Where art thou?

We were abandoned by the Raspberry King long before my days. What we do not remember, we do not regret. (However, this site has a long memory.)

Then our own Queen @kathleenramm , whom my generation of KeePers loyaly followed, vanished. (We hope for a safe return as she overcomes the dread land…[Read more]

You are currently the only one listed on the Meet the Team page. What happened to Kathleen? Do you still exist here?

*six years later*

Hey there, I’m Lily!  (Pretend I traveled back in time.)  First off, congrats on your two books becoming semi-finalists.  Second off, I was scrolling through the Start Here topics, looking for my friend’s sister’s username and at first glance, thought this tag said ‘Gluten Tag’ *slams palm onto forehead*  After cli…[Read more]

Sorry it took me 6 years to reply back.

Nice beard, it looks just like a beard.

I agree with you WHOLEHEARTEDLY!!!!!!!  I read that in my literature class this year and it may be one of the worst things I’ve read… 😄  We also had to read it twice–my teacher read it out loud first, then the class took turns reading out loud.  Why?  I have no idea.

So yeah, glad I’m not the only one.  I just don’t unde…[Read more]

Aside from writing, I love illustrating, painting and video making. So this definitely sounds interesting!

I don’t think that’d be boring at all!

My name is Grace and I’m a Taiwanese-American currently in Taiwan, an INFJ, and primarily a student. I don’t plan on pursuing a career as a writer and have actually kind of kept my distance from here and SE because the little time I have free I want to spend more on actual writing than on writing related stuff… but…[Read more]

1. ……… O_O That definitely wasn’t a response to that I was expecting. So wait, you knew about Tyler’s old stuff like NPI and RaB when it came out?  XD and which one of the guys who used to play with him?

2.  XD

3. Ooo! Kewl! I’ll check that out! I sort of write the music for it, but last time I had a keyboard was when I was l…[Read more]

the forums are still running and it must be costing them something to keep it going.

I don’t know if you noticed, but a while ago KP was totally inaccessible for about three months. I think Reagan stopped paying for it. We had to contact Josiah who contacted Reagan. So @reaganr…[Read more]

Thanks! I checked out your other videos on description as well. They were very helpful!

Don’t Talk About Your Book Until It’s Published

(I think you guys are right. LOL 😛 )

(I was afraid to do so before because I read an article, and although it was convincing @reaganramm and Hailey’s video was…[Read more]

(And a caveat is a warning or explanation, by the way. 😉 )

Well, I knew I wanted to publish before I go…[Read more]

Another question.

I was wondering what your thoughts were on talking and sharing about your novel before it’s published? If you’re planning to get published within the next few years, should your novel facts and characters and everything else go incognito?

For example, if I were to talk about my novel on my blog, would that be…[Read more]

I… I didn’t know you did this for me!! X’D   BTW, it’s pronounced DEE-kreel XD (see signature)

Anyway, thanks SO much for the video! It was really good advice 😀

And WELCOME BACK!!!

I need help with:

1. writing good Christian fantasy without sounding preachy
2. motivation to finish a story
3. handling multiple plot bunnies

• I need help with plotting my story’s middle. I know how it begins, I know how it should end but what lies between is a haze.
• I need help with coming up with characters who are not too similar and writing characters with very different personalities than I have.
• I need help with writing descriptions and knowing when is too much…

[Read more]

• I need help with motivation to get my writing done.
• I need help with letting myself know that my writing is worth it, and how my themes are pointing to Christ (kind of like the first one).
• I need help with developing characters, and how to make them realistic whether they are based on real people or not.

Thank you!!

• Characters. Anything and everything. I can’t seem to make an interesting character so save my life.
• Knowing when to quit a story. I tend to keep getting more ideas and prolonging the story.

I need help with

~creating enough engaging conflict in my stories

~writing about characters of the opposite gender

~not letting my writer mind drift to cliche plots and characters (this happens to me a lot)

thank youuuuuuu!

• I need help with writing in longer stints than five minutes.
• I need help with using less dialogue to explain a scene.
• I need help with being confident that I am glorify God in my writing (at least to the best of my current ability).
• I need help with figuring out when in the day I write best.

Thanks! 😀

Let’s see…

• I need help making my characters and character arcs more realistic and deep
• I need help making meaningful themes and symbols
• I need help with the show-don’t-tell concept
• I especially need help with self-doubt, and putting my identity in Christ instead of my work
• I need…

Also, have any of you used the writing software by K. M. Weiland? She’s based it off her Outlining Your Novel Workbook… it looks sooooooooooo good. There’s a video on this page:…[Read more]
