@augustinaii

Ahhhhhh!!!! Yes! It seems you understand it so well, even though I didn’t explain my WIP very well (at least in my opinion XD). Daren feels very insecure about only having one hand and it affects her relationships greatly. Thank you for your kind words!

And your lack of commas is an interesting, and rather admiring, style! I like…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Ooooh! Your characters sound super cool! Okay! I’ll try, but bare with me cuz I have no idea what I’m doing! I have next to zero role-playing experience!

Also, I apologized before-hand for my character’s attitude. He’s kind of rude sometimes…

He stumbled back, both because he lost his footing dropping to the ground, and…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon

Alright, thanks! I’m going to be completely honest that I haven’t been following the story the entire time (I mean, it is over 400 pages…) so I’m not sure if  I’ll be doing this right or not, but please let me know so I can fix anything! I’m not really sure how to do this, but I guess I’ll try… 🙂

My character’s name is…[Read more]

@augustinaii

Hello! My names Hallie! You sound like such a lovely person and your stories sound amazing! I’d love to hear more about them!

First, I have a question! What is your favorite punctuation????

Also…THOSE MAPS!!!!!!!! They are stunning! I’ve been really wanting to create one for my WIP but don’t really know where to start! Do you…[Read more]

Wow, I’m late to this! XD

But I was just wondering, from the rules stated at the beginning of the forum, if there are already ten characters in the castle and if there is not, could I add one??

I totally understand if not! Just curious! 🙂

@emilysf

First off! Cool pen name!

Second of all! DID I HEAR YOU ARE A KOTLC FAN????

(pls say so. It would be a tad embarrassing if I was just hallucinating…)

Anyways, hello! My names Hallie! How do you do?? I have been absent from the forum for quite a while but am excited to be back!!!

You’ve probably already answered this, but what genre…[Read more]

@kathleenramm

I just recently wrote a short story with a rather bittersweet ending, but no, not a tragic one… *sigh*

As bad as it sounds, I’d like to try a tragic ending sometime. I think the problem is I get to attached to the characters to want to ruin their lives in the end. Also, it’s like some kind of puzzle for me at the end of a story.…[Read more]

@keilah-h,

I love them too! The Arlington’s names are honestly what makes them come alive to me, haha… and I love Indi!.. and everyone else, now that I mention it.

Anyway, thank you, and I agree 🙂

@emilysf,

Ooh, those questions are super helpful and thought-provoking! I’ve thought of some of them before, but I’ll definitely use them to keep the plot churning!

(And if you ever think of more, please don’t hesitate… the further I get this, the better!)

Equally important second things second: my YA fantasy.

I’m not even writing this one until NaNo (for now I’m focusing on the above story and editing past ones), but I want to start getting comfortable with the idea and turning ideas around in my head. I want this to be a trilogy, and I don’t have enough story for that yet, so I’d love anything…[Read more]

First things first: the middle-grade contemporary.

Indium Grace Arlington lives a pretty normal life for a 10-year-old… except for her crazy family, whose escapades are generally the talk of the whole town. (Not that the town is that big, of course.)

Okay, so maybe her life isn’t all that normal.

I mean, they were kind of doomed from the…[Read more]

@godly-fantasy12,

WOAH.

THAT WAS INCREDIBLE.

Seriously, that was great writing. Now I wanna read more!

@denali-christianson,

I’ve only skimmed what other people have said, but I do agree with them for the most part. If you feel like your character needs to be white, that’s totally fine. Don’t push anything on your characters that feels unnatural; trust me, I’ve tried it. Just go with the flow and what feels right for your story.

That being said,…[Read more]

@unsung You’re welcome!!!

Aww THANK YOU!!!! I love yours as well!!!

Hello @unsung welcome to the Kingdom!!!! *waves* We’re SO thrilled to have you here!!! I’m Issabelle, but feel free to call me Is or Issa or any other nickname you come up with – it’s much quicker to spell, lol. And fantasy is one of the best genres ever!! *high fives*

@maryg3 Hey, Mary!! From what I’ve gathered about the bit you shared, it seems your book’s overarching main focal theme is about finding your place in life. (Did I get it right? 😂) So for my personal opinion, I think it’s really great to have more than one message in a story!!! I mean, we as people are so complex and learn so many different…[Read more]
