Hi! Thank you! I’m Miranda or Ribbon Ash, depending on where you may go on the blogosphere. I don’t know if you’re a blogger or you read blogs, but I’m known as both names. You can call me whatever name you like. ^_^ Yes, fantasy and fiction! Those are so my areas! I’ve written some poetry but it didn’t really click with me. I really…[Read more]

@kathleenramm Headache? For my written one, I guess, my main headache is that I never plotted anything. So it feels like kinda that I’m riding down a hill on an out-of-control bike.

Biggest joy? That I’m actually getting it done. I’m glad to train my writing muscle to handle that much writing every day.

@kathleenramm

Hello! *waves* Thank you! It is wonderful to be here!

Thank you! No, I didn’t. I can’t draw that well. It is by one of my best friends, who was so nice as to draw one of my being species from one of my WIPs! I ask so to have that extra inspiration for how I imagine them to look like. I adore it so much that I made it my profile…[Read more]

@kathleenramm Hi! Thank you!!! 🙂

Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!! 🙂 Me and my sisters started it at the same time. The site went up last summer but it was in the works since last spring. I guess when covid hit the blog was like our project since we suddenly had extra free time. And also, last spring, we had attended a writing webinar that was hosted…[Read more]

Hey, weirdo writers are the best.

Well, I first started out my series with one book. Then one turned into three, and I kept having new ideas about supplemental history books and prequels and offshoot series books and now it’s kind of turned into its own thing. XD

Yeah, I think ATLA is really good! My favourite characters are Sokka…[Read more]

@kathleenramm Ah thanks for the inspiring words! This is my first time venturing out into the publication world, so wish me luck 🙂

@kathleenramm

I’ve actually not published any novel, but I’ve got a short story I’m about to start edits with an editor for ’cause it’s gonna be published in a teen anthology that comes out in March. I’m SUPER EXCITED about all of that!!!!! Aww, THANK YOU!!!!!!! <33

@kathleenramm

I really only have one major writing goal (even if that’s the only thing I achieve with writing, then I’ll be happy), and that’s finishing my novel. I’ve been writing on this novel for a looooooong time, so if I can have it completely finished/edited/ready to be sent to a publisher by this time next year, I’d be over the moon ^-^…[Read more]

@kathleenramm

My writing goal this year is to finish my WIP, The Snow Warrior. 

To publish a short story.

And of course make another 50k in the next NaNoWriMo.

@kathleenramm Thank you! The blurb is this:

Dragon ink allows writers to set history in stone—or to change it.

Duyên Lai’s dreams are realized when she’s admitted into the ranks of the calligraphers, authors considered trustworthy enough to defend time from those who would change it. She’s thrilled at the opportunity to record her country’…

*blinks* That is a lot of replies!

I should mention that I am on a partial media detox, so I am not watching a lot of movies or listening to a lot of music right now.

@joy-caroline

Hi! Nice to meet you. Once my blog is fully launched I will be sure to follow you. *smiles* *still does not know how emojis work*

1. Is is a secret, sorry. Plus, I…[Read more]

@kathleenramm Here okay let me just pull out my bullet journal of completely UNREALISTIC writing goals that I set for myself this year.

-Finish That Forgotten Summer arc

-Finish the arc after that one (temp named “Masks” for ease of use)

-Write the first two parts of the arc after that one (temp named “Gardens”)

-Finish the three short s…[Read more]

@kathleenramm

AWESOME goals!!! I have no doubt that you’ll TOTALLY be able to accomplish them!!!!! GOOOOO Kathleen!!! *waving pom poms and passing you motivational chocolate*

I’d like to have at least either an agent or a publisher for Into the Lamp. I’d like to write a few more short stories and get some published in online magazines. (I’ve…[Read more]

@kathleenramm The Hunger Games sound like such a cool series.  I’ve got the first book, and I’m hoping to dive in soon.  Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and a little more on the other books, too.  I’ve added them to my ever-growing TBR list : )

That’s so neat that you’re so invested in learning Korean.  I’ve never absolutely love…[Read more]

@seekjustice I’m over here bemoaning the fact that you just dismissed Oliver Twist and Pride and Prejudice in the same paragraph, haha.  It’s so interesting to hear everyone else’s opinions, but it makes me sad when people don’t like the books I love ; )

@kathleenramm Perhaps one of the things I love most about Pride and Prejudice is how Aus…[Read more]

@kathleenramm

Everyone has already said my absolute least favourite book, Pride and Prejudice, so I’ll mention another very popular book I really, really hated.  I could not bear Oliver Twist, it was awful, it was boring, it was convoluted, Oliver wasn’t even a person, more of a plot point. This was highly disappointing because I love Dickens (h…[Read more]

@kathleenramm

I love that!!  Thanks so much!!  I especially like #9.  I can put scenes in every category that you and @erinrramm mentioned, so we’ll just see if I can put it into word form!!! 😃

It would be cool!

@kathleenramm

(I don’t know if this is where I should put this, but here goes) Out of curiosity, do you think KP would publish a series of short stories?
