@DRAGON-SNAPPER
We’re Re branding. “Dark Evil Overlord Stanton” was too heavy handed and confusing to my underlings who were under the impression that we were the good guys. Solution: Remove “evil” from the title.

Since I can’t keep up I’ll just say two things.

1. “DARK Overlord” does NOT equal “evil overlord”.

2. Should the title actually be “Chosen One of Three”?

“Yes, Professor. As long as they have equal parts water and forum post ideas, they will be able to whip up some wooden coins.”

“A most excellent proposition,” slithers a familiar dark voice from a shrouded corner. A gloved fist slowly breaks the plane of light cast by a candle. The fingers uncurl to reveal a small bag with a label that reads ‘Mix 1 part water with 1 part forum post to produce 50 wooden coins’. “For the Lady with all the questions. And there is plenty more…[Read more]

@theliterarycrusader and @bethanysinkyroses, thanks for pushing things through to completion in my absence. I really appreciate it.

I have accepted a new job and moved to a new city and the dust is just beginning to settle. I’ll get back in the swing of things soon. Just as soon as someone can point me to the nearest thing-swing…

Quick Note: The ebook is really new, guys. You are getting the first ever look at it. There will be another version hitting the market place at a later date that will include some graphic design, but for now, you all are the only people with access to the content. Hope you enjoy!

Above the cheers of elation from the hundreds of troll-thingys and serfs that crowd the castle courtyard, the Dark Overlord emerges from his dark tower. A hush fall over the crowd as the air buzzes in excited anticipation.

“My fellow KeePers, Troll-Thingys, serfs, Question-Asker, and Professor,” a long pause for dramatic effect. The pause…[Read more]

@bethanysinkyroses, I think that will work nicely. I will right up a quick summary for @theliterarycrusader to use to create a graphic (don’t worry, I will also put it in the official channel of “getting stuff made”).

Goal of the Handout:
A physical reminder of an amazing conversation with a fellow writer that communicates the core qualities of…[Read more]

@stewie-plotter, we re-branded my title to “Dark” Overlord after we did all those focus groups, remember? They said “Evil” was a little too heavy handed and “Dark Evil” was too confusing. Something about Dark not meaning the same thing as Evil. To be honest, I wasn’t paying much attention during that focus group, but the troll-thingies down in…[Read more]

@bethanysinkyroses and @hope, Awesome thoughts! I totally agree with the main purpose of this handout:

A physical reminder of an amazing conversation with a fellow writer

I think it would be great to keep a lot of open space on the card for writing notes and such since it is used during a conversation. Thus, we are only putting the vary core of…[Read more]

@bethanysinkyroses, I’m going to tag @aratrea (Josiah) because he just actually took KP to a homeschool conference.

I would definitely like to see KP at more homeschooling conferences because it is a place where we are most likely to be able to interact with our target audience (Young Christian Authors, or their parents in this case). I know at…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper, Fun fact, getting captured by dragons is actually how I got my Marketing job here at Kingdom Pen. Also, the fact that dragons smell like coffee is the number 1 reason why I was trying to capture them.

Just to keep the creative juices flowing, here is a link to the kp brochure pdf that @theliterarycrusader made for kp.

I’ll also create a thread where we can compile KP resources.

For these sorts of projects (and most projects) I like to work my way backwards from the end-goal of such initiatives. It would seem to me that the end goal of this…[Read more]

@bethanysinkyroses, That is a Great Idea! I’m going to tag @theliterarycrusader (Brianna) who is our copy editor and graphic designer.

My thought goes something like this
– Wow! bethanysinkyroses is super cool and involved and probably should be promoted to a new title soon.
– I love this idea of having a printable resource for our stewards.
– I…[Read more]
