and come back.

@dragon-snapper Yeah, well, one can only handle so many dragons and then it all breaks down into chaos.

@Dragon-Snapper awesome handle. Is there a story behind that?

Oh yeah— welcome to the Realm of the KeePers of the Kingdom. There are *ahem* a few dragons on this forum, myself included… it would be greatly appreciated if you refrained from doing any… erm… snapping? 😉

Where do you hail from?

Glad to have you here. *salutes* Captain. 😉

Hullo @bluejay. Are you writing tonight?

@dragon-snapper, Welcome!! I applaud you with great gusto! 🙂
The Kingdom Pen really is the bestistest place on earth!! (yes I know, @bluejay, you already said it!)
Where are you from? I’d like to ask other things but @bluejay got there first, so I guess I’ll just see the answers to her questions.
Welcome! Glad to have you. 😉

Howdy Dragon Snapper. Nice way to cruise on in. Looks like there’s a good forecast on the forum. Should be nice travel.

@dragon-snapper *stares at post with open mouth. Reads command at the end and obeys* **Applauds**
Welcome to Kingdom Pen the bestistest place on earth.
*Gasps* *I’ve always wanted to fly* Dreams do come true.
So…tell us about you. How long have you been writing? Favourite authors? Genre?
And I’ll say it again………..welcome. 🙂

@hope Not sure if this will work for your prophecy, but this is what sounded good to me.

Ancient sign, bitter fate
Scar and oath and quest
Name revealed by righteous power
Shall poison’s power wrest

Ancient weapon, bitter foe
Shield and spear and doom
Legend shattered, triumph claimed
A sign will show the tomb

Ancient battle, bitter bane,
Night…[Read more]
