@kathleenramm It was one of those homeschool minivans, which is lowkey funny to me. That would make a great device, as well as a way to introduce a character.

@devastate-lasting

Oh, wow. What kind of car was that? If you do end up writing this into a story I bet you could make up some really cool explanation, like… alien car, fairy car, super-high-tech-rich-guy’s car, I don’t know. XD

But I can imagine it being a really fun scene.

@lewilliams

Haha! It would would be really fun to write about a…[Read more]

@relia

That’s a really good question… As much as I want to write full-time (which is pretty much what I do now), I think having other jobs is a good way to gain experience in different areas.

@lewilliams Ah, yes, books. Also something I’ve been struggling with lately. But I’d be glad to give you some reccs of books that I love! Although, I have to warn you…lately I haven’t been able to stomach anything other than classic lit, so maybe a lot of these books will have the same flavor as the things that you read for your college…[Read more]

@relia Another job, because I feel like maybe, just maybe if I had to do writing as work then I might hate it.

@typewriter77 Hi Seth! Nice to meet you! I’m Linyang, though most here call me Lin. I also write fantasy and contemporary, as well as crime and now occasionally some dystopian and maybe eastern fantasy. I haven’t met anyone who’s written Wuxia before! I do love reading some of them. Might I ask if you’re an anime fan? You seem like the type.

Do…[Read more]

@kathleenramm That’s such a fun story!

Other than people that would make good characters…

On the first day of one of my classes this year I was heading in doors to the place where we hold our co-op, and anyways, while I was still outside in the parking lot, this car just drove by in front of my, crunching this safety cone (which are…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12 Awesome! Good luck with the rest of it!

@rochellaine

Thank you! Oh wow, a country song? I’m intrigued. 😀 That’s awesome that you’re getting back into writing again! Yup, I’m working on my sequel. I made some pretty good progress yesterday. 🙂 Abbie Emmons is hosting a virtual ‘writing retreat’ during June with writing livestreams every Wednesday, if you’re interested.

@nanisnook

Yeah, I get what you mean. Almost anything can be easier or harder depending on the situation.

Have you ever based characters on other people in your life?

AHH WELCOME BACK @rochellaine!!!!! Seeing your post pop up in my emails made me smile! 😀 Thanks for the congratulations! It’s been a hectic journey but I’m so excited about the book. 🙂 But enough about me, I wanna hear how YOU have been lately. <3

@sami-eastwood That synopsis sounds awesome! I would love to read a book about that!

Disaster movies are certainly unique. I don’t usually go to watch them but I have watched several. And those are an awesome choice of books!

Ah, I’ve heard of ranch dressing on pizza, though I have yet to try it! I will have to, though!

@nanisnook I usually end up procrastinating for a week and regretting it, but yeah I usually push on through instead of skipping around.

@ariel-f

Camille can make you spill all your secrets and publish them? Woah, she’s on a another level. Not necessarily a higher one but definitely a different one. XD

@nanisnook

It’s cool how you modeled Tess after yourself! It would be very interesting going to brunch with someone very similar to yourself.

Just a bit curious, do you find it…[Read more]

@gracie-j

So cool! I’m a bit caught up in the throws of my novel, but I can’t wait to read all the winners!

@faith-q

Hi! Welcome to the forum! I’m Kathleen and it’s awesome to have you!

Seven siblings! I’m not too far behind with six. Though, at the moment it kinda feels like I only have three since the rest moved out. XD

It’s so cool that your learning three languages! My sister sister is fluent in Korean and Japanese, so she really inspires me to…[Read more]

@faith-q Hi there! Welcome to Kingdom Pen! I’m Linyang, though most folks here just call me Lin. Pleasure to make your acquaintance!

That is a lot of siblings! It must be a fun family!

Those are a lot of languages! I’m currently trying to learn Japanese when I can.

What are some of your favorite books or movies?

What are some of your favorite…[Read more]

@gracie-j Thank you so much! I love yours as well!

@joy-caroline Yours is beautiful!

@issawriter7 Thank you so much!
