@raevynstar He sounds good to me. 😀 The one thing I would point out is that sometimes writers will make these types of characters mopey. It’s fine for characters to be sorrowful and introspective, but they must have a strong goal they are pursuing at the same time, or it will be hard to root for them.

@dragon-snapper That’s right. You got it.

@raevynstar Hi Raevyn. Welcome to the bestistest place on the internet.

It’s always cool to meet other poets out there. You’ll have to share one of your pomes with us sometime.

Btw, do you know what your personality type is?

@xonos-darkgrate Yep, the narrative voice is sweet.

@jess-penrose I had no idea people raved about my books. I’ll have to write more of them. lol

@kate-flournoy Quite magnanimous of you. *bows low*

@emma-flournoy Kate will get an email when the book is launched. You can upload it then.

@salome01w4g I’m going to defer to @rolena-hatfield on that issue, since I believe she and Daeus have thought more about what sorts of discussions are allowed on the forum than I have. 🙂

One thing I will mention for both you and others’ benefit, tho, is that @the-real-kapeefer is definitely trolling you all on this (as with most things he’s…[Read more]

What’s the point of the game? @xonos-darkgrate

@kballen Because you wouldn’t dare not like chocolate. 😉

Myers Briggs is an excellent theory on personality types that divides people into 16 different archetypes and defines how their brain works and how they generally act. You can take a free test to determine your type here: https://www.16personalities.com

What even is Aetherlight, anyway? @aislinn-mollisong @xonos-darkgrate

Hi @kballen! You’ve found the Kingdom of Pen. We’ll have to give you a cloak and a bar of chocolate.

Btw, do you happen to know your Myers Briggs type?

Welcome to the site @kballen! Glad you found us through YWW. 🙂 We love the work that Brett and Jaquelle are doing over there. Are you working on writing any stories currently? If so, what’s the story premise?

Fair enough. In my own defense, I do read the Bible, I’ve just chosen to guard my own heart against the “evil” in the Harry Potter books and enjoy it as a story instead. That’s how it was meant to be taken, after all.

@xonos-darkgrate

Oh, definitely Percy. @epicaddie2 His character is just…awesome. That’s all there is to it. Percy Jackson is a great character.

Yep, that’s exactly what she means. @xonos-darkgrate

It’s funny you mention the argument behind not reading Harry Potter, because this is where my mother stood, up until the moment when I told her that I felt I was strong enough in my faith to not be effected in any way by reading about such witchcraft and magic. It took several conversations,…[Read more]

@emma-flournoy It hasn’t changed very much. Mostly it’s just been clearing up confusing parts and improving the prose.

@emma-flournoy If you want to leave a review based on the version you got, that is fine. However, if you feel that you should read the most recent version first, then you can go ahead and sign up using the first link.

HA! Yes, that’s accurate.

Have you read the second series? The Lost Hero, Son of Neptune, Mark of Athena, House of Hades, and Blood of Olympus? That’s my favorite series. I love it very muchly.

Funny story: I was so excited when I got the House of Hades that when I took it out of the box, the first thing I did was go outside and spin in…[Read more]

*chokes* Oh, dear. Not the Percy Jackson movies…my heart…ouch. Those movies represent the first time in my life in which I was disappointed by a movie adaption. I was broken. @epicaddie2

@epicaddie2 I’m fairly certain that if you had to, you could go your entire life without seeing/reading Twilight. Seriously. It isn’t worth it. But the Hunger Games books are good, and the movies keep to the book-plot pretty well. I’d recommend the Hunger Games for sure.

I read all of the Twilight books. Only the second and fourth ones were really worth reading, though, and even they made me cringe. That being said, I have no interest in seeing the movies. I’d rather spend my time writing. *grins*

Yeah! The Hunger Games were actually pretty good. I think Catching Fire was my favorite book overall, just because it…[Read more]
