Thank you so much for tagging me, I really appreciate it:) I think this is amazing, but sadly, I won’t be able to because of time shortages:( Perhaps I can join in now and then though? This is a fantastic idea:D

@nanisnook

Oh yes, and here is a quote that I reference all the time and hope you find helpful:)

@nanisnook

I am sorry for being late to this topic, but you’re definitely not the only one who’s wanted to chuck everything in the garage. I myself probably feel like doing that almost every other week since I often feel like my writing is scrambled, unclear, or just plain unsalvageable. And we’re not alone either, one of the greatest write…[Read more]

@milena

Hi Milena! Welcome to Kingdom Pen! I’m Abigail by the way and you write poetry? That’s awesome! 😀 Poetry is one of my very favorite things to write and there’s always so many fun formats and freedom with it. Do you write structured or freestyle poetry? Do you have a favorite poem or poet?

Once again, a hearty welcome:D It’s amazing to…[Read more]

@ariel-f

Definitely, Ceasefire is an amazing song:D It’s awesome to meet you too!

@elfwing

Hi Elfwing! I am really sorry about this late reply, and I truly appreciate your patience with me here:)
Ooh, I LOVE the dynamics you created with the griffons and the firebirds. That’s extremely creative and intriguing! 😀
*High fives* That’s awesome! Not too many writers use omniscient, so that’s cool that you do as well. Three side…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

Hi Joy! Sorry for being late here, but yes! I understand exactly what you’re feeling about your writing. I don’t think my writing goes as heavy and deep as yours, but I often delve into deep themes, allegories, and topics. So you aren’t alone one bit and I concur with @lewilliam s when she says we’re always growing and learning. And…[Read more]

@iluvhim18

Thank you for tagging me:D This topic sounds so amazing and I’d love to participate! 😀

Filip folded his arms defensively, “now hold up just one second you stubborn headed snowdrift, I have legitimate reasons as to just why I let the rabbit go.”

@writerlexi1216

Hi Alexa! (Btw, I don’t think I ever asked you, do you like Lexi or Alexa better? Either is 100% awesome. I was just wondering:)

Don’t worry about it at all:) And I agree sophomore is really tough to wrap up, but that’s awesome that you did last week! 😀 Relief isn’t it? I mean, afterward, there’s always so much more time for…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

I’m a bit late to this topic and everyone else had great advice, but I just decided to pitch in my thoughts  just in case it can help at all. 🙂

My best advice for handling darker, grittier things, is not the most helpful advice because a lot of people can’t do it, but to have some kinda first hand experience with it, or be really…[Read more]

@milena

Hi! Awesome to have you!

I’ve recently been getting into poetry, but haven’t tried writing any myself. What has been the inspiration for your latest poem?

I love writing short stories! Like Jodi, I’ve been trying to write at least one a month, however the past few days I feel like the creative writing part of my brain has taken a…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

Oooh, new story!!!

Oh, yeah, this happens allllll the time. And when it happens for me, it’s pretty awful, ’cause I get bored REALLY EASILY in stories. which may or may not explain why I was insane enough to have a fight scene on PAGE SEVEN in one of my novels *sheepish grin*

Well, this is the best advice I’ve EVER heard when it…[Read more]

@joy-caroline Murder someone.

Well, or badly injure someone. Is what I do. I’m assuming, however, that your story isn’t of the suitable genre. But yeah, what Jenna said. Keep writing by looking forward to whatever’s coming. Or maybe spice things up by doing something unexpected. Or develop who you thought was gonna be a minor character. Whatever…[Read more]

@nanisnook

Ooof, sorry it took me forever to get here. I’ve just not had the time to be very active on KP liked I’d wish. :,(

Anyway, the biggest thing is seriously DON’T COMPARE. I always get soooo down on me and my writing whenever I start comparing my sloppy, first draft to my favorite novels ever. But then I have to remember that you know…[Read more]

@milena Hello and welcome to the Kingdom of Pen! I’m Elizabeth; it’s so nice to meet you!:)

Poetry is so cool!! You should definitely submit some–I’d love to read some of your work:D Ah yes, films and music are such great places for inspiration. Do you have any particular favorites (films or music)? For me, I tend to gravitate towards a…[Read more]

@milena Hi there! Welcome to Kingdom Pen! I hope you have an awesome time here! I’m Linyang, one of the members here!

Ah, I used to write a ton of poetry! I’m looking forward to seeing whatever you share!

Short stories are fun! And I totally relate to finding inspiration everywhere. What are some of your favorite movies/books/songs?

@nanisnook Ah, sorry to hear you’re feeling like this! I guess here are my tips:

• Read terrible writing
• Daydream about your writing dreams
• Receive validation
• Start something new
• Take a break

Hope these help!

@kathleenramm

I have to agree with you about the Pegasus, honestly! I’ve always adored Pegasi and would love to include one in a story someday. And yes, I’m sure they would make interesting writing companions XD Who wouldn’t want to have a cup of coffee with a Pegasus during a writing session? I know I would!:)

However, I think I would choose a…[Read more]

@gracie-j

Of course it did!! And yes, I probably will now that you’ve definitely helped me outline it more in-depth!!:) Ahh, yes it most certainly does!! *sighs of relief* Haha, a good smack across the face, I thought, fit Caira’s character very well. XD. Yes, yes, of course! I’d love to have you critique it for me, only if you wouldn’t mind!:)…[Read more]
