One of my friends from The Author Conservatory is doing a fundraiser for Rapha International, and I wanted to share it with you all.

Rapha International provides healing, hope, and freedom to girls rescued from trafficking. From today until the 5th, my friend will be donating all of the proceeds from…[Read more]

I have not been particularly active lately what with #adulting and all that, so I wanted to pop in and hang out with you all for a little bit. <3333

This is a modified blog tag that I’m borrowing from the lovely Sarah Baran at TheSarcasticElf.com (seriously, if you don’t follow her blog, go do that right now; it’s full of wit,…[Read more]

Lydia, here. 🙂 So, I thought it’d be fun to start an inspiration exchange thread!

This is a place where we can all dump interesting photos or dialog prompts we happen to find or come up with, and it’s also somewhere where we can resort to if we need inspiration! Post as many prompts/pictures as you’d like, but please make sure they…[Read more]

SO! I am working on my draft of book 1 of my series, and in it, my female MC (Arabella’s) All Is Lost moment is when my male MC (November) is injured by…[Read more]

What’s so amazing, you ask? Well, first off, I moved out of my parent’s house about half a year ago now, which has really given me less time to write now that I’m working a full-time job and…[Read more]

This post was actually made because I could use a little bit of help with something about her, and it also kinda includes ano…[Read more]

*regrets immediately*

JK. Anyway, I had this idea a while back to make this post where we could come here and talk about our WIPs and MAJOR SPOILERS AND PLOT TWISTS THAT WE ARE SOO EXCITED ABOUT AND HATE HAVING TO KEEP SECRET FROM FRIENDS AND FAMILY WITHOUT HAVING TO DISCLAIMER IN THE POST!!

Thus this forum was…[Read more]

It’ll actually be for two separate projects. One is a middle-grade contemporary novel, and the other is a YA fantasy. If you’re up for helping me brainstorm, either (or both!) need work, so anyone who can, pretty much? I’ll give the tags here, and then put…[Read more]

and I’ve made some aesthetics I wante…[Read more]

The problem is, I don’t get out much. Honestly, I’m pretty picky about what I read, so modern secular works are very rarely added to the list, and I am pretty clueless about what’s actually on the shelves. I know I…[Read more]

ANYWAY!! I’m wondering how…[Read more]

*cues the high-pitched screams*

But my next project is a middle-grade novel featuring a 12-year-old MC who gets herself into all sorts of scrapes.

The problem is, I’m not naturally a humorous writer. It’s something I’m trying to work on in this story, true, but a very not funny writer…[Read more]

ooh, I could talk about this for DAYS

I quite like shy, sensitive male characters who do a lot of introspecting. Bonus points if they’re traumatized/have a tragic past. Dark mysterious characters who push people away because they’re afraid of hurting them get me every time. Oh, and the smooth,…[Read more]

They are, sub-genres of fantasy are kind of my babies. XD

A little bit. Her symbiote enhances her abilities to some extent, so she does have better vision in general. The glowing eyes thing isn’t the same as cats, because cats have a special layer in their eyes that cause it. I haven’t determined the exact mechanics of it, but…[Read more]

Yes, Chamomile is absolutely amazing! And my goodness, that sounds so cozy; I need that right now! xD Oh, I love movies! I have quite a few favorites, so I’ll just name a few.

• Little Women (1993 + 2019 renditions)
• From Up on Poppy Hill
• Whisper of the Heart
• Hamilton (Broadway musical)
• Newsies (Broadway musical)
• Lemonade…

Hi, Ella!

You are so sweet, thank you! <3

It truly was helpful! I loved CWW a lot and definitely hope to participate again next year!

Ahhh, a fellow tea drinker! Literally none of my friends like tea, so this is amazing! My favorite is lavender chamomile. 🙂

So, with book journaling, I’ll typically write book reviews, books I recently…[Read more]

‘My’ fanfic was actually a co-author project with my friend and my sister, and it was about two sister cats who had opposite powers and etc., etc.

I did love Thor Ragnorok! I like Norse mythology and though nearly…[Read more]

Yeah, not having the time to write during the school season makes perfect sense. I’m homeschooled, so I don’t have that problem as much, but I can still understand what you’re saying.

Those stories both sound great! How far are you along in them?

Besides writing for my blog and for Kingdom Pen (which I just started doing), I have been…[Read more]

Yes, I really need some new writing friends! None of my in-person friends really like to write, so the internet is the next best thing. Thanks for looking at my blog!

So… it sounds like you haven’t really been writing a lot lately, but when you do write, what do you like to write about?

Thank you for the welcome! I am currently reading an ARC by an author I have never heard of. I believe her name is M. Liz Boyle. I haven’t heard of the book you mentioned! The name sounds interesting!

Those things are awesome! I’m not much into sports, though. However, I enjoy watching them!

And your question! That is challenging. 😂 I lo…[Read more]

@trahia-the-minstrel

True. True. I actually liked the three introductions when I first read it too. I thought it was a deliberate poke at all the fantasy clichés. I hoped the story would be a somewhat fun yet heartfelt parody of the common fantasy stories. However, the rest of…[Read more]

Any tips and or advice would be gladly appreciated.

I’ll tag a bunch of people.

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]

Awwwww, Ella, I am SO, SO, SO, SO sorry to hear that. 💔 I had covid over a year ago, so I can DEFINITELY relate (except my school was online, so I somehow managed to be sick with covid and keep up with school all at the same time… don’t ask me how). I just wanted to let you know that (1) you’re not alone and (2) I’ll keep you in my…[Read more]

you didn’t have to cross the “better than a comedian” part out. I’ll take that compliment proudly.

Thanks for the story, the yoda quote, and tips. But honestly, time isn’t my problem. I have several hours of free time a day where I just lay down and stare up at the sky and contemplate my life and daydream about what could have…[Read more]

I recently exited a season of stress, and even though I’m a loosely-scheduled homeschooler, I know what that’s like mentally.

XD I prolly dealt with it in a somewhat wrong way (more time with friends, and more comfort food than usual) but as soon as I let myself rest maybe cry and very much vent emotions I simply leaned on Jesus. That…[Read more]

Girl, I really just want to wrap you up in a big hug. I have a pretty good understanding of how you feel and it absolutely sucks. I’m sorry you’re having to deal with it.

I also have chronic health issues, though not covid related, and with them comes a lot of chronic pain and chronic fatigue, so I get you there. It’s really hard trying…[Read more]

Awww that literally made my day!!! Thank youuu <33

I remember yours too!! (well, the idea anyhow XD) Yours sounds like a very inventive and creative idea for a dystopian!!! I normally don’t like the dystopian genre much because most of the time they feel like a…[Read more]

Life and school can be so overwhelming. Sometimes if feels like there’s an heavy weight on your shoulders at all times and you can never catch a breath. And no, your post didn’t come off as complaining at all! It just isn’t realistic to never talk about things that aren’t so positive. It’s good to talk about what you are struggling with.…[Read more]

Okie dokie, yay!!

Welll, I’m going to work on Smoke and Mirrors for this nano XD It needs it bahaha. Did you read any of the chapters of it from when I uploaded a couple on KP? If you didn’t, it’s basically an Urban Fantasy about a girl with a magic necklace and ties to another world.

What’s yours about??

I’m…[Read more]
