@e-k-seaver LOL. I imagine Andrew Peterson and N.D. Wilson would be worth it, though. Especially if you can take a book along to keep you occupied during the boring sessions.

@gracie-j I’m a type 9! (Also a complete enneagram nerd, so… if you ever want to ramble about how the system works, I’m your girl. XD)

@leon-fleming Ooh! Tu apprends le…[Read more]

@leon-fleming Sounds like fun!

@e-k-seaver That’s super cool. I might have to see about tagging along with my grandma or my dad to more of those. XD (They both work in big homeschooling circles, so my grandma, especially, goes to a bunch of conferences.)

@leon-fleming That sounds cool! What real-world mythology did you use?

@e-k-seaver You’ve met both of them? Duuuude. That’s awesome. I would love to meet them someday (Peterson especially). Maybe they’ll be at RealmMakers whenever I finally get to go. XD

@gracie-j (Haha; she was actually one of the antagonists for the short time that she was there, along with Nathaniel Hawthorne.) Gone With the Wind is right next to me now, actually. I might start it today or next week, depending if I want to go with Dostoyevsky or the Chosen first. But I’m definitely going to read it, haha.

@seekjustice Calligraphy Guild was honestly sort of wish-fulfillment. XD There’s this group of indie authors I follow who work together and are friends and whatnot that I would love to be a part of one day, plus the idea of having an in-person community of authors who work together (which they are not; that’s just an additional impossible wish,…[Read more]

(All these posts are so long I can’t read that much…)

@libby Hi! Welcome to our lovely Kingdom! I love playing piano too!

I give information about myself upon receiving specific questions, haha, because my brain is dead most of the time.

So what kind of music do you like to play? Classical or contemporary? And what sort of books do you read?…[Read more]

@gracie-j @leon-fleming

See, there’s this manga I like where all the characters are famous writers, and Margaret Mitchell is really cool. So I thought I might give hers a try. I asked my dad one day during dinner, “How long is Gone With the Wind?”

Anyways. I thought i might’ve known if it was over a thousand pages long. But at least its…[Read more]

@kathleenramm I actually base most of my quirks off of real people, haha. And I think that quirks really do make a story more attractive than a premise. XD

@libby

The Hunger Games Trilogy isn’t like any books I’ve ever read and it definitely stands out from your typical YA fiction. (I’m actually in the middle of reading it again right now) Some of the things I like about it is that the characters are complex, the theme is deep, and the writing style is so easy to read without being overly…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

It’s funny how the quirks of your characters remind me of some of my siblings.XD

I have a brother who wheres a black ball cap 90% of the time and frequently orders a root beer, a sister who collects coffee mugs and buys books on a daily basis. Though, I don’t have a sibling who wears trench coats.

For some reason, hearing…[Read more]

@kathleenramm Hmmm…*immediately forgets everything I’ve ever done, ever*

I suddenly want to know a lot more about that villain of yours.

Hmm…I’m gonna take quirks to mean “not bad things”. I have one character that’s always barefoot, another who constantly wears a white baseball cap, and another who always orders a beer but gets a root beer…[Read more]

Hi Jaydyn! Welcome to the Kingdom Pen forum!

I’m Kathleen, and I hang out here a lot in the Kingdom of Pen. (It’s quite nice btw).

Your favorite books are some of my favorite as well! Except for the Kingdom Series, although I’ve heard a lot about it, (we even have an interview with the author on KP), I still have yet to read…[Read more]

@leon-fleming

Those are some great topic ideas! You don’t mind if I steal some of them do you? And if any other topic of the week ideas pop into your head, I’d love to hear them.

Maybe a topic of the week could be, “What do you want future topic of the week to be?” XD. I bet a lot of people have some killer ideas that I haven’t thought of.

@leon-fleming

I don’t think you can go wrong with Treasure Island and Pirates of the Caribbean. There’s just isn’t enough books out there in that style! Well, maybe there are actually a ton of books like that, that I just haven’t heard of.XD (If there are please let me know.)

@lewilliams

Both scenes sound very intriguing! Are both scenes from…[Read more]

@e-k-seaver

This is awesome! Congrats! You can count on many prayers from me. 🙂

I actually wrote a whole blog post listing alternatives, lol, so if anyone wants additional options…

I’ll have to check out WriteTrack, too. That one’s new to me. 🙂

I haven’t yet decided whether or not to leave, personally. There are definitely compelling reasons to leave (as mentioned, heavy LGBTQ+ promotion and approaches to the race issue…[Read more]

The links don’t seem to be working. Welp…

I might post other links later…(like if my Goodreads account ever gets verified as an author, haha) but for now you can see my updates and things on Instagram.

Take three… (KP doesn’t like my links.)
