Mariposa Aristeo replied to the topic Inspiration for an Art-icle (pun intended) in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 7 months ago
First of all, thanks everyone! You’re the bestiest. 🙂
@anne-of-Lothlorien That’s a very good point. Sometimes when a drawing/painting doesn’t turn out well, I browse through my old artwork and it makes me feel better. I’ve kept most of my drawings from infancy to now. Some of my canvas paintings I’ve thrown away but that’s because they take up…[Read more]

Greetings, kapeefers! I have need of your assistance for which I will be eternally grateful.
I’m thinking about writing an article on drawing/painting etc. for a magazine (not KP). The problem is, I’ve never actually learned to draw/paint in the normal sense. All I know is from trial, error, and a lot of practice. Sometimes the best advice is to…[Read more]

*Applauds* I have eagerly waited for KP to be mobile friendly! 🙂 The new site looks very professional. Me and my tablet can hardly wait.

@dragon-snapper Well, too many adjectives give him a stomachache, too many adverbs give him a headache, and cliches make him sneeze. 😉

@dragon-snapper Congratulations!!! Aberdeen would give you a high five except his arms are too short. He respectfully requests to eat your manuscript (don’t worry, I won’t let him). I just finished my second book too, so I can join you in your celebration!

@revayah1 Hehe, no, I already know my editor’s personality type—I was referring to my assistant, Aberdeen (he’s a book-eating, ink-drinking dinosaur from the createtus period). He’s a big help to me for the most part, except when he eats my stories. 😉

@princessfoo Nice to meet you officially (I’m an INFJ too)! My assistant, Aberdeen the Authorosaurus, gives you a hearty handshake.
What are your favorite hobbies?

@revayah1 I’m an INFJ too! I’m not sure what my assistant’s personality type is though…I really should make him take the test one of these days. 😉

Thank you so much! It was a poem I wrote a few years ago that I never did anything with, but then I joined KP and I thought I would share it. Thank you again! Do you write poetry?

Mariposa Aristeo replied to the topic Blog Post Word Count in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 7 months ago
@graciegirl I’ve heard it’s best to keep blogposts short because people have such short attention spans nowadays and don’t have time to read lengthy posts. I usually try to keep mine under a thousand words. If the post seems too long maybe you could make it a two-parter (that’s what I do). I’m looking forward to seeing your blog! What kind of…[Read more]

@that_writer_girl_99 My favorite hobby is drawing and a fact about me is….I hate mint in every size, shape, and form.

Mariposa Aristeo replied to the topic Christ Characters in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 8 months ago
@graciegirl I’m not sure if I’m the best person to give advice on this subject since I don’t write allegories, but here are some of my thoughts. I personally think when a person/figure represents Christ they should be flawless like He was, mainly because it might give people the mistaken notion that He wasn’t perfect. Wouldn’t a sinless…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy I’m full of revised Disney quotes (I guess that’s what comes of being a Disney fanatic).

@koryn-Koch I actually can’t write with both hands—I write and draw exclusively with my left but everything else I do with my right (weird, I know). Wow, I never would have guessed your last name is pronounced cook.

Aloha @joy! Me and my assistant, Aberdeen the Authorosaurus, greet you! I’m an INFJ too! Have you ever read An Old Fashioned Girl by Louisa May Alcott? What are your favorite sweets? Do you like to bake?

@that_writer_girl_99 My species is even rarer. I’m not right-handed. I’m not left-handed. I’m a combination of right and left-handed!
