(*pokes head out of glitter* @Emily Oh hey fellow ENFJ. *high-five*)

@Daeus Oh right, To Soar ON Eagles. It didn’t give me any Native American vibes till Kate mentioned it (thanks a lot Kate. XD) but I don’t think it’s the best one anyway. Yet.

@Glitter-Ocelot GLITTER! *reverberating cackles* I am the glitter elf of the forum, and I am pleased to welcome you here. *drowns the forum in glitter* Believe me, the fact that you stated your MBTI type right off the bat has automatically endeared you to the hearts of half our population. Me, on the other hand… I’m endeared by the nerrrrrrrd.…[Read more]

@Emily The part of my brain that is so done with life is strongly suggesting I abandon everything and go live by the ocean and eat chocolate for the rest of my days. However, the sentimental side of my brain loves this book and totally agrees with you. So yeah, thanks. I hope my sanity is recoverable. 😀

(@Emma-Flournoy, this is a banner day. My…[Read more]

And yes sometimes we do imitate Americans but are far more likely to imitate the Russian accent.

Russian accent? That is beyond cool. XD
@theacornman

I am starting to get into a really bad habit of not reading. I kinda need to be kicked for it lol.

I may or may not be guilty of this also. Maybe I should melt my own chair.
@theacornman

I’m gonna tag @graciegirl in this, just because I know she’s been there, done that.

And also, some encouragement: life happens. So do plot holes. Take a break, get your sanity back–if you can–and don’t be afraid to try something new. @ethryndal

@daeus Ooh, I like that…although it is a little long. Of course, the title ‘The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe’ is long too. XD Maybe instead of ‘who’ you could say ‘that’….I don’t know…weird Snapper preferences.

@glitter-ocelot Hi hi hi! Welcome to KP!

Er, yes @josiahdeboer We does want to know the story behind your name??? *glances between the two of you* *shrugs* 😛

I am Dragon Snapper, both a dragon and a Samwise Gamgee and a writer and a lover of sci-fi and fantasy and a million other things.

Anyway, glad to have you here! 😀

@ethryndal Oh yeah. Taking a break from something like that is very good. Not only do you want to prevent yourself from a burnout, but also, it can lead to something even better, like what @mariposa said. I’ve done that multiple times. Planned out a story, begun writing it, then stopped. In fact, I have more than thirty stories in my files that…[Read more]

@Ethryndal do it. I plead horribly guilty of workaholism, but more and more I’ve come to value re-charging and taking a step back for a change of perspective.
I strongly do not recommend trashing the story you have, but I understand where you’re coming from. My current WIP (yeah, that one) has been going for three years and it drives me bonkers…[Read more]

@ethryndal Taking a break is one of the best things a writer can do when they’re stuck. I wrote two whole books which I ended up abandoning because of plot holes, but mainly because I was writing the way I thought I was supposed to write. I didn’t know what to do or where to go with my writing. I started writing a kooky story just for fun, and it…[Read more]

*pops in* DID SOMEONE SAY PERIOD DRAMAS?

Oh hi, @TheAcornMan. Are you new? I didn’t see this til now. Welcome to KP!

@Daeus oooh, that’s more like it. I don’t think that one necessarily (because it gives away the ending) but that’s definitely a whole lot more dynamic and deep.

@Daeus that does give off some pretty strong Native American vibes, just so you’re aware.

Salutations, @Glitter-Ocelot! You know your MBTI type. I like you already. *grins* Hello, and welcome to the realm of the KeePers of the Pen. I’m an INFP an I write just about anything speculative. Prefer fantasy right now, but really fantasy is such a broad term… eh… nevermind. 😛
Once again, welcome. What’s your favorite book? If you can…[Read more]

@glitter-ocelot Welcome to the goofiest place on the internet (I *cough* technically did not say it, @josiahdeboer). Me, my assistant (Aberdeen the authorosaurus), and his best friend, Dee-Dee the doodledactyl, greet you! I’m elated to find another glitter lover (I literally shed glitter everywhere I go). Do you like to draw/paint or make homemade…[Read more]
