@daeus Thought you might like that 😉

@princessfoo  That’s perfect! Thanks!!

@Dekreel @That_Writer_Girl_99 @Dragon-snapper @Ethryndal @Daeus @Audrey-caylin @Jane-maree @Shannon @Sam-Kowal wow, thanks so much guys, all of you. Just getting the general feedback and feeling out opinion about the existing title helped me get so much more perspective.

@Jane-Maree, believe it or not, I had actually already considered Destroyer,…[Read more]

I got a prayer request: My Spanish teacher’s mom just passed away. Pray for peace for her and her family. She is one of my favorite teachers 🙂

Raspberry breath… Haha. 😛

@shannon I’ll probably be back, but for now, KP does have a really good character questionnaire. A lot of questionnaires are dumb, but this one digs into the core of what matters. Check it out in our resource library. It may or may not work for you, but I suspect it will spark at least some inspiration.

@dekreel  Oooooo….ahhhhhh.  😉

@shannon  I don’t know about you, but when I first think of a character, I think of a face/name…and something about them that is weird.  That really helps to get the creative juices flowing a little bit.

When you are actually writing characters, don’t.  Make.  Them.  Perfect.  Make them real.  Make them relatable.  Give them a problem and/or…[Read more]

Random quote:

“So. How’s life with the humans?”

@kate-flournoy ‘Victorious’ seems a little too soon. Like “oh yes here’s the book, but don’t worry they’re victorious in the end.” That could just be me though. When I started reading the blurb you have there, it made me think “Destroyer” which has a stronger sound and also shows the struggle of the story a little too?

That’s just my thoughts anyways.

@dragon-snapper Ahh! Awesome! Isn’t is funny how we can get inspiration from the smallest things, like sewing machines? 😀

@daeus  @kate-flournoy  @ingridrd  @sam-kowal  @emma-flournoy  @winter-rose  @lady-iliara  @0-0enyali0-0  @princessfoo Just to tease you guys a little bit, I’m going to give you the first few lines of the prologu…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy I agree that Victorious works. You can always use subtitles too if the title seems to plain to you.

However, it’s worth looking into new titles.

And now I’ve spent ten minutes trying to think of something and I’m coming up with nothing. 😛

@dekreel Well…yes. There is a reason. The reason was that at the time I was bored, couldn’t find a name for the castle. So I glanced around the room–this was during homeschool break–saw a Singer sowing maching, and thus it was the name of the castle was born. 😉

Ooh yay! I’m curious to see how you portray me.

@dragon-snapper  @ingridrd  Yes, you are both in the story!

“Singer?” Interesting! Why is it called that? Is there a reason?

@dekreel  That’s great news!  Congratulations!  *shakes your hand vigorously*

(And I must echo @dragon-snapper‘s question because I am just as curious…don’t feel obligated to put me into the story but…maybe?)

@dragon-snapper  You got mine.  That one was kinda easy.  😉

@dekreel Yay! I can’t wait! 😀 (Question: Am I in the story? No pressure, but I do have a tinge of writerly curiosity.)

(It’s written ‘Regnis’. It’s something spelled backwards. I’ll let you figure it out, if you wish.) 😉

@dekreel Okay, I was going to reply to you, but first I forgot and then I was busy, but enough excuses.

Mythbusters!!! Man I knew that sounded familiar.

@supermonkey42 Megamind, when Metroman and Megamind are arguing about the Heat of Revenge and the full, concentration power of the sun!

@epicaddie2  @lady-iliara  @0-0enyali0-0  @sam-kowal  @princessfoo  @dragon-snapper  @ingridrd  @everyone-else

I know a lot of you have been holding your breath for the KPA for awhile, so I’m just going to poke a small hole to let a little bit of the air out… Okay, that was a weird analogy… XD

Good news: I HAVE OFFICIALLY STARTED WRITIN…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper  @perfectfifths

Okay, as nobody has been guessing mine, I’ll just tell you: it’s from the Mythbusters
