@princessfoo Haha! 😀  I have gotten some strange looks from my sister upon saying things like that…

Thanks for answering!  This is a fun topic. 😀

@dekreel *speaks sweetly and logically* It looks like a wolf tail would look if it were shaved.  A lot of canines shave their tails for aesthetic appeal.

Anyway, I promised that if you behaved enough like a human I wouldn’t make you disappear.  So you’re safe for the present.  Just don’t do too much of that growling and scratching random wa…[Read more]

@destiny Oh, my goodness!  I completely forgot about that wonderful book!  “Kerplink, kerplank, kerplunk!” is so much fun!  Soooo, that book title is crossed of my list.  Thanks! 😀

As for your characters…

Character 1: I created the names Lurnaz and Landke Gabis, and because they have the hard “s” sound like Paradaisia I think they could wor…[Read more]

@rochellaine  *shill voice* I AM NOT! Look at this tail! Does it look like a wolf’s tail to you?!

*whimpers* Don’t… make me… disappear…

@dekreel I have never scratched walls in ecstasy, but I can understand a wolf feeling the need to do so.

(Because, my dear, you are technically a wolf.)

Hi @destiny Your post isn’t showing up, so I’m reposting after copying it from my email:

@rochellaine @kaya-young @ aislinn-mollisong @dekreel @ daughteroftheking @ingridrd @ his-instrument

I have a few characters that I need help naming for one of my fantasy series…

Well, technically I have two entire armies of nameless characters for this se…

@aedesia  WELCOME, my dear cousin, to the bestest place in Cyberspace!! *scratches walls in ecstacy* 😀

@rochellaine  Technically that’s what she doing: introducing herself. Just in the wrong……. Yeah *sheepish grin*

@aedesia Hi! Welcome!  You should introduce yourself in the “Start Here” section of the forum so we can get to know you. 😀

If you want us to help critique your short story, could you post a shareable link to it in a google document?  If you don’t know how, I can explain, or you can probably google it to get the information.

When you’re ready f…[Read more]

@warrenluther04 Usually when people want beta-readers here on KP they post a link to a google doc in the “Novel Critique” or “Short Story Critique” sections of the forum, then tag some people and ask them to look it over.  Sometimes we ask for comments directly in the comments section of the google document (In that case you have to “allow…[Read more]

@that_writer_girl_99  Ooh, boy. Let’s try this…

Here is a little tactic for writing a compelling, and non-cliche fantasy story: Diversify your world. By all means include dragons, elves, knights, old parchments and/or a mentor or two — because those are AWESOME. But imagine how much more awesome your world would be if you added a unique…[Read more]

@christianna-hellwig  Greetings, and welcome to the bestistest place on the internet! (Or as I like to call it: The bestest place in Cyberspace) 😀

Ooh, music! I really want to learn violin. I can play cajon pretty well, and I can play “Take Me Out to the Ball Game” and “The Imperial March” on the piano X)

I’m glad you have decided to join us!…[Read more]

@rochellaine, right, that makes sense! 😀 I thought it was a little…um…unusual.

Also, totally agree with your description of how a man or woman is ready for marriage. This would be our family’s thoughts too.

And yes, yes, yes! You are 100% right! A woman’s highest calling is being a wife and mother! I’m tired of people talking about women’s…[Read more]

@gh24682468999, Oh no! Timing can be a bit of a nuisance with live stuff, hey?

@seekjustice Ummm, which Joseph?  There were two important ones.  I’m assuming you mean the one from Genesis, not the one from Matthew and Luke?

Yeah, I would never think of crushing on most of the characters in the Bible, no matter how much I admire them.  But for some reason Jonathan really appeals to me as a man, not just a hi…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 Quillon is one of my favourites 🙂

@clairec uhh….*starts to sweat furiously* Not sure. It was a long time ago. But I am definitely now going to go and reread A Little Bush Maid and see if I can track down a hardcopy of the others.

@rochellaine

Ha, I’ve always liked Joseph a lot, but I’m not sure if I would say I had a crush on him, just that I really like him and look up to…[Read more]

Getting back to the original topic…Has anyone read The Courtship of Miles Standish?  I really loved John Alden in that because the poor guy had to fight it out with himself about whether to help his best friend court the girl that he was actually in love with himself.

I also adore Peter in Not Regina.

And I’ve always wondered: Is it sa…[Read more]

@Ariella-newheart Oh cool! You’re exactly right I’m from Middle-Earth (or from Australia, take your pick ;P)

@ariella-newheart Oh, I had this same problem with one of my books… 🙂

Since this is a series you are writing, the easiest way to do it without confusing the readers might be to make only a few characters the important ones in each book.  If the others are background characters in one book, and then they become important characters in another…[Read more]

@ariella-newheart  Good question! I have struggled with the exact same thing in my KPA (that’s Kapeefer Adventure, sort of like the LOKD). I guess it depends on the series: How long it is, and when and where your MC(s) are traveling. If you have to put in all your recurring characters, you could either alter the characters so they fit each scene,…[Read more]
