@overcomer Don’t worry about it! Glad to hear you’ve been learning so much from it. 🙂

Welcome to the forum @Kina-Lamb! Great to see more family members on the site. 🙂

@Kina-Lamb welcome to the bestistest place on the internet! *shakes your hand enthusiastically* So glad to have you here. And it’s late and my brain is fried or I would say something more creative…
But welcome again. I hope you stick around and learn a lot of cool, useful stuff. 🙂
This forum can always use another Lamb.
I’ll be seeing you around. 😀

Howdy, @kina-lamb! Now where have I seen you before…

@dragon-snapper I agree, I have seen lots of different styles and they’re all amazing! I love @aysia-serene‘s drawing! And i-j-anderson is so talented at realism. And @kate-flournoy has a very unique realistic-but-not-quite style 😀

@Arella-Noreen But really, aren’t all writers sort of crazy? 😀

You guys make my pitiful attempts at naming look so lame… XD

@DelightInLife Basically, when I need a name for my fantasy story, I just sort of…come up with one. I start putting random word syllables together, until something like Liriel emerges. (Liriel, by the way, is the main character in my WIP) I take a letter I think sounds nice, like L…[Read more]

@arella-noreen Haha! I’ll take that in creepiest, stalkerish way I can then. 😉 It certainly is true about writers tho… Just as long as you never admit to someone that you modeled that character after them!

@Arella-Noreen I like it! *thumbs up* Lots of great story material there. What’s your favorite poem? Mine is probably Tolkien’s Mythopoeia. All of Tolkien’s work, really, but that one especially. 😉

Wow guys, there are no words for the awesomeness of this topic. Fellow word-root lovers— group hug! 😀

@DelightInLife I don’t have time right now to do as long a post as I could, but starting out, I basically figured out what kind of feel/culture I wanted the name to belong to/have, then went and searched on Google ‘old…[Read more]

I think I’ll quit now, @r-j-wordsmith . Thanks for writing with me. 🙂

I wrote some more of a poem I’m working on, and figured out some unresolved plot issues I need to fix with my novel outline. I have a lot of conflicting ideas for my story world and villain that are confusing my muse … anyway, it’s a step in the right direction! 🙂

Welcome to the forum @arella-noreen! Great to have you with us. I like the premise of your novel–superhero novels are really fun. Have you read Into the Fire or Steelheart? Both are pretty fun superhero stories, especially the former.

@Arella-Noreen Twas bold of me to ask to be sure. 🙂 Well done guardly your authorly secrets. Oh that’s really cool that their powers come from the kind of situation they escape from. I look forward to hopefully reading some in the future.

I’m an ENFP like your sister! Although we’re best friends as well, my sister is my opposite in terms of…[Read more]

I’m late, but welcome to KP @Arella-Noreen! Sounds like you and I have a lot in common (my INFP personality type aside 😉 ). I was born in Texas, adore poetry, write fantasy and sci-fi, homeschooled and proud of it, etc. etc. and all the rest. *grins*
Can you tell us a little bit about your book? It sounds neat, from what @Rolena-Hatfield said.

Awesome, @r-j-wordsmith ! 🙂 If this is to end in fire … we’ll just write. 😉 🙂

Same here. *thumbs up to all the peoples*

@arella-noreen Oh, yes, I’m on YWW, I’m just afraid I don’t show up there much. This is my main hub…

Ooh, neat! The MC of my book was an INFJ, so I think that’s particularly cool. I’m an ENFJ myself. (Which is at least equally cool, of course.)

@Arella-Noreen Welcome, fellow Wielder of Sarcasm! I like your kind. That’s neat, how you came up with your pen name. Unfortunately, Ethryndal doesn’t mean anything but ‘it sounds good’. Ooh, and I like your profile pic! Out of curiosity, did you draw it?

And yes, what Daeus said. Tell us your personality type so that all the MBTI Fanatics can…[Read more]

@arella-noreen Haha! I have had that problem where no one was really sure what genre to put my book under. 🙂 That plot sounds super intriguing! I like how they can’t unlock their powers until they’ve gone through a traumatic incident. Do these bad wrecks have anything to do with the slightly insane, yet extremely intelligent villain? You just…[Read more]
