@trahia-the-minstrel Hi!! I’m so sorry I’ve been dead on KP… *cries* Oh, my, I’ve really been ghosting the forum, eh? I’m so sorry! Please forgive me. I’m so busy lately that I just don’t have so much time for KP anymore. (Sorry in advance if I reply late to you ever again 😅)

Oooo, yes, I LOVE Zelda games!! Thanks for tagging me!

Hmm.. I…[Read more]

@kathleenramm Many, many things. I wish I’d known how to format dialogue properly, I wish I’d known that I didn’t need to follow every single piece of writing advice I’d ever seen to the letter, and most importantly, I wish I’d realized that characters are what make a story interesting. Plot does as well, but it is secondary to the emotional pull…[Read more]

@avacoulter Nice, nice! I like watching where my characters take me (since I’m a pantser too) but I think I like writing the ending most. It’s very satisfying, and also kinda bittersweet.

@kathleenramm I wish I knew that typing was more efficient than handwriting.

Thanks to choices my 12 year old self made, I am still handwriting a certain story to this day.

@avacoulter

Spider-man is top tier–how many Spider-man movies have you seen? Just the Marvel strict, or Andrew Garfield, and Toby Maguire included?
I absolutely loved Bucky’s arc… and definitely not because it gave Rogers more screen time…

Hawkeye is very good so far! It’s a Christmas themed show now, I guess, with how much they’ve woven…[Read more]

@avacoulter It’s probably the farthest I’ve gotten in a novel, actually, heh. I’m looking forward to writing the ending.

What do you like most about the writing process?

@avacoulter Oo, interesting! Dystopian stories are always fun.

One of my current projects is about a guy named Joey who works at an antique store, time, wings, existence, and memory. It’s a weird kind of story so I feel like a premise wouldn’t encapsulate it enough. It’s basically inspired by things and people I saw throughout summer.

@avacoulter Nice! My favorite Avenger is definitely Iron Man, but I also love Spider-Man 🙂

@avacoulter Thank you!! It’s fun to write with her, we’ve been writing together for years but have never published anything together. Hopefully this project will be the one! That’s cool that you have so many siblings! I have three of them myself 🙂 If you ever need another beta reader, feel free to let me know! I’d be happy to help 😀

Yeah it’s…[Read more]

@avacoulter Hm, I’ve written so many, it’s hard to choose a favorite, haha. Do you have a premise for your current WIP?

@avacoulter

Hullo! Welcome to KP.

I’m Anatra, and also a big Marvel fan. Do you have a favorite Marvel movie? Are you up to date on Hawkeye?

Random question, do you think socks belong on chair feet?

@avacoulter I have one WIP I’m working on with my sister! It’s a fantasy/mystery that takes place in a medieval-style city. The story follows two women as they uncover things about the mystery individually until their storylines intersect and they join forces to stop a big political coup from happening. We were initially inspired by old buddy cop…[Read more]

@avacoulter Fair, fair, haha. Any favorite stories you’ve written so far?

@avacoulter Hoi, welcome! I’m Lin, always dabbling in a variety genres, like crime/fantasy and other things.

It’s been so long since I’ve commented on any of the intro threads, haha. Anything in particular you wish to share?

@avacoulter Ahh your WIP sounds so interesting! I like the Maze Runner too!! I’ve only read the first book but I’ve seen all the movies with my sister.

Yeah lyrics are pretty distracting, I can’t focus on writing at all with lyrics playing in the background XD

@power That makes a tad more sense… No need to rephrase it again, people reading this thread will understand.

I suppose I am best at writing emotional snippets, usually quite sad and dreamlike. Not sure, though. Not many people have read them.

@power Bold of you to assume that I can’t both be a writer and a brontosaurus.

As for what I excel at, I can’t exactly tell you. The way your question is phrased raises a lot of questions in me. Why, what kind of writing do you excel at?

@avacoulter Welcome to Kingdom Pen! I’m Jodi, I mostly write fantasy these days, though I also write dystopia and historical fiction when I feel like it XD. And I’m also a big Marvel and LOTR fan!

Some questions:

What were the inspirations for your WIP (if you have one right now)?

Do you listen to music while writing or do you prefer silence? I…[Read more]

@lydia-s You’re welcome.
