@elanor I’ve been maybe writing 5-6 years? What about you?

Oo, yes, those books are really awesome! I enjoy being taken for a ride where I don’t know what will happen.

@lydia-s Thank you! Found it on Pinterest!

@elanor I play piano and do ballet! I write mainly crime, fantasy, and school life stories.

@elfwing Ey thanks! I’ll take a look at it soon!

@elanor

Hi! It’s awesome to have you! I’m Kathleen, and I totally understand the struggle of getting the story in your head out some what readable on paper. XD But shifting my focus on the characters and writing the story from their eyes and mind always helps me a lot.

It’s so cool all the worldbuilding you did for your story. Does worldbuilding…[Read more]

@elfwing Hi! My name’s Grace (you can call me Kadotake if you want though, it’s my online alias 😄). Great to have you here on the forum! Ahh, a fellow Tolkienite!! I love LoTR and The Hobbit (ahh but I’m still stuck like 3/4 of the way through the Two Towers since it’s so long. Hngh. 🥲) And- WHAT? A FELLOW DUCK PERSON??? I have quite a few ducks,…[Read more]

@elanor Whoa, that’s so cool! You must have an awesome collection!

@lydia-s I’m looking to go to college for youth ministry and worship arts, but I wasn’t planning on going anywhere until I stumbled across the perfect college while doing research for a book. XD When I was looking at writing as my only thing, I was like @jenwriter17 and planned to learn about writing by writing and from fiction-specific r…[Read more]

@elfwing Ahh…the forum does that sometimes. It’s quite annoying.

I have betta fish! One’s called Dennis, the other called Festus. They’re quite cute.

@anika123 Me? I’m old…I can handle some mature stuff. I like crime, mainly. But also sad stories.

@elanor Lovely movie choices! And yes, Hallmark, does, uh, kind of suck. At least for me.

Those desserts sound delicious! And vanilla is seriously good.

Oo, rocks! What’s the most interesting rock that you have?

@ariel-f Hello Ariel!! Welcome to Kingdom Pen! I’m Elizabeth:D

Your WIP sounds so cool!!! How long have you had the idea for it?

I saw that you like listening to Christian music (for King and Country is an excellent choice, btw). Have you heard of Tenth Avenue North?

Question for you: what’s your favorite beverage? (Tea, coffee, lemonade,…[Read more]

@annika123 Hello and welcome to the Kingdom of Pen! I’m Elizabeth, and it’s so very nice to meet you:D That’s so cool you like writing middle-grade! It’s such an underappreciated genre, tbh. Do you like reading in the same genre?

@elfwing Hello and welcome to the Kingdom of Pen! I’m Elizabeth, and it’s so very nice to meet you!

Ah yes, a fellow homeschooler and Tolkienite! *fistbump* Wow, your Tolkien list is impressive! I own the Book of Unfinished Tales, but haven’t gotten around to reading it yet. *shakes fist at homework*

Awww, Yoshi is such a cute name for a…[Read more]

@lydia-s Eyyy congratulations on finishing high school!!!! That’s such an accomplishment! *throws confetti everywhere*

For me, I’m planning on pursuing writing part-time, as I balance work, homemaking, etc. Personally, I went the college route–I actually just graduated with a BA in English literally a week and a half ago, so that’s been a bit…[Read more]

@anika123 Oh, nice! Any shows you would recommend?

@lydia-s I’m glad to hear you love writing so much! And ey, soon to be graduates unite!

Me, I’m going to college for computer science, actually. With a minor in music. I’m not planning on doing any writing classes. I’m hoping to write a lot in my free time, and the dream is to be able to quit my job and become a full-time writer before 30. I feel…[Read more]

@ariel-f Hi Ariel! Nice to meet you! I’m Linyang, though you can call me Lin, if you’d like. Welcome to the Kingdom!

I love wolves, music, and reading as well! Since you write science fiction, are there any sci-fi books you would recommend me?

Your story sounds awesome! Can’t wait to hear more about it.

Oh, by the way, do you like pineapple on…[Read more]

@elanor Dragons! I love dragons! Nice to meet you, by the way! I’m Linyang, but most here call me Lin! Lovely to make your acquaintance!

As @joy-caroline has beaten me to some of my common welcoming questions, I’ll greet you with these:

1. What are some of your favorite movies?

2. Any particularly delectable desserts you’ve tried before?

3.…[Read more]
