It would be fascinating to hear more about your universe and the problems you’re exploring and wrestling with. These make for great conversation topics!

The necrofaeries: obviously I was thinking about necromancers as I was coming up with a term for fallen, evil faeries. I was thinking about how the angels of the Bible (Lucifer…[Read more]

Favorite character: Prince Willibert, mostly because of his name. And because he puzzles me to no end.

Favorite ice-cream: espresso is really good, with vanilla and something chocolate.

Where would I go? Eh, I’ll say southern France. Just because that’s what I’ve been saying lately, and it sounds cool to visit…[Read more]

That’s so cool! What made you guys move to NC and get interested in farming? I’ll have to send you the link to our farm website once I finish updating it. We started the same way, with chickens and a garden ๐Ÿ™‚

Well, it’s a pretty image anyway. I like it too.

Neat that you used to live in Minnesota! Yeah, we love our extreme temps over here. Boiling summers, freezing winters. On the whole, it’s lovely. The scenery never stays the same for long.

So with the faeries, I wanted to call back to traditional fairy tales, where you have these mystical beings who could be either good or evil, everybody has different takes on it, different stories– they seem to appear out of nowhere sometimes, and then other times they were part of the community for a long time with few people…[Read more]

Thanks for the welcome. I’m currently a terrible volleyball player! And I’m glad to hear you enjoyed Peterson’s book!

Wow. Especially in light of God’s Word, I take great delight in all three elements of Story, seeing that God does too! But when it comes down to it, I might say characters. I think God pours the most love into his…[Read more]

Interstellar has a great soundtrack, though anything by Hans Zimmer is stellar! But yeah, the story felt a bit nihilistic. But since I’m into regenerative agriculture/permaculture, and I also believe that God plans to establish His kingdom on earth after all is said and done, I really want to write a…[Read more]

Thank you. We are rejoicing in God’s healing hand! He is good (even if she had been paralysed, as could easily have been the case).

Lovely questions!

Probably hard; I enjoy whimsical storytelling, and have indulged in it. Off-the-cuff, in the moment stories. But when it’s something I really care about, I have to organize…[Read more]

Um… I am not the go-to joke person in my family. But, since it was a question: do you know Where a general keeps his armies?

Wow, we have a lot of shared interests ๐Ÿ™‚ I do love the subject of food!! We love to experiment in the kitchen in our family.

Favorite book series is a tough question: most recent is the Queen’s Theif series, but longest-standing is Lloyd Alexander’s Prydain or Lewis’ Narnia.

Definitely relate on the sunset love and reading choices! (My sister breeds dogs, but my passion for them is very tame.)

Favorite writing music: definitely soundtracks. But whatever I’m listening to, I always do it with an ear to finding songs for my WIP Spotify playlists– and the song titles have to be appropriate to my story…[Read more]

What’s the biggest thing you find KP has done to change your life & pursuit of writing?

I think it was your poem I read on the blog here last night; there was a stanza right near the middle, about God using my life, that helped me understand something. The whole thing read similar to a psalm– maybe that’s what you were…[Read more]

I have to say I love the philosophical dynamic between Steve Rogers and Tony Stark. It’s so real, and both characters are so gripping, lovable, and intense. The way they drive the action forward in the Avenger movies is fascinating to watch. Can’t say I love everything about the Avenger plotlines, but…[Read more]

Snakes are controversial, but highly interesting since about Genesis 3. Would be open to conversation.

I’ve been writing as long as I’ve been in homeschool, I guess– in my senior year I had to flesh out a short story I wrote in my junior year, and have been working on it off and on these four years since! It’s been a good…[Read more]

The first two questions I did already mention, unless I have to be more specific.
The third question: I am a fan of Tom Cruise’s The Last Samurai (the culture, the soundtrack, the story, the epicness). Obviously, Princess Bride, Lord of the Rings, um, Pirates of Penzance, to name a few favorites.
I prefer movies to shows. But I…[Read more]

We grew up with Paul O. Zelinsky’s illustrated Rapunzel, which you might be able to get from the library. Really lovely illustrations, with the straightforward old story.

And a Rapunzel retelling I just fell in love with (very different from your idea, which could be equally fun) is the Old West retelling…[Read more]

Hello best friend of my little sister.

Bugsy would agree that you’re more of an E, but you still can’t hold a candle to him in that respect.
