Snapper

@godlyfantasy12 Yo, those two ideas both sound awesome! You should totally go for them!

As for me, I’ve had too many story ideas that are half-baked which I’ve written beginnings to…most for short stories or novellas. I’m swamped with novel/web serial ideas right now, so I can only pick and choose a couple of ideas to work on.

One is a short…[Read more]

@anatra23 Welcome, welcome! Please, do have some of the brownie cookies I made!

Anyways, as you may have well gathered, we’ve planned a surprise party for you! So without further ado, I shall bombard you with my usual set of welcome questions.

Ready?

1. What are some of your hobbies?

2. What genres do you like writing?

3. What’s your current…[Read more]

SUUURPRISSE!!!

Happy birthday, and Welcome to the kingdom pen forum, in case you didn’t already know, I am the host of this party, although it didn’t go completely according to plan…. I’m glad to have you here.

want some fruit from my epic fruit bowl? And here is your birthday present.

What’s it called when someone gets salt thrown…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

lol yeah I guess there’s that 😂

(AHH that makes me so happy! 😁 )

@joy-caroline
Ooh I like it! 😍 Since I haven’t written much fantasy, I’ll leave that up to others. But awesome job!

*throws glittery confetti*

Hey! Welcome to the forum! Sorry for being a tad-bit late, but transporting 13,794 balloons to this party was a bit trickier than my grandfather told me.

Ah! I also brought some cherry soda if you’d like any. It’s not the best cherry soda in the world, (that requires a plane ticket to North Carolina and a…[Read more]

@molly

Those genres are all really fun! Do you usually write short stories with them or longer-length projects?

Your WIP sounds quite interesting! What stage are you at with it right now?

Vanilla ice cream is indeed supreme. As well as cheesecake.

Eyy, pineapple on pizza gang!

@writerlexi1216

I think, privacy reasons aside, I would only go for a pen name to disguise the fact that I was a woman, but as a couple of other people have said, that’s less of an issue than it used to be. For example, if I was to write YA that’s a female dominated area of publishing and being labeled as a Chelsea wouldn’t be a bad thing at all.…[Read more]

I think the forum moderator can delete posts….

But it should be fine.

oh wait i need to add a joke…..

JOKE!

@joy-caroline

My secret is…that I don’t. I literally don’t, if I can help it *hides in shame*. I’m still trying to think of a name for the city in the last book I drafted. The book I’m currently writing has absolutely no names. The fantasy novel before last has a world literally called the Dreamland (though this has a meaning and significance…[Read more]

@sparksaraabbott11 Yup. Got that right.

RULE UPDATES

1. Introduce yourself one at a time

2.  The “lol”s must come naturally. So you know what that means….

3. WAIT FOR THEM TO INTRODUCE THEMSELVES FIRST!!!! It’s a surprise party after all

@elfwing
Stop whistling innocently and hit her with the stick already. SHE CAN’T KNOW. SHE CAN’T.

Good idea.

RULE UPDATE: ONE AT A TIME PEOPLE.

I’ll add these rules to the main topic.

@daisy-torres

To be honest, I wasn’t too sure about the sound of that cookie recipe either. I just didn’t say anything to be nice. Let me know when you think of a new recipe to bring to the party. And maybe test it first this time?

Oh yeah, keep that cheesy joke in the bag. Keep it secret. Keep it safe.

@gracie-j @sparksaraabbott11 @writerlexi1216 @devastate-lasting @joy-caroline

Okay everybody, that was a great practice round. Put away all your foods and gifts and sweep up the confetti.  We can’t exactly all come out and yell “SURPRISE” when they haven’t even walked into the room yet sooooooooo. Remember, I said the next HUMAN to join the…[Read more]

@sparksaraabbott11

I’m glad you think so.

@sparksaraabbott11

epic.

@ariel-f I remember one of my favorite manga artists saying that if the story he’s writing doesn’t surprise him, then he stops writing it. And I am always surprised and astounded by his work. Truly wise words.

To be honest, I struggle with this a lot. I honestly really dislike the characters I made back when I started writing (well, not dislike,…[Read more]
