Keilah H. started the topic I finally read Green Ember!! in the forum Book Discussions 2 years, 9 months ago
I finally started reading the Green Ember series and I love it! It’s so cool how the writer did the whole story with wolves and eagles (rabbit predators) as villains and rabbits as heroes. And the lore behind it and backstory–all so cool! I’m on the third book right now. What did you think of it? Who’s your favorite character? I honestly love a…[Read more]

The first book is okay. I enjoy the humor and writing even though the plot is a tad blah. The other three books are great. (Though I was kinda annoyed by the last book because nothing seems to go right!!!…. of course it also binge read the series, so by the time I got to the last book I was physically and mentally…[Read more]

There’s a lot of interesting points in this post and a lot of things relevant to what makes a good story. So I think its awesome that you wrote this, but sadly, I have never read the Wingfeather Saga before, so I cant really give my input here. But now I think I’m gonna have to to see what’s up with this and find…[Read more]

I actually read the second book first because it was the one we happened to have. I later checked the rest out from the library; therefore, I didn’t have enough time to actually analyze them or anything. Personally, I think that they are good books if you read through them at a decent pace and aren’t trying to…[Read more]

Hi Everyone! I’ve been making some rough sketches of my first two book covers, which I thought I’d share and hear whether you thought they looked good or not, and I thought maybe you guys would like to share your covers too, if you have them! It could be fun!
Book 1 and Book 2.
So I’ll go ahead and tag a bunch of people:

Well then, I’ll take back the cross out ‘cause most comedians probably could take a couple lessons from you.
No problem, I love giving anyone and everyone that Yoda quote (like. All. The. Time.) XD Anyway, that IS a dilemma, but sadly I can’t help you too much there. I haven’t been on KP for a while, (I try to stop…[Read more] -

@not-so-secret-secret-assassin
That post you wrote is awesome! And is actually very helpful, (probably more so than several articles out there), so even though it was written for the awesome writer Elanor, I just wanted to say that it was very good and actually inspired me to write an escape scene for my current novel!

I’m a tad bit late to the party, but um… here I am.
I tried reading The Wingfeather Saga a few months ago because I thought the cover was pretty epic and a lot of people on the forum liked it, but ummm…
I couldn’t finish it. And for pretty much all the reasons you listed in your essay. I can see why people…[Read more]

@not-so-secret-secret-assassin
@e-k-seaver has a point. You can like or dislike whatever book series you want.
Also, I think the dragons come into play more during the second book, and then they come in even more in the third and fourth.

Okay, cool. Honestly, I don’t care if you like it or not. It will not offend me either way. Like whatever you want book-wise. You don’t have to rest any case.

haha, I’ve got that exact thing. Zyla is crying and Kedja does scream.
The only reason that Kedja can get Zyla to leave her is that they are using Zyla to try to get Kedja to work for them by torturing Zyla (yeah manipulative evil people). Kedja can’t bear it anymore and has to get Zyla free because she can’t bear that so…[Read more]

No, I would not say all the excitement is from the last two books. What I will say is that the last books are powerful and that they drive home the lessons and themes one doesn’t catch at first glance in the earlier books. Wingfeather is one of the few series that gets better as time goes on.
Honestly, I too love…[Read more]

Elanor started the topic How do I make a non-cliche escape scene? in the forum Plotting 3 years ago
So a person escapes the bad guys. This is a characteristic of most every book I’ve read. I’m writing a prison escape in my current WIP and am wondering how to make it something that’s not just the same old thing.
Any tips and or advice would be gladly appreciated.
I’ll tag a bunch of people.

Okay, y’all, I’ve got a dilemma on my hands.
To give you a bit of background information, my main character (Emeric Dertok) has recently come back into society after eight years of living the life of a hermit. He’s working for the King (Jornan), who charged him with the task of tracking down spies trying to sabotage the government. But as enters…[Read more]

@not-so-secret-secret-assassin At first, I was like, “How DARE you call it ‘trash!’ It’s a good series!” Personally, this series is one of the only Christian fiction stories I’ve read, and to me it’s pretty good. But I get what you said with the first book–if you ‘re an adult (which I’m assuming you are for some reason) the first book seems kinda…[Read more]

My advice? If you have as much time as you say that could be spent writing and have no inspiration to do so then maybe don’t. It’s like trying to squeeze juice out of a dried lemon.
If you do however have inspiration and simply can’t type because you can’t keep your fingers from annihilating your keyboard I’d go…[Read more]
