@ingidrd Yeah man! Noses are hard. *nods*
Thankyou! You’re a sweetie. 😀

@jenwriter17 Yay! I’m glad you like it 🙂

That’s Stella haha. (Not the name I would have chosen now, but 7 year old me thought it was majestic.) Shes a cutie pie, but a bit spoiled.

@daeus Yeah….. no.

I don’t really know that many authors. Haven’t been to any conferences really–one local teen one–but otherwise… not yet. XD I’ll let you know if I can think of any.

@notawriter *squeals* it looks so good! I like how you did the hair too, it’s flowy and soft looking. I think the expression suits her. It’s not a full out smile, which she doesn’t do often. Thank youuuuu! ❤

ooh, cat! He/she is sooo cute!!!

@dekreel @notawriter Cool! thanks!

@princessfoo Thanks so much for your input! No, Rin doesn’t fall in love with the soldier guy (his name is Jax). I’d rather not include romance in my novels. They become friends though. Just friends 😊

@jenwriter17 It sounds neat! I would read it. *nods*

@ingridrd Cool drawing! 😀 Good job. I think you captured Rin’s character a little better then I. haha. *thumbs up*

@jenwriter17  It sounds really cool!

The only thing cliche I see about it (putting it next to the video on Dystopian novels) is the fact that the main character is a teenage girl

I’m no expert on the Dystopian genre, so I might be worng…

But still, I would read it 😉

@jenwriter17 Okay! Done 🙂 Sorry, it took a bit longer then I wanted it to. 

Ick, sorry about the bad lighting xD

I hope the expression suits Rin, even just a little bit xD I probably erased that mouth a good 10 times and i’m still not quite happy with it. Ah well. 🙂

@mnvalentine Yes, I think the effect previous events have had on the characters is super important to keep in mind! Thanks 🙂

oh, here’s a collage too…

@jane-maree @dragon-snapper @dekreel @mariposa @aratrea @sam-kowal @daeus @anyone else

Okay, y’all…..

I’ve gotten together a rough blurb of my dystopian novel. very. rough. Lemme know what you think:

Independent teen Rin Adachi lives with the Outcasts. Those tossed aside by the government and society as unfit for city life. The diseased, the…[Read more]

@dekreel oh my goodness! 🤣

@notawriter lol, for sure

@ingridrd that’s okay, I would have said yes anyway. 😉

*gasps* so. good. I love the way you did her hair! thanks so much! and I really like how you wrote her name too 😊

@seekjustice I never saw a sparkly bear; I never hope to see one; but anyhow or anywhere; I’d rather see than be one! 😀

@notawriter It wasn’t very hard to find an illustrator.  I created a topic on the KP forum titled “Looking for an Illustrator” and got a few answers.  I think it took a couple weeks before I got a definite agreement from s…[Read more]

@notawriter

You know you’re a kapeefer when you spend a ridiculous amount of time trying to think of a kapeefery thing that you do (That hasn’t already been said!) and then feel bad because you couldn’t

Well, you invented the word “Kapeefery!” That’s something XD

You know you’re a Kapeefer when all of a sudden you start loving the name Josiah…[Read more]

You know you’re a bookworm when you try to find themes in everything, not just books

@daeus  I know — It’s creepy  *rubs head* X)

@notawriter  I did actually consider that! I’ll leave it to someone else to add the raspberries

@perfectfifths  Oh, my indeed 83

@dragon-snapper
I think that can be effective, but in the sequel I’m working on right now the external antagonist isn’t the main conflict of the story. I think it would be misleading if I did that in this instance.
I think it’s very important to think of it as a *new* book. If there’s nothing new, then there’s not really a point in telling the…[Read more]
