I know I was the one asking you, but this is my reason for holding backstories back too. This is it. My characters have those quirks that are connected to their past, but if I revealed the past, the cat’s out of the bag and it feels almost taboo.

In conclusion, my apologies for tempting you to reveal secrets. I shall always be on the…[Read more]

This isn’t a rant. I just didn’t know where to post this. But I found a thing on Pinterest that I think explains exactly why I don’t like talking about my character’s backstories:

(not that all my characters have sad backstories. I’m actually a pretty nice author by comparison to most lol)

@keilah-h

Sorry if she’s acting odd. I’m still trying to figure out how to write her accurately.

Felicity

“Emu. Ee-mu.” Felicity slowly sounded the strange word out to herself. She laughed.

“Emus, bird people, lizard people, trolls, disappearing boyfriends… Heh. This is insane.” She held her head in her hands, and backed away from the dead…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Brea’s aesthetic is adorable and her faceclaim has such a stubborn expression.

Does Fel need protection?

In her mind, it’s everyone else who needs protection.

@whalekeeper

I think I’m on the same page as you on that topic, though I’m most likely to just follow where everyone else goes. If everyone were to migrate to the new  website while kp was working still, I’d go to the new website too. But I doubt that will happen. Do we even have enough active people for there to even be a risk of people…[Read more]

Does Fel need protection? I sense she needs protection from something.

@loopylin

Oooh. Victorian steampunk with a bit of goth, as I pictured. Brea’s aesthetic is adorable and her faceclaim has such a stubborn expression. I want to know what the quotes on Fel’s board are about.

@linus-smallprint @everyone

Definitely interested in updates.

There’s still one thing nagging me about this, since R.M. Archer commented. (And I’m thankful to her for prompting this thought.) How do we want to treat this website in relationship to the original KP community? I think we need to be cautious about this because communities have…[Read more]

@rae Glad things are going okay.

I think you’ve done pretty good. Like you said, you’re probably better off just doing what you’re currently doing rather than yapping all over the site.

@linus-smallprint

I’d love to help you with this project, but I don’t really have any strengths that someone already on the team doesn’t. I could be a moderator but I’d most likely be either too lenient or too strict; web designing is not my strong point, as I know virtually nothing of coding and the like; and on top of it all, my time on screens…[Read more]

@r-m-archer

Thank you for your concern. As others have already told you, we have looked into it already. But I am still glad you brought it up. If you have any other questions/concerns, please let me know.

@ellette-giselle

I took a look at the website. Overall it looks good. Maybe, if I have enough time, I may give you more feedback, but there are a few things I noticed.

Areas to improve:

1.  The logo needs to be refined. It’s a fine picture, but as a logo it looks messy, and the small black text is hard to read on the grey clouds. A good way to…

@ellette-giselle @loopylin @esther-c (@whalekeeper, tagging you as well because I have a feeling you want to stay in the loop.)

Thank you to all three of you for volunteering. Seems like we have different strengths among us, which is a good thing and will help us cover different areas of the site.

I don’t think I am going to proceed with making…[Read more]

@liberty

Elizabeth. The profile photo is currently a grey tabby cat, and my bio mentions illustrating and marzipan. I’m afraid I haven’t made an into post yet… *covers face and laughs nervously* I’ll go do that. XD Is yours the same as here?

That’s great to hear! I’m glad I signed up too.

Yes, I’m in college, lol. Currently pursuing my…[Read more]

@rae

Oh wait…I think I’ve heard you mentioned Nahim before. Oh yes…I can totally understand why it feels very special to you! No problem. Don’t feel pressured to reply back/be super active on JWM.

Also, small update on the Unvale situation. The person I had the interaction with posted this on her profile afterwards on her DNI list:

@RaE16 (purposefully trying to make me look bad by twisting what i had done to something else)

This apparently violated the Unvale rules about hate speech, so she was “investigated” as the person from Unvale…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings

Yeah.

I think many lgbtq people gravitate towards art because I know many of them are mentally unstable, and suffer from depression and other things, and as I think we all know, art is an outlit for that.

I’m currently experiencing a boom in my art. Just today I’ve done multiple sketches and linework, which is highly…[Read more]

Also a version without the super dramatic quotes :]

@whalekeeper @elishavet-pidyon

And a new one for Felicity because last time I made one for her, she was a completely different person from a completely different world.
