I had a feeling this might resonate with you.

( I wanna share this discovery with other people too though, but tags are scaryyy)

In conclusion, my apologies for tempting you to reveal secrets.

Don’t apologize. Questions like that are really motivating to keep me writing since I know someone is actually interested. So thanks :]

I know I was the one asking you, but this is my reason for holding backstories back too. This is it. My characters have those quirks that are connected to their past, but if I revealed the past, the cat’s out of the bag and it feels almost taboo.

In conclusion, my apologies for tempting you to reveal secrets. I shall always be on the…[Read more]

This isn’t a rant. I just didn’t know where to post this. But I found a thing on Pinterest that I think explains exactly why I don’t like talking about my character’s backstories:

(not that all my characters have sad backstories. I’m actually a pretty nice author by comparison to most lol)

@keilah-h

Sorry if she’s acting odd. I’m still trying to figure out how to write her accurately.

“Emu. Ee-mu.” Felicity slowly sounded the strange word out to herself. She laughed.

“Emus, bird people, lizard people, trolls, disappearing boyfriends… Heh. This is insane.” She held her head in her hands, and backed away from the dead…[Read more]

Brea’s aesthetic is adorable and her faceclaim has such a stubborn expression.

Does Fel need protection?

In her mind, it’s everyone else who needs protection.

@whalekeeper

I think I’m on the same page as you on that topic, though I’m most likely to just follow where everyone else goes. If everyone were to migrate to the new  website while kp was working still, I’d go to the new website too. But I doubt that will happen. Do we even have enough active people for there to even be a risk of people…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

I’m open to communicating by email. I think everyone who volunteered has mine already…..

When I scrolled to the bottom of the page, I expected the words ‘Books‘ and ‘Shop‘ to be clickable, especially when I was on my phone. The text underneath these words very much suggests that I should just be able to click on them…

@theducktator

lol! Love it!!!

Does Fel need protection? I sense she needs protection from something.

@loopylin

Oooh. Victorian steampunk with a bit of goth, as I pictured. Brea’s aesthetic is adorable and her faceclaim has such a stubborn expression. I want to know what the quotes on Fel’s board are about.

@linus-smallprint @everyone

Definitely interested in updates.

There’s still one thing nagging me about this, since R.M. Archer commented. (And I’m thankful to her for prompting this thought.) How do we want to treat this website in relationship to the original KP community? I think we need to be cautious about this because communities have…[Read more]

@rae Glad things are going okay.

I think you’ve done pretty good. Like you said, you’re probably better off just doing what you’re currently doing rather than yapping all over the site.

@linus-smallprint

I’d love to help you with this project, but I don’t really have any strengths that someone already on the team doesn’t. I could be a moderator but I’d most likely be either too lenient or too strict; web designing is not my strong point, as I know virtually nothing of coding and the like; and on top of it all, my time on screens…[Read more]

@rae

Oh wait…I think I’ve heard you mentioned Nahim before. Oh yes…I can totally understand why it feels very special to you! No problem. Don’t feel pressured to reply back/be super active on JWM.
