Definitely will be praying!

(On a side note, there’s actually a whole thread where we can post and respond to prayer requests, which most of us visit frequently)

@rochellaine. Thank you for praying!  Okay, I didn’t know if I was breaking a rule by posting something unrelated to writing.  KP is just such a good place to ask things like this.  🙂

@ariel-ashira Praying for you!

And don’t worry about it not being about writing.  People post prayer requests here all the time.  I did, myself, a few days ago.

@rochellaine Don’t apologize.  I couldn’t agree with you more, but even if I disagreed, I would still appreciate you being so real with us!  Thank you for all you have said.

@cacatwing I love your cat!  Looks so much like mine, except mine are outdoors.

@warrenluther04 I hope you aren’t scared to put me in a story after all this.  🙂 It tak…[Read more]

@dekreel Idk I guess I also have relatively selfish reasons for blogging. My blog is really just a filing cabinet full of stuff I’ve learned (that might be helpful for other people).

Whenever I learn some really cool insight on Scripture or life in general I write up a blog post about it. Or if I want to delve into story theory/mechanics then I…[Read more]

@sleepwalkingmk Oh, those are some good ones you’ve seen! 🙂  (I actually haven’t seen all of them yet.  But I’ve seen at least clips of all of them.)

Maybe this will make you feel better about the old westerns:

(As I said before, I don’t like John Wayne either. 🙂 ) Gene Autry and Roy Rogers had a much cleaner style.  I don’t remember whe…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 Oh, did you cry too?  I cried.  Even though I’d read it before, and knew what would happen, I still cried.  And if I read it again – and I probably will – I’ll cry again.

@seekjustice

@sleepwalkingmk Thank you for agreeing with me! 😀  (I like it when people agree with me. [Is there anyone who doesn’t like it when people agree with them?] 🙂 )

*hands out white carnations* *weeps* I’m sorry, I’m busy today and won’t be able to attend your funeral. But I’m not convinced you actually died.  Couldn’t you possibly be only mostly dead?

@seekjustice oh, and I hope it’s okay, but I read your short story too.

trying to make us cry, huh? 😉

it worked.

@sam-kowal Okay, let me back up. 😀  When I said Pilgrim’s Progress was the original fantasy work I didn’t necessarily mean it was the first fantasy work, since I haven’t researched the area of fantasy very extensively.  I do consider it at least one of the first fantasy works, and perhaps the first major one.

The difference between it and …[Read more]

@daughteroftheking  Awesome! Thanks 😉

@catwing Because pie is yummy. *wiggles eyebrows*

@rochellaine I was half convinced @dekreel was a fox for a while. I’m sorted out now though. 😉 (you know you’re a Kapeefer when you know the species of your fellow writers, because they’re not all human.)

@filewriterbase13x Ah, yes. I can never figure out how many spoilers about my story is too many. 😛 Nice profile pic! Did you draw it yourself?

@rochellaine *applause* this is really good! 😀 a book of poems you say? sounds awesome! #futurecustomer 😉

@rochellaine *faints*

Hmm, that’s interesting about Pilgrim’s Progress. Is something like Beowulf considered pre-fantay if it came hundreds of years before Pilgrim’s Progress?

@ashlyvye I write fantasy, primarily, but currently I’m working on something which is more like sci-fi/ dystopian. Realistic science fantasy sounds really cool :D. The…[Read more]

@catwing *gets email* *opens browser faster than you can say “pirate”* THIS WAS AN AMAZING SURPRISE THANK YOU!!!! His expression is perfect!

@dekreel *shyly raises hand* I will draw your character. I may not be an artist, but if there’s one thing I love to draw, it’s steampunk people. 😉 In return, would you like to draw Abilene, the MC from a…[Read more]

@sleepwalkingmk Oh, I didn’t notice where you said you’d “had bad experiences with some of them.”  So I just thought I’d let you know that though I haven’t watched any recently made westerns, and the only modern romance ones I’ve seen are a couple badly made Hallmark movies, I can tell you for a fact that the sci-fi genre is a very different…[Read more]

@dekreel You asked for more updates?  Well, this is the best I could do on short notice:
