@emily @seekjustice 😀 thanks, *STAN* appreciates you explaining

😀 It is really cool to think about all the other people in the Writer’s Corner actually writing at the same time as you.

Even Stan, who is dipping his tongue in ink over here and trying to lick a story onto the page… UGH I can’t look

@emily I’m here
And I’m writing

What exactly is a writer’s corner?

(Stan asked that, not me. OF COURSE I know what a writers corner is.)

Stan: NO YOU DON”T

@gh24682468999 The way I see it, in fantasy you can do basically ANYTHING with the story. Create new worlds, new societies, new creatures and new people. Alter the things that already exist. Make story structures that wouldn’t work in the real world, but fit together perfectly in a fantasy one (like LOTR)

So, because of that, you have a lot of…[Read more]

@photobloggergal By the way, I really like that photo of the spiderwebs you took

@photobloggergal Kinda late for me to say hi, but welcome to Kingdom Pen anyway (the awesomeestist place on the internet)

😀 😀 That’s so cool you like photography, I have a brother who’s 13, too, and he is a super photographer. He’s taught me a couple a things, so I know a little bit, but he’s really good.

That’s neat that you use a T2i 😀 My…[Read more]

@dekreel you mean by “they find the riddler” they find the person who gave them the riddle? But in the excerpt it looked like the riddler already came to them

As far as what they do in between… well, in my opinion they would try to solve the riddle, of course. Once they’ve landed on the planet and need to find the answer to the riddle, they’ve…[Read more]

@shannon Historically, moving mail was kind of a long process. People had to trek it a long ways to get to its destination, without a fast means of transportation. Plus, a lot of the poorer people couldn’t afford to send a lot of letters. In a rural area (like the gold fields of California would have been early on) it could be kind of tricky to…[Read more]

@emily If you have time to write it, pleeassee let us read it 😀

And… okay, so fantasy is pretty similar to a regular story… except, basically, you can do whatever you want with the characters and world. You want to make sure you still have elements like a conflict or something the characters are trying to accomplish (inner or outer) like…[Read more]

@gh2468246899 , 🙂 great question

I usually write fantasy, and in my opinion that’s a genre that a writer can quite easily present truths about the world or the gospel.

Saving others and giving yourself up for someone or a greater cause is a good way to point to the truth, and there’s also other things

Writing stories about emptiness or…[Read more]

@introvert-girl 😀 Welcome to the awsomeestist place on the internet

Your story sounds really cool. I have a bunch of WIPs too

Stan says hi, too:D (Stan is my underdeveloped dragon pal)

@kate-flournoy 😀 I finished it.

It’s amazing:D

The doc won’t let me make any comments though

Well, Stan wants to be king someday, too. But I really think he ought to wait until maybe he grows wings…

Plus, he doesn’t have anything half so nice as ice cream to offer the KeePers

@inkling-for-christ 😀 That is really intriguing. I love hearing about people’s book ideas. Yes, post the synopsis sometime! That would be epic.

Stan is… well, actually, I don’t what breed he is. He’s a runt hatchling, basically, and was thrown out of his nest at birth. So I rescued him…

@0-0enyali0-0 😀 Welcome to the awesomeestist place on the internet

I’m trying to finish my first long work of fiction right now too
Your story sounds really interesting:D I wrote a story involving pirates once, too

What are some of your favorite books? Do you like fantasy?

@inkling-for-christ Hi:D and welcome to the awesomeestist place on the internet

Stan says hi too (He’s my pal, and a dragon)

He wants to ask you what your book is about, but he’s too shy. So he’s making me ask.

I am a huge LOTR and Narnia fan as well:D

Although, maybe not as huge as you. I can’t write in Elvish :O

Anyways. WELcOME to the community

@dekreel

1. Name- Stan

2. Species- Dragon (underdeveloped)

3. Origin- Abandoned at birth and thrown out of nest, rescued by me

4. Description of outward appearance-  About the size of a dinner table. Maybe a little smaller, depending on the relative size of the dinner table. His coloring is orange and yellow, and he had scaly spikes over m…[Read more]

@dekreel He’s about the size of a dinner table. Maybe a little smaller, depending on the relative size of the dinner table. His coloring is orange and yellow, and he had scaly spikes over most of his body. On his back are two wing stubs that are about a foot long. His neck is covered in loose scales that bend when he moves. And his eyes change…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy I’d love to give you feedback

I should have time to read it by Friday or Saturday, and I’ll see if I can think of any useful suggestions. I already read the first couple paragraphs, and I’m really intrigued.

I don’t know very much about the Rooglewood contest, but I can definitely read the story, probably in an hour or two;D

Good…[Read more]

@dekreel 😀 yep, Stan is my dragon, although I don’t think he likes me saying he’s “mine”

He would love to be in your story! (He’s thrashing around in delight right now)

You know, I think appreciation for him really does do wonders. He has grown a LOT since coming to Kingdom Pen (And he can breathe a flame as long as a matchstick now, which is a…[Read more]

@dekreel *jaw drops* *Stan immediately starts howling and I don’t know why*

Okay, well, I’m a dragon lover. And a fantasy lover. And a Lord of the Rings lover. And so is Stan:D

(Stan wants to be in the story but I keep telling him he’ll slow y’all down what with having no wings)

So, yeah, do it! 😀 😀 That would be awesome
