You know you’re not a bookworm when you look at your bookshelf, shrug and say “Meh.”

*does not hide in shame*

Ummm. I think @bluejay still owns that position. I guess we’re just all developing major immunities to ice cream and raspberries while she’s gone. 😉 @dekreel

@clairec This was really obscure, but Daeus nominated me the substitute doctor a while back. No one’s gotten sick… so.

And yeah. I miss Tessa too. 😀 (Wherever you are… here’s a smi…[Read more]

@GracieGirl They shouldn’t disappoint. 😀

@Daeus I thought Andrew Peterson too—he’s got his own website andrew-peterson.com, and then a community he’s head of, rabbitroom.com, which I think has a large following of writers with the same general worldview of KeePers. Which is nice. And from what I’ve read he seems like a nice personal guy who’s always interested in helping others…[Read more]

You know you’re a Kapeefer when all of a sudden you start loving the name Josiah/Daniel/Anna/Daeus/Reagan/Snapper when you used to think nothing of it

@dekreel Haha!

@dragon-snapper That’s fine. 🙂

To clarify though, it doesn’t have to be an author you know. It could just be one you read.

@daeus Yeah….. no.

I don’t really know that many authors. Haven’t been to any conferences really–one local teen one–but otherwise… not yet. XD I’ll let you know if I can think of any.

Alright, KeePers, Josiah recommended I contact some published authors about this survey. I’m going to ask if they want to see the results when they come out and maybe if they want to share it with their audience too.

I’ve got a few authors in mind, but I don’t know a tone of authors. Any you can think of who might be interested in…[Read more]

@dekreel Oh my! XD

@jess-penrose Yes–that looks great! Depending on the plot/genre of your story, it may be interesting to also have an answer that you can lose your right to freedom if it’s for the greater good of society. (I’m thinking of times of crisis where citizens or soldiers may be coerced to do things because otherwise the nation may be overrun.) That sort…[Read more]

@dekreel Henceforth, I shall have to be careful when I get on camera.

@rochellaine Genius. Absolutely genius.

@introvert_girl

I usually like to start my sequels (I’ve only started one sequel…sooo….) by focusing on a scene that actually entails the villain. What he’s after. Especially if you’re villain has already been introduced in the first book.

I also like to have some sort of initiative on the villain’s part. There’s something needing to be…[Read more]

@mariposa Seriously. All these songs….

And that collage. O.O I wish to now read this book. Is it kinda like Jurassic Park/World, or something else. Was there time travel??

@daughteroftheking That quote. Is. So. Poetic.

@livgiordano Yeah. I appreciated that so much. Takes a lot of courage. And humility, especially after winning the superbowl against the Patriots.

@sam-kowal Let’s just go with the Eagles. 😉

@epicaddie2 Just remember that 85% of America was cheering with you. 😛

Oh yeah. I did that every now and then with my first person book. Just so long as you make it clear that you’re switching, you should be fine. 😀 @jenwriter17

@rochellaine Truly impressive.

@jess-penrose It could… Drawing from your first answer, what about adjusting the focusing question to something like, “When can you lose your right to freedom?” and tweaking the alternate answers slightly. Approaching it from that angle doesn’t make the right answer seem quite as obvious (since you have criminals who break the law and…[Read more]

@rochellaine Wow. That is amazing. The level of dedication it took to find all those screenshots is honestly impressive.

@pickupyourpenandwrite An incredible revelation–so that’s why I like algebra.
