@northerner Yes! I was thinking stepladder, but that’s close enough to stairs! XD
NC Stokes replied to the topic Fairytale Expectations in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years ago

@princessfoo Hey, yeah. I never thought about that. Good for the Lunar Chronicles, breaking the stereotype.
@northerner I would read that.

*dies by choking on own spit while laughing and falling off chair*
*is rushed to the “Lack of Oxygen from Awesome and/or Hysterical Laughter” section of the Aethasian Hospital* (yes that is a real thing)
*comes back and does it again*

@northerner Yes, I believe I pointed that out in the first page of Daniel’s first topic.

Hi friends,

I’m excited to announce that on October 2nd KP will hosting a panel discussion dedicated to the topic of speculative fiction!

Yes, fantasy, sci-fi, the stuff we love. I hope you’ll be there. 😀 😀 😀

Here’s the link.…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy @emma-flournoy @clairec @emily @josiahdeboer @northerner @graciegirl @catwing @winter-rose @dragon-snapper

I came up with three more ideas

1. Fools in the darkness
2. The Time Traveler’s Dilemma
3. Key to the future

For 1 and 3, I would probably have the subtitle “a time travel novel”.

@josiahdeboer The limit of 10 tags is still in existence. But we do make exceptions for announcements like this that are relevant to all members of the site. Most of them originate with the moderator team, but we do consider requests for specific posts on a case-by-case basis.

@northerner Good idea. I don’t know if we can do that outside of the…[Read more]

*salutes* Chosen one reporting for duty. So what are chosen ones supposed to do? Any ideas @dragon-snapper @kate-flournoy? I think we should eat lots of ice cream.

Btw, @northerner, if you go to the general forum page, there is a forum search feature at the top.
Mariposa Aristeo replied to the topic New Website Party! in the forum Announcements 7 years, 2 months ago

@northerner The forum statistics show KP has 482 members (I discovered that information on the main forum page).🙂

Hey all!

It is my pleasure to introduce you all to the new Kingdom Pen site–now faster /and/ mobile-friendly. 😀

As you may notice, it looks quite different. And while I think I’ve caught all the bugs, there may still be some that have evaded my eagle-eye. So if you find something, drop us a note here or email us at kingdompenmag@gmail.com.…[Read more]
Daeus replied to the topic Title for my story in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 7 years, 2 months ago

@emma-flournoy Okay.

Did anybody else feel “The Time Traveler who wasn’t ready” was off at all? @kate-flournoy @emily @josiahdeboer @catwing @northerner
Kate Flournoy started the topic Mentorship in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 2 months ago

Heyyyyyy guys! Look who’s posting again… *gulps and ducks under the table* I know I’ve been sadly absent. Life. Eighteen. Schedules. Editing. Life again. You get it. 😛

This is actually not a question about writing specifically… but rather, I want to know what you guys think about mentorship. As in, finding a mentor who will help you along…[Read more]
Daeus replied to the topic Title for my story in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 7 years, 2 months ago

@kate-flournoy Possibly. I mean, certainly, but I don’t know if the other options will sound good. “The unready time traveler” doesn’t strike me as very good. 😉

Anyway, I don’t think length is a very big problem. I’ll think through alternatives though.

What do the rest of you think of this title? @hope @emma-flournoy @winter-rose @graciegirl @d…[Read more]
Daeus started the topic Title for my story in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 7 years, 2 months ago

Hi friends,

As most of you know, I’ve written a time travel novel, but as yet, it is moanfully without a name.

I would like the title to hint at the genre, but it’s most important that it sounds cool and intriguing. I thought I’d list some ideas I’ve come up with and see if you have any other ideas or alterations.

Thank you all so much!! This is a huge help.

To answer all your sorta-questions collectively, the post is probably more along the lines of a philosophical/personal experience/just for laughs post. If that makes sense. 😛 It is divided into…[Read more]
Daeus started the topic Brainstormers this way in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 3 months ago

Hi guys,

As most of you know, a while ago I did a survey called The Reader Behavior Survey. You can find the results of that survey here on KP.

Well, I got inspired to do another one. The idea with this survey is to let readers tell us what they want to see in the novels they read. I have 13 questions so far, but I’d like to come up with some…[Read more]

Man that’s cruel and unusual punishment!! I wish I could put post pictures up of totality if only lasted about a minute but it was very neat.

@emily
Yeah my we got to face with my aunt (who’s in TX) and she said it just got darker than normal.
Yeah the lighting was so…. not eerie but not normal it was interesting indeed!
Ryanna replied to the topic Hiya, new person here! ^-^ in the forum Start HERE 7 years, 3 months ago

@Northerner Thanks! I have been writing only about half a year or a year (I don’t really remember when I started). I really love C.S Lewis, and I must confess I really enjoy Rick Riordan’s work. I honestly don’t have a favourite book – I’ll read anything you give me.

Haha, I write in the plain ol’ American style, quite boring.
Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Greetings, earthlings! in the forum Start HERE 7 years, 3 months ago

@Jessi-Rae heyyyy! Legends of Light… I know that one… XD @Hope?

Ooh, INTP/ENTP. We have one INTP I think (@northerner) but I do believe you’re the first ENTP, if you are indeed one. 😉 Welcome aboard.

Yessss. I love writing poetry too.
Emma Flournoy posted an update 7 years, 3 months ago

Hey @Northerner, I keep meaning to ask this and am only just getting around to it. How’d that Creationist essay you were doing for college go? How was it received?
- Northerner replied 7 years, 3 months ago
  
  I got 93% on the first draft and 94 on the revision, so not badly at all, I’d say :).
  - Emma Flournoy replied 7 years, 3 months ago
    
    Oh yikes, that sounds really good. Sheesh. Did the professors or whoever think you were weird, or is it normal for them to get Christian stuff in a secular college?
    - Northerner replied 7 years, 3 months ago
      
      Umm. . . well, it was the first time I’d had that particular teacher, but with others in the department, I know, I have a bit of a. . . reputation? And I talked like that in class all semester, so he probably had fair warning.
      
      It is not normal for the college as a whole, but I’ve met two Creationists there, one of whom was in Philosophy, so it’s…[Read more]

      Well good. Could be worse for sure. 😀
      (And that argument is so lame. *sigh*)
      
      Northerner replied 7 years, 3 months ago
      
      It could be a lot worse. But people bend themselves backwards to not appear prejudiced or discriminatory so much that they kind of have to do it for me whether they mean it or no. . . which gets kind of fun (yes, I enjoy a rousing debate, how did you guess?).
      (Ugh, yes, it is. People keep saying it, though, and then I have to go and explain that…[Read more]
      
      Emma Flournoy replied 7 years, 3 months ago
      
      You’re an NTP, of course you’d find that kind of thing fun. XD
      It’s so hilarious though, because they probably wouldn’t worry about it—at least not so much?—if they were dead certain your view was wrong. I dunno.
      
      HA! That video. It’s perfect. Those are some smart Neanderthals. I LOVE when those arguments are shown out for their circular…[Read more]
