@Leon-Fleming wow that sounds really involved. It seems like you got all the math worked out for it. I have never heard of somebody writing a novel in poetry. I am curious, is this in rhyming poetry or prose?

@Leon-Fleming you are right. NaNoWriMo in November is supposed to help you write like 50k words in a month or something by writing 2k a day. I am talking about camp NaNoWriMo in April and July which are supposed to help you get on track and practice writing that much for November. July isn’t as strict as November.

Thanks, @devastate-lasting good luck with your writing schedule!

Really cool songs @Samuel-p-robbins! Definitely sound like they could be soundtracks to a novel.

Definitely a touching story. What can we do to restore what was great about Kingdom Pen in the past?

@devastate-lasting That’s awesome! Which DAW are you thinking of getting?

@Leon-fleming Thanks! And that’s cool you’ve written some songs too! And I can totally understand the struggle of finding the time. It’s definitely been hard for me to keep up with both music and writing.

And that’s great you’ve got a couple of my songs! Glad you like them!

Well I’d love to hear anything you have!

And by micro-genre I mean you want to get really niched down as far as what genre your music falls into.

If you try to target fans of piano music for example, you’re a very small fish in a very big pond, and even if you are discovered, your music isn’t as likely to resonate.

Instead you want to dig…[Read more]

I absolutely love this idea!

Here is my latest work-in-progress…

Andromeda Coast · Robot City – Demo

Ah, cool! Yeah, I’m pretty sure he had a different bandmate(s) at the time.

Piano-pop/piano-rap…kinda like Twenty One Pilots then? Haha! That’s cool!

Ah, so more of a getting started with marketing advice?

I’m personally about going the Indie route and not signing to a label these days.

I actually have a guide that gives an overview of how…[Read more]

Welcome @not-so-secret-secret-assassin !

My four younger siblings all do Taekwondo! And my youngest brother is a black belt as well! Cool!

What video games do you like to play?

Glad to have you here!

Hi Samuel! It’s great to have you here!

Congrats on already having a novella finished! And Fantasy and Sci-fi are right up my alley! My first novel, and the one I’m currently rewriting, is actually called “Frozen Fire”, which sounds pretty similar to “Fire and Ice”. haha!

And hey, another music composer! I do as well! Do you have any recorded…[Read more]

Pretty sure it was before Vessels came out, so I don’t know what album that would have been.

I write all of the music for my songs. I just use virtual instruments for the most part, and yeah, other software to arrange and mix. Here’s a short clip of what it looks like. 

And nothing to be nervous about! Everyone starts somewhere! 🙂

Are you…[Read more]

1. I actually didn’t know about his old stuff. I just remember my sister showing a video of him performing “Trees” live at a small local place in Columbus Ohio and talking about how cool it was she went to school with him. That was before they went big. The school was Worthington Christian. She didn’t actually know him personal, just knew who he…[Read more]

Welcome!

1. I love TwentyOne Pilots! My sister actually went to school with Tyler Joseph, and I started a band with a guy who used to play with him.

2. Rak Chazak!

3. That’s so cool you’re a songwriter! So am I! I actually have a Synth-pop band called Andromeda Coast. Do you write any music as well?

Glad to have you back!

*Prances about stupidly* Not sure if being a Wise Jester is much better than a Bumbling Henchman. At least I’m wise?

<p style=”text-align: left;”>*blows dust from keyboard* Sorry, peeps, things got hectic.</p>
 

@daughteroftheking love the name of your blog! It sounds so dramatic. And you story installments sound interesting too. I dont necessarily know how to do climaxes but I have heard it said that to build tension you use short, quick sentences.

Thanks!…[Read more]
