Hey, @dekreel . 🙂  Nice to meet you.  Actually, this thread is almost the complete opposite of Writer’s Corner.  Whereas the Writer’s Corner is a place to find other writers to write with and share each other’s progress, The Lounge is mainly a place for writers to chat (or complain) about writing or whatever else they want, and basically just…[Read more]

@everyone-here I’m out now guys! I accumulated a lot of ideas. Probably going to write a children’s book next. 😀

@sam-kowal Welcome!

@dekreel HI! I suppose that KPA is going well? 😛

I’m listening to my epic playlist. It’s a mix of a whole bunch of stuff.

@introvert_girl Well, I can only write in ancient dwarvish. It didn’t take me long to learn, since I practiced it a lot. I can still write it today. 🙂

@introvert_Girl Ooh…deleted scenes eh? Hope you find a way. 😀

Yes! EPIC MUSIC! Epic music and old notebooks. I just found my first notebook. It has stickers and whole pages written in dwarvish. XD

@introvert_girl Yes!! Aren’t they! I’m listening to epic music and stuff. 😀

Oh boy. Short stories. Those can be challenging.

@dekreel Yes! I haven’t seen them in a while, but their shows are awesome! 😀

And unfortunately no, it’s not Star Trek.

@dekreel Hi and doubly hi! I’m going to find a new story idea!! Bwhahahahah!

@Dekreel @That_Writer_Girl_99 @Dragon-snapper @Ethryndal @Daeus @Audrey-caylin @Jane-maree @Shannon @Sam-Kowal wow, thanks so much guys, all of you. Just getting the general feedback and feeling out opinion about the existing title helped me get so much more perspective.

@Jane-Maree, believe it or not, I had actually already considered Destroyer,…[Read more]

Raspberry breath… Haha. 😛

@shannon I’ll probably be back, but for now, KP does have a really good character questionnaire. A lot of questionnaires are dumb, but this one digs into the core of what matters. Check it out in our resource library. It may or may not work for you, but I suspect it will spark at least some inspiration.

@dekreel  Oooooo….ahhhhhh.  😉

@shannon  I don’t know about you, but when I first think of a character, I think of a face/name…and something about them that is weird.  That really helps to get the creative juices flowing a little bit.

When you are actually writing characters, don’t.  Make.  Them.  Perfect.  Make them real.  Make them relatable.  Give them a problem and/or…[Read more]

Random quote:

“So. How’s life with the humans?”

@kate-flournoy ‘Victorious’ seems a little too soon. Like “oh yes here’s the book, but don’t worry they’re victorious in the end.” That could just be me though. When I started reading the blurb you have there, it made me think “Destroyer” which has a stronger sound and also shows the struggle of the story a little too?

That’s just my thoughts anyways.

@kate-flournoy I agree that Victorious works. You can always use subtitles too if the title seems to plain to you.

However, it’s worth looking into new titles.

And now I’ve spent ten minutes trying to think of something and I’m coming up with nothing. 😛

@dekreel Well…yes. There is a reason. The reason was that at the time I was bored, couldn’t find a name for the castle. So I glanced around the room–this was during homeschool break–saw a Singer sowing maching, and thus it was the name of the castle was born. 😉

Ooh yay! I’m curious to see how you portray me.

@dekreel  That’s great news!  Congratulations!  *shakes your hand vigorously*

(And I must echo @dragon-snapper‘s question because I am just as curious…don’t feel obligated to put me into the story but…maybe?)
