Kathleen replied to the topic Why do you write? in the forum Topic of the Week 5 years ago
It wasn’t too long at all! Your answers have made me see even more how wonderful writing can be. It’s pretty amazing all the things writing can do. I think writing stories is even more fun and healing than reading them.
It’s pretty dope right? Being to write all the stories that you wish existed. I mean it’s not easy and…[Read more]

Kathleen replied to the topic Why do you write? in the forum Topic of the Week 5 years ago
Ooo, I really like that answer. Sometimes it can be really hard to communicate verbally. And when you do, you rarely get past the shallow stuff. But with writing, you can cut out all that nonsense and get straight to the point. I think writing, whether that be in stories, poetry, or song lyrics, is one of the best forms of…[Read more]

Katherine replied to the topic Why do you write? in the forum Topic of the Week 5 years ago
Why do I write? Easy answer, I enjoy it and don’t want a boring job. Therefore, I’m trying to make writing my career.
Okay, here’s a better answer: I constantly get stories ideas, and I don’t want them to just simply stay in my brain. Plus, I’m very creative and writing is a creative outlet.
I’m just still trying to figure out if I…[Read more] -

@elfwing Hahaha! I loveee Celine Dion’s ‘My heart will go on’, so I’ll definitely give those a try!! Personally, I find it hard to write with actual songs. I focus easier with instrumental songs. That can vary quite a bit though XD I listen to lofi, classical, indie, gospel instrumentals, Chinese or Irish instrumental folk songs, movie…[Read more]

@kathleenramm I love your answer to the question! I have to say that I write for very much the same reasons haha. And no, your answer wasn’t too long at all!! It was beautiful!!
When I first started writing, it was for school, because I had to. I hated writing though. I used to think it was boring, but then I realised that all of the things I…[Read more]

Lin replied to the topic Why do you write? in the forum Topic of the Week 5 years ago
@kathleenramm Deep question, deep question. As a kid my sister was the one who tried out writing first, and I said that I didn’t think I’d ever want to write, just read stories. Well, one day I grew bored of all the books I read, and decided to write my own.
And now I’m here and hoooooo boi I don’t know if I’m living a nightmare or the dream…[Read more]

Why do you write?
I started writing because my older siblings wrote a lot and I thought it looked fun, but the reason why I write now has evolved quite a lot from that.Yeah, writing is still really fun, but writing has become so much more than that. Stories have helped me understand myself more, the world more, people more, and have helped me…[Read more]

People said that I should use tree sap instead of tar and feathers.
Even though it was a fictional comedy, and I was like 8.
I’m still salty.

Kathleen replied to the topic Say and think in the forum Poetry Critiques 5 years ago
This poem makes me think of a particular person in my life. Our relationship has been really complicated and recently some terrible things have happened causing me to only be able to have shallow conversations with them despite me knowing them my entire life. I have so many things I desperately want to ask them and tell them, but…[Read more]

Kathleen replied to the topic What's the harshest critique you've ever received about your writing? in the forum Topic of the Week 5 years ago
Yeah, heavy themes can be really hard to write well.
But I do really like the ending of your story with the hero scarifying himself at the end. It makes the theme hit so much harder. I barely know anything about your story, but I can see how the theme and character arc might feel half-hearted without him sacrificing himself…[Read more]

Kathleen replied to the topic Salvete scriptores! in the forum Start HERE 5 years ago
Favorite time period? Hmmm… Probably the ancient time period. I definitely would never want to live in that time, but there are so many cool things to learn (and steal for writing purposes) from.
What’s something from history that’s given you a memorable story idea?
Well, I guess I usually come off as pretty quite, introverted,…[Read more]
