Here’s an update on where we are at working on the language:

@leon-fleming and I have identified some sounds to use in our language. Those are still open to discussion and are on page 5 of this Google Doc.

At this point, I think we’re ready to work on two things simultaneously:

1. Creating an alphabet/visual representation/writing…[Read more]

I guess conflicting loyalties would be the best way I can think of to describe it. 😛

Ah, beautiful topic idea! Love it. And I agree, this topic is so one that brings together the WIP and clenches it in all the awesome ways. XD

I don’t have one particular theme in my current WIP, Out of the Ashes. More like a combination of a bunch of them that all intertwine and get really confusing- which I guess becomes much of the theme…[Read more]

Oooooh, glad you made this topic.

I honestly think that a good theme is one of the main things that makes a story memorable.

Loyalty is definitely something that can be explored in a story a lot of different ways. It can get pretty deep and complicated!

I also agree that showing both sides of the theme makes it much more thought…[Read more]

I sometimes write poetry. I’ve got a lot of good feedback from any poetry I have written but I don’t like doing it much. XD

@lrc

Gotcha, sounds right…

I got misty eyes as I said farewell!

Do the letters LRC stand for anything in particular? Are they just your initials?

The amount I have varies per day but it’s usually between 15 and 25. And lol yes, they are so tiring!

Aw cats are awesome too! I don’t think I’ll ever have one of my own because my dogs are not keen on them, but I love my friends’ cats. Just curious, what breed is it?

Yes! I’d love to read some of your writing and give some of my thoughts!

Maybe sometime in the future you could read some of mine as well if you want to. The more critiques the better!

Here’s my email: Kjoy2803@gmail.com

Oh that’s awesome! And it seriously makes my job as a trainer so much easier (no joke, so many people underestimate the importance of things breeders do or don’t do). Are you looking at becoming a dog trainer for a career?

Well, for my job I mostly work with puppies 8-20ish weeks old. There’s a lot of diversity in the breeds I work with,…[Read more]

When it comes to writing, reading bad books is a lot of the time more motivating than reading good ones!

It’s good to know that someone is doing that time period justice.

I would love to be a beta reader/writer pal if you ever need one!

Though I tend  have a lot of thoughts when it comes to books. I can read one page and write a whole…[Read more]

Basically the parts they take out are major history lessons, and leave the actual story. Lol.

Lol, I get it. I’m just unusually stubborn, in a lot of areas. 😛 I would say that an abridged version is acceptable, but you just won’t have the prestige of being able to say that you read the whole version. XD

*downcast eyes* Oh, yes, I enjoyed it! Lol. Thx. 🙂

@lrc

Okay, that makes sense. I abbreviate when possible as well, like my current WIP Out of the Ashes– actually it was my sisters who first started calling it OOTA, and it stuck. XD!

Oh, cool! Yeah, that’s about the time when I’m gonna have to quit writing for a few months. XD

Oh that’s awesome! Is there a particular reason you do it? Golden retrievers are awesome too. I work at a puppy Daycare and we get heaps!

Your apology is fully accepted! I hope you look back on your time as a Bumbling Henchmen with fond memories. You were a very admirable Henchman!

@leon-fleming

How did you find the book of sacred quests?!  Asmundur the Bombastic is the quest giver! Did he happen to lend you his book of quests? What did you do to earn such an…[Read more]

Wow! 14 book saga?!

Do you ever plan on publishing any of your books? It sounds like you write the kind of stories that I would really like to read!

Characters and relationships are EVERYTHING to me in a story.

And tbh it gets harder and harder to find a good books these days. It would be awesome if you published them one day. 😀

Ah, nice topic choices! XD And what is WotR?

Yas, you found it! *wipes sweat off brow*

Man, your WIPs still sound so cool. XD And you say you have computer access at 7 pm, but that may or may not help depending upon where you live. 😛 I’m in north Idaho, so Pacific time zone, but a bunch of people are on the other side of the US. Or not in the US. XD But if we were on here at the same…[Read more]

Argh, yes! My goodness, yes. Absolute truth right there.

New topic? Awesome question. It’s sorta weird, really. Lol. If you’re on KP homepage, if you hover over the “forum” dropdown, just click on the “forum” instead of the “join the community” or “recent topics” dropdowns. That’ll take you to a page of topic groups, click on a group, it’ll…[Read more]

Aha, this is true! What kind of a network, other than obviously secret…except among ourselves?…were you thinking of forming? Covert pen operations, eh. XD

Haha. Water fountain, though? XD

@lrc

Yeah, lol, again the dangerous question! I hate trying to describe them. 😛 They’re so much better than my puny, skinny pieces. XD Plus I’m writing right now, and don’t feel like describing what I’m writing. Lol! I’ll copy and paste a bit, though…and here’s a link to my intro topic, which is…[Read more]

Oh yes, m’dear you have my wholehearted support, ’tis for sure! I’ve gone the round on a lot of fronts before. XD

Lol, yep, I get it. I got into SE a lot, but I knew about KP before I ever even joined SE, and always felt a part of it more than SE. Lol. I mean, I ended up an Assistant Guildmaster among other things, and spent a lot of time…[Read more]

Medieval England, huh? ‘Round about the 14oos? Interesting, that.

What’s it like over there? Can you teach me how to time travel too? It would be very beneficial, I would think, for spying research, you know?

I’m curious, what time periods are your HF set in?

I always wanted to write Historical Fiction. But writing HF…[Read more]

Welcome to the forum fellow past KP stalker!

(Yes, I too was a KP stalker only until recently.)

What your WIPs about?

Ah yes, I was wondering that about @leon-fleming as well. TBH I was skeptical at first if his name was even real. It sounds like a name of a protagonist in a fantasy novel. (In a good way of course.)

Glad you finally…[Read more]

*huffs* Ugh. I’ll shelve this whole thought for now. XD

@devastate-lasting  @jenwriter17

XD You guys are awesome.

@shannoncv

That is SO cool. If it actually works…? I totally have no idea how to even help with that, though. Lol.

@erinramm

Love it!! I have no clue what IPA charts or the lot are, but it still sounds awesome.…[Read more]
