@sam-kowal I seem to remember Stan’s “heavy metal death screams” being mentioned before. 😉 😀

@celticcailin Also, here’s a link to a songwriting topic we had here awhile ago

@supermonkey42 😀 Yep. And Stan sings them. It’s hard on the ears, believe me

@celticcailin I have some experience writing songs and such, but I’m definitely no expert. I actually barely know anything about any real songwriting ‘rules’ I just go from what I like to write personally. I’d love to give you any help I can. Do you want to post your songs, or a link to them?

@celticcailin Hi! I love music, but I don’t write lyrics (I play cajon.)

I think @dekreel , @sam-kowal , and @alia write songs, though. (Tell me if I’m wrong, guys!)

Good luck on your music!

@gh24682468999 Also, having your MC’s personality different than your sidekicks personality can be more interesting and realistic than if they are the same.  I guess, all of your characters will be different while always having a little of you in them too.

@alia. Ooh, I love it!  Now I want to read the whole thing!

@annaberens. Hi!  Welcome to the Kingdom of Pen!  Do you know how to post topics and such?  Glad you are here!

@celticcailin Hi!  Very few of my songs turn out fit to sing. 🙂  Do you feel comfortable posting any of your songs so we can see them?  (Its totally fine if you don’t.)  Sounds like you already have some better advice anyway. 🙂

@gh24682468999 I think my favorite thing about writing is creating my characters!  I never thought when I began writing that I would feel so close to my characters.  Sometimes I’m like, “I am so sorry I have to put you through this, my dear character, but its for the best I promise!  You will triumph in the end!”  🙂

Is it your characters per…[Read more]

@waterlily Nope. I don’t outline before I start. The most I ever do is write a couple of ideas for the next two or three scenes and have a general idea of how the story is probably going to end.

Sometimes it doesn’t turn out the best, but, hey, that’s what editing is for. 🙂

@seekjustice Thank you for your prayers!  God has given some pretty clear direction, even though its not always been what we would have chosen. 🙂 Please do keep praying.

@skye Welcome to the Kingdom of Pen!  How old are you?  Do you like to draw?  So glad your here!

@ariella-newheart  I would love to draw him, but I don’t have time today.  Maybe later this week!

@rochellaine good night! It is late!
I got a little more done. :3

@rochellaine Ditto! Alice is going around acting know-it-all and annoying. One of those crazy villains… *cough*

I think I do okay with my antagonists… I hope.

I killed off Kay’s parents in her prologue. But then I felt bad and made them an epic back story (why chosen kid’s parents are important persons. :P).

@rochellaine Okay. I only have a bit of time.
This is actually the first time have written down a scene with Alice… Kay’s archnemisis. 0.0
Trying see how everyone reacts to her, and her bopping of their swords and noses. She is supposed to be annoying. 🙂

@jenwriter17 maybe. It all depends.

@rochellaine @jenwriter17 @seekjustice @alia
I’m working on the CC. Poor KaPeeFers. Poor Kay. Poor, poor me… *sigh* Putting my favorite underdeveloped characters into Kingdom Pen…
Another wonderful day as a writer. :3

@waterlily I do outline, although not extremely extensively. I pretty much plan the ending of my story first, work back, plan out all the major plot beats and what’s going to happen in the chapters. If I have an idea for a scene or something of the sort, a piece of dialogue I want in, I mark that down, too, to go somewhere in the narrative.…[Read more]
