Hello hello and welcome!!

Oh my gosh, I’ve read The Count of Monte Cristo, one of my favorite books. How long did it take you to read the whole thing? Took me three weeks. Haha.

Screenplay writing, that’s awesome. I don’t have any tips, but do you have a specific idea in mind for the screenplay you want to write?

I am that beautiful woman you met, so I’ve already been introduced to you, but I’ll answer your questions. 😉 What brought you to Kingdom Pen, and what would you like to see improved?What brought me to Kingdom Pen many moons ago when I was just a teen was the mission to change the culture through writing. I was very isolated and a lonely teen…[Read more]

Well hi there, Stellybean. Love your username. 😀 How did you come up with that?? FUN!!! Where are you at in the lineup? Oldest, middle? Yes, it is insane, but I wouldn’t trade it for the world. I’ve loved being a parent. 😀 Haha! Yes, it does. Many years (feels like lifetimes) ago I would have said those two things could not exist. But I’ve l…[Read more]

@northerner *nods* Makes sense.

@rochellaine :’D Quite. Thank you very much; that was indeed in need of clearing up. I guess that’s what I get for not being around. 😛

@rochellaine whew! 😛 I will confess, you guys had me a little freaked out. I guess I missed the discussion where it all started. *fans self feverishly* That takes a load off my mind.

At first, I was a little skeptical about the idea of a new site. Sure, Story Embers would be…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira a little. I’m part of one of the guilds, but not as active as I should be.

@ariel-ashira XD Preparing for a book launch. 😛

@leumeister it’s quite science-y but also plausible. 😀 I like the gravity manipulation thing. I have something slightly similar, only it’s a negative energy pulsar that basically creates a mini wormhole around the ship and enables almost instantaneous transportation.

Lots of cool ideas. 😀

@leumeister *grins* Thanks.

@leumeister I would love to, but unfortunately I’ve got a huge project on my hands right now (launching my first published book this year 😀 ) and I promised myself I wouldn’t take on anything extra.

@waterlily yeah. What he said.

@jenwriter17 heh… I’ve got the opposite problem. 😛

*scratches head* I would say probably the number one thing that makes my novels so ridiculously long is the crazy amount of time I spend really delving into the layers of chemistry in live scenes. I try to do all live scenes if I possibly can (no summaries, no overviews, no generalizations)…[Read more]

@Daeus *sniffles* It was an awesome gif too.
