Welcome to the KP forum!
Ah, a pineapple pizza lover and a homeschooler! I am also both, though I have yet to graduate. I am also a HUGE fan of Narnia and The Green Ember (#Helmer4ever), and I do enjoy The Wingfeather Saga, though I have yet to finish it.Your story idea sounds awesome!!! I hope you find this forum and the articles and…[Read more]

@joy-caroline
Hey, JC! So, I am, Lord willing, going to go into the Biblical fantasy genre with my next WIP. As a fellow writer in that genre, I was wondering if you had any favorite websites, documentaries, or books that you found particularly helpful in finding out what daily life and the Jewish religion of that day was like. Any researching…[Read more] -

Hey, Ella!!! How are you doing? I’m doing great; super happy to have more free time now that 4H is winding down. 😀
So, lately, I haven’t been doing much writing, due to my adventures with my 4H projects. Mostly, I’ve been working on a book I’ve been writing for my sister. I’ll probably continue in that, but a bit more part-time. I have one other…[Read more]-
Heyyy! No problemo! Ooo, nice, I’m glad that you can work on something for your sis. I love doing stuff like that. You got this, girl! You’ll probably get your novel done by next month!! 😉
I’m good, just tryna keep my writing schedule straight. My normal schedule has been up and down because of a packed week, then an injury, so all I’ve…[Read more]-
Aww, thanks for all the encouragement!
Oof… That’s no fun. 🙁 I hope you heal soon! <333

Oh, goodness… I believe I win the prize for the latest response ever… *facepalm* I’m so sorry for the delayed answer, but thank you so much for doing this!!!!!! I’ve saved the collage and I’m going to send it to my co-author! 🙂 (As a side note, that snake picture is absolutely PERFECT.) I really appreciate all the work you put…[Read more]

Hey, girl! Just wanted to let you know that yours truly is one of your devoted blog readers. 😀 I read the novelette you posted, and it was awesome!!! I love the creatures you’ve invented, and Riure is a wonderful character! Can’t wait to read the short story and, someday, The Keepers of the Nine. 🙂
God bless! Keep writing! <333-
Yay, I’m glad you liked it!!
(Yeah… I stuck her in a character castle in Story Embers and then decided I couldn’t just let her appear for a few chapters in the book. So somehow she got her own novelette? XD)-
Oh, and I read your short story too! Also beautiful! I never thought of the wind like that…

I’m about to start a record for the latest appearance on a comment thread… *facepalm*
This is such a fun idea!!! I love the idea of a hedgehog too. So cute and yet, so dangerous. As for my ideas, I think a lemur would be lovely. Perhaps a moose or a mole or a horde of ants as well. Or a hyena. Or maybe even a kangaroo!
If I ever…[Read more]

Hello, fellow Kapeefers! *waves awkwardly*
So, I am actually still alive. I know that my past messaging history seems to indicate that I fell off the face of the planet, but I am still very much here. However, over the summer, I entered the world of adulthood and got a job. Between that and 4H, I haven’t had a whole lot of spare time for…[Read more]-
Hey Lydia! Welcome back! And oof, I know, right? Life seems to get so busy the older you get…

I completely agree… Why is growing up so hard?! *sniff* 😛-

@lydia-s Hi, Lydia!!! Congrats on entering adulthood!!!🥳 I hope you’ve been having a great summer!!!!!

@mkfairygirl
Thanks! I just wish it would’ve happened AFTER I turned 18… *moans* lol 😛
It’s been going well! Incredibly busy though. How about you?-
HEH WHAT?!?! YOU’RE EIGHTEEN!?!?!? WHY ARE YOU SO OLD?!

Oh wait. Maybe I’m reading this wrong. XD *facepalm*

(Since it seems I can’t edit that comment, I figure this is the next best option) That sentence made sense in my head but not so much in real life… Gonna rephrase it… *facepalm*
I wish I would’ve entered adulthood after turning 18… Unfortunately, it happened at 16. Getting a job was a jerk into reality. 😛-
@lydia-s Oof, I know, adulthood comes just too fast.😜
My summer’s been great!! I’ve been swimming a good bit and really enjoying it!! 🙂-
@mkfairygirl
Agreed!
Oh, awesome! Glad you’ve been having a good summer. 😀

P.S. What does kapeefer mean?

@keilah-h
Hi! I’ve been great! Just way too busy. 🙂
I hope you found a name for your character, btw. It can be so hard to find the perfect name sometimes. 🙁
So, a Kapeefer is something from the old KP Cinema videos (if you go to the video archives, they’re one page back). It stands for ‘Kingdom Pen fan,’ like Keeper, but with an ‘f’ because of…[Read more]-
Cool. And if you mean my dragon character, yes I found a name for her! Someone suggested Spark, and I liked it so I ran with it.

I have names for her cousins too: Torrent, Rifle, Crossfire, and Silverstar….note that I use a lot of natural stuff….Oh, and she has a brother, Ember.

Ooo, awesome names! The dragon in my fantasy WIP is named Ember, too. 🙂

I know I’m late, I’m so sorry! Life became a whirlwind of activity, and I haven’t been able to get on here until now.
One way you can have the girls meet Lyn is to have them wake up to her examining them. From there, they can panic, thinking she’s going to hurt them, and you can have a lovely scene of confusion. 😉 Or they could…[Read more]

Agh, I’m late! Life got crazy busy. 🙁
If you’d like/have the time to make another collage, you could do one for one of the books I’m co-writing! It’s titled Falling. Some of the themes are dragons, black snake/scales, forests, traitors, comas/sickness/near death, and blacksmiths. It’s in a tribal/Viking fantasy-type world. :D…[Read more]

Super late to this thread (life has become a whirlwind of activity…), but honestly, I do not have much experience with children’s POVs. The youngest character’s POV I’ve ever written was a… *thinks for a moment…or two* Well, a fourteen-year-old, so she’s not much of a child. I hope the others could help though! 😀 <333

Oh, fun! That sounds like a very smart job. 🙂
Yes, Susan! 🙁 I think (desperately hope) that she does end up in Narnia… (Aslan did say “Once a king or queen of Narnia, always a king or queen”) I think she was just trying to be grown-up… That could just be my older sister bias coming through though… 😛
Well, I am grateful…[Read more]

Aww, thx! I’m so glad they’re intriguing. 😀 Basically, acriters are snakes with the ability to breathe death. They get their muzzles next to their victim’s nose/mouth and exhale. The victim inhales the snake’s breath and subsequently falls into a fever and coma in which…[Read more]

Oh, dear. I am incredibly late. (*facepalm*) Welcome to the KP forum! I’m Lydia. 😀
Those are awesome genres! I’m currently working on contemporary, historical romance (mainly working on this one), and fantasy, but my main goal is to write Biblical fiction. *glances longingly at the stories stored in my brain *

Gah, my comment didn’t go through! I was still sprinting, but the internet (or lack thereof) seemed to be against me. 🙁 I hope you had a great writing time, girl! <333
Once again, the internet is my enemy. I was still sprinting, but I couldn’t come on. 🙁 Hope your writing went well though!

Thank you so much for the advise! I’m sure this will all be very helpful. We will be writing in fairly close, and eventually, the same time period (I am planning on writing a trilogy about the life of Simon Peter), so I really appreciate all of your help. 🙂 And I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to type Biblical fantasy; I meant to say…[Read more]
