After much thought (and casually disappearing again) I have decided what I want to do.

I’m still working on developing the plotline, as it has changed a lot.

I’m not sure if I’ll ever finish this story because I change it so much, but I honestly just write for fun so I guess if it’s fun, I should be…[Read more]

You’re welcome! Our brains need room to breathe and generate ideas without rules. Sometimes we cause our problems by putting too many walls around ourselves, hehe.

@liskaboyce

You literally just answered the question I’ve been asking myself: why have I never finished first drafts? It’s because the middle of my book always feels forced!!!

There you have it! When I talk with people, either about my own work or theirs, that section in between the inciting incident and the midpoint is almost always the pro…[Read more]

@loopylin

Rallascant, you fuzzy snitch. You’re the opposite of a lucky rabbit’s foot.

I do appreciate your sass, but this is remarkably unhelpful.

@whalekeeper Do ittt

@whalekeeper @rae @keilah-h this doesn’t directly affect your characters yet but im tagging you anyway

Rallascant

Rallascant had been shooed away from the vegetable garden by the local Iris many times, but this time he was sure he would get away with it. He sat among the green leaves, legs and rabbit ears tucked in to remain as unnoticeable as…[Read more]

I have the desire to add a new little guy to this. A guy with fun frilly sleeves

Moth

Well done. Moth’s chest rose a little.

He tilted his head in a sort of shrug, eying his attempt. It looked like he had some skill – even though that was not true. His initial wish for the shot had been much humbler. “I must make offerings to serendipity in my sleep. How do I know where the arrowhead will fly?”

@liskaboyce

Yeah, the middle part of a story is always the weirdest part. Koshka and Quicksilver made good points. I think a huge part of it is coming up with obstacles, and then connecting them to lead to the midpoint.

Follow-up question. Is it possible that the structure isn’t the issue, but that it’s incredibly difficult to think of actual…[Read more]

@koshka

I’ll see if I can borrow this through my library! I was planning to get into my local library this week anyway. Interlibrary loans should give me access to this.

I haven’t read Adorning the Dark, but I’ve heard of it. I’ve heard good things about it. It has a lovely title.

@grcr

In the space of a couple days, we’ve started making new accounts for people again, and this is the result. Lots of people. 😅

This is awesome! Congrats to Whaley and Koshka for becoming mods (I already congratulated Ellette on being the Queen of KP)

@loopylin bruh

actually a random monster in soldier’s room actually makes sense y’know? not that his room is anything more than an alleyway or some cave most likely lol

Unless any random monster shows up and attacks. That would throw everything off. Not saying it’ll happen, but it’s always a possibility.

Ehehehehe

@ellette-giselle @elishavet-pidyon @keilah-h

There is a topic for explaining the roleplays now. As most of you know. I only gave basic blurbs for the most recently active three.

They are concept blurbs, not plot summaries. I could probably make plot summaries too. That will take longer, but hey, it would be helpful.

I’m thinking of Labyrinth…[Read more]

@loopylin

*Hands you an apologetic bag of gummy peach rings* Watch everything from the darkness of your hideaway.

Ahhhh there is so much new stuff going onnn *resists the urge to go hide in my box*

@quarterstaffgirl

Hi! Welcome to kp! I love your username. I’m also graduated and am working full time. Been on kp for almost four years.

but I’ve been kinda hanging around in the KP shadows for a while;

*gasp* A spy! What secrets have you witnessed??

Are you going to share some poetry or short stories on here? I love reading poetry though I’m t…[Read more]
