Faith Q.

@keilah-h Nice, nice. Do you post your fanfictions anywhere?

@maryg3

Exactly! He’s such a tragic character… He makes me want to shake the main character and jump into the story to fix the mess myself since the MC can’t/won’t. (If it wasn’t for the Book of Truth, I’d really dislike her… She’s already not my fav…) lol

See you! God bless. <333

@will_starke *crying from mirth*

Are you sure?

Are you absolutely sure? Because you look somewhat familiar to me, heh. Then again, my facial recognition skills are pretty bad.

(Has everyone been stalking my welcome posts? Is that why all the newcomers lately have been answering this question? Is it? Fine then, I should come up with a new…[Read more]

@jasmine-godby

Welcome!!! (Ohhhh… Tiramisu… *dies inwardly*)

Yay, another Narnia fan!!! I’m a Narnia nerd, so it’s always exciting to meet another fan. And I love Little Women! Louisa May Alcott was an amazing writer.

Your WIP sounds awesome!!! I love fantasy.

Now, for the customary welcoming questions:

1. (*gasps* I SERIOUSLY GET TO ASK…[Read more]

@zatara

Oh, sea serpents are very cool! Have you seen the one in The Voyage of the Dawn Treader‘s movie? It’s a serious monster. 🙂 My favorite mythical animal would likely be a dragon, but I love the idea of phoenixes, griffins, and the rest.

Awesome! The only one I’m familiar with from that list is LOTR; the others sound really cool though!…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Thanks! 😀

@elfwing

Aww, so glad you liked it! Smaug… Such a beautiful character… *sighs happily* XD

@akbaer

Oh, awesome! It’s been a while since I’ve read them, too, actually.

Woohoo! Another pineapple pizza person! I love it too.

Ah, yes, griffins are very cool.

*gasps* You’re a Jane Austen fan as well??? I’ve read Emma too! I’ve read four of her novels, actually, and my favorite is Persuasion, hands down! Even Pride and Prejudice has to ta…[Read more]

@precious-y Thank you! My story is about a villain who has a conscience, so it’s been quite interesting to write.

@jasmine-godby *spotlight flicks on you stepping out from the shadows*

Absolutely!! It’s exciting to have another KingdomPenner join!!

Yuussss fantastic books to love XD Question of the century about LW though. Who, in your opinion, should Jo have ended up with?

Okay I first read your WiP description as “About an evil queen who has to save her…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

I love this topic! Thanks for starting it.

Personally, I don’t really plan these things out, so I can only identify my character’s lies after I’ve finished a first draft, sometimes much later (second or third draft). One story I’m just about to start the fourth draft and I’ve only just worked out the lies of the majority of the m…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Awesome topic!!! Here’s a pretty decent one from my fantasy WIP. It needs punctuational edits though…

The clearing was silent. Not even a ryip’s chirp broke the stillness. The long grass was smashed and flattened, the brush along the edge of the trees looked like it had been trampled, and in many places, the sod had been ripped up i…

@faith-q

Ah, yes, I understand. Honestly, I don’t really use maps. The places in my worlds pop into existence as I need them. It’s probably not the best way to make geological decisions, but it’s what I’ve done so far. 😉 I’m totally going to check out that website @daisy-torres mentioned though… it sounds awesome!!!

@e-k-seaver

Agh, this is such a tempting offer! Unfortunately, my plate is kinda full right now, so I don’t think I’d be able to get it done by the deadline. 🙁  I hope you get the feedback you’d like! Congrats on finishing a novel!

And, @gracie-j, thanks for tagging me!

@nova21

lol I may or may not feel very similarly about some of my characters… 😉

@nova21

I’m late (this is a theme in my commenting life rn… *facepalm*), but here are a couple of my MCs’ first lines. As a side note, BRILLIANT idea.

These two say their first three lines in the same scene and to each other. First, there’s Trevor, a moody, brooding bully (cinnamon roll type guy, though he doesn’t know it at the moment). Then,…[Read more]

@abigail-m

Oh, this looks lovely! Thank you for the invite. Hopefully, I’ll be able to read it sometime soon! <33

@zatara

Welcome to the forum!

*cheers* Another pineapple pizza person, yay! And I have to agree with your assessment of Narnia vs. LOTR. Tolkien wins, hands down (He is likely the author I admire most), but I also am and forever will be a Narnia nerd. 😛

Now for the customary welcoming questions:

1) What is your favorite mythical animal?

2)…[Read more]

@akbaer

Welcome to the forum, Annika!

I wholeheartedly approve of your hobbies as I myself enjoy all three of those things! And your book choices are also wonderful (J.R.R. Tolkien is probably the writer I admire most).

Fantasy is very fun to write and to read! Have you by chance read the DragonKeeper Chronicles by Donita K. Paul? It’s a…[Read more]
