@bella-d We’ll ignore that I’m a little late to the party.

Welcome to Kingdom Pen! Ummm… question that no one has thought of yet.

Aha! Do you like mushrooms?

*stalks this topic*

@bella-d Hi Bella! Welcome, welcome 😀 Are you in YWW? If so, I’m Adora from YWWC.

@daeus Go England!

@that_writer_girl_99 If you research the Battle of Agincourt, I think. Or just the One Hundred Years War you’re likely to stumble across mentions of longbowmen prowess.

I think it is worth mentioning the crossbow as an alternative to the bow. I don’t know how much you no about them so. Rather than arrows they use short bolts.…[Read more]

@dekreel *salutes* Glad to be of service, m’lady. I totally know the feeling.

(And I totally know the feeling of “WHY ISN’T THIS STUPID OUTLINE DONE YET?”. My utmost condolences.)

I shall ponder plot-lines and return in due time with my findings.

@ethryndal  You know, seeing your post just made me realize that I don’t have to write like everyone else, that I can go with my own style and structure. I can’t believe I didn’t realize that until now. *bops forehead* So thank you for saving me!

I am just SO TIRED of over-planning! I just wanna WRITE!

I’ll see what I can do! *nervous…[Read more]

@dekreel Hey, don’t feel bad about planning ahead. Just because some of the other KP literature has been extremely random and spontaneous doesn’t mean yours has to be. Let it flow, do what you want, and it will be unique. I, for one, think it would be kinda interesting to see us doing something (semi) rational. Semi-rational for us, at least.…[Read more]

@bella-d Hey welcome! Glad to see new faces on the forum! How did you hear about Kingdom Pen?

A lot of you have been asking how the KPA is going

Well…

So yeah, that’s how it’s going… *gloomy sigh*

Guys, I am SO sorry this is taking forever! I realized from seeing how other people have written Kapeefer literature that I have over-planned mine. Besides, I have a HUGE plot hole (STILL! grrrrr) So I’m going to set down my current…[Read more]

@jenwriter17  *scratches chin* *grimaces (these claws, ya know)*

Hmmm…

I like all of them… I’m sort of leaning on #2, the Christian contemporary. It sounds powerful. But I also really like #3 because it just fascinates me how Christianity spreads even in places like that. #4 would make a good short story 🙂

Yeah, #3 🙂

@Cloudy At this very moment I’m a little busy, but sometime in the next week or so I’d be happy to look over your story. How in-depth would you want me to go? I do freelance editing so I can do anything from a theme-characters-plot sort of perspective or go more into the finer details of wording and prose and grammar. It all depends on how…[Read more]

@Radically-surrendered basically if it’s a book about musical instruments being epic I’ll read it. XD

@bella-d  Oh, yeah, the rank under your name depends on how many times you’ve posted.

Once you have made…

If you had not tagged me and I’d missed the opportunity you’d have been in serious trouble.

@Daeus yes!

@kate-flournoy Just tagging you because you’re normally into this. If you want to do it, I’ll get you your own doc.

@that_writer_girl_99 Research English longbowmen. They were the best of the best and traditional bowmanship was a bit different than today. Like English bowmen sometimes used 100lb draw bows, which just makes us all look like epic wimps basically.

@mnvalentine  You like Les Mis? AWESOME! I like it, too! Although I’m only halfway through the book so far. I’m really enjoying it 😉

@emma-flournoy, I found another Les Mis fan for you! ;-P

@itisastarrynight *looks in awe of raspberry sunshine*

@inklingforchrist Good question. I honestly don’t know. Every time I start a novel, it’s a big fear of mine that it’s not going to be very long at all. But even if your novels are short, it’s okay. My only suggestion for making books longer is adding in more conflict between characters and…[Read more]

@aislinn-mollisong 😀 Now, you just need a nice heavy electronic beat to go along with a robot singing XD

Those are actually really neat, though. (Once you disregard the extra text XD) I love when stories have in-world songs and lore, it makes them feel much more rich and solid. And having them as chapter headings is a really good idea 😀
