Thanks! I forgot about Frank Peritti!! I need to read his books.

I’m having a similar problem. I love my projects but I flit from one to the next and no real progress gets made, so I don’t know how much help I’ll be. As far as clean Christian books go, I generally read classics and MG. I avoid YA and adult unless recommended by people I trust or written in the olden days. If you want…[Read more]

Ah yes, a classic. XD I like lemon yoghurt pancakes.

I think I could carry 8 pigeons. 4 down my shirt, one in each pocket, and one in each hand. But yeah, the poop would be a problem.

I would have fire for the drama.

There are a lot. Right now it would be Paris from the Iliad. He is insufferable.

I suppose that is a legitimate reason.…[Read more]

Greetings! I have not seen Dune the movie but I just finished the book and it was incredible. I love the concept of the sandworms. I too have converted from an essay hater to an essay lover. I’m working on a senior thesis right now and it’s a lot of fun. I’m The Ducktator! I’m a fantasy writer, and I also enjoy reading, dancing, history,…[Read more]

@eliasg

YES! I also love the guy who married  Valentine de Villefort! What is his name?! Aha! Maximilien Morrel! He was by far my favorite. I also really liked how the book showed justice and revenge and the difference between them.

That was a bit of a long response but this is the film thoughts and reviews topic, haha. @eliasg I would love to hear your thoughts!

@eliasg

Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey.

I wrote out a detailed response to this, but my post didn’t go through. 😒 So I’ll try again.

I think it’s a flawed adaptation but a quality modern film. It is very stylistically “Christopher Nolan” which is exactly why it is flawed yet still quality.

As an adaptation, it gets several things wrong – the b…[Read more]

I haven’t seen it, but I’m reading the book this year for school. How accurate is the movie?

@eliasg

I have no idea who either of those people are but chocolate is phenomenal.

@eliasg

Ah! I love The Count of Monté Christo!

I’ve met very few people who stuck it out to the end. That book is long for sure.

Do you have a favorite character from it?

@eliasg

HEYYYYYY. I’M STELLY. THE BEAN. NOICE TO MEET YA. 😎

Ugggghhhhhh. I have… also never finished something. I just kinda finish the first draft and decide I’m good. It’s good. One day I’ll commit and make the coolest thing ever.

FOLLOWED BY YOUR SCREENPLAY, THAT’S COOL. IIII… don’t know much about it, which I really should, considering I w…[Read more]

Hello and welcome to KP!

Essays… I have a deep love-hate relationship with them. I love exploring complex topics in an approachable way, but I also dread the search for sources. Which is ironic considering I would gladly look through old books for any other reason.

I’ve read Lord of the Rings, but none of the others, although many of…[Read more]

Welcome to Kingdom Pen! I’m a writer of middle-grade fiction and poetry, a full-time university student, a historical clothing/culture/language nerd, and a hand-crafting enthusiast.

Finishing stuff is hard. I think that’s easy to forget sometimes, but it’s no less true.

As far as screenplays go, closest I’ve gotten was a stage play, so…[Read more]
