@jane-maree @seekjustice The Reckoners!

*Stan does a happy flail*

I didn’t even think of those as sci-fi, I always considered those superhero-action (if that’s even a real genre. It’s not.) XD

I love those, books, though. I hope someday Brandon writes one more book with David in it, although I don’t think he’s planning on lengthening that…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 aaah yes yes my sister read Scythe and O-O it sounds amazing. I haven’t gotten around to reading it but I 10000% plan to.

To whom it may concern…I recently finished a book in two hours–something I haven’t done since I was little. It was good, really good. I’m not gonna say anything about it, except that if you’re looking for a book with a great plot and plot twists and awesome characters…read Scythe, by Neil Schusterman.

@radically-surrendered  Ohhhh, I LOVE writing to TONS of music. lesse…

• Fresh Aire (electronic music, most of it is very good)
• You, Me & Gravity (Planet Coaster soundtrack. EXCELLENT)
• Fellowship of the Ring soundtrack (your basic LOTR music)
• Touch the Strings by Mark McCain (SO underrated!!)
• Various classical music (especially for…

@SeekJustice THE RECKONERS AAAAHHHH *so much flailing*

@Jenwriter17 yessss for sci fi. I definitely also vouch for The Reckoners series (Brandon Sanderson) and also The lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer.

@Dekreel *punches you in the shoulder* GO FOR IT!

@warrioroftherealm I feel like they are, because they pop up over and over again. They’re a trope, but they aren’t an obnoxious one. You can do so many things to change them up and make them unique, that it becomes interesting again.

But yeah, just straight-up ‘this hero controls fire, this one ice’ is somewhat boring. There’s a seed of epicness…[Read more]

@radically-surrendered  Welp, I’m signing off here. I edited the first part of the KPA (at least I think it’s the first part… *scratches head* *grimaces*) It was great to see you!

@radically-surrendered  … Just how many P&P movies are there?! It’s confusing me! XD

What’s your favorite TobyMac song? Mine is “Undeniable.” There was one time when that song made me cry. It’s SO good! X’)

You know what’s funny about TobyMac? Every time he publishes an album, it’s better than the last one. His first solo album, Momentum,…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 Definitely Out of the Silent Planet (C.S. Lewis)! And if you want something in the YA genre as well, there’s the Girl Who Could See (Kara Swanson) and Replication (Jill Williamson)

@radically-surrendered  I dunno, I just kind of picked it up *shrug*

TobyMac! *high five* He my favorite artist next to Hollyn and Swtchfoot!

I get Veggie Tales songs stuck in my head. It’s really annoying XP

Do you like soundtracks? My favorite soundtrack is called You, Me & Gravity. It’s for the new game Planet Coaster (which is a LOT like…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 Sci-fi…. A Wrinkle in Time is great, along with Out of the Silent Planet by C.S. Lewis, and The Time Machine by H.G. Wells… also, I can’t forget this one: From the Earth to the Moon, by Jules Verne. Not really a futuristic sci-fi, more like a historical sci-fi, but it is really hilarious, and an amazing story about guns and space…[Read more]

@radically-surrendered  *unsure of what to say* Um… You’re welcome! 😀

So I have heard rumors that you like music. I like it, too! What’s your favorite genre? Song? Instrument?

I like instrumental a LOT, and I have no idea what my favorite song is. My favorite LYRICAL song is “Don’t Stop Believing” by Journey. And my two favorite instruments…[Read more]

@radically-surrendered  Hello!! Glad you could join me! 😉

I’m excited about your new blog! I have it bookmarked

@jenwriter17 Oh, books….

Um………………………….

I just looked at my bookshelf and realized that besides Artemis Fowl, I don’t have a single sci-fi book on my shelf. Maybe that’s why I like writing it. I don’t have any……

Sorry. 🙁

@jenwriter17  The only sci-fi I’ve read is A Wrinkle in Time, and it’s really good! I would highly recommend it 🙂

@warrioroftherealm Haven’t been on here for a while (thanks college), but I decided to give my two cents.

Yeah, elemental powers may seem pretty cliche at first glance. But there are many amazing stories that use potentially “cliched” premises as starting points. Cliche is usually a relative term. For example, revenge plots and the lovable…[Read more]

@epicaddie2 You don’t have to do this, but if you want to write a really in-depth historical fiction story, I’ve read that you don’t want to just read about the time period, but you want to read in the time period. Read the books that were famous at the time, preserved letters from the time period, newspaper articles, etc.

I’m seeing what I can do with the KPA if anyone wants to join. Unless you’re in school…
