Hello, @light-warrior-pen!

Favorite character: Prince Willibert, mostly because of his name. And because he puzzles me to no end.

Favorite ice-cream: espresso is really good, with vanilla and something chocolate.

Where would I go? Eh, I’ll say southern France. Just because that’s what I’ve been saying lately, and it sounds cool to visit…[Read more]

Hey, @acancello! That’s so cool! What made you guys move to NC and get interested in farming? I’ll have to send you the link to our farm website once I finish updating it. We started the same way, with chickens and a garden 🙂

@hybridlore

Well, it’s a pretty image anyway. I like it too.

Neat that you used to live in Minnesota! Yeah, we love our extreme temps over here. Boiling summers, freezing winters. On the whole, it’s lovely. The scenery never stays the same for long.

@thearcaneaxiom

So with the faeries, I wanted to call back to traditional fairy tales, where you have these mystical beings who could be either good or evil, everybody has different takes on it, different stories– they seem to appear out of nowhere sometimes, and then other times they were part of the community for a long time with few people…[Read more]

@pixie

Probably hard; I enjoy whimsical storytelling, and have indulged in it. Off-the-cuff, in the moment stories. But when it’s something I really care about, I have to organize the ideas, compare them to my fundamental beliefs, figure out how they correspond to God’s way of thinking… I admire Tolkien quite a bit, even if I don’t plan to worldbu…

Here’s some drawings of the twins that I don’t think I’ve shown yet

Hi, @esther-c! Thanks for the welcome. I’m currently a terrible volleyball player! And I’m glad to hear you enjoyed Peterson’s book!

Wow. Especially in light of God’s Word, I take great delight in all three elements of Story, seeing that God does too! But when it comes down to it, I might say characters. I think God pours the most love into his…[Read more]

Greetings, @keilah-h! Nice to get acquainted!

Interstellar has a great soundtrack, though anything by Hans Zimmer is stellar! But yeah, the story felt a bit nihilistic. But since I’m into regenerative agriculture/permaculture, and I also believe that God plans to establish His kingdom on earth after all is said and done, I really want to write a…[Read more]

Greetings, @arcaneaxiom! Thank you. We are rejoicing in God’s healing hand! He is good (even if she had been paralysed, as could easily have been the case).

Lovely questions!

Probably hard; I enjoy whimsical storytelling, and have indulged in it. Off-the-cuff, in the moment stories. But when it’s something I really care about, I have to organize…[Read more]

Greetings, @hybridlore! I’m guessing your profile picture is your art, like mine– I will have to check out the art forum at some point!

I checked out Natalie Sideserf, and my five-year-old sister thought the video we watched was enormously funny! Since I live in a fairly small town, people generally want your boring buttercream sheet cakes, so…[Read more]

Hello @highscribeofaetherium! Nice to meet you! Also so refreshing to run across another Megan Whalen Turner and Andrew Peterson geek!

Um… I am not the go-to joke person in my family. But, since it was a question: do you know Where a general keeps his armies?

Sad to say, I live in the upper midwest and any states I’ve visited are in that area.…[Read more]

Hello, @acancello! Wow, we have a lot of shared interests 🙂 I do love the subject of food!! We love to experiment in the kitchen in our family.

Favorite book series is a tough question: most recent is the Queen’s Theif series, but longest-standing is Lloyd Alexander’s Prydain or Lewis’ Narnia.

Um, closest thing to a sport might be…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings

You’re so welcome! <3

@acancello

Oh yes, definitely keep him around. 😉 I feel like there’s tons of potential for his backstory and his role in the story… 😏 I don’t have any ideas in particular on what that could be right now, but I always love characters that the readers don’t know quite everything about.

@godlyfantasy12

I think we need to see some scenes about some certain ships *cough*Novella*cough*Lux*cough* on this forum…. 😏

@acancello

This is going to be interesting! And fun! I have multiple ships in my WIP. 😏

(And a new ship that’s forming for a new WIP that I’m really excited about… But that’s to be revealed. 🤫)

I’ll have to hop on later to share some stuff! (Probably on Friday. 🙂 )

Hello, @mackenzie! Definitely relate on the sunset love and reading choices! (My sister breeds dogs, but my passion for them is very tame.)

Favorite writing music: definitely soundtracks. But whatever I’m listening to, I always do it with an ear to finding songs for my WIP Spotify playlists– and the song titles have to be appropriate to my story…[Read more]

Nice to meet you, Joy! What’s the biggest thing you find KP has done to change your life & pursuit of writing?

I think it was your poem I read on the blog here last night; there was a stanza right near the middle, about God using my life, that helped me understand something. The whole thing read similar to a psalm– maybe that’s what you were…[Read more]

🤣🤣🤣

Welcome to Kingdom Pen, @pixie!!

I’m Esther: a volleyball-playing, volleyball-squeaking, dog-obsessed, homeschooled, fiction-writing, God-loving, teen girl!

Yesss, Adorning the Dark is so good!! I really loved it the first time I read it. And speaking of, I should probably read it again. 😛

You do cake decorating?? That’s awesome. 😎 I love edibl…[Read more]
