@epicaddie2 *blinks* Wow.

@epicaddie2 I’m a king. I’m capricious.

@itisastarrynight Sounds fun–how far along in it are you? 🙂

@Dekreel Oh, that’s @Dragon-Snapper‘s deal. She’s a mightily terrifying dragon, and if you cross her, she will melt your pencil or your phone or your chair or some other deeply personal item.

Moral of the Story: Don’t cross the kid.

Oh, yes! Tags!

@Emily Perks of being what I call “One of the Veterans”. 😉

@notawriter Welcome to the bestistest place on the internet.

Have you read The Count Of Monte Cristo? The Mistborn trillogy? Crime and Punishment? Cry The Beloved Country?

A favorite verse? Aaah! *beads of cold sweat* Well, if I had to pick, I’d probably go with. 2 Corinthians 5:14-15 “For the love of Christ controls us, since we have concluded…[Read more]

@Winter-Rose The Character and Emotion Thesauruses by Angela Ackerman and Becca Puglisi are some of my favorite books ever, but they’re not really “writing” books in the traditional sense of the word. Everything else I’ve read is K.M. Weiland.

Hey, @NotAWriter , welcome to KP! I have a profound respect for your kind; sometimes, I think they know more about storytelling than the actual authors do. You’re an artist, eh? We have a few of those hanging around here, myself included. What kind of stuff do you like to draw?

@Shannon I remember when I first wrote my introduction post a year ago. I’m pretty sure that within half an hour, it already had eight replies. It was nerve-wracking. XD

@mariposa

No, 150 is not too audacious. It’s not easy, but it’s certainly manageable. You could even aim higher if you wanted to push yourself.

Fyi, if you’re going to market yourself on Pinterest, you’ll have to create a business account. (it’s free and the only major difference from a normal account is that it allows you to run paid ads if you…[Read more]

@winter-rose The KP resource library has a list of good writing books I would check out.

As for marketing books, I’d recommend Your First 10,000 Readers and The Book Launch Blueprint by Tim Grahl. I think those are probably the most solid marketing books I’ve read. I remember How To Market A Book by Joanna Pen having some good ideas too. You may…[Read more]

@itisastarrynight Welcome to the site! Glad you found us. 🙂 What’s the premise of your graphic novel?

@lifeofkatie Yep–no problem. 🙂 I figured as much!

@Dekreel We are a very rare and intriguing species. For instance, no discussion ever stays on topic. Someone’s talking about the thematic contrast of light vs. dark? Well that’s great, but Snapper and I are going to talk about doorknobs, and Emma will eventually pop in and we’ll all end up crying about the ending of Rogue One.

Impromptu ice cream…[Read more]

@Dragon-Snapper *strides forth* From now on, consider me a permanent beta-reader for you. *firm nod*

(Hey, would it be possible to email me through my blog contact page? If not, I’ll do the KP email thing, but I have… *pitiful sniff* emailer anxiety and never know how to phrase this sort of thing. Here be the link.…[Read more]

@epicaddie2 While the perfectionist in me is wrestling with the fact that my crown should be falling off, I have to say this is really hilarious.

@itisastarrynight Oooh. A graphic novel! That’s so cool.

Welcome to the community. 😀

Welcome to the site, @foreverme Glad you found us. 🙂 What’s the premise of your current work-in-progress?
