@Josiah-DeBoer I’m gonna be 100% honest here that I am drawing a blank. XD I honestly am not sure how you can get more plot-twisty than what you already have because, um, wow. That is a big twist there at the end. One thing to consider is that since it’s only about the length of a novella there is a bit of a tighter limit on how many plot twists…[Read more]

Welcome to Kingdom @Lady-PenDragon!!! That’s a pretty awesome tag you’ve got. 😀 😀 😀

@Mariposa

Erm, kinda hard for me to really say because I, too, am a hardcore trial and error learner. XD I usually only look to outside sources when I have a question regarding materials (i. g. paper and brush quality, cost, availability, etc.). But, that said, if I were to look for some tips, I would probably be apt to study depth perception,…[Read more]

@Catwing Thanks! Glad you like them. 😀
I would suggest the app Leonardo for doing the collages, but to be fair I never tried anything else. XD Also, it’s $4.99, so that might factor in on your decision. 🙂

@all-of-yous I’ll be praying. <3

@PrincessFoo Thanks! I’m glad you do. 🙂

Uh, YES. That would be totally awesome if they met. XD

@PrincessFoo Yesssss. Those are great too! I think I may like The Ranger’s Apprentice just a teensy bit better, but the most recent Brotherband, The Ghostfaces, had me teary eyed by the end sooooo….yeah, they may actually be tied. XD
Fun fact: the name of my favorite character from my WIP is actually based on the name of one of the Genovesan…[Read more]

@Revayah1 Welcome to the forum!!!
That’s super exciting about your book! Congrats on making it light years of ahead of me on the road to publication. 😛
And yet another INFJ. *shakes head in wonder* Whoever came up with the statistic that INFJs are the second rarest female personality type has obviously never looked at a writers’ group before. :P…[Read more]

@PrincessFoo Welcome (officially) to the Kingdom! I’m so glad you decided to introduce yourself. 😀

I love The Ranger’s Apprentice too!!! And book nine…that’s Halt’s Peril, right?

@Daeus @Mariposa @Brandon-Miller @Ethryndal @Northerner @Hope @Audrey-Caylin @Jane-Maree @JosiahDeBoer

Thank you all so much!! This is a huge help.

To answer all your sorta-questions collectively, the post is probably more along the lines of a philosophical/personal experience/just for laughs post. If that makes sense. 😛 It is divided into…[Read more]

@DaughteroftheKing First off, I think this a perfect example of how writers can get into some pretty weird conversations. XD I love it.

And it seems you’re pretty much covered here. Everyone’s making great points, and I especially like @Kate-Flournoy‘s point about theme and plot.

I’m afraid I don’t have much to offer myself, but there’s always…[Read more]

@Joy Fascinating idea! Definitely thematic potential here. 😀
I’m gonna echo what some of the others said too: I personally would put it in a fantasy world with strong similarities to tie it to the Civil War era. It just sounds plain easier to me because there’s more freedom to wing the details. But it’s, of course, totally up to you, and if…[Read more]

@Dragon-Watcher Welcome to the Kingdom! 😀 That’s an awesome dragon photo you have for your profile pic. 🙂
