@that_writer_girl99 Aw, you enjoyed it that much? 😀 I’ve only been overseas once in my life, the States when I was 5, to visit my dad’s family for Christmas. I only vaguely remember it. But I’d love to go again, to visit some very good friends I’ve made who live over there. That, or go to Europe. But Canada sounds like a great place to visit as well 😀

Hey Devastate! Welcome to KP. Someone is going to be sure to tell you it’s the bestistest place on the interent. So I’ll just tell you that I’ve found the Kingdom to be a very wonderful place!
What is your novel about? 🙂
I’d love to talk true art with you sometime. 😀

@that_writer_girl99 Oooh, where abouts in Canada are you? 🙂 Not that I’ve ever been… 😛

@that_writer_girl_99 Haha, “Flournky” 😀 And possibly the very fact you’re away from home and in a new setting is why you’ve escaped the writer’s block 😉

@dragon-snapper Okay, done, hopefully it works out 😀

@dragon-snapper Whoops! I thought you were. Okay!

Okay! @dragon-snapper Should I PM you on the YWW? Or is there another way you like to do it?

@anne-of-lothlorien Put your TNT away, it worked! XDXD I love it! That was just too funny!

@dragon-snapper I saw the call and wondered what needed betas. I could offer reader feedback-BUT-I do not write poetry. Would that be helpful?

@dragon-snapper. Okay, I’ll do it 🙂 You can count on that pickiness 😉 I could probably do it by the end of the month, but I will let you know if I do need more time. And so long as I don’t have to put my email online, I’m sure it will be fine 🙂 What will I have to do?

@dragon-snapper That’s super exciting! 😀 Another friend of mine recently self-published a book of poems through Amazon as well.

I have a couple of questions before I possibly say yes:
1. What exactly are you looking for with the beta reading? Feedback, obviously, but are you also wanting things like grammar/spell-check and general editing? I…[Read more]

I’m excited to get it into the hands of my friends! 🙂 Thank you so much, @michael-stanton and @theliterarycrusader ! 😀

Thank you. 🙂 I’m not sure if it will be at the August or September meetings. But I’ll let you know what happens! If that “best practices” collection of tips from KP staff could be available before then, that would be great! @stewie-plotter By the way, Professor of Plotting, that suits. And how do we know that you haven’t been blowing smoke rings…[Read more]

@bethanysinkyroses, I think that will work nicely. I will right up a quick summary for @theliterarycrusader to use to create a graphic (don’t worry, I will also put it in the official channel of “getting stuff made”).

Goal of the Handout:
A physical reminder of an amazing conversation with a fellow writer that communicates the core qualities of…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper Congratulationssssssssssssss! Unfortunately, I don’t have the time for beta reading. 🙁 Too much to do, too little time. But I wish you all the best and if you have questions about the publication process itself, I’d be happy to help. 🙂

@Aratrea The advantage of a follow button is that you’ll get followers that way who aren’t otherwise committed enough to actually sign up to a newsletter. Depending settings, they will automatically get an email when you post something and your post will show up in their reader feed. I know there are a number of blogs I follow because it just…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper Sorry for a late reply! I like both songs, but I think I like the second one more. Do you have music to put to it, or is that not a part of it? I haven’t actually written a song myself (meaning, I haven’t written a decent song. I used to write songs a lot when I was little) but I would love to, and I think it’s great that you’re…[Read more]

@his-instrument What Daeus said. You’ll only ever have one blog page (though you can change which page your blog posts go it, be it blog or writing or something else). But each post you can add to one or more categories and then you can link categories in your menu so when you click on writing, all the blog posts that are categorized under writing…[Read more]

@his-instrument, @dragon-snapper *springs to attention* Did someone call? Beta reading and email exchanges, is it? I think you’ve already emailed Kingdom Pen with your email, @dragon-snapper. You can do the same thing, @his-instrument. Just email Kingdompenmag@gmail.com and give me your real name and forum name so I know who you are, then I can…[Read more]

Also, I’d recommend getting easy ‘follow’ buttons on your site. There’s the email follow, but I’m not sure if that is for the blog or newsletter. And a WordPress follow button would be very helpful to your readers.
