@catwing, so, I wrote a very long answer, only to have it disappear and KP log me out. I don’t have time to rewrite it right now, but I will try to get it to you.
@rochellaine, I agree with both of your posts

Ingrid replied to the topic Why do you write? in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 7 months ago
I write for two reasons. 1) Because I believe the Lord can work through words and that the words we speak and write have power. 2) I write because I have to. What else would I do with all these insane, lovely ideas swirling around in this head of mine? Not that ideas are a burden buuut…*glares at all my WIP…[Read more]

Okay. @winter-rose Finished my experiment thing, and now I’m on to my article thing, probably.

@winter-rose I’m here! I’m working on a characterization experiment for my MC and I’ll be working on an article rough draft later.

@Dragon-snapper I’ve recently started up a facebook page too, and I’m just learning the ropes. I normally share all my blog posts on there, and some updates on my WIPs (though I should do that more). I’m thinking of doing a ‘Saturday Snippets’ sort of thing where I share a piece of writing every Saturday, etc.
Other than that, I also second…[Read more]

Daeus replied to the topic Just a Bit… Dismal in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 7 months ago
@dragon-snapper First of all, nice example. 🙂
I don’t think that it’s too dismal by itself. Even a lot of that can be good. It creates tension, you know.
It just takes a little bit of hope to keep the reader on the right track. Simple things too. Depression works because it pretends to be immense. Little, pleasurable, “childish” (quote on…[Read more]

Sink replied to the topic One of my MCs is a MK in the forum Characters 8 years, 7 months ago
Hey there, @catwing! I am not an MK, but I did have one thing that I wanted to share with you that really, really irritates me in MK-stories.
The children hate going on missions trips. Seriously, in a lot of MK books I’ve read, the kids are like, “Daddy, I don’t want to leave all my friends and my school and my life!”
(Wew, that was irritating…[Read more]

Hiya @dragon-snapper! Nice to see you. I saw your questions, and as I’m in a bit of the same spot, I’ll go ahead and be extravagant and share all my answers. (Because we all know how much I like giving advice….*sighs* It’s a habit I can’t break.)
Anyway…your story feels gray, you say? Ya, so does mine. I’m… rather deep and depressing to be…[Read more]

@catwing … I think if I successfully create a poem from that I will have set a record. 😂……….. This is gonna be tough. 😬
@rochellaine haha yeah.. hmm… Wellll… It’ll probably a few days just for warning. 😂

Hannah replied to the topic Writer's Corner #13 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 7 months ago
@catwing @winter-rose just to be clear. I AM NOT leaving. Shannon and Emily are. Shannon messaged me to tell me a few things we’d talked about and asked me to tell anyone who asked/tagged them.
I’ll still be around though not as often as before. 😉😊

Snapper posted an update 8 years, 7 months ago
@ethryndal I’ve been watching Lord of the Rings lately, and whenever I see Galadriel, I expect her to say something sarcastic… XD
-
HA! HAHAHAH!!! This is the third time someone’s told me this, and words cannot express the sheer emotion that floods my soul every time.
I HAVE REDEFINED GALADRIEL.
*pumps fist* My villainous master plan is already beginning to take effect.
(And is… is that… is that your name? *hugs the dear sweet Danielle kid*)
-
@ethryndal *claps* Bravo! You redefine green elves, and I melt chairs. 😛
(Yep, I’m Danielle. 🙂 That’s me name. *stunned* Did an INTJ just hug me? 😛
-
Yeah, yeah, don’t get used to it. Sometimes INTJs have an identity crisis. It takes them all of 0.05 seconds to remember who they are and that they don’t hug people.
You do realize how strange this is for me though, right? Is this what if felt like when you learned that my real name WASN’T Ethryndal? *hyperventilates on the floor* What is life…[Read more]-
It was pretty weird, I’ll admit. I was like… wait. Huh? Is that her real name, or is that her pen name, or is that… ??? XD
*pats shoulder but does not dare hug you* Worry not, melon (is that the elvish word for friend??) at least I’m still a dragon.
*melts chair*

True, very true. And no matter how many names you may have, you will always be a Kid as well. 😀
(And yes, your elvish is mostly correct. Mellon actually has two ‘L’s, but I’ll overlook it THIS ONCE… 😛 See how merciful I am?)
-
😐 That’s me. The wonderful, wild Kid. XD If we ever meet in person (which we have to do, anyway. You’re in Maryland, right?) then I’ll call you Galadriel and you’ll call me Kid. *watches building explode in dragon fire and glitter*
(I never claimed to be fluent… Melons are tasty though.)
*is in awe of the mighty, merciful @ethryndal )
-
THAT WOULD BE SO EPIC. *envisions all the explosions* The dragon and the elf. We wouldn’t have any gifs to throw at each other though… I suppose we’d have to improvise. And yes, I’m in Maryland. I applaud your skills of observation. Is it too much to ask what state thou makest THY residence in?
(You have no idea how much it bugs me that…[Read more]

*hides beneath 10 days* Sorry it’s taken me so long to respond to this. I’ve been seriously busy.
Anyway…
YES I KNOW IT WOULD BE SO AMAZING!! I make my residence in the slightly more southern state of Virginia.

Hmm, I guess I won’t burn you in a ball of flame…

Okay.
So, one of my characters, Vanessa, in my current work Firebird is a missionary kid/teen.
And I thought I heard that some of you are missionary kids(or you can tag them and answer these anyway)? Do you have any advice? Things I should avoid that annoy you when you read books with MKs? Other stuff? Books I should maybe read for research?
