You’re fine! 😉 I don’t think you went too far, it just gave me a…new perspective.

@godlyfantasy12

It is very like her, which is fitting just…0_o Definitely Dark and surreal. Just a little gruesome… definitely makes it YA.

Cause totally something I couldn’t do in a Middle-grade book, lol.

Also…I don’t know if I’ll ever see tarts the same. XD

@whalekeeper

So you mean that an Active arc is when a character is overcoming their flaws and a passive one is when a character describes their own worth/I-can’t-think-of-a-better-word?

In that case I might only have one Passive character.

Flaws, flaws…how much they riddle life. Well, here’s a spiel. I used to be scared to write a flaw such…[Read more]

*Nods sagely* Mine would be brown also, if Google is correct and Jennifer Trafton doesn’t dye her hair.

Ah, yes, the dragon. I am not sure myself…but there’s only ever be once chance for a dragon no matter how many horses there may be.

I actually do not like them (anymore), which is sad to me (because of the “anymore”).

*Pops a…[Read more]

Why hello there…Rat? Welcome to the Kingdom! I’m Koshka, a middle-grade animal fantasy writer, dabbler in many other genres, with a faint spark of a poet. Somewhere.

Oh, and I’m a history-loving homeschooled-nerd who likes staring at ancient armor and ice cream, but not necessarily together.

Here’s a few ask-the-newbie-questions:

@grcr

Greetings and welcome to the Kingdom of Pen! I’m called Elishavet around here, and I write medieval fantasy too, as well as the random poem, flash fiction, and well, randomness.

So how fantastic is your book world? I have two main WIPs which are neither of them magical – although one does have some fantastic elements like fire captured in…[Read more]

@grcr

Why hello there and welcome to the Kingdom! I’m called Koshka around here. I’m a middle-grade animal fantasy writer with random spurts into a bunch of other genres, who also dabbles in poetry and ice cream. A lot of ice cream.

Now for the ASK-THE-NEWBIE-QUESTIONS!!

1. What’s your favorite author’s natural hair color?
2. If you could own a…

Oh btw, to anyone who is interested I am thinking about starting a RP for animal characters. I have the forum typed up, just not submitted. If there’s enough interest to start it going I will. =)

@freedomwriter76

Thanks for the notes, it helps.

But as for your excerpt, WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO THE BABY?

I mean, I guess he assumes silence and thus saves the lives of those he can. Or at least I hope he is able to because something tells me the guilt associated with “betraying” someone else would be the worst kind of torment to…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76

GAHHHH! *Pounds table*

ThIs! THIS is why I both read and write Middle Grade.

*Table falls apart*

And Hans?

Be glad I can’t get to you through this screen.

*Storms out slamming door*

@freedomwriter76

Narnia? O.O My native land!!!

Peter and Lucy were always my favorites, but I love all the Pevensie siblings. And a whole bunch of other characters like Caspian the Tenth, Puddleglum, Aravis, Shasta, Rilian, Glimfeather, Reepicheep, Digory, Emeth, Jewel, Trumpkin…..(is it really possible to name them all?)

Nevertheless, my…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Hmm, interesting. It makes sense. There are many ways and categories for character development and arcs, which is a good thin as there are many Authors as well.

I think with people saying their characters are both Passive/Active they are actually referring to a character being Active in the A Story and Passive in the B Story. I have…[Read more]

*Blinks*

That would be…utterly terrifying.

And I don’t even know that much about Marvel, but…

*Imagining the chaos*

*Grins*

@freedomwriter76

What’s your crossover? I don’t recognize most of the people, but I haven’t watched many movies so that’s not a surprise.

Wait, is it a Narnia fanfic? 0.0

CoN is one of my absolute all time favorite books series!!!! My siblings and I grew up listening to the Focus on the Family dramatized audio of the Chronicles, which are still…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76

YES. I. AM.

But only for his own protection, so it’s a good thing, right? Of course right.

@freedomwriter76

Thank You!!! It’s an experiment. 😉

Is there anything you liked/thoughts/suggestions?

And yes, I think she is turning to kidnapping. XD

@koshka

Awww, thank you! For reading! My crazy opening! And liking it!

I’m glad you think so. Although I think there are some snotty Alwin chapters ahead. *Wry laugh*

Yes of course. That dreaded next chapter. Don’t worry, it will get worse. 😁😅

@hybridlore

Thank you! That means so much. I’m still trying to figure out my writing voice – or at…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon

AHHHH, beautiful! Symbolic! Lovely! Suspenseful!

Alwin and William are so heartachally adorable. (Especially with you know what in the first chapter. *Glares at evil guard* *quietly stuffs Alwin in secret closet*)

@highscribeofaetherium (your were)

Thanks!! This is my second (third?) Try at the opening.

Hi everyone! I know I’ve been floating about in shadowy silence, so I’m sorry if I haven’t commented on some of y’all’s excellent work. Maybe I’ll be able to go back and give some thoughts as I’ve really enjoyed reading them.

Anyway, now that long and…[Read more]
