Which movie/show was your favorite?

Oohhh! We call that Nationals. I’m not sure about other districts,(Alaska Yukon sent only one team this last year.) but Texas sent 4 Senior Experienced teams to the 2021 Nationals. (I don’t remember the number of teams for the other divisions.)

The Premise to your WIP sound interesting! Do you have any favorite characters from the novel yet?

Also, flying is an awesome choice. I’d probably choose the same thing. If I could fly, I’d probably hang out on rooftops and trees all the time, haha.

Sorry I took so long getting back with you.

I go to a UPCI church. I have quizzed for five years (2022 will be my sixth). I love it!!!

How about you? (Translate each of these answers into questions and answer them for-*beeeep* Red One interupintion)

And tigers are awesome! And yes, I don’t like horror either. But there are some other great genres out there! What are your favorite books/movies?

It was challenging but definitely worth it

That’s cool! I definitely feel the struggle trying to find time to write haha, I am also just coming out of a writing break and I’ve been…[Read more]

Cool! I agree; it can be really cool to step back in time with fantasy. 🙂

That’s an interesting take on the story!

Hi Tasha! Welcome to the Kingdom. My name is Jodi, and I write fantasy, historical fiction, and the occasional dystopian piece. I was homeschooled pretty much my whole life and I just graduated from college this year! 🙂

I love fairytale retellings! What other kinds of fantasy stories do you usually write?

Hullo and welcome!

Totally agree with you–rather fly. That is and interesting sounding WIP (both the Cinderella one and the fantasy novel)
What’s the name of your fantasy book?

I’m Keilah (even though my username shows that quite obviously). I’m 14 but will be 15 next year. Your stories sound cool! I have an idea for a “mildly dystopian” fantasy novel, but I’m still worldbuilding on it. I’ll ask a few questions:

  • What’s your favorite mythical or extinct animal? My favorites are…

Story I’m particular proud of? My WIP for sure. Ig it’s cuz I’ve spent years hammering out fuzzy details, and mostly having fun with the plot.

@melancholic-writer

This is the best form of outline XD I depend heavily on inconsistency. (in the best way)

Ugh, I could go on forever with characters too, haha.

Out of all the character you’ve created, do you have one you know the best?

@devastate-lasting

Yo, I’m not even surprised that people always compliment you on your pros. It’s one of a kind.

Was pros something that came naturally to you or did you have to work on…[Read more]

Hi! Welcome to the Kingdom of Pen! It’s awesome to have you here!

Just a few questions to get to know each other better:

1. What’s the premise of your fantasy novel?

2. When and why did you start writing?

3. Would you rather be able to breath underwater or fly?

Great to meet your acquaintance! Catch you…[Read more]
