@Mariposa *folds claws primly* I’ll have you know I’m a very civilized dragon. I do not melt chairs.
@celticcailin did you… did you just give me permission to rant on psychology—? *is nice and restrains herself*
I’m Introvert all the way. I like people but most of the time they wear me out. 😛 Have you heard of Myers-Briggs Type Indicator? In…[Read more]

@Salome01w4g ha! 😀 Unfortunately, no. But she’s taller than I am and *coughs* more of an adult, so people usually think she’s older. 😉

Sweet! We’ve several historical fiction writers on here I do believe.

@Salome01w4g Hmm… not myself, but we do have a few historical fiction authors on here, so let me do some tagging for you.
@MarkMcGuire @WarrioroftheRealm @Northerner (though I realize your stuff is a lot older; still, any researching tips?).

@Salome01w4g welcome to the besti— oh wait. She beat me to it. *sigh*
WELCOME TO KINGDOM PEN. Yes, @Emma-Flournoy and I are sisters, and theoretically I’m the oldest. Theoretically.

And… *grins*… if you think that reply is long, you haven’t been hanging around this place long, have you? XD

Regardless, so glad to have you now. What do you…[Read more]

@Destiny I’m late to the party but welcome nonetheless. 😉 You compose music; that’s so cool! I adore music but I’m afraid most of my involvement has to do with just listening to the work of others. 😛 You’re an INFJ and you sound crazy so you should fit right in! I’m an INFP by the way. *grins* So good to have you.

@GracieGirl that’s awful. D: Definitely praying.

*folds claws patiently* Dearest Elizabeth, is there any reason to hide the insanity of this place from a new recruit? How else will she survive? @That_Writer_Girl_99

@celticcailin hellooooooo, fellow dragon! *initiates crazy dragon dance* So happy to have you here! As you can see, I’m a dragon too, and there are a few more floating around here somewhere. 😉 We also have an elf and some assorted unicorns… I think… it gets a little hard to keep track of after a while. XD

What’s your favorite of Lewis’s…[Read more]

What everyone else said. I think switching names and such from the common terminology is cool. That being said, I have the Prince and Followers in one of my own books. But the religion is a backdrop for another theme and not a great part of the plot in and of itself. It depends a lot on your angle and point of your story. The larger a part…[Read more]

This is hilarious. And the dramatic fainting… XD

As for renaming my MC in each book, that is a great idea. *nods* I shall have to remember that. Does it work even if the MC is a woman?

@That_Writer_Girl_99 I’m over on the doc. 😉

@WarrenLuther04 I think I can safely say that’s the oddest story idea I’ve ever come into contact with. 😛 Sounds like fun.
Aaaand this may be cliche, but the instant I saw ‘cat’ and ‘villains’ all I could visualize is dogs, dogs, and more dogs. :”D Poor creatures.
I actually really like the rats idea though. XD
You could also make it a…[Read more]

@Joy *nods* He’s clever. He does our courses. Listen to him. *nods again*

Hello @WarrenLuther04, and welcome to the bestistest place on the internet! 😀 What’s your favorite genre? To read and write? What kind of music do you like?

As for the stories question, let me just direct you to our publication guidelines. 🙂

I have to warn you, guys are severely outnumbered on this forum, so beware. *grins* As the forum…[Read more]

@Rolena-Hatfield didn’t figure it could. 😉 Thanks anyway.

@That_Writer_Girl_99 I still haven’t had a chance to read that. D: Sorry… I should get to it soon. But just for now, Imma risk @Emma-Flournoy‘s wrath and say if you don’t like third person, don’t use it. First person mightn’t have the scope third person does, but for those who can write it well it makes up for that in depth. I’m going to hazard…[Read more]

@Joy … and I’m supposed to tell you which one to pick??? *tears out hair* Those all sound awesome! 😛 I really, really like Aethra Falls. All the others are still great ideas, but that one is definitely my favorite.

Yep. What he said.

@Allison-Grace hey! Welcome to KP. 🙂
While I agree with every point made in that video, I don’t believe that just because a story has a few (or even all, necessarily) of those ‘cliche’ elements that it’s a bad allegory.
What do I mean by that?
Well, the problem with cliches is that so often they’re written just ‘because that’s the way things are…[Read more]

I’m an INFP, btw. 😉
