@kathleenramm That’s such a fun story!

Other than people that would make good characters…

On the first day of one of my classes this year I was heading in doors to the place where we hold our co-op, and anyways, while I was still outside in the parking lot, this car just drove by in front of my, crunching this safety cone (which are…[Read more]

@gracie-j Oooh this looks so fun!!! I just started a new job, so no promises, but I maaaaaay try to throw my hat in the ring! Either way, I’m looking forward to reading the winner’s story! 😀

@godlyfantasy12 Awesome! Good luck with the rest of it!

@nanisnook

Yeah, I get what you mean. Almost anything can be easier or harder depending on the situation.

Have you ever based characters on other people in your life?

@sami-eastwood That synopsis sounds awesome! I would love to read a book about that!

Disaster movies are certainly unique. I don’t usually go to watch them but I have watched several. And those are an awesome choice of books!

Ah, I’ve heard of ranch dressing on pizza, though I have yet to try it! I will have to, though!

@nanisnook I usually end up procrastinating for a week and regretting it, but yeah I usually push on through instead of skipping around.

@nanisnook

For me? I always put the scene in the parenthesis (perhaps tell what happens in a couple of sentences) and then just move on.

Well, most of the time I just push right through it, but if a scene’s coming up and I don’t know what’s gonna happen AND I just don’t feel like writing it, I’ll just put: something really cool happens and move on. I’ve only ever done that once, tho, so it’s no a super common thing for me. 😉

@ariel-f

Camille can make you spill all your secrets and publish them? Woah, she’s on a another level. Not necessarily a higher one but definitely a different one. XD

@nanisnook

It’s cool how you modeled Tess after yourself! It would be very interesting going to brunch with someone very similar to yourself.

Just a bit curious, do you find it…[Read more]

@gracie-j

So cool! I’m a bit caught up in the throws of my novel, but I can’t wait to read all the winners!

@faith-q

Hi! Welcome to the forum! I’m Kathleen and it’s awesome to have you!

Seven siblings! I’m not too far behind with six. Though, at the moment it kinda feels like I only have three since the rest moved out. XD

It’s so cool that your learning three languages! My sister sister is fluent in Korean and Japanese, so she really inspires me to…[Read more]

@faith-q Hi there! Welcome to Kingdom Pen! I’m Linyang, though most folks here just call me Lin. Pleasure to make your acquaintance!

That is a lot of siblings! It must be a fun family!

Those are a lot of languages! I’m currently trying to learn Japanese when I can.

@sami-eastwood Hello Sami!! I’m Elizabeth, and it’s so very nice to meet you! Would you care for a cup of virtual tea? Or are you more of a virtual coffee person?

Eyy, a fellow twenty-something-er! *fistbump* And whoa, six years is a long time to be writing!

When you aren’t writing, what kind of things do you like to do for fun?

It’s so nice to…[Read more]
