    @joy-caroline I use the word “lit” constantly, don’t worry. The soundtrack in itself is amazing! I actually don’t remember if I watched it as a kid, but I did have a picture book based off of the movie so that’s probably the most I knew of it…but I (re)watched it last year for memory refresher. I love the soundtrack! Have you listened to…[Read more]

  • @hallie-jean Thank you so very much! I’m glad that you like it!! <333

    @joy-caroline @hallie-jean Ah thank you! Now if only I have the time…*pained smile*

    Yes! Directing a movie! Ahh….being an author actually might make even more than being a movie director… *distant sobbing*

  • Lin replied to the topic Hi, I'm new 🙂 in the forum Start HERE 5 years ago

    @hallie-jean Ahh I get you! Yeah, there are so many things that I’d love to write one day! I want to write enough to publish online, make soundtracks in the future, try to sign a deal with a site…I’m looking forward to all of it!

  • Lin replied to the topic Hi, I'm new 🙂 in the forum Start HERE 5 years ago

    @hallie-jean Ahh I’m getting into using the computer more often. Hits different. I think I write better on PC, but I also get more distracted. I’d encourage you to try it out sometime!

    What do you think that you would want to do with your writing in the future? Like what are some dreams you’d like to do with your writing?

  • Lin replied to the topic Hi, I'm new 🙂 in the forum Start HERE 5 years ago

    @hallie-jean *pained smile* Yep! Don’t know if it can be counted as finished though, just first drafts, all the way…I’ve yet to finish a book on the computer, though. I tend to handwrite more.

  • Lin replied to the topic Hi, I'm new 🙂 in the forum Start HERE 5 years ago

    @hallie-jean Oo, that’s sounds cool! Good luck!

    There are different types of books! Novels, novellas, all are different lengths! And word counts depend on genres too! I would say that personally, a novella is probably around 30k to 50k, while a novel is maybe 60k and above. You can also find out more by searching it up!

    @hallie-jean

    *lowers voice and whispers back* Whoa, seriously? That’s an amazing way to come up with character names! I came up with mine because of a TV show I watched. I liked one of the main character’s names, so I tweaked it a little and that’s how it came out. Isn’t it weird how inspiration strikes at the most random times??? I’ve learned t…[Read more]

  • Lin replied to the topic Hi, I'm new 🙂 in the forum Start HERE 5 years ago

    @hallie-jean Oh same here! Most of the time I make it up as I go, barely following my poor outline, haha…

    Are there any genres that you’d be interested in writing in?

  • Lin replied to the topic Hi, I'm new 🙂 in the forum Start HERE 5 years ago

    @hallie-jean Aw, thank you!

    Yeah, dialogue is great! I use it more often than description to develop characters.

    My favorite part about writing is probably plot twists and endings! I really like endings, haha.

    Do you tend to plot or make everything up as you go?

  • Kads replied to the topic Hi, I'm new 🙂 in the forum Start HERE 5 years ago

    @hallie-jean Ohhh, that sounds really cool! I like seven seas vibes 😀

    Hey, same! A few of my books cross into historical fiction too!

    I’ve been writing for… well, I can’t remember how long! I started taking writing seriously about 1-2 years ago.. and now I have seven books laid out before me XD. I’ve learned that writing is such an amazing…[Read more]

    @hallie-jean

    Oh, neat!! That’s an amazing name, too! She sounds really interesting! My MC’s name is Caira (pronounced Kai-ruh).

  • @scripter-of-kingdoms Ahh thank you! Yes, I’m bilingual, and to help myself improve I occasionally read books in Chinese.

    @hallie-jean Aw thank you! I’m glad you feel inspired!

    @issawriter7 Thank you! I love Camreigh as well XD Poor guy.

  • Lin replied to the topic Hi, I'm new 🙂 in the forum Start HERE 5 years ago

    @hallie-jean Ahh your characters sound so cool! Yeah, I agree, guys are kinda more fun than girls.

    I like Eleven, my central character from a fantasy that I’m writing. Secretly the crown prince but also the main villain…

    Also Micah/Shade/Ethan from one of my mafia/gangster books! I really like how well-developed they came out.

    And probably…[Read more]

    @hallie-jean Hi! Welcome to Kingdom Pen!

    You say you write fantasy? I do, too! Are you planning to write one book, or a series? 🙂

    I love the sound of your books. I like to blend genres with my fantasy! Do you?

    I really love to write, how long have you been writing for? 😀

     

  • Alexa Autorski replied to the topic Hi, I'm new 🙂 in the forum Start HERE 5 years ago

    @hallie-jean

    Awww, thank you! 🙂

    Girl, your book sounds AMAZING! That’s totally something I’d want on my bookshelf! And that was a really clear summary, too. What’s your MC’s name? I’m sure your book will turn out brilliant, too! Good luck! Happy writing! 🙂

  • Lin replied to the topic Hi, I'm new 🙂 in the forum Start HERE 5 years ago

    @hallie-jean Oo, I love the sound of that story! I would love reading about it!

    I don’t write short stories often, haha, and when I do like to write sad ones.

    What are some of your favorite characters that you’ve created?

  • Lin replied to the topic Hi, I'm new 🙂 in the forum Start HERE 5 years ago

    @hallie-jean Ah, I see! That’s perfectly fine!

    Oo, those stories all sound rlly interesting! Yeah, I get what you mean about motivation. It’s hard. You just gotta keep at it and take breaks.

    Ah, I’m currently juggling several stories right now! Some of my favorite past stories include one about a boy who has to make a choice at the end of summer…[Read more]

    @hallie-jean Hello, Hallie!!!!! 🙂 Welcome to Kingdom Pen!!!!!!! I’m pretty new here too. I love writing fantasy too!!! I’ve never finished a novel either, but I hope to complete the one I’m working on. One thing I’ve learned this past month is that I am more motivated to write when I am writing with someone else. If you’d like we can write…[Read more]

  • Alexa Autorski replied to the topic Hi, I'm new 🙂 in the forum Start HERE 5 years ago

    @hallie-jean

    Oooh, that makes me interested to read further!! *whispers* I may read more tonight, if it gets that good!

    Well, I don’t have an official summary. It’s set in a fictional world, but basically, there was a terrible war that wiped out magic one thousand years ago, and the corrupted emperor is responsible. So my heroine (her name is…[Read more]
