I have an awkward conversation whenever someone asks me “so, what’s your book about?” I’m like….uhh. I used to start out by saying “it’s fantasy”. Until my mom said that for her generation it meant a totally different (not so great) thing. O_O Whoops. So now I can say it’s fiction. *laughs* I guess I’m getting a *little* better at saying what…[Read more]

Welcome! @kaya-young Ooh, some of your favorite authors are mine as well. I love Elizabeth George Speare and CS Lewis.

I really love your name. It’s so pretty.

What’s your favorite color?

Have you read the Ilyon Chronicles, or Lord of the Rings? They’re both really good. Ohh, and how about Chuck Black? If you’re a fantasy fan, I think you would…[Read more]

Welcome! @aviantrail Do you have many siblings? I have four younger ones. What’s your favorite color?

@jenwriter17 Thank you! I meant to tell you that I found it before. 😉 It was actually published here on KP a while ago, I think. And it’s really helpful. I just reread it. There’s so much to learn.

@that_writer_girl_99 Kind of, I guess. *face desks* Actually, tbh, no. Not really. I’m still figuring it out. But more, what I’m wrestling through now, is actually showing the theme is a way that’s not preachy. I’ve decided not to have God actually in the story, but to try to portray it as a reflection of his glory. This is tough. XD But I’m…[Read more]

I’m up for it if you still need readers, @Daeus. I know you’ve already got a lot of people, so if not, that’s totally fine.

Hello! And welcome, @pickupyourpenandwrite. I’m a newbie here too. 😉 This place is awesome. What are some of your favorite books and/or authors?

@rochellaine I didn’t know there was a 1940 Pride and Prejudice! That sounds totally awesome. I’ve watched the two other versions. 🙂

I love your name, btw. One of my good friends is named Elizabeth.…[Read more]

*laughs* I didn’t, so good for you!

O_O @clairec I know I’m just popping in here, but did you have  to dissect a fish? We did that last year  for school. Not the greatest experience.

Oh that’s really cool, @sleepwalkingmk If you’re ever back here on furlough, it would be awesome to meet. 😉

Here’s more to it too. The part I had forgotten. XD

Oh dear. Must I explain this again? XD my brother was joking about how YWW is kinda like BWW (buffalo wild wings) and you know how they call that BDubs. So he came up with YDubs, I happened to mention that on my intro post, and it stuck XD

@sleepwalkingmk I guess so. 😉 I think it helped that Marit was telling you that she would try to have the chapter up before you went to bed.  I’m from New Jersey, and that’s where we currently are living. Where are you from?

@emma-flournoy Now you understand why it’s  so disappointing. *sobs* Yeah, you’ll love Nellie’s wedding. And the i…[Read more]

@clairec Thanks for the welcome! Y’all make me feel so at home, and I love it. 🙂

@jenwriter17 Thank you! I was really excited and surprised that I was in the newsletter. 😉 Yes, writing has definitely made much more of an observer. I love it.

@emilyd Oh cool! I love an Australian accent. 😉 I’m not really into mystery, so not many. XD When I…[Read more]

@atisastarrynight I personally love flashbacks, and I think they can be great if done well. I’m thinking of a certain person who is really good at doing this, but isn’t on KP, unfortunately. 🙁

But yes, have something trigger a memory. Keep it short. You definitely don’t have to info dump. Just let your character remember something, but not all…[Read more]

@waterlily Oh wow. This sounds so awesome. I would totally read this.

@sleepwalkingmk oh HEY ADORA!!! So cool to see you here! And you’re an MK? Somehow I totally missed that before. XD

@itisastarrynight that sounds way too awesome! I love that idea!
