It’s official. Kingdom Pen is amazing. I’m going to sign up right now.

@dragon-snapper Let me just clarify: Are you saying that whenever you tried to share a message in your story, it either seemed too simple and therefore cheesy or too pushy and therefore cheesy? Or am I misunderstanding?

@zoe-wingfeather thanks for the info. 🙂 Looks like she does some pretty cool stuff.

@aratrea Exactly what you made it for, to write appealing Christian fiction that’s not ‘bored-to-tears’ type of reading. To learn how to incorporate theme into all my writing and that it would be moving. I’ll admit that I have had problems with the boring repetition for any audience. Either I was telling someone something they already knew, or I…[Read more]

@Aratrea well… I like poetry. *grins*

@kate-flournoy Hmm… a vague poetical answer. We’ll see if we can deliver on your poetical desires. 😉

@audrey-caylin Awesome! Those sound like great goals to have. Definitely keep those in mind going through the course, and at the end I’ll be asking how much the course helped you to achieve those goals.

@gretald Haha, it is an important skill to know when you need to say no to something. 😉 Definitely understand!

@anna-brie Like Daeus said, as long as all viewers are part of the same family, we have no problem with them all using the same account.

@anna-brie Like Daeus said, as long as all viewers are part of the same family, we have no problem with them all using the same account.

@anna-brie You could view it with your brother. That’s standard practice, like buying a movie and watching it with your family. I’m guessing sharing it outside your family would be a copyright violation, but of course that’s not what you’re talking about here.

@sarah-h Enlightenment age, actually. I know what you mean though. He’s not quite perfect for his era, but his outfit actually is fairly authentic. The big thing about the image is that it fits the character really well.

@Daeus hmmm… I like the silver… at any rate the gradient gives the words a bit more of a mysterious look. I’m not sure it’s such a great idea to have both gold and silver words in the same place, unless you were gonna make the title gold and the subtitle silver, because gold is so much more vibrant it’s very distracting. If you’re going to…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy @anyone-else

I thought perhaps the silver might be better with a slight gleam, so this is what that looks like. I feel like I liked it better before. One option which might work, but I don’t feel is right would be to make the subtitle silver too. Perhaps I could make the title the current gold and the subtitle the current silver.…[Read more]

@S-G-Dewey
Well, I’m late. But welcome all the same! Great to have you on board. 🙂
Fourteen siblings?! Wow. Four siblings seems like a lot to me; I can’t even imagine having that many. 😉 But, yes, I know what you mean about siblings being fun and annoying… 😛
Yup, I’m a Narnia and Middle Earth nerd, too. I think a lot of people here are.…[Read more]

@Daeus
This. Sounds. So. Cool. I will need to check with my mom (she’s the master planner, after all), but I really hope I can come!!!

@aratrea @daeus
Wow, this is SO cool! You KP staffers are pretty creative. 😉 Unfortunately, with school and everything, I don’t think I’ll be able to participate in the beta-reading portion of the process. I’m so bummed, though, because it sounds like an amazing opportunity! However, I’m the type of person who wants to say “yes” to…[Read more]

@ingridrd Great. You don’t need to tell me if you’re coming, but I certainly wouldn’t mind.

@Daeus I will check my calendar and get back to you all ASAP. This sounds so cool!

@winter-rose Only got 414 written, but I was glad to get that done.

@winter-rose If you’re still going, I’ll be on till six.
