1st section:

1)  I like the opening sentence 😉

2)  In the second paragraph, I think it would flow better if you shortened some of the sentences by omitting unnecessary words/details or splitting the sentences into two sentences

3)  “The loud whirring of the distant, useless generator breaking broke the howling of the wind through jagged pea…[Read more]

Hey!!  I was thinking I could look through each post if you wanted me to and proofread each separately (so I don’t write all the changes in one long post).  Sound good?

Hello!!  Welcome to KP!  I’m Ella and I used to be homeschooled, but now I go to a classical Christian school.  I loooovve cats, working out, basketball, listening to music, and writing thriller/suspense/dystopian books.  My cat is a brindle named Jasmine and she’s super sassy! 😂

I know everyone’s asked you a lot of questions alr…[Read more]

Would your character rather be able to have extreme jumping skills or be able to maneuver every maze?

Isa:  maneuver every maze

Andrew: extreme jumping skills

New question:

Would you rather go on a cruise on the fjords in Norway or go to the Caribbean?

@devastate-lasting

Well, the saying did come from Chinese characters so that makes sense.

@gracie-j

Now it makes a bit more sense that the plots were the same. XD

Just curious, if you had to write a fairytale retelling which fairytale would you choose?

Oh, the author is Jennifer A. Neilson. Her most popular book is The False Prince, which is…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

Oof. Yes. Disappointing endings are no stranger to me.

There’s actually a Korean expression to describe stories that start out really awesome but end badly. The literal translation is, “the head of a dragon and a tail of a snake.” My siblings and I use this expression a lot unfortunately. XD

I can tell that you really care…[Read more]

@emberlynn

Cool! I’ll be putting it on my to-read list for sure.

As the cat gazed down at the twinkling little lights, everything went quiet–then the world went black.

@devastate-lasting

Hhmm… I’ve been looking for looking for some good new shows for my siblings and I to watch. From what you and @seekjustice said I may have to watch it.

I love stories that focus on the small simple things in life that get overlooked. What I’ve realized recently is that a story about someone trying to open up a successful pub…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

Well, even if it’s biased, I’ll still take the compliment any way! 😀

Agatha Christie gang, here I come!

@gracie-j

I looked up Anne Rice just now, and I didn’t realize there were so many Christian Vampire authors. (She is one of a couple others I know), The market must be much bigger than I first realized.

@devastate-lasting

I’ve met Josiah twice I think. First when we had a week long KP retreat at our house, then again at my brother’s wedding. Even though I wasn’t apart of the KP team at the time of the retreat, it was really fun having all the KP members stay at our house. I think they were supposed to be working, but they were just eating…[Read more]

@scoutfinch180

The characters are good in The Wingfeather saga? Now I must read it. Characters are what make or break a story for me.

Oh, yes. Those filler episodes. XD I mean, they definitely aren’t the best of AtLA, but I somehow still enjoy them. (Probably because I like the characters). Do you have a particular episode of the series that s…[Read more]

@seekjustice

Oooh, yes. Characters and subplots. Those can so quickly get out of hand. XD It’s cool that your planning on rewriting one of your first novels! What’s the premise?

@scoutfinch180

Haha. I’m pretty sure that I too have some very cringey dialogue haunting my laptop as well. Dialogue is still something today that I struggle with…[Read more]

@scoutfinch180

Hi! And welcome to the KP forum! I’m Kathleen and about a year younger than you and am a part of the KP team.

Congrats on making it to the final stretch of your novel! So many of my WIPs die out before they ever get close to the climax. Your premise is really interesting and definitely a book I’d want to read. Sci-fi has always…[Read more]

Ooo, can I join?

Would your character rather give money to a random charity or to their crazy uncle (or whatever relative they have that’s crazy)?

Isa:  random charity

Sawyer:  crazy uncle

My question:

Would your character rather choose all the rooms in their own castle (spa, workout room, etc.), or would they rather all the rooms in the…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

Man, I could use some of your confidence. XD I usually have the opposite problem. I sometimes get so down about my writing abilities that it discourages me from writing.

@gracie-j

Well, out of all the mistakes to make, jumping into to writing super early isn’t a bad one to do! At least starting before ready is better than not…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

Thanks!

As the smoke gathered around their feet, they were gone–all disappeared except him.  

Ooo, can I join?!?!!!

She stood five feet away from where I was hidden in the shadows, staring at the screen where the greatest secret of humankind was displayed:  Your life is a lie.
