ella replied to the topic Fantasy Kingdom Names in the forum Fantasy 3 years, 5 months ago
Heeeyyy! Wait, are you writing a fantasy? Let’s go Joy! ;P
Well, let’s see… When I come up with place names, I like to use fantasy name generators. I don’t always use exactly what they generate, but it gives me a jumping off point to create and combine different styles according to each of the worlds’ traditions. Som…[Read more]

ella replied to the topic Using a Pen Name: Yay or Nay? in the forum Publishing & Platform 3 years, 5 months ago
I have a pen name for privacy reasons only, although I’ll probably change it to my real name if/when I publish. I’m all for pen names, though–they’re fun and creative and can draw a reader in just like your cover and title can (in a way). If you want to, I think it would be fun for you to come up with one. That may just be me…[Read more]

Oooooo I would DEFINITELY love some character art!!!! THANKS SO MUCH for the tag!!! I’ll go with the lead girl character in my current WIP. Her name is Ashlee and she is sixteen. She has medium-length auburn hair and brown eyes. Anyway, I searched and searched to try to find the image I used for my mock cover for Ashlee’s story, but I…[Read more]

Issabelle Perry replied to the topic Writing the Climax in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 5 months ago
Hmmm… this is a tough one. I don’t know how much I can help you with this but one thing I always try to remember is, what happens at the climax doesn’t matter as much as what happens leading up to it. Literally, whatever your mc has been trying to get throughout the whole story, just take it from her. If there’s some romance,…[Read more]

I’m off to a gorgeous library for theologians to go study at, but I’ll get in because of my dad, lol. I got my sheet of theme notes and my computer and ready to write a…[Read more]

@not-so-secret-secret-assassin
A Party sounds spectacular. I’ve gone to quite a few parties in my life time, and by many I mean two. Both of which involved burnt cookies and awkward conversations with people who were in the weird gray area between friend and acquaintance.
I’ll bring bottled cherry soda, gift them with the opportunity to choose…[Read more]

I have a character named Ly in the book that’s coming out in September, and I would love some art of her. She’s seventeen, with curly blond hair, blue eyes, and freckles (tons of freckles). She’s short… she’s not thick, but she’s not a stick either. She’s very artistic and creative.

Hi KeePers! I’ve been reading over some of my old writing and I’m a little discouraged right now. It’s not that my books are unbiblical or unethical, it’s just that I’m lacking strong, foundational themes in my books recently. I’ve been trying to add them in, but they seem a little forced and/or preachy. (
It might also be that the genres I wri…[Read more] -
