@graciegirl *sigh* I know. I’m so close.

@catwing Those are great symbols for a time travel cover, however, they don’t insert very naturally into a title. Except maybe gears.

@TheAcornMan The naval history is the BEST. Have you seen the A&E mini-series Horatio Hornblower? If that period nautical stuff is something you like you’d probably love that. It’s one of my favorite series.
Heh…the main one that comes to mind (and another more minor one) was a rip-off from the Viking Quest book series by Lois Walfrid…[Read more]

@Ethryndal I think you’ve gotten the point by now: DO IT. 😛

I am actually in the middle of a break right now and, yes, it’s a little terrifying because, whoa, I haven’t taken a break from outlining in like, forever. XD But it is super freeing to start a new idea where you don’t have boundaries like you said. And I also am…[Read more]

@Mariposa Good luck with the article! <3

Eww, yeah, I didn’t care much for The Good Dinosaur either. XD The animation was amazing but the story….not so much?
Inside Out and Up are some of my favorites too! But I haven’t seen Up in soooo long. *cries* My list of movies I need to rewatch has grown exponentially this past week it seems. 😛 And I…[Read more]

@Catwing It would be if those were in his book… 😛 His time-travel element isn’t like that though…

@Glitter-Ocelot Welcome to the Kingdom!!!

(*pokes head out of glitter* @Emily Oh hey fellow ENFJ. *high-five*)

@Daeus Oh right, To Soar ON Eagles. It didn’t give me any Native American vibes till Kate mentioned it (thanks a lot Kate. XD) but I don’t think it’s the best one anyway. Yet.

@Daeus So far I agree with the general crowd. Those first three, eh…..not really feeling it.

However, The Man Who Came Back….

I hear an echo of that geeky squeal I give when something in a story is totally awesome.

(In comprehensible English: what Kate said. That’s more like it. I don’t think that one necessarily though.) 😛

@daughteroftheking @jane-maree @@salome01w4g @graciegirl @catwing

Howdy. I’m planning to write for the next hour. I’ll probably get interrupted and have to leave for a time, but I’m going to do my best.

@Glitter-Ocelot GLITTER! *reverberating cackles* I am the glitter elf of the forum, and I am pleased to welcome you here. *drowns the forum in glitter* Believe me, the fact that you stated your MBTI type right off the bat has automatically endeared you to the hearts of half our population. Me, on the other hand… I’m endeared by the nerrrrrrrd.…[Read more]

@Emily The part of my brain that is so done with life is strongly suggesting I abandon everything and go live by the ocean and eat chocolate for the rest of my days. However, the sentimental side of my brain loves this book and totally agrees with you. So yeah, thanks. I hope my sanity is recoverable. 😀

(@Emma-Flournoy, this is a banner day. My…[Read more]

And yes sometimes we do imitate Americans but are far more likely to imitate the Russian accent.

Russian accent? That is beyond cool. XD
@theacornman

I am starting to get into a really bad habit of not reading. I kinda need to be kicked for it lol.

I may or may not be guilty of this also. Maybe I should melt my own chair.
@theacornman

@dragon-snapper Yes, I like it too. Unfortunately, I find there’s a movie under that title and two novels. None of them seem popular at all, especially not the novels, but it would still be annoying if they showed up when someone searched for my book. I’m still keeping it in mind because if someone sees the title and goes “ooh”, that’s the most…[Read more]

@daeus Ooh, I like that…although it is a little long. Of course, the title ‘The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe’ is long too. XD Maybe instead of ‘who’ you could say ‘that’….I don’t know…weird Snapper preferences.

@glitter-ocelot Hi hi hi! Welcome to KP!

Er, yes @josiahdeboer We does want to know the story behind your name??? *glances between the two of you* *shrugs* 😛

I am Dragon Snapper, both a dragon and a Samwise Gamgee and a writer and a lover of sci-fi and fantasy and a million other things.

Anyway, glad to have you here! 😀

@ethryndal Oh yeah. Taking a break from something like that is very good. Not only do you want to prevent yourself from a burnout, but also, it can lead to something even better, like what @mariposa said. I’ve done that multiple times. Planned out a story, begun writing it, then stopped. In fact, I have more than thirty stories in my files that…[Read more]

@Ethryndal do it. I plead horribly guilty of workaholism, but more and more I’ve come to value re-charging and taking a step back for a change of perspective.
I strongly do not recommend trashing the story you have, but I understand where you’re coming from. My current WIP (yeah, that one) has been going for three years and it drives me bonkers…[Read more]
