Thank you for tagging me! I’m glad I didn’t miss this:) It hooked me right on the sentence where the siren’s tail is mentioned and from there I was reeled right into the story. The songs and aesthetic were awesome, the only suggestion I can make in that area is that the second line of the third song felt kind of prolonged and…[Read more]

Aw darn, oh well:) Thank goodness for copy and paste right? Thankfully I copied the post before posting in case it went wacky like my posts do sometimes 🙂

Hi JC! I think this new subplot sounds amazing, (and that you should totally go for it and see what happens:D ). But more importantly here, I haven’t been on KP very much lately…[Read more]

*Sigh* my post didn’t come through, did you get it in your notifications? I can always re-post it if it didn’t:)

@joycaroline

Hi JC! I think this new subplot sounds amazing, (and that you should totally go for it and see what happens:D ). But more importantly here, I haven’t been on KP very much lately and I apologize if I missed it, but why’d you stop working on TAS?! I mean I think it’s an amazing story! So in response to your question of whether or not…[Read more]

Welcome to KP! It’s awesome to have you here! 😀

@power

…These poems are pure power! Wow. Okay, first of all, welcome to Kingdom Pen! Awesome to have you join us 😀 And second of all, your poetry is amazing! I love warrior-themed prose and poetry and these… these are just Incredible! Selah was my favorite, but in honesty, they all are packed with power. Amazing work! The one with the…[Read more]

Hi Alexa! So anyway, (you can ignore this post if you want really 🙂 ), I was thinking, since I heard you’re having some writer’s burnout – very sorry to hear this – instead of writing a reply to my post, how about just writing one all about how your writing has been going lately and what exactly has you burned out and stuff like…[Read more]

@gracie-j

Are you kidding? Grace Johnson for an author’s name is amazing! Like I reference it to people and your site and it always sounds perfect. It reminds me a lot of Jane Austen or a Bronte 🙂

@joy-caroline

Ooh, I love that! ‘Joy C. Woodbury’ looks, sounds, and is, awesome, (I agree, the middle initial thing is pretty cool).

Thank you! 😀 Me too, I love CSFTS. I think my favorite books have gotta be the ones for writers, (have you read those? I think there’s only two of them so far). My sister prefers the cat compilations which also…[Read more]

@writerlexi1216

I think that using your initials would be an excellent choice! (You’re so right, it looks amazing!)
*Whew* that’s good to know! I am so glad that I’m not 🙂

@writerlexi1216

WHOA, my link went through!!! 😀 😀 (I think the secret is perhaps to post it as a cut and paste instead of as a link) Cue the fireworks!! XD

@writerlexi1216

I think that in fantasy, initials are a continuous popularity, like say J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, and J.K. Rowling. Although on the other hand, other fantasy stars like Niel Gaiman just stick with their real name and go with that.
Some writers like to take on pen names for the obvious reasons like privacy and genre-switching or…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

*Gasps* THAT IS BREATHTAKING! You don’t have to change a single thing, I absolutely love it, thank you so so much!! 😀 😀 😀

@joy-caroline

Huh, I’ve never been able to really word my struggle with plots before, but you just did. I mean that is the EXACT problem I have. I have all these scenes and big events and a grasp of the concept, but it just feels like these big boulders of plot points with pieces of string tied from one to the other for the characters to cross to…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

XD Well, JC sounds awesome. Kinda like CS in Clive Staples Lewis or JRR like Tolkien 🙂 Oh yes, that is true. You are still expected to publicize; one of my poems is going to appear in a Chicken Soup For The Soul book, and they’re already sending me information, informing me on all the hows and whens and dos and don’ts of what they…[Read more]

@nova21

Hi Ella! I may be able to help you on the level of a depressing theme getting to you. I have done it in the past where a theme or plotline that I feel should be in my writing. Or a theme I think will make my writing better or one that feels like a strong theme. I do it because I to, literally need strong themes in my work to keep my love…[Read more]

@relia

Hi Relia! Hey, this is awesome that you’re doing this!! If you want, could you illustrate my MC of my current novel:) Here is her picture below that describes her nearly perfectly:
