Coming from someone who has read quite a few “over the top” beginnings to novels, this is great!

If you’re worried that it’s too over-dramatic, just make sure what happens next fully follows through with the drama you’re alluding to.

@gracie-j

Yes, not only do I get to sometimes dream about my stories when I think about them as I fall asleep, but I also fall asleep faster too. Thinking about real life can often keep me up at night. XD

Yeah, niether of my parents are readers as well. In fact, they don’t even care much for movies either. (Like, how?), They probably watch like…[Read more]

I’m a bit late to the party, but I’ve just gotta say that this is a great idea @gracie-j ! Bravo to your amazing ideas.

I will definetly be checking out and reviewing as many of these works as I can.

Unfortunetly dispite finishing a few books, they have yet to be published, so yeah, nothing much to promote for me. XD Though that may not be the…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

Haha, I never imagined someone could get story ideas from memes. XD

Oooh, why didn’t I think of dreams? While falling asleep is one of my favorite times to create or play out story ideas. Have you ever gotten a story idea from an actual dream?

@gracie-j

Yes! Lengthy story discussions! I’ve spent hundreds of hours with my…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

Yep, that’s a premise! And woah, seven books? That’s quite the daunting quest you’re on! What made you decide to write seven books for the series?

Lemony Snicket is one of my favorite authors as well! What’s is your favorite books of his? Although I love the Series of Unfortunate Events, my favorite book of his is the last book…[Read more]

@princessmk

A very warm welcome to the KP forum! It’s fantastic to have you!

(If your in the mood, I have some warm pre-holiday hot chocolate if you want any.)

Poetry has been something I’ve wanted to learn more about and experiment with, but I’ve been a little caught up with the many stories I’m writing. XD

How long have you been writing? And…[Read more]

@gh24682468999

No, but sorta yes? Since I’ve never done NaNoWriMo before, I decided that this year I’d do a Half-NaNoWriMo, (sorta like a half marathon), and write 25k in November. And next year I’ll aim to write 50k for NaNoWriMo.

At the moment, I’m not a super fast writer, so I don’t think I can commit the amount of time necessary to write 50k…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

Hi! I’m Kathleen and it’s awesome to have you in the Kingdom of Pen!

I can totally relate. The first novel was definitely the hardest. But once I finally finished it, writing became so much easier. (There’s something about the first novel that is particularly difficult).

If you don’t mind answering, what’s the premise of your…[Read more]

Porcupines for Barrett. He’d rather be in pain than be around something smelly.

Also, he’d rather edit my books. He likes to make things better than they were.

@gracie-j

He’d take all the revenge. And then some.

@e-k-seaver

Barrett would much rather be killed by his worst enemy. He would never hurt his best friend.…[Read more]

@gracie-j

Rom-coms aren’t usually my taste, but Lady Samantha sounds really interesting. Her dressing up as a maid to spy sounds totally up my alley. XD

Yeah, your probably right. I’ve read like, umm… ZERO romances, so no wonder they seem hard to write.

Woah. The Daughters of the Seven Seas series sounds like a really fun, interesting, but…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

No, haven’t. But if does secret identities well, I may have to…

@devastate-lasting

Barrett would like to sit on ceilings, so he can sneak around in places.

@jenwriter17

And he would like to live in the hottest place in the world because he could sell more ice-cream.

And here’s is my question for your characters: Would your character rather know the truth and know the horrifying reality that he/she is a…[Read more]

@gracie-j

Yes. You heard that right. A mule Stampede. Still to this day, I can’t help but crack up every time I read it. XD

We wrote that novel when my brothers were 10, and 13. So errrr…. yeah. We did finish the chase scene, and we finished the novel, but we never edited it so… the mule stampede still exists hiding somewhere in a google…[Read more]

@emberlynn

Ooooh, I like that idea. I feel like if all the books were connected with an overarching goal and a reason for why they are going through different genres, then it could be really cool.  With a series like this you could really get to know the characters well, and seeing them in different genres would be really…[Read more]

@nova21

I’ve always liked the outcast character. The character that it feels like the world is pitted against them, and they’re always the underdog. I’m not sure why, but oftentimes those characters also have great motivations for their goals and a great sense of humor. So yeah, I like outcast characters.

I also like characters with secret and…[Read more]

@gracie-j

Well, it all began in 2013. During a vacation, my older sister (who was the most into writing back then) suggested that we all write a story together. The name? Fighting Toucan Island. Though, it was about as cliche a story you can get. I was only nine, my older sister was twelve, my younger brothers were seven and five. Honestly, I…[Read more]

@e-k-seaver

Woah. This looks incredible! How long have you been designing book covers?

@gracie-j

Being able to write with my siblings is one of the best gifts that God has given me. There’s rarely a day that goes by without me thanking God for it in my prayers. XD

But that being said, there are a couple of cons… the first that comes to my head is when there’s a disagreement. When you write on your own, you get the final say in…[Read more]
