Hi so um, sorry if this isn’t the place to say this, feel free to direct me to another topic if needed, but I would like to join the character castle at some point, I would love to write a little more and develop some of my characters and I’ve been eyeing this topic several times haha. If it’s too full right now I can wait.

And a drawing

This looks fun! Let me try…

@euodia-vision

Ooo I’m curious to see some of your work 😀

Yeah I have a lot of the same hobbies hahah. The life of a creative amiright?
I love the Wingfeather Saga!! Always good to find another fan.

@euodia-vision

Hlo! I’m not currently working on comics but I’ve done a little bit of it in the past. By “WIP”s I don’t mean stories, I literally mean “art pieces that are Works In Progress” haha. But I do draw in a cartoon sort of style.

What do y’all enjoy doing? What are you writing? I’m curious to hear 😀

@freedomwriter76 You name sounds vaguely familiar, maybe we’ve met… but anyway hello, I’m Joy, I’m a writing-appreciator if anything. I’ve hung around writers for long enough to really appreciate the work that goes into the medium, lots of respect for you guys… I don’t quite have the braincells to do it myself usually haha. I still like making…[Read more]

Oh hello, it’s been a while……..

I’m not sure most of you know who I am but I was on KP a lot years ago. I’ve kind of moved on from writing for the most part so I’m not on as much but it’s so great to see that people are still here and hanging out and writing stuff together! 😀 How’s it been?

Also can someone tell me who did the art for the…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

Sure, girl! I’d LOVE to help you out if I’m able! (Conversational scenes are some of my favorite so I’m very excited!!!!) Anyway, the email you know of mine works great for me (I’d rather not put it here where everyone can see it, but if you don’t remember it, then I can share my author email instead.)

@freedomwriter76

(sorry for my late response. I don’t check KP as much as I should. XD)

But YESSS!!!!! You should!!! I hope you enjoy them. A NIGHT DIVIDED WAS AMAZING!!!!!! *high fives* I think it’s a must-read for any historical fiction lover!!!

@whalekeeper

So I might not be getting the problem *exactly* correct, but if you’re having a hard time with the pacing of your story, I’m gonna recommend to try plotting it out. Plotting doesn’t have to be all that complicated at all! Basically, there are certain major points that need to happen in every story besides just beginning, middle, and…[Read more]

@lrose5

Also nice profile pic. 😂 *high fives*

@lrose5

AHOY THERE MATEY!!!!!!!

*waves excitedly* It’s SOOO exciting to see you’ve joined the Kingdom, Rylie!!!! *jumps up and down* I am so, so, so, so, so, so, so, sooooo happy you’re here!!!!!!!!! I’ve been like super inactive here lately, but I do hope to get back to hanging on the forum. But I see everyone else has already given you a warm…[Read more]

@annabethkatherinewingfeather

Ah historical fiction is one of my absolute FAVORITE genres, so I’m more than happy to provide a few recs. 🙂

Within These Lines by Stephanie Morrill. It’s a book set in the USA in World War II about the Japanese internment camps. It’s a really emotional and touching/moving story and I can’t recommend it…[Read more]

@wilder-w So exciting! Here are some of the most important things in my opinion for promoting your book: 1) a website, 2) a newsletter/email list, 3) social media.

Think of your website as your “home base.” This is where you want to direct more traffic to, because there people will learn more about your book/whatever you’re selling, how to buy it…[Read more]

@joy-caroline Something I try to remember when I’m working on side characters is that they are the main character of their own story. Even if they don’t have a POV in the story, they will have their own values, goals, motives, etc. in the story. I love working on their backstory, because it’s usually then that I discover their internal conflict…[Read more]

@kathleenramm
I actually started working on one about human experimentation in which the characters escaped and made their way to Charleston, SC (one of the places I grew up) but I dropped the story because I didn’t end up liking it.

I also read one set in Charleston where there was absolutely zero research done of where things are.  It was funny.

@unsung You’re welcome!!!

Aww THANK YOU!!!! I love yours as well!!!
