Hi Sami! I guess I’m a little late in welcoming to Kingdom Pen, (sorry about that), Welcome to Kingdom Pen! I’m Abigail by the way and that’s awesome that you have self-published, other authors on KP have as well 🙂 Ah, I understand completely about editing, have you ever visited Reedsy? They have editors and a string of other…[Read more]

@typewriter77

Okay, I’m a little late welcoming you here, but, anyway, Welcome to Kingdom Pen! I’m Abigail by the way and it appears everyone has taken all the good questions, except for the two that I ask everyone, what is your favorite setting to write in? And what is your favorite character type? Not fully astounding questions, but I’m always…[Read more]

@lewilliams

A bright orange ice cream truck that plays “We Three Kings”? That is the crown jewel of ice cream trucks! And so strange and funny at the same time, it would make an excellent addition to a story!:D

@devastate-lasting

Maybe one day you will get to make a story from it:) Because that totally sounds like it would make an epic one 😀

@relia

That’s awesome! That kid sounds like an amazing character, (if only he knew he were going to be immortalized as a MC ), but I guess that proves that all is fair game to a writer XD Seriously though, just by reading that, I can tell that he has got to be quite a main character 😀

@seekjustice

Aw, I love that memory 🙂 It reminded me of my own origami memory a long time ago. A boy from my old church, who had a chronic disease, had made an origami dragon (he was great at it), and I still have it actually.
And so when I read that, I had to read the story you said you wrote and girl, that was nothing short of beautiful. The…[Read more]

@Kathleenramm

That is an incredibly cute story! And you added ghosts? How does that sound amazing!:)

As for me, this happens a lot. I see things in real life and -this is why I carry writing supplies everywhere, even just around the farm- jot random things down from a man riding out of a grocery store on a shopping cart to a boy and girl that…[Read more]

@gracie-j

Your contest looks so amazing!:D I saw it in your newsletter, count me in!

@godlyfantasy12

That’s awesome! 😀 To be honest, I think my first two drafts were zero drafts as well, and looking at my new draft as a first draft, makes approaching it much better as well:) Good luck 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀

@lewilliams

That’s awesome! I would highly recommend ‘Dark Horse’ by John Fischer. It’s a beautiful short allegory, is my favorite book possible (fiction wise of course) and I highly recommend it! 😀

@mkfairygirl

Of course!:D

@elfwing

That’s awesome that you’re moving to Nova Scotia!:D

That sounds awesome and six novels? Wow, that’s incredible 😀 And from what I’m hearing about them, you should definitely try and publish after you polished them as much as possible, (but remember that there actually is an ‘enough is enough’ point. I know that sounds strange, bu…[Read more]

@elanor

That is amazing!:)

I think I’ve heard of Shine FM as well:)
Yes! I live in the states and am pretty sure that K Love reaches many places around the world. Hmm, but they do have it live on their website: klove.com
It’s phenomenal and I’d 100% recommend it:)

@writerlexi1216

And I positively ADORE those portraits of Evie, Arya, and Isla!!!!!!! Evie’s cloak design is so mystical and mysterious, and Arya looks just like I imagined and Isla? She’s stunning!! I adore all of your line art and the cross-hatching and shadowing effects and all of the beautiful small details like Isla’s collar:D I can’t tell…[Read more]

@writerlexi1216

Alexa it is then! Besides, that’s an extremely awesome name:D
*Pokes head back into KP website after so long* So much has been changing and just like you said, I’m thinking “how much did I miss??” A lot I suppose, but yes, ‘crammed schedule’ should have been my middle name XD Thank you for being so understanding, I genuinely a…[Read more]

@relia

I’m a big believer in Doing Whatever Works For You, however, I’m personally going to go against the grain here and say that for me personally editing a duology together is what works better for me. I’ve written a duology and I’m currently in the process of editing it (or I’m pretending to edit it rather), and for me the best way to do it…[Read more]

@kathleenramm I actually did write a story based on it 😀 a little bit loosely albeit, but here it is if you’d like to read it 😀 https://docs.google.com/document/d/1oa-DrOTBmcNVHcn3DZbgjPmYM1qNDuKPzyE_u0AWeaA/edit?usp=sharing

@devastate-lasting

Oh, wow. What kind of car was that? If you do end up writing this into a story I bet you could make up some really cool explanation, like… alien car, fairy car, super-high-tech-rich-guy’s car, I don’t know. XD

But I can imagine it being a really fun scene.

@lewilliams

Haha! It would would be really fun to write about a…[Read more]

@lewilliams hello there! I haven’t heard from you since the Intern days 🙂

*Rubs hands together* I’ve got plenty of recs for you.

First of all, I recommend a good reread. Whenever I get in a reading slump, I do a reread of some of my favourites. I just finished a Narnia reread and I’m currently doing a LOTR reread (in which I also hope to read…[Read more]

@lewilliams I with ya, girl!! I want to read a WHOLE LOT more now that I’m off of school!!!!😜 Also, high-fives for getting a job at the library!!!!!! That’s so cool!!!!! 😀

So for book recommendations:

1.  The False Prince by Jennifer A. Nielsen (this is the first book in The Ascendance Series)
