Greetings and welcome to the Kingdom of Pen!

Books, good food, medieval culture, and a cozy tavern/inn? All necessary and fabulous. *enthusiastic nods* Your WIP/worldbuilding sounds fascinating already.

Also art! Graphite and watercolor are lovely! As are acrylics and digital, you just definetely are beyond me there lol. I’d love to…[Read more]

@koshka

Sure why not?! I’m in!

@whalekeeper @koshka

Thanks for the advice! I have spent the past five years learning as much as possible about plot structure. I’ve tried (among other things) the snowflake method, the 3-act story structure, numerous authors’ plotting structures, and pantsing. Sarra Cannon has been a recent follow for me, but her methods all use color coding and…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

How would you describe House’s personality? 😛

House is normally pretty fun-loving and friendly. Right now it is depressed and angry (think stereotypical teenage angst type thing) which leads to it’s lashing out towards the other characters. One morning, for example, my characters woke up to find the kitchen totally flooded o…[Read more]

@lillian

Hello! Ryuu looks/sounds like a great character. He will fit here perfectly.

I don’t know if you found the map of the place, but you are free to put him with the other groups or make up a room/class/instructor as you like!

@whalekeeper

Lore! Yes… Ok…

*brain imediately blanks*

Aha! I have the RP aesthetic. I shall post it again so the newbies don’t have to chase it down in the thread history. (although I do recomend reading back. It’s entertaining stuff.)

@bilbo-baggins

1. I LIKE TO READ. AND RUN. AND PLAY PIANO. NOT AT THE SAME TIME.

What, you don’t do it at the same time? Sounds like a skill issue to me. (jk)

Now I expect you to answer all of these question as well.

1. Reading, drawing, 3D modelling, and videogames!

2. YES (my favorite is Vantage, which is like if an open-world videogame was…[Read more]

@liskaboyce

Whaley’s response is lovely and says quite what I was going to, so I’ll only add:

Ugh. Yes, there are so many different styles of plotting that it gets hard to find one that will work for you. I’ve tried several and have eventually ended up with one that’s a sort of mix between three-act and beats, but using bullet points.

okay that…[Read more]

Guys, I have to write little informative summaries of the roleplays and post them on their respective topics. Because otherwise, we have chaos on our hands. I will do that when I have time.

@koshka

“Alcarna, Firefly. Well done.”

Yaayyy! Rare Ari smile.

I will post a continuation of the story when I get home.

@liskaboyce

 I have yet to hit 20k in a first draft, so that is goal #1. Then beyond that, yes I am trying to hit 50k. But if I manage to hit 20-25k it’s a win in my book!

Oh yeah, 20k is always the first goal. And some of my projects never make it past that point, I’ll admit.

Ooh, Kingdom Pen should do a NaNoWriMo spinoff forum for anyone in…

Hello Lillian!

(Takes a deep breath to introduce myself for the third or fourth time in the last 24 hours)

I am Whaley. I am a crazy creative who likes world-building, plotting secretive lore, history, antique-collecting, drawing, listening to music, and taking care of many pets. A fun fact about me is that my great-grandparents were associated…[Read more]

*Hides behind textbooks*

Oops, I missed this.

Ari

A small smile tugged one side of his mouth higher than the other. No magiked arrows this time–just a nearly perfect shot.

“Alcarna, Firefly. Well done.”

Froilán had taken a week to even hit the target. But then, the boy had barely been strong enough to draw the bow.

@koshka

Naturally. All in the name of research. *grins thinking of all the things that could be considered “research”* So I could visit Middle-Earth for at least a century or so for research then, lol 🙂

Ryuu is very charming and loves to spar in the training rings.

Sparring is a beloved activity here. :-p There are sparring mats inside the gym and pells for dummy practice right outside the gym.

@ellette-giselle

Thank you so much!!! I’ll have to check it out!!

@lillian

That’s awesome!!! I am very similar. I have been writing for as long as I could remember. Or making fantasy maps 🙂 But about 5 years ago I decided to get serious with my writing. So I have also been writing for 5+ years!

So I’m going to ask this but no worries if you don’t have an answer! What is your highest word count on a single project?

@lillian

Awesome!! Nice to see a new face in the academy! 😄

If you would like some recommendations for where to place him – where the people are – Beth recently added a shapeshifter character who crashed through a window into the gym building. You could place your character there, if you like.

Or put him wherever! The main academy building is…[Read more]

@lillian

Ryuu sounds like he’ll fit in just fine around here. XD Go ahead and pick a place around the school to drop him in, and we’ll see who’s around to interact!
