The fledgling Artist

@celticcailin My email is imexinart@gmail.com and be sure to let me know who you are in the subject line.  You might send it to a few other people, though, cause I am not sure I will be much help. 🙂

@filewriterbase13x Have you seen the Character Search Corner that Dekreel made?  It’s got a very extensive list of KP characters which should help you with writing any KP fiction.

Here’s the link in case you haven’t seen it yet.

@jess-penrose Good luck on your class! And congratulations on the words you got in. Unfortunately, I can’t banish this distraction. I’m currently in a hotel room with other people. The best I’ve got is my back is to the tv and my earbuds are on high (not devastatingly high). 🙂

@jess-penrose Thanks! For the most part it’s coming along nicely. Of course, it’s a little hard to write with the tv on in the room. 🙂

@jess-penrose It’s about a girl who loses her family when she’s six. After ten years of living as a thief she gets caught stealing from the royal family, a crime punishable by death. However, they give her the option of becoming the queen’s handmaiden or execution. The problem, she blames the royal family for the death of her family and hates them…[Read more]

@jess-penrose Oh, that sounds cool!

@jess-penrose I’m working on Clouded Fury. What about you?

@jess-penrose Ahoy! I’m writing too. 🙂

@skye I apologize for pelting you with questions without answering them for me too. 🙂 I am fifteen and we live in Missouri even though we are moving.  What book are you writing, and what is your main character’s name?  My book I am working on (the most prominent one anyway) is called “Mahinia”, and the main character is a girl named Mahinia.  …[Read more]

@skye Neat!  I like drawing horses and people too.  Your profile picture is cute. 🙂  Where do you live?

@aratrea Where can I find that sheet on Story Embers?

@alia Wonderful!!!  😀

@ingridrd @notawriter Both of you could draw him, if you’d like! Thank you soooo much. 😀

I will be happy to draw a character in return, just let me know.

@gh24682468999 Also, having your MC’s personality different than your sidekicks personality can be more interesting and realistic than if they are the same.  I guess, all of your characters will be different while always having a little of you in them too.

@alia. Ooh, I love it!  Now I want to read the whole thing!

@gh24682468999 Hi Grace!  This is a cool question. 🙂  I’m going to answer it for myself, but I have no idea if my methods are the same as everyone else’s. 😀

Well, I read in the front page of every book where the author has the disclaimer which says something like “any resemblance to any persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental,” and I w…[Read more]

@annaberens. Hi!  Welcome to the Kingdom of Pen!  Do you know how to post topics and such?  Glad you are here!

@celticcailin Hi!  Very few of my songs turn out fit to sing. 🙂  Do you feel comfortable posting any of your songs so we can see them?  (Its totally fine if you don’t.)  Sounds like you already have some better advice anyway. 🙂

@gh24682468999 I think my favorite thing about writing is creating my characters!  I never thought when I began writing that I would feel so close to my characters.  Sometimes I’m like, “I am so sorry I have to put you through this, my dear character, but its for the best I promise!  You will triumph in the end!”  🙂

Is it your characters per…[Read more]

@jess-penrose Hello!  Cool!  What kind of music do you compose?  My brother is a classical style composer.

Seekjustice recommended that I read poetry by Banjo Patterson and Henry Lawson. 🙂

@seekjustice I’m going to get off now, and I guess you won’t be here when I get back.  Jess, I might be back in about an hour for a little bit if you’re sti…[Read more]
