Well, I’m late to the party as usual. BUT hello and welcome to Kingdom Pen, the bestistest place on the internet (I can’t believe I’m the first to welcome you properly)! 🙂

@hope Yeah, send it to me.

Hi, @Mark-Kamibaya, good to see you.

You’re right that overviews are essential, but I was arguing that they’re way too easy to overuse and that it’s best to always be critical of them.

To clear up what I was saying in my own novel, I was talking about any place in the novel where I overviewed events as if they happened in the past instead of…[Read more]

Hey, @Mark-Kamibaya welcome back!! It would be a poor welcome indeed if someone attacked you now… XD

I do see what you’re saying, and to some extent I agree. For the most part, however, we aren’t talking about scene-by-scene summaries. In @Daeus‘s case, it was several chapters summarizing a character’s childhood. (At least I assume that’s what…[Read more]

@hope Hmm, yes I should say it’s hard (knowing a thing or two about that). I think I’m starting to get the hang of it though. Let’s hope. Oh wait, I should say ‘let’s Hope’. Congratulations on your promotion to a verb.

I think I had some occasional problems with rough transitions before, but hopefully not anymore. If you see any though, please…[Read more]

@overcomer
I love the topic for the poem! Okay, you said you wanted feedback…so here comes some feedback. 😛

‘Till I am overcome
By the multitude in my mind
I am restless from

I would rewrite the last line in this stanza. I know it’s hard (believe me, I know) when you’re trying to find rhymes, but I think a different rhyme with “overcome” w…[Read more]

Daeus concurs. Very nice start, but needs a lot of help with rhythm.

It’s a lovely poem, @Overcomer— great concept, nice dexterity with the words and such— I definitely think it has promise. The one thing I’m not getting though is a consistent sense of rhythm. I’ll be reading, and think I’ve got a rhythm, and then I keep reading and the very next sentence it’s disrupted. I get the impression there IS a rhythm…[Read more]

Howdy friends. I did some editing on five chapters, which isn’t actually that crazy because I was just correcting some things a beta reader pointed out, but I feel pretty good about it still.

@dragon-snapper What I tend to do with writer’s block is take the block outside with a pocket knife and carve the block into a dragon shape. Try it out.

@overcomer *checks internet space* Whew. Just barely enough. Squeeze on in.

Welcome friends. *hands out ice cream cones*

@kate-flournoy Impressive. Hope you’re running goes well. Stay hydrated.

@Daeus sorry, gotta run. I got 716 words written though, so I’m pretty happy.

@Daeus m’kay I’m with you.

@overcomer @dragon-snapper @kate-flournoy I’m gonna write till 9.

@overcomer @dragon-snapper @kater-flournoy I’m gonna write till 9.

@overcome Ah, sorry. I’ll be busy for a bit here.

@Daeus thanks. I think I will. *calls over shoulder* ‘Hey Matthew! Did you remember about the confetti?!’
