@kathleenramm Every day, I always get new story ideas, and if it’s good enough, I’ll write them down. I have maybe…14 I want to go on with?
Essentially it just comes down to time and experience. I don’t have time right now because I’m busy with a different story, but after I’m done I’ll work on that. And once I’m done with all of these, I’ll…[Read more]

What’s a story idea that you want to write but haven’t yet? Because your afraid, don’t want to ruin it, haven’t done enough research with, etc.
Growing up, my siblings and I dreamt up a world with characters, fictional histories, languages, and stories to go with them. Right now, we have a bunch of notes, fictional artifacts, family trees,…[Read more] -

@gracie-j I feel like that my home’s homeschooling is so different from other people haha… Can’t wait to graduate.
Hmm…I’ve done piano lessons for…eleven years now? And ballet for…eight? I think. I guess I’m gonna have to self teach myself now if I even have time to practice, haha.

@gracie-j Hm…my least favorite subject is science, haha. My favorite I would have to say is Literature. But that’s English though…uh…I don’t really like school much…Algebra was fun though…when I understood what was going on. Do my piano lessons count? Though…my teacher just retired last week so I don’t have those anymore either.

Kathleen replied to the topic What is your biggest struggle as a writer? (Long rants welcome) in the forum Topic of the Week 5 years, 6 months ago
Well, it all began in 2013. During a vacation, my older sister (who was the most into writing back then) suggested that we all write a story together. The name? Fighting Toucan Island. Though, it was about as cliche a story you can get. I was only nine, my older sister was twelve, my younger brothers were seven and five. Honestly, I…[Read more]

@e-k-seaver Wow I absolutely love it! Think I might actually use it in the future, if you don’t mind. I’ll give you credit, of course.
You’re so good at making these! Do you use photoshop?

Being able to write with my siblings is one of the best gifts that God has given me. There’s rarely a day that goes by without me thanking God for it in my prayers. XD
But that being said, there are a couple of cons… the first that comes to my head is when there’s a disagreement. When you write on your own, you get the final say in…[Read more]

Hating my writing used to be a big obstacle for me as well. So big in fact I wrote an entire article on KP about it.XD
It’s so hard to see the amazing story in your head look so badly when it’s on the page. Then all the work and time you put into your story feels futile.
But as you said, once you get over the crippling…[Read more]

Yeah, sometimes too much advice can stunt creativity. With so many opinions online, sometimes while writing I feel like have to check off all these boxes, instead of just tell a story.
Each time I write I have to remind myself that I just need to tell a story, in an understandable, enjoyable way, that helps someone. Even if…[Read more]

@kathleenramm Personally I think it’s other people telling me what to do.
Like, I guess being a writer you see all sorts of writing accounts on social media giving writing advice and things. Not that all writing advice is bad, of course. Personally I feel, however, that writing advice really only applies to beginner writers. I appreciate the…[Read more]
