I love the fire theme. Can’t tell if she’s a villain or an mc with a lot of character growth to go through

@quicksilverwyvern

That’s so funny! I actually thought of trying to combine fire and ice but couldn’t come up with a viable way….

I was thinking maybe it could be like fire trapped inside the ice or something, but the half-and-half idea is good too! Kind of reminds me of a magnet, and how sometimes they’re made with one blue side and one red

@rae

I’m mostly going for the evil-beauty and going against nature vibes—I’m not too attached to the ice, and I guess it doesn’t even have to be beautiful, just something that’s intrinsically desirable, whether because it’s pretty, or it looks expensive, etc.

I’d love to hear the flower idea!

1. What do you prefer to be called? C.L. Speck, C.L, Speck, or something else?

C.L. Speck, or clspeck, or any combination that’s easy to remember/type out! I’ve just always liked that my initials happened to be the same as C.S. Lewis’! 😀

2. What is your favorite vibe for a book to be? Like, the general feeling the envir…

@freed_and_redeemed

Thanks! I’ve worked on this current WIP for years now, so it’s changed quite a bit, but I’m really happy with how it has developed!

What would you say are your favorite theme(s) in your story?

Hmm for the first book of the series I’m working on, I think my favorite themes would be:

1. Don’t let your hopes/ima…[Read more]

No! Horace is the best!!!!

Aww yeah, he’s pretty great! A really interesting mix of warrior and Cinnamon Roll! (I love a good Cinnamon Roll character <3 )

Thanks so much! I think I got it now 😀

@theducktator

Whoa. She has an intense drive. I feel sorry for her but am concerned about what she’s up to. Is she a main character?

@rae

I also do artwork myself, but its traditional.

Nice! I painted my own pfp, and I do tend to do more traditional art, but I’m trying to get into more animated-style artwork, because it takes way less time than realistic art, at least for me :’(

Gabriel

Gabriel pulled his arms closer to himself, as if trying to make himself smaller. “I was average in height for my village, but I was scrawny when I was younger. I only started building much strength by 12 or 13. Why?”

@rae

To all of probably only 1-2 people who get this reference, she’s someone’s little Bwerdie.

Ahhhh.

Well now I want Enid, Isabeau, AND Lu to be here. And I can’t do that. Hm.

@c-l-speck Hi, and welcome to KP! 👋🏻

Your WIP sounds very intriguing👀 I love the thought behind your book. What would you say are your favorite theme(s) in your story?

Oh, and I should introduce myself…hi, I’m Freedom, a Child of God first and foremost, writer, reader, indie author, history buff (WW2 specifically), MCU fan, aspiring a…[Read more]

Awww, Mothy…

@quarterstaffgirl Hi and welcome to KP! 👋🏻💜

Quarterstaffs are such an underrated weapon choice, and it’s so cool that you use one. What would you say is the hardest (or easiest) part of using one?

Lucille

Lucy was not sure if the strong inside part was all true. But people kept telling her those things, so she was not going to argue. Besides, hopefully she would be good at everything when she grew to full size. “Mr. Zandi — he’s my next-door neighbor — he says I remind him of a war general he met when he was a b…[Read more]

@galaxartian Hi Galaxartian, welcome to KP! 👋🏻

Ooh, fantasy. 👀 The themes you explore in your writing sound very interesting: what led you to tackling those themes in your writing?

Ahem…I should probably introduce myself. I’m Freedom, child of God first and foremost, writer of primarily historical fiction and no-magic fantasy, indie author,…[Read more]

@liberty I’m taking part in JWM again this year 🫶🏻

@rae

is, I can’t think of a single person who actually knows him who thinks he’s weak in anything except social and academic understanding.

I’d guess that’s why. He’s not socially or academically knowledgeable. Anyone lacking in those skills would at least feel unintelligent, even if that isn’t the case.

@ellette-giselle Ahhh this is so exciting🫶🏻🤭

I’m not very active on here anymore, but hello everyone new (and old)👋🏻

@koshka @loopylin

Moth

They all took seats at dark mahogany desks. Moth settled down, softly twiddling his fingers. Sitting down with a master of knowledge always opened his eyes to something new. He had never learned in a place like this before.

The professor — a late middle-aged gentleman — strode to the standing backboard. His sil…[Read more]

I’m considering adding a character in here to flesh her out.

To all of probably only 1-2 people who get this reference, she’s someone’s little Bwerdie.
