I like how each of the friends, Freddy, Eddy, Al, and Hilda all have unique personalities. I love it when kid’s books have good friendships. I also liked how each chapter had its own little theme, and I also liked the humor!

My biggest critique would be that the stories are much more K…[Read more]

Just about finished reading it! I will give you my feedback soon.

Sure, that would be great!! Though, I would rather not post my email on a public forum if that’s the way to get it.

Is Freddy and Friends your book?

@seekjustice @kathleenramm @erinramm @morwen @michelle @merieshenanigans @alia

Well, it finally happened! My book is now available for free on Amazon for five days. Tell your friends or anyone who has a 9-12 year old looking for some new reading material!

Do you think it’s publishable? Definitely!

Does it keep your interest? Yep! My only minor suggestion would be to make the rats pop up a little more in the story. They’re kind of just in there for the first chapter and then never mentioned again, which to me felt kinda awkward … but that might just be me being overly picky…[Read more]

What I mean is, my first books were written by my mom but dictated by me at about three years old. They were stapled together sheets of paper with hand-drawn illustrations. I read them sometimes, and I’m not sure if I quite follow the storyline…especially because some of the words probably aren’…[Read more]

I’ve been writing before I really could write.

Same! Science fiction is the genre that I would like to write a novel in but haven’t written in yet.

Mixing sci-fi with fantasy sounds really cool! There are endless cool story ideas that can come out of that combination of genres. But yeah, I’m on the same boat as you and haven’t yet thought of a plot idea.XD

I found out about Story Embers and KP through YDUbs, haha :))

Wrong guess, I’ve never watched a single one of the Marvel movies.

I actually hand make cards too–for grown-ups XD I love calligraphy.

I look as Irish as a dog looks like a cat, so I’m there with you. I always wanted red hair, but it would look awful on me, haha.

I’ve…[Read more]

@michelle That’s awesome!

@leon-fleming Hey, I’m late too (o_0; )
Yeah, probably. I think they explained it on one of the SE…[Read more]

Awesome! Looking forward to it.

Here’s my email!

Kathleenramm@icloud.com

Is this the first chapter book you’ve written, or have you written others as well?

Yeah, I feel you. Fantasy’s really fun to write. (Also procrastination is the bane of my existence lolllll)
They’re pretty fun to write (and read). I generally stray from using another author’s characters, though, at least as the main characters; it’s much more fun to create my own, even if I am sticking them in another…[Read more]

Yes, I totally agree. The seed of inspiration has to come from somewhere, right?

But that’s what writers do! Notice the small but fascinating things in the world that most people overlook.

Being strange is what writers do best.XD

@leon-fleming

Funny enough yes! I was able to dream about my fictional worlds.

Only occasionally and after many efforts, but when I did the world ended up being a lot more…[Read more]

I wouldn’t exactly call myself a ‘kpop stan’, as I only stan one group right now (it’s really hard for me to focus on more than one group at a time) but I like to listen to a lot of the songs,…[Read more]

I got into writing because of Shannon Hale’s Ever After High trilogy, lol. Yeah, I know it’s a pretty cliché beginning for writers to begin with fanfiction, but… *shrug*…[Read more]

That’s so cool! And wow, Angel is pretty old for a cat– that’s impressive. And that’s a neat story! Does it bring a little more meaning to Christmastime?

My sister and I are 3 years apart–…[Read more]

They sound adorable! How long have you had them?

I have one younger sister! And it’s a funny thing– I’ve been homeschooled only two years, last year and one grade in elementary school, but I’ve been going to…[Read more]

Haha, it’s not that I don’t like coffee; I just don’t drink it. Actually, I don’t drink anything with caffeine on a regular basis, except the occasional bubble tea, because bubble tea is awesome.

What do you think makes Jack especially realistic?

I really want to figure out the reason why some characters feel like they’re alive and others feel as real my pet unicorn.XD

Haha, yeah, as much as that trope can be interesting from a story standpoint, it rarely ever happens in real life. XD

Is there a particular story that you read/watched that does that trope well which made you like it?

@seekjustice @rochellaine @alia @valtmy @michelle @selah-chelah

Never knew that about the original Beauty and the Beast! I love these little random facts about fairy tales. 😀

Some of my favorite books are The Lord of the Rings, The Lighting Thief, The Hunger Games, and Why Is This Night Different From All Other Nights?

What are some of yours?

Haha, don’t worry about going off topic, I love a…[Read more]

I’ll be writing for a while…might be kinda in and out on here…Anyone on?

Thanks for the recommendations! I’ll definitely be checking them out.

I haven’t actually read any of the original fairy tale stories before, but my favorite Disney fairy tale would probably be Beauty and the Beast.

Not only is it a lot more interesting story wise to a lot of other Disney Princess movies, but the message is a lot…[Read more]

Yeah, rather. XD

Story and character arcs in general, really. Chauvelin is such a malevolent, evil guy, but seems so sacrificial and kind on the surface. And he’s definitely gone down the wrong road, to get there. But he’s believable, realistic in the era and story, etc, which is rare for me and super awesome! That’s neat that you want to read it- I…[Read more]

I never hear the original version of The Little Mermaid! It’s so much more interesting and has much better message than the Disney version.

Though I get why Disney changed it. As much as I love stories where the main character sacrifices their life for someone or something they love, unfortunately I don’t think a Disney Princess movie…[Read more]

XD Well, great job!

Really?

@michelle

Thanks! I love to ice skate, read, and draw. Wbu?

*recovers from hug*  Yas, same here basically! Except I told my sister about it, and she joined and I never managed to join right before they went on  hiatus, as well.

I remembered that. 😛 And I told you that you don’t come across as an introvert, girl…don’t you realize that now, with this topic of yours? XD

MICHELLE!!! *tacklehugs* How’d you end up on KP, girl? Welcome! XD So awesome to see you here! And, of course, with a profile pic of a rose… 😛
