The Premise to your WIP sound interesting! Do you have any favorite characters from the novel yet?
Also, flying is an awesome choice. I’d probably choose the same thing. If I could fly, I’d probably hang out on rooftops and trees all the time, haha.

Ugh, I could go on forever with characters too, haha.
Out of all the character you’ve created, do you have one you know the best?
Yo, I’m not even surprised that people always compliment you on your pros. It’s one of a kind.
Was pros something that came naturally to you or did you have to work on…[Read more]

What’s your biggest strength and weakness as a writer?
For me, probably my biggest weakness is staying consistent. I usually write a bunch all at once and then ghost my story for weeks until my schedule is a bit more relaxed or I have a sudden burst of motivation and disregard sleep almost entirely, haha.So yeah, that’s something I’ve struggled…[Read more]

Haha, yeah, I can relate. But the stranger the story the more fun it is to write right?
Do you have a favorite of all the strange stories you’ve written?
That does sound like an really strange, but interesting book, haha.
My siblings and I often joke about certain things we have, do, or say that could be taken way out…[Read more]

What’s the strangest book you’ve ever read? Did you like it? Why or why not?
Probably the strangest book I’ve ever read was a book I read awhile ago… Alice in Wonderland.Take everything about a normal book then make it the complete opposite. That’s Alice in Wonderland for you.
One of my favorite things about this book is it’s a metaphor for…[Read more]

Mirabelle crossed her arms “Wait, let me get this straight; your double ganger was blackmailing you and you were appeasing him with Chipotle?”
Milo’s double ganger’s smile widened “Yo, your sister is smart lol.”
“She’s ten, of course she’s smart; have you never met a ten year old before?”

Kathleen replied to the topic Have you ever written a story with multiple POV? in the forum Topic of the Week 3 years, 2 months ago
Yeah, I really like how adding multiple POV you can explore different avenues of the story while adding a new flavor to the narrative.
What the most POV you’ve ever had in one story?
It’s really cool how you split up POV with your sister like that! My siblings and I might do that in the future, but right now…[Read more]

Have you ever written a story with multiple POV?                                                       If so, how did it go? And if not, why?
I usually write in one POV, because I can really hone in and focus on that character and their thought process, voice, feelings, etc.
But there is o…[Read more]

Fear rippled through my body and I grabbed the closest thing in reach (which happened to be a mostly empty domino’s pizza box) and chucked it at the figure.
The pizza box bounced harmlessly off the figure’s back, and it spun around Poptart box still in hand.
My heart dropped to my feet; that figure… that person… that thing, was me.

I’m super late, but I just wanted to say that I love your most recent character sketch!! You can really get an idea of what kind of character he is by looking at it.
How long have you been doing character illustrations? And did you learn from anyone?

Oof. I know what that’s like. It’s so rare for a series to be good the whole way through.
That sounds like a really interesting series! But yeah, I get what you mean by it getting tricky with Christian Theology and stuff. Like you don’t want people to have the wrong idea of the biblical characters in the story, but…[Read more]

How would you rewrite your least favorite novel?
One of the least favorite books I’ve ever read is Dreamlander by K.M. Weiland.So, if I was rewriting it, the first thing I would change is the world. It makes such little sense that it actually makes me kinda angry. Which I know, it’s sound weird, but it’s true.
The premise that there are two…[Read more]

Mirabelle stepped back and crossed her arms.
“Fine by me; you’d make a better first course for whatever is in there anyway.”
I grinned back at her and opened the kitchen door.

So I thought it would be pretty fun to write and impromptu story together!
Basically how it’ll work is someone (in this case me) will write the first three sentence to a story and the person who replies back next will write the next three sentences to the story, and it’ll continue like that until we have a full blown story!
RULES:

Kathleen replied to the topic Why do you write? in the forum Topic of the Week 3 years, 2 months ago
Those are wonderful reasons. Writing can be a way to glorify God and help others, while also strengthening and healing ourselves.
Have these two things always been your reason for writing, or did it become that later on?
That’s awesome! Do you and your cousin live close, or do you plan it out virtually?…[Read more]
