Sometimes I can give a kid an ‘adult’ responsibility and they snap out of crying. I don’t know if that would work here, Rae, but she’s trying. XD

“I was thinking we start down this corridor along the edge of the castle, and scour the place for clues and people,” Barnes told Percival.

The group waited a few minutes for Reid to calm his brother, who remained stubbornly curled up. He was still agitated.

Barnes was used to people who looked much younger than their…[Read more]

Of course you can do whatever you want, I’m playing the other side’s advocate so you have balanced reasons for whatever you do.

@linus-smallprint

(also, anyone else who is reading this, what do you think?)

You have a very sensible writer voice, with hints of humor and warmth. I think because of your semi-calm tone, you don’t seem like the kind of person who would write a super intense POV scene of shame for Eric, at least not until the arc’s climax.

And from what I can…[Read more]

@loopylin

Yeah, you had to fill out a form with your account information and then they were supposed to send you an email in a few days I think with your password and how to navigate the forum. It took her a couple weeks to send me my confirmation email and login information.

@esther-c @keilah-h @whalekeeper

Making our own website would be cool.

I have no memory of joining kp and making my account. Did we have to send in an application email or something? What was it like?

@keilah-h

I’m not sure, actually 🤔When I joined two years ago, it took them a few weeks to process my account stuff

My only fear would be that it would slowly lose momentum and people who want to stay up on posting and moderating it and it would just fade away like KP and even SE has.

@theshadow

Prayers and hugs 🙏🏻💕🫂

@whalekeeper @highscribeofaetherium

I know, it is really sad 🥺

Yes, Whaley, I do remember that! It lasted for like a week or something 💀

You know what’d be really cool is if we created an offshoot of Kingdom Pen since it’s not super active in articles and stuff. Like all of us in the forum who are interested start a website similar to KP and…[Read more]

@esther-c @highscribeofaetherium

Yeah, I’ve noticed things are slowing down. 😔 The best way I can think of picking things up again would be to update the articles, add new material.

Does anyone remember the time they added a page for a new rank of KP writers? Anyone who wrote three of either articles, short stories, or poems? It was there one…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

I just decided to read that chapter completely out of order. I’ve only read up to chapter 5 besides this, I think, and that was a while ago. XD I can give some feedback about this chapter, as someone who read it without any context whatsoever.

I liked the sense of friendship I got from all the good guys, even if they couldn’t…[Read more]

It just occurred to me that we might be the only reason KP is still going….. The Meet the Team page has gone down from like five people to now only one—Reagan Ramm. Kathleen isn’t even on there….

😳

@keilah-h

plus it all depends on where you caught them in their arcs.

I’m planning to use creative liberties because of this, lol. After all, if some of these people turn violent in the game, that’s not accurate to their canon internal values. This is alternate noncanon; the most moral, innocent character might defenestrate their…[Read more]

I know I’m not super keeping up with this topic, but I’ve been praying for every prayer request that shows up! 🙏 <33

@whalekeeper

Yeah, that makes so much sense!

Oh yeah, I get that. I have a lot of writing knowledge, I just don’t always apply it 💀😂

@esther-c

Awesommme, I’m glad that worked. For me, I want to add description in longer paragraphs because they have a softer sense of time, and you can afford to give the information in a solid chunk. And then like you said, actions and dialogue are shorter.

Not that I always follow my own thoughts! Buuut verbalizing this might help me stay consistent.

@whalekeeper

No girl, I love it! I think the key to writing chaotic scenes is pacing. Like if you have a lot of long sentences people are going to get confused, but in your case, you stuck to shorter/mid-length sentences and sprinkled in only a few long ones. It worked really well 👌

@loopylin

Yaayyy the Loops likey

Now I’m really curious what all the characters want their wishes to be. I think I know Dante’s maybe.

So, as it happens, I am curious too. XD I have some idea of how each character would act in a survival scenario, and everyone wants to survive, buuuuuut I don’t know what each character would wish for. I have gue…[Read more]
