Hi! I don’t think we’ve met yet. I’m Lydia. 🙂 Welcome (very belatedly) to the KP forum! As a side note, I saw you’re a fan of J.A.’s Persuasion, and I am, too! XD I think it’s my favorite J.A. book. 😀

Agh, WFR sounds FANTASTIC!!! I’m already rooting for Russel and Eliza. XD
Well, my WIPs are progressing minimally at the moment. However, my brain is still cooking up and mulling over scenes for my Biblical fiction series (And side books). And Simon (the Zealot). AH, I LOVE HIM SO MUCH. XD (Joining @elfwing in evil author…[Read more]

Lydia S. replied to the topic My Series Keeps Growing! in the forum Fantasy 4 years, 3 months ago
Ah, yes, the multiplying storyline issue. I have dealt with this before, but not in an extreme form. (I’m not sure if that’s a good thing or a bad thing, honestly. lol) For my fantasy WIP, I started with a trilogy (and it might have even been meant to be a stand-alone, originally… I can’t remember). Then, the writer’s brain went…[Read more]

Lydia S. replied to the topic Characteristic Lines in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 3 months ago
No kidding! They really do put up with quite a bit… XD
Hmmm… I’m not sure! Helmer’s death didn’t come as a surprise for me. *cough* I may or may not have skimmed through the ending the moment I got the book in my hands to see if he was there… And when he wasn’t, I may or may not have then skimmed through the rest of the…[Read more]

Trahia the Minstrel replied to the topic Any Questions About Weapons or Battle in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 3 months ago
I definitely wasn’t bored! I love hearing about that kind of thing. If it helps, my fight scene is in a wedding hall with lots of pillars and rather in the roof. It’s single combat. The girl is agile, fit, and well-trained in knife fighting; and the boy is also fit, but can’t move as fast because he’s not as good at acrobatics and athleti…[Read more]

Thanks! I don’t think we’ve met before, but I really love your cover picture. That’s such a cute art style!

Since you’re offering …😁😉
How could a teenage girl with an abundance of knives beat a teenage boy with a sword and shield? This is important for a climax of mine, but I want it to be realistic.
Also, do you watch Shadiversity? The comment about the lightsabers made me wonder …

Elfwing replied to the topic Have you ever considered writing under a pseudonym, and why or why not? in the forum Topic of the Week 4 years, 3 months ago
@kathleenramm i have considered it but I guess i feel fake using it. no offense to those who use them! they’re super cool.also i havent had much luck with them; very embarrassingly, the few i HAVE thought of I’ve thought of are used by authors of books i wouldn’t touch with a ten foot pole XD
so i abbreviated my real name; I. L. Tanis. its weird…[Read more]

Trahia the Minstrel replied to the topic Calling everyone but particularly twins, triplets, and brothers (or sisters)! in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 3 months ago
That’s amazing. You sound like both my older brothers😂 My closest brother always used to play sword fights with me, and I even got him to help me mock out a fight scene for my book a few weeks ago …
I’ve never been a twin or a brother, but I’ve had two older brothers, an older sister, and a younger sister. However, my brother…[Read more]

Elfwing replied to the topic I'm giving you permission to rant about your WIP in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 3 months ago
it is, isn’t it? writing about characters with anger problems has made me more aware of my temper. selfish ones make me see my own flaws. My dad has always said, what irritates us about others is usually our greatest weakness or something we fear becoming, which then in trying so hard to avoid we do ourselves.
Aw thanks! yeah im…[Read more]

@annabelle bahahaha meme has been made with slight alterations XDD

hahaha well its a series that extends over like, 50/60ish years, and then i have individual stories for the charries that have been alive for centuries, so *shrugs * for every book, at least 1 of the more important characters dies XD most of them are heartbreakers, so

Trahia the Minstrel replied to the topic Cover Art Sharing Space/Critique in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 3 months ago
So…. Just to clarify, you and your twin can’t feel when the other is pain? Cause I’ve heard of that being able to happen. (The twins in one of my WIP are identical, boy-boy, and the twins in the other WIP are fraternal boy-girl. Did I mention I have a thing for writing multiple birth characters?😅)
But, when it comes to twins, can you f…[Read more]

I know exactly what you mean. My current WIP, The Prince of WalfKlau(working title) was originally intended to be my first-ever standalone. Ha.
Ha.
Ha.😂
I quickly realised I’d never be able to tell such an epic story in one book, and it quickly turned into a trilogy in my mind. I then wrote 94 chapters — yes, you read that rig…[Read more]

Trahia the Minstrel replied to the topic Put Your Topic of the Week Ideas HERE! in the forum Topic of the Week 4 years, 3 months ago
I think a cool topic of the week would be “What is your favourite character type/character relationship type?” Like the ‘Mentor’ or the ‘Young Knight’ or the ‘Brother-brother duo, etc. Things like that. In my WIP, I have a ‘tactician,’ a ‘minstrel,’ a ‘peasant-raised prince,’ a ‘usurper,’ a ‘best-friend duo,’ a ‘pair of…[Read more]

@annabelle well everyone has different genres they do best. I can’t write much besides fantasy novels that are a gazillion pages in rough draft, and little allegorical short stories lol.
Hahah yeah we are evil though, you have to be if you’re gonna write sometimes. I’m so cruel,

@annabelle ooo cool! mwahahahah that’ll be interesting… I have twins in my story in last couple books, and i close to kill kill them both a few times while theyre on opposite sides of the world.
