Have you ever considered writing under a pseudonym, and why or why not?
I have considered it, and I have done it… multiple times. For novels I will probably always stick with my real name, however I pretty much always use pseudonyms for short story contests I participate in online. Mainly Reedsy’s short story contests as they have cool weekly…[Read more] -

Why have I not done this questions yet?! Thanks so much for the idea!
I’ve seen some other articles with a similar topic as the one you linked, but this one is by far the best. The questions are really interesting and unique, I’m totally going to use this. Thanks!

I’ll definitely be using both these as future Topics of the Week disocclusions! Thank you so much!
Also, it’s funny how you were just thinking about me asking you guys for ideas the same day I decided to write a post on it lol. Was it that obvious that I was running low on ideas?

So we’ve been doing Topics of the Weeks for a while, and strangely enough, I’ve never asked for input from you guys!
So I thought I thought that this week’s topic of the week would be, What discussion(s) do you want to be a future Topic of the Week?
What are some cool discussion prompts or questions that would spark an interesting convo?

I’ve never heard of The Lost Island of Tamarind, but now I’ll have to check it out after hearing what you said about it! I love stories with good characters and relationships.
220? Manga or not that’s still a lot of reading.
Do you have any favorite Manga you read this year?
Most of the books you mention are…[Read more]

Oof, it’s taken me forever to reply to all you guys, but here I am!
Woah, that’s like a consistent book week right? As a notoriously slow reader, I am in awe.
I’m going to have to check out Mark of the Lion Series by Francine Rivers then! I usually don’t read romance because I find them a bit dull and predictable, but from…[Read more]

Kathleen replied to the topic Help. I Just Don't Get the Appeal of the Wingfeather Saga in the forum Fantasy 2 years, 10 months ago
Ah, the Ninjago line was a joke, haha.
The Fangs in Wingfeather Saga reminded me of the snake creatures in Ninjago, so I thought I’d make a little joke about it.
But yeah, sometimes jokes get misinterpreted when it’s in writing like this, haha.

To celebrate the end of the year, I thought it would fun to have a discussion about all the books we read this year and what we want to read in 2022!
So we can kick off the discussion with some questions and then go from there.
How Many Books Have you Read this Year?
My answer is so sad. *sniff* I think I read like… five books? Uh, yeah, it’s…[Read more]

Cool cool. It’s rare to find friends that you hang out with in both online and offline.
Newt and Minho are also my favorite characters from the Maze Runner Series! However that’s just from me watching the movies, I’m not sure if my answer would change if I read the books.
I highly recommend reading The Hunger Games especially if you…[Read more]

Hi! Welcome to KP! It’s lovely to have you!Firstly I must ask you, do you have any favorite books or authors? Also, what got you into writing?
It’s awful that you are unable to access a library. Are you unable to access libraries because they are not in your area or is there some other reason? It must make it hard to ever read…[Read more]

Oh, yes! I do know Joelle! Was she the one who told you about KP or was it the other way around? I highly recommend writing a story with her. Writing stories with someone is a very unique experience, and the stories often are twice as good as they would have been if you were writing by yourself as you can fill in for each other’s…[Read more]

Kathleen started the topic What's something you wish you knew when you first started writing? in the forum Topic of the Week 2 years, 11 months ago
What’s something you wish you knew when you first started writing?
Something I wish I knew when I first started writing was that the more I focus on characters, the easier it is to write an interesting plot.If I would have known this it would have saved me from a lot of headaches. Whenever I first started writing stories I would get so caught up…[Read more]

Ah, that’s really cute!
It’s really cool how your friend inspired you to start writing seriously, do they write as well? If so have you ever thought of writing a story together?
I started writing around seven or eight. Two of my older siblings wrote (and still write), which inspired me a lot. Plus, after multiple failed attempts at…[Read more]

Kathleen replied to the topic What Kind of Writing do You Excel at? in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 11 months ago
Hhhmmm… Good question. I think my writing excels most when I’m working with my 3 siblings.
It kinda goes like someone has a spark of an idea, someone adds fuel to it, and then another waves the flame into a blaze.
Well, on good days that is. Most of the time we get side tracked and end up having an hour long conversation about how…[Read more]

Kathleen replied to the topic Heyyy in the forum Start HERE 2 years, 11 months ago
I’m about the same as you when it comes to Tolkien’s discography. Read the Hobbit, and the Silmarillion is on my to-read list. My brother highly recommends it, and I probably will soon once I actually read it, haha.
Thanks for the recs! I’ll definitely check them out.
How old were you when you started writing and what made you begin?

Kathleen replied to the topic Heyyy in the forum Start HERE 2 years, 11 months ago
Hi! Awesome to have you here!
I’m also a big LotR fan, have you read any of Tolkien’s other books like the Silmarillion or the Hobbit?
Do you have any favorite poems or poets? I’ve recently been getting into poetry and kinda don’t know where to start when it comes to finding good poetry.

Have you ever considered quitting writing? Why or why not?
For me, writing has always been something I’ve wanted to do more of, so I don’t think the thought of quitting has ever crossed my mind.I absolutely love writing with my siblings, I love writing by myself, there’s so many stories untold and so many areas where I want to improve. So I…[Read more]

Ah, yeah. I think we’ve all have written stories all too similar to the traits you described.
Out of all the things lacking in House of Mages, what area do you think you’ve improved the most in writing since then?
