‘kay.

…why is your signature just turtle emojis?

@that_writer_girl_99 Sure. That’d be great.

Still need people on this? @daeus

I should probably tag at least some people @sam-kowal @dekreel @livgiordano @catwing

@kate-flournoy Have at it. 😀

@warrioroftherealm Try Rora for historical fiction. It’s a tale of a Waldensian resistance fighter and it has some good political intrigue in it.

@dekreel I love the Canterbury Tales. I studied a number of the tales in college and have taught different stories from it in my English classes. I do need to second @sleepwalkingmk, though, and say that you need to be careful about which you read since some are pretty raunchy. I’d be happy to give you recommendations on which to read or which to…[Read more]

@sam-kowal That synopsis is great. 😀  Where can I read this book? 😛

I’ve taken to just sharing my story premise.

“Oh, my book? It’s about these guys who are trying to steal this thing from the dark lord before he figures out it has the power to release him from his captivity.”

Never mind that description lacks any life whatsoever. They d…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper There are lots of good takes on this here. I agree with them. I’ll just post two other ideas.

1. Take a break, but not from your book. Take a break just to dream about your book. Imagine yourself in scenes. Dream about backstory you’ve never thought of. Just dream.

2. I think writing isn’t always so much about our books as it is…[Read more]

@epicaddie2 That is totally relatable.

I’ll be remembering to pray for you, because this is very similar to what I face, only it’s not a loneliness issue but still a faith issue.

If I could say two things to encourage you, first of all, “In everything give thanks.” Boy, this helps. I think we feel depressed because we feel weak. In thankfulness,…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper I think I recognize the symptoms of a tired creative 😉 Meaning, your mind is doesn’t have the energy for writing, which makes cranking out the words and getting connected to the story REALLY hard.

So…I’d say step away for a little bit if you can. Go do something else creative that you love, like music or drawing. Or just sit…[Read more]

Okay, I redid it. Here is the entire script:

I wasn’t tagged in this, and I’m really not the best person to give advice on this because I struggle with it all the time, so…best of luck to you.

I don’t believe I’ve ever officially said hi to you… so, hi @jenwriter17

@valtmy Ah; nice. Now that you mention it, I did see the first two(?) seasons of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure. Not familiar with the others but may need to check them out when I have time!

Hey there @valtmy! Welcome to KP!

Half of this thread is everyone discussing their favorite anime and I’m in love…

I don’t watch much anime, mostly cause I don’t know any good ones. Any favorites?

Hey @valtmy! Welcome to the forum. 🙂 What animes do you watch? I haven’t watched much, but really like Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood & Death Note (the original, not the Netflix travesty).

@gh24682468999 Yes, it does! Hmm, I will check it out after I get off work… Thanks for the comments and encouragement. =)

@valtmy You’re a world traveler! That’s cool. 😀 What were you studying in London?

What’s the story behind your username?
