@dekreel  Praying hard.  ❤️

*evil snickering*

Yeah… @Daeus and @Sam-Kowal were right. I’m the wrong person to ask.

@Dragon-snapper

@sam-kowal Yeah, Dalinar’s character arc was amazing. Didn’t think Sanderson could top Kaladin’s in WoR, but he pretty much matched it. Yeah, Adolin seemed to get away with that, and I was also looking for some closure on the moral questions being raised regarding the morality of war. I suspect, though, that Sanderson at least plans on continuing…[Read more]

For a first time author, avoid going over 120k; 130k max if you absolutely have to. Once you become published, you can push the limit more (I just finished a 450k fantasy work that topped the NY bestselling list), but publishers aren’t willing to risk those sorts of word counts for unpublished authors.

Oh, wait, you already asked Kate this question. WHY!?

@dragon-snapper The max? Hahahahaha!

Oh, dear. The max, you say. Well, I don’t know if there is a max. 😉 Probably very few people if any have ever written a 1,000,000 word fantasy novel, but I will say that the trilogy I’m working on is looking like it will end up that long.

And whatever you do, don’t ask Kate this question!

Oooo, that rhymed….

@gh24682468999  I just have to say, it’s GREAT to see another INFJ!!!!  *high five*

@epicaddie2  I’m praying!!!

@alia  Oh, I will definitely pray.  🙂

@mariposa  I love to draw!  That does not mean that I am good at it, however.  🙂  I also enjoy painting!

@dragon-snapper What @daeus said. 🙂 Feel free to pop by again if you have any additional questions after watching it!

@sleepwalkingmk I think that’s a really good idea. Three EiLs are hard to fit into one book, so splitting it into two books seems like a wise move!

@Dekreel too many ideas and getting too excited and determined about finishing them all and saving the world by Thursday, Friday at the latest. 😛

Here’s an *awful* one I wrote for a novella I’ve started…

Finnegan “the Mistake” Lane has learned to expect the insults and bullying from his own sister—and in some cases, his parents.  What he doesn’t expect is to get kicked out of the house and sent to live with a crazy aunt he doesn’t know whose home people are afraid to set foot in.

@dekreel  My w-weaknesses as a writer?  *pulls out 100-foot-long list*  Let’s see here.

I care too much about what other people think.  I have a tendency to view myself as not good enough in relation to writing.

@xonos-darkgrate I basically side with @kate-flournoy, though I don’t think that swear words cannot ever ever be used.

We had a discussion on this before you might want to read. https://kingdompen.org/forums/topic/coarse-language/

Basically, my position is that you should try as hard as you can not to use any swear words and that the majority o…[Read more]

@winter-rose I am so thrilled for you!!! And overjoyed that you’ll be writing more. And proud of you for taking this scary step. And I can’t wait to see where God takes you. And I’ll be praying for you. 🙂

Much excitement for you!!!

*stares at topic* I swear this thing is rearranging itself as we speak. My reply is now below your post. I have no idea what’s going on. XD

@Winter-rose something odd happened and your post wasn’t here when I got the notification, so my reply is above your post and I accidentally tagged Hannah… 😛 *winces* sorry…

Anyway… THAT’S SO AWESOME!! *tackle hugs* Definitely be praying.
