I sometimes write free form poetry, just to get my thoughts out, usually in my journal. I have tried writing an “Epic” poem, which ended up being longer than some of my short stories and I structured it around syllables (each line had, I think, fourteen syllables), which gave it a really nice flow. That’s not a very popular way of…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 *blushes* Goodness!  Thank you. 🙂

@gh24682468999 I write structured poetry.  Daeus did too, but he’s not here anymore.  (He’s one of those traitors that snuck off to join the enemy at Story Embers. 😛 )  I’m horrible at giving advice, but I would guess reading a lot of good poetry would help.  I write mostly comic poems, so I don’…[Read more]

@kaya-young I like writing lots of different styles and rhyme patterns and rhythm patterns.  I don’t know what blackout poetry is.  One of my favorite poems is called The Destruction of Sennacherib by Byron.  Thats the first one that comes to mind.  Here, I’ll post it for you.

The Destruction of Sennacherib

@kaya-young I’m at the moment sort of experimenting with poetry once in a while. I like to write beautiful, graceful free verse rather than structured stanzas, although I do enjoy poems with structure as well.

Some great poetry tips I’ve heard include using imagery/metaphors as much as you can and aiming to make the piece beautiful.

Does anybody…[Read more]

@kaya-young aw thanks 😊 I just followed you and @ariel-ashira too!

@kaya-young I literally know nothing about poetry 😜 But I do know that my favorite poems have come from @rochellaine 😉

@ariel-ashira well, we can pick a genre and read a book of our choice from that genre (it doesn’t have to be the same one) and share fave quotes and writing tips we learned from the author.

Awesome, and I’d love to follow you too 😉My name is Jenna Terese on Pinterest, but if you can’t find me (I have the same profile pic there) then I can post a…[Read more]

@rochellaine @catwing @ariel-ashira @alia @daughteroftheking @seekjustice @kaya-young @skredder

so, since I’m a spy on SE (😜), thought I’d share an idea that came to me: our guild master there wanted to set up a book club, but I told her I couldn’t do it because I didn’t think I’d be able to keep up. But what if we started one here? And we could…[Read more]

@rochellaine But SE is nice too! They so have great articles and things, that KP is unable to keep up right now.  But don’t you ever worry – I would desert SE before I left here!!!  I spend most of my time over here, anyway.  I am not a spy or a traitor, thank you!

But…if I did leave would you miss me?  Not that I ever would, but do you actua…[Read more]

@jess-penrose you said you were going to send me some things in passive voice?
@alia Yay for your friend!
@daughteroftheking AND OUR KEYBOARDS ARE DUSTY AND COVERED IN SPILLED DRINKS BECAUSE WE CAN BARELY SEE AND HAVE TO LEAN TOWARD THE SCREEN TO SEE WHAT WE ARE WRITING!!! AND WE HAVE GONE CRAZY OVER MISSSPELLED WORDS AND HOW THEY CHANGED THE…[Read more]

*bursts in on sugar rush* I HAVE NOT ABANDONED THIS KINGDOM! I HAVE READ MOST OF THE POSTS WHILE I WAS AWAY! I’M NOT ON SE YET!
*Stops to take a breathe* Hi IMMA KAPEEFER, Til I’m old and gray! We should combine them!
Sorry I’ve been hiding for editing. *cough*…[Read more]

@kaya-young Ah, that might work.  Except for one thing.

Until they appear back in the Kingdom, at which point we will accept them into the forums again very kindly.

That is a wonderful statement, but we have already broken it twice.  After Ben declared he would visit once in a while, both you and Ariel made cracks about him being a traitor.  Do yo…[Read more]

@kaya-young, I love your story. It brought tears to my eyes. (whether from laughter or sadness I refuse to say)

@supermonkey42, you should feel bad! Abandoning your kingdom for the pleasures of SE… We should take the title of Kapeefer and Keeper away from you

@rochellaine, @ariel-ashira, Kaya, @skredder, @jenwriter17, @daughteroftheking

I say…[Read more]

@kaya-young *knits aggressively in the corner* I WILL finish this shawl before my laptop dies… 😀

@kaya-young  Thank so much for reading and for the comments!!! 🙂

@rochellaine @jenwriter17 @kaya-young @skredder @ariel-ashira and everyone else

I didn’t realize there was still anyone on here! I might have been a little less “traitorous” if I’d known.

Yes, I can definetely add that to the Compendium. 🙂

Okay, really, guys, you’re making me feel bad for abandoning the Kingdom. Maybe I’ll check in every once…[Read more]

@skredder Thats good, because I cant knit either, only crochet a little.  My sister is a crocheting expert, and she says its way better than knitting.

@jenwriter17 @kaya-young @rochellaine  I know, it seems as though everyone has deserted us.  And all those double crossers who snuck off to SE on hiatus are hopelessly gone forever.  So tra…[Read more]

@kaya-young Oh, that is so amazing!  I love it!  Yes, until we are old and gray KP will not be abandoned as long as we can hold knitting needles.

@rochellaine I understand how the joke was started.  I read everything on these topics.  I was just pointing out that we usualy hold pens, not knitting needles! 😀 Thanks for the explanation though. *la…[Read more]

@skredder yeah crocheting works 😉

by the way, is it okay if I finish reading Seekjustice’s last part of her book and then read the rest of yours? It’s been taking me a really long time to finish Seekjustice’s, and I thought I’d finished her shorter part then get to your longer one.

Sorry I can’t be on right now 🙁

@kaya-young *sobs and laughs and raises knitting needles at the same time*  This is awesome! My loyalty has been cemented into Kingdom Pen! 😀
