@ariella-newheart Ok, ok, you’re right. I checked. 😉 And yes, WRITE MORE QUOTE STORIES.

Here’s a couple of prompts:

There’s a difference between someone not present but accounted for—and someone present but not accounted for.

One’s late, and the other’s a spy.

“Well, it was vitally important that you wear blue shoes, and look what came of that.”

@ariella-newheart HOLD UP hold up! Wasn’t I the cook for the Aethasian Community (or whatever wacky name we ended up calling it)? I thought we agreed I could make quesadillas for everyone. 😛😛

@ariella-newheart You sneaky-sneak…😛

*rubs hands* Rhyming nonsense poems are my specialty, so BEWAREEE MWAHAHA!!!

The Steampunk Cat
You want to me write a poem, you do?
Well beware of the One-Man Writerly Zoo!
You honestly think that you gave me a challenge?
I’m an expert at this, nay I don’t even cringe!
So before I write this epic adventure,
And check all my spaces and lines and indentures,
I’ll have you know, I’m an expert in rhyme!
(And because I’m a writer, an expert in crime!)
****
Well, once on a time, there was a man named Lukas.
His inventions ranged from Egg Hats to Aether-Bazookas.
You’d think that the time spent on his creations
Would show him a man of singular inclinations.
But this was not true, he had one fatal quirk,
For all sorts of kittens, Lukas went quite beserk!
Especially one, his pride and his joy,
He bought it new beds, scratching posts, and new toys,
And he loved it more than anyone could,
For besides being cute, this kitten was good!
He fed and he raised it and trained it with care
(Even though oft it would sit in his hair)
But then came the day that all of us feared:
”Help meh!” Lukas said. “Mah cat’s disappeared!”
We panicked, we did, as good friends should do;
We whistled and called and we played the kazoo.
But alas it was all to no end, no avail:
Lukas’s cat had quite fled the pale.
****
Of course, you know, we all kept looking,
But after months of cooing and clucking,
We began to forget—and there was the danger—
What was its size? was it black, white, or ginger?
And recruits would ask, as new recruits do,
Is the story of Lukas’ lost cat really true?
We’d shrug and sigh and shake our heads
And forget to remember, and go back to our beds.
We’d given it up as a hopeless cause
When along came another creature on paws.
And Lukas was joyous; he said, “Here at last!
“This, my friends, is my beautiful cat!”
But soon we found not all was as it seemed.
There was a spy in our meetings—who would have dreamed?
We began to point fingers—we suspected each other
And especially Xonos, who said we were a bother.
But then our Mind Simulation tech disappeared
And we discovered—by Lukas’ beard!—
The cat was the culprit—but surely not she!
Lukas’ cat was as faithful as faithful could be!
But soon the mystery unveiled its true nature,
Someone had planned to duplicate her—
And they had succeeded—this cat that we trusted
Was a clone of the old, just slightly adjusted!
Part automaton, obviously, to act like that.
And that’s the story of the steampunk cat.
****
But don’t despair, we have hope for Lukas
(And cats, if they’ll stop getting infected by Rukas!)
We’re sure that someday he’ll get his cat back
And his inventions will stop falling all out of wack.
THE END

@ariella-newheart Ooo I love it!

My WIP is the story of Alex the spy and Ian the innkeeper, but I really need a solid plot because currently it has none hehe…

But my main work-in-planning is Lillian and Lucy. I’ve had the idea for it since 2011, so… a long time now. Lillian is the main character, she’s 15, and her best friend is Lucy, who’s 13. There’s also a talking horse called Twilight.
There’s a King (unnamed); the commander of the army, Jandar; a rebelling noble called Halim, and a whole sequence involving a dragon….
There was also a red-haired servant lass called something like Moira; the commander of the women’s division of the army—Jocelyn—and the recent addition of Justin, a 20-year old (?) with a yet to be discovered purpose.
As yet, all I have is the characters. The original plot was kinda cliché, but there’s a lot of backstory and unanswered questions about my characters that will be put to good purpose.

@ariella-newheart YOU’RE HERE! EEEEEE!

*hugs my arbitrary ally*

P.S. I’m deeply ashamed to admit this, but I haven’t been on Kingdom Pen for at least a month…I’m too busy 😁 I can’t keep track of everything going on here, so I’ve kinda given up…but tag me, and I will emerge from the shadows to give writerly advice and share personal anecdotes. 😏

P.P.S. You should get a Pinterest account…. if you like…. perchance…mayhaps? 🤓

BOOM *rushes in and claims topic for her own* *threatens those who don’t like the books with her flamethrower* 🔥

I love her writing!! I’ve read A Wrinkle in Time, A Wind in the Door, and A Swiftly Tilting Planet (which is probably my favorite), and I really like her characters! I used to be a bit annoyed by Meg in Wind, but every time I reread it I like it better, and A Swiftly Tilting Planet is really intriguing! I’m also really excited for the movie coming out.

I don’t know what L’Engle’s personal views were, but I appreciated how she seemed to work in Scripture and and references to God and Jesus without sounding cliché or preachy. There’s so much richness and theme throughout too (I did an essay on the themes of good vs. evil and love vs. hate in A Wind in the Door—wow. There’s a lot more than at first glance!)

just don’t bash my books, people… *glares suspiciously around*

#RenandRey

Yeah. I didn’t ship it at all in the Force Awakens, but now I do…SO MUCH

We watched it on opening night, which was super awesome because my sister and I dressed up, plus there were a ton of people, and the whole crowd clapped at various points in the movie…the opening title (of course), the fight between Luke and Kylo, Luke’s death, and OF COURSE THE SUPER AWESOME AMAZING SCENE where Kylo kills Snoke and then him and Rey fight TOGETHER against the Red Guards (who finally prove themselves to be more than living room ornaments)!!!

*sighs* I wish I could keep that moment forever…I was so disappointed when Ren and Rey didn’t end up joining forces… 😢😔

And, surprise, surprise, Snoke was actually a regular size! 😄 I had this theory that he was actually really tiny, like a foot high, and made his hologram really big for the sake of his self-esteem. 😏

The part with Chewbacca and the Porgs was…😆

and Yoda’s line: “Page-turners, they were not!” 🤣
