@Kina-lamb I started Spanish last year. Because I needed to learn a foreign language for school work and I was uttering sick of French + I always thought Spanish was cool + lots of people speak Spanish + I’ve always had a thing for Spain + I want to write a Spanish character who slips into Spanish whenever he’s annoyed or scared because it just…[Read more]

@kina-lamb that’s a really cool idea!
Another method similar that I use sometimes is movie credits. There’s some random first and last names scrolling up the screen after every movie and I like to jot down some of my favourites if I have a chance.

@kina-lamb you’re very welcome. 😀
Nice! I’m pretty sure my sister uses a cannon. (and if you asked her she’d spurt out the numbers and letters and whatnot except I don’t actually know XD)
Oooh ooh I’m learning Spanish too!!! *bounces*

@Kina-Lamb nope. 😀 Not yet. It needs to be significantly better than it is before it’s ready for that. 😉

@Kina-Lamb *startled smile* Thank you! I’m planning to give it a major revision here pretty soon… but I’m glad to hear you like it already. 🙂 That’s really encouraging.

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Hi guys! in the forum Start HERE 8 years, 2 months ago
Oh, and @Kina-Lamb
I am also writing my own story – a children’s story. I think it’s important that the books children read are wholesome and productive, and it’s hard to find books like that these days. I also think that they should be interesting enough that anyone of any age would enjoy reading it.
This. You do this, and you will have my…[Read more]

@Kina-Lamb ha! 😀 I actually don’t remember where I first saw it… but I’ve always loved the picture, and when I first joined the forum it was just the obvious choice. 😉

@Kina-Lamb Whoa, plot twist! Daeus has a writing sister! And I know a lot of people have already mentioned this, but I’m going to also anyway. (please ignore my grammar 😉 ) Your photography is SO pretty! I don’t know how some people do it. I took a photography class this year, and totally flopped. 😛 Anyway, so glad you joined!

Audrey Caylin replied to the topic Hi guys! in the forum Start HERE 8 years, 2 months ago
@kina-lamb I just meant how you changed “photography” and “taking pictures” to “writing” and “writing stories” 😛
That’s awesome xD

@Kina-Lamb Hey, I was looking around on your blog, and can I just say that you’re very mature? Well I said it, so hopefully it’s not too odd. I loved looking through your posts—I love it so much when someone young is so mature and thinks about such important things. (And I’m specifically hoping this doesn’t sound like I’m treating you as a…[Read more]

@Rolena-Hatfield Oh that’s RIGHT, you live in Iowa don’t you! It’s near Lansing, IA…I don’t really know where that is except that it’s up near the Minnesota border somewhere…
*heartbroken whisper* So that means you aren’t already going?@Kina-Lamb Yes! Of course it means that, and I can’t wait to see y’all there. 🙂

Emma Flournoy replied to the topic Hi guys! in the forum Start HERE 8 years, 2 months ago
HEY @Kina-Lamb! I didn’t know you were a writer too! Awesome.
What’s your favorite book?
And what instrument do you play?
I’m looking forward to getting to know you better here.
Also to looking ’round on your website, but the computer’s being slow right now. 😉 -

@kina-lamb Woah! Mind blown! I had no idea @daeus had a little sister! Daeus, There is now a princess in the castle in that dragon story. 😛
What type of stuff do you write? What type of music do you play? How many questions can I ask you?
Welcome from the resident dragon!

@kina-lamb Welcome! I doubt I need to enumerate the awesomeness of Kingdom Pen to you. I’m sure you’ve heard lots about it already from your brother. ;D Every once in a while I get the photography itch, usually whenever my family and I are on one of our many camping trips. That’s some beautiful work you have on your site! It looks like you prefer…[Read more]

@Kina-Lamb HELLO!!! *waves enthusiastically*
My sister @willow-wispowing is a photographer and writer too! (although she isn’t very frequent on the forum) You’ve got some gorgeous shots on your website! *bounces* What sort of camera do you have?
Hand lettering? Ooh I’m soooo jealous. I really wish I could do that but…I simply don’t have the patience. 😛 - Load More
Thank you so much for the kind words, Emma! (That’s funny. Did you read my, “but be an example,” post? Not at all. I’m not offended if people say I’m young anymore. ) Out of curiosity, (I’m a very curious person!!) how old do you think I am? I haven’t told anyone yet, and I extremely enjoy hearing people guess how old I am. : )
Yep, I read at least part of that post…I always want to be sure I’m not hurting someone’s feelings, but I wanted to be extra careful after seeing that. 😉 I was pretty sure you’d not have a problem with that anymore though.
Hey, I’m a very curious person too, so you’re in good company. 🙂 I’m pretty sure I already know how old you are—12 or…[Read more]
@Kina-Lamb Are you 12 or 13?
13. And let me guess… you’re probably 15 or 16?
Yup, 16. How’d you guess that?
Well, I looked up your first introduction post, and you said then that you were fifteen, and it was dated nine months ago. From that I concluded that you were either almost 16 or 16. 😀
Aha, a very logical course of action. 🙂
Hi @emma-flournoy ! Do you have any ideas on how to describe an angry knocking on a door? I was thinking like a “Bang. Bang,” but then I thought it might be mistaken for gun shots. I thought about “Thud. Thud,” but it sounds kind of soft, do you think? It’s Turkish soldiers banging on the door of my great-grandpa’s house that I want to describe. Thanks!
Hey Kina!
You’re right, the ‘thud’ sounds kind of soft. ‘Bang’ is a little bettter, and I don’t think it’s too similar to guns, but it is very common. So…crack…pound…hammer…? Those wouldn’t all work the way you had it—the word repeated twice slowly. I mean, it would sound a little weird. ‘Hammer. Hammer.’
Hm. 😛 If you wanted to…[Read more]
@Kina-Lamb Did you find something to work?
@emma-flournoy oh sorry! I meant to reply to this. For now I’m just doing “Knock. Knock. Knock.” As I read over great grandpa’s story, I realized that the Turk soldiers weren’t really angry, they were just a little rough, so “Knock Knock Knock” sounds better to me now than it did before. I am going to add some background information before that. I…[Read more]
@Kina-Lamb Great! *high-five*
