Great topic, I love it! 🤣

Well, my weirdest story was probably my first one.  *epic music plays in the background* The Teres of the Man.  

Complete with illustrations!!  Oh yeah!  XD  It was about a horse named Wanna (not Wanda, Wanna), an anteater named Carrie, and a frog named Joe.  And the villain was (to quote straight from t…[Read more]

Hey Ben!  I’m Ella.  Welcome, welcome!  Ooo, cool!  You want to write more action in books?  Cool.  I like to write YA dystopian and thriller/suspense mainly.  My WIP synopsis is:

24 miles off the Island of Camino, a commercial airline goes down in the Pacific. Only one passenger survives.
Dylan, an orphan-turned-foster child, was li…

Hey Mary!  I’m Ella, and welcome to KP!!!  I’ve been homeschooled for most of my life, but this next year will be my second year at a classical Christian school.  My WIP synopsis is:

@keilah-h

wow!!! good job!! I like em! 🙂 keep it up!

@kathleenramm yours sounds great! the glassblower is a very cool idea and I’d totally give it a good grade if I was a teacher. Either way it sounds great!! The glassblower idea is amazing (sorry repeated myself lol)

@godlyfantasy12 I admit I laughed out loud but that is a hilarious and great idea XD maybe the older sibling could have bribed them…[Read more]

@maryg3 Ohh okk!! That’s so cool!!! We had the same problem with illustrating ours haha.

Oh neaat!! I looove the piano. I don’t play it well though XD I have a friend who sometimes plays for our church services. He plays so well.

Thanks! I do a lot of writing tips–like things that have helped me. Or sometimes I’ll do research for a book of mine…[Read more]

@kathleenramm Okay but that sounds like a Studio Ghibli or something tbh, that’s really not that bad XD It sounds like a short film.

The moment I read this week’s topic, my mind went to a story that I made a few years ago.

It’s basically one giant food pun. The girl is an ancient Chinese fruit-stand seller, trying to sell enough fruit to buy…[Read more]

@sparksaraabbott11

Hey,

1. Okay this is tricky because I dont keep track very well. But I would say

• Bunny by Mona Awad- a weird book I wasn’t sure if I liked very much
• Emma by Jane Austen(I read these in May for an English project)
• Mansfield Park by Jane Austen (” “)
• Steelheart by Brandon Sanderson (The Reckoners series)

2. I remember…[Read more]

Hey @anatra23

It’s nice to meet you too! That’s great. I’d love if you could offer me some reading suggestions

1. I’ve heard of the Marvel Cinematic universe but unfortunately I’ve never watched any of the movies (I know).

2. Sure. My WIP is mostly about a boarding school in an alternate history setting. There are two students who are competing…[Read more]

@gracie-j Oh absoutelyy!!! And thank youu so much!!!

@joy-caroline,

1. I’ve heard about the site once in a while but I didn’t know what it was about. I’ll definitely look into it. Flash fiction is such an interesting medium and I’m excited to read an alternative history twist.

2. *Gasps* How could you not have read Jane Eyre? (I’m kidding) Sparknotes is really handy and fun fact I’ve read the…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12 Ooo I gotcha!

I don’t really write themes, so that’s a little harder. Just recently I started adding themes of redemption and forgiveness as well as revenge, character growth, and Christianity.

Here’s a few extra I thought of off the top of mi…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

I agree with @gracie-j @devastate-lasting and @daisy-torres

As Lin said, I wouldn’t show my writing to most people at my church or people in general that are not my peers because my books are not for kids and the majority of adults would wonder what on earth I’ve been reading and watching to come up with such stuff. not that’s…[Read more]

@maryg3 Hi, Mary!! Welcome to KingdomPen!!

I am a scifi fantasy writer/author, with two published books! I also have a blog, but I’m a master procrastinator so I rarely update T_T

I love telling cheesy jokes, hate hallmark movies, love CS Lewis, kinda like Tolkien, and love historical fiction/Fantasy/Sci-Fi novels. Especially if they’re long…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

The Art of Deception (my sci-fi) is the preachiest with Christianity that I’ve ever been, and I’m loving it.

Used to, when I wrote Fantasy, I thought like what you’re saying. How will I ever reach a non-Christian audience if I talk about God a lot?

Well, (like Gracie said!) maybe that’s not where God is calling us. We become so…[Read more]

@gracie-j OH my WORD girl P R E A C H!!!! That was a fantastic comment and I could not have said it better myself!!!! I agree wholeheartedly with everything you said!! (And that literally makes me so happy that your grandfather told you that!!! It makes me so so soooo happy to see the Holy Spirit working through young writers’ works like that!!!)…[Read more]

@imrighthere1920

Thanks. I really am. And I really admire the mission behind your website. The illustrations are so cute. I wish I had comics like that when I was a kid 🙂

@mkfairygirl,

1. My favorite book would have to be Jane Eyre by Jane Austen. It’s problematic on so many ways but I just love a gothic romance. But I read in a wide variety of genres with fantasy and science fiction being my new favorites. As to my favorite movie that’s too hard to choose. I watch a lot of Nigerian Christian movies. And my…[Read more]
