@xonos-darkgrate Hi!  I remember seeing you around here, though I don’t believe we’ve ever directly spoken – er – posted to each other before. 😉 You know @dekreel don’t you?

(I have successfully posted a GIF…once…)

Anyway, welcome back to KP. 🙂

@dekreel …not really. I’m trying to edit my book and figure out some schedule things. But hopefully I will return to finish this. 🙂

@xonos-darkgrate Nope.  I’m working torward it though.

@xonos-darkgrate Well, I love history, so research isn’t a chore to me. 🙂

Have you ever finished or published a book?

@xonos-darkgrate I write mostly historical fiction, but have some ideas for a dystopian.  Since I have so many I want to write, I try to just focus on a couple at once.

Do you write book length poems?  I write poems, but not book length.

Thank you!  This is helpful.  I also read an older article Reagan Ramm wrote about cussing in stories, which had some good thoughts.

@xonos-darkgrate Hi!  I don’t remember seeing you before.  I joined the Kingdom earlier this year, so you probably weren’t around.  Glad you are back just the same!

You aren’t alone because I still don’t know how to post a GIF either. 😉

What do you like to write?

@ariel-ashira Everyone’s answers were good, but what Seekjustice said is true. We can give you a bunch of tips and our opinions, but really it’s a matter for your conscience and personal prayer. I hope the answer comes to you soon! 🙂

@warrenluther04  Haha, I totally understand. Okay, that’s good! Hope you get everything figured out!  😉

@ariel-ashira

I honestly think this is a matter for your conscience. Some Christians feel comfortable writing/reading books with swearing, others don’t. I personally choose not to add in curse words because I just don’t see the point. I think it also depends on who you’re writing for. Middle grade, for example, I don’t think should ever have…[Read more]

@dekreel Oh my gosh, I’m so sorry I’m so late. 😐 Yes, I will continue writing it; I’ve just taken an extended hiatus on it (partially because I’ve been planning/writing my current WIP). I will hopefully get back to it in a month or so after I fully get used to juggling high school, swim, writing, KP/SE, and writing. I have some more ideas for it…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira  Personally, curse words don’t bother me in books until they are misused or used too often. That being said, I don’t generally find curse words very offensive, as I’ve grown up around several people who cuss. This summer I visited Ireland, and they cuss constantly! If I were to describe that experience though, I don’t think I would…[Read more]

@catwing  Are you still working on Catwing Christmas these days? 🙂

@warrenluther04  Soooooooo. . . Are you going to continue writing Dog in KP?

@ariel-ashira  Xonos Darkgrate once made a topic about swear words. Maybe it has what you’re looking for, maybe not. . . See how it works for you! 🙂

@ariel-ashira

yes we lost a guinea pig in the spring. we’ve actually lost three over the last few years, two of them due to using the wrong bedding for their cage. We didn’t know that pine bedding wasn’t good for their respiratory system. 🙁

@ariel-ashira

Oh, that’s so sad! We just had to put our pony down so I know what it feels like. I’ll be praying for your sister and your family.

Thank you, @jenwriter17

I remember you saying your guinea pig died not to long ago.

@ariel-ashira Of course I’ll be praying; I know how it feels to lose a pet. I hope you all will feel strength and comfort.

I’m glad there were no lasting effects from her concussion.
