A few George MacDonald quotes:
“Whatever is capable of aspiring, must be troubled that it may wake and aspire–then troubled still, that it may hold fast, be itself, and aspire still.”
(If you love Sir Gibbie…) “Gien I was a Burnie, wadna I rin!”

Here’s an assortment of quotes from my WIP IFF.
“So, I smiled and waved as any other highly trained operative would do as they pencil dove from the top of a fifty-thousand story river lodge.”
“Who do you think you are, Spiderman?” Master Pinkerton glared at me over his glasses.
I straightened my collar and shrugged. “Actually I prefer James…[Read more]

Who’s turn is it to RP? I think I went last. =)

Hello there, and welcome to the Kingdom of Pen! I’m Koshka, a writer of middle-grade fantasy and spy-fi (if that’s a word), besides the occasional rambling poem. I was homeschooled as you’ll find most of us Keepers are.
(I have yet to write someone I didn’t like into a book, but I have seriously considered it)
Now for the…[Read more]

Koshka replied to the topic Coming up with scenes in the forum Plotting 8 months, 3 weeks ago
Do you want individual scene ideas, or help coming up with them?
Here’s what I’m sort of doing to come up with scenes. I’m using the Save the Cat notecard system for plotting.
For Act II (fun and games) is basically the characters either “winning” or “losing” as their arc decides. So…
What is the big story point you want this a…[Read more]

Oof, that is a struggle. I’ll see what I can come up with to (hopefully) help.

Koshka replied to the topic Playlists/Soundtracks/Etc in the forum Music 8 months, 4 weeks ago
I have two mixed playlists that I’ll listen to while
daydreamingstory building, one for each series. They’re basically a mixed up playlist of songs (and a few sound effects) that somehow connected to a character.So yeah, I probably should organize those more.
Then I have a playlist of just instrumentals that I’ll listen to when I’m writing…[Read more]

Congratulations. You have successfully destroyed every coherent thought in my head.
All I have to say is, Isaiah is wonderful.

She’s so cute! And I do believe pretty much every writer’s google search history is special. XD
And sorry y’all, this one took awhile and is kinda long.

“Yes sir.” I shrugged. What else to say? Of course we understood Leon wished to be left to his own devices. His body language stated he would rather be a he…[Read more]

Sure! I can’t wait to meet her.
And yeah, groups usually get too big when there are too many authors, not characters. XD

@smiley Poor Eleanor. You sound like you need ice cream. @freed_and_redeemed

“Mornin’.” She nodded to the men and flashed a smile at Eleanor. “Good to meet you too.”
Eleanor gave what could have passed for a smile in Siberia. The jitters melted away from Amanda’s step. I guess she saw something I didn’t, something she understood and…[Read more]

Ahem.

Also, hehe, what year did you pull Leon and Isaiah from for this RP? Because…
Half Raffe’s family is Israeli, and he has dual citizenship. So, is Raffe a citizen of a country that doesn’t even exist yet, or is he part of a really controversial state?
What time did you say Marek and Elenore are from? Cause…[Read more]

The hall went quiet for a moment but for the quiet patter of footsteps. A quiet patter that was practically shuddered in my head due to its sheer volume, or rather lack thereof. I shrugged to Raffe when he glanced my way and kept a faint smile in position.
Beeeeeep.
Great. I casually slapped a hand over my…[Read more]

Really?! I may be coming to you with questions then, if you don’t mind. I want to write her right/real, but I’m pretty sure I don’t have synesthesia (although I do have a pretty strong association of music and colors).

Awesome then! I’m going to add another character to hopefully help out with tensions…if having the trio together doesn’t destroy the whole castle.

Would y’all like to start this RP up again or modify it ect.? I can’t be super steady on here, but I can at least rp 1-3 times a week.
If y’all do want to continue it, I’d like to insert a character perhaps.

O_O I’m not sure I want to see this scene.
Poor villains. They can seem nice at times, and we as the authors know what they really need, they just never choose it.
I did once have my twin feeling kinda bad for one villian though, untill I told her he murders his brother.
She doesn’t like him now at all for some reason.…[Read more]

Still. *crosses arms* XD
I do understand though. Most of my antagonists are the MCs, but I do have a several villains and antiheros scattered through out.
Along with a few I sometimes feel sorry for everything I’ve done to them. - Load More
