Haha 😛 I’m a qualified dog trainer and trained dogs professionally before the pandemic and I’d like to get back into it in a few years, I mostly read animal behaviour books to deepen my knowledge. But I do also like reading them for curiosity’s sake.

Hmm… personally I’m not sure what I would have done different. It seemed to me…[Read more]

@kathleenramm

I’ve read mostly nonfiction, animal behaviour books this year which probably isn’t going to be very interesting for ninety nine percent of the KP population 😛 The last fiction book that I read which wasn’t a reread was Wuthering Heights. 

What I liked:

-The Yorkshire moor aesthetic. I love the moors and the general vibe of b…[Read more]

@kathleenramm I know you said most recent, but looking at my books, I’m going to go with the third most recent book I read, Lost Stars by Claudia Gray.

It’s a Star Wars book I bought ages ago but never got around to. Glad I finally did, though. I liked how it was slightly cleaner than most YA out there. I did not like how I failed to see that…[Read more]

@maryg3 I just meant like planning out blog posts ahead of time, writing them ahead of time, etc. It’s always easier to be on top of that and knowing what content you’re going to publish on your blog ahead of time than scrambling for ideas lol. I don’t know if Wix has this feature, but with WordPress it’s nice to be able to write and schedule…[Read more]

That’s so exciting, @maryg3! I’d recommend figuring out who your target audience is, and writing on topics that interest them. I definitely think it’s important to have a home page, blog page, contact, and about page at least. I also recommend doing some branding work, like figuring out your blog’s mission, target audience, plan content, and also…[Read more]

@maryg3
Hey! I’ve never tried using Wix before so I can’t give you any specific advice regarding that, but I have been maintaining a blog for almost 5 years at this point.

As to what you can write about…well, people often suggest just writing about one topic, because that way anyone who stumbles on your blog will immediately know whether or not…[Read more]

@writerlexi1216 Thank you!

@gracie-j *honestly doesn’t know because hasn’t read that much Jane Austen*

@writerlexi1216 *stretches* Hngh…right now I’m currently serialising one of my works (finally!) and now I’m working on the backlog for something else for Crazy Writing Week… Also working on a short story but at the same time I kind of want to write something else…I don’t know what though. Oh, and Thirteen Ways, of course. For once I’m on schedule.

@precious-y I would say my villain is a central character, though right now I have the POVs of the villain, the hero, and the villain’s friend. There’s a lot more characters than I anticipated, ha… Maybe this will be longer.

Hmm….villain character development… Kingdom Pen has a lot of great articles on them! Since your characters are…[Read more]

@zatara Oh, I like beginning and ending stories. When I start a story, I almost never know where it’s going to go, except with maybe a mental image of the end, and when I end it, it feels so bittersweet, like I’m saying goodbye to a friend.

@will_starke I don’t really watch other stuff on YT besides piano, lol, so do give me a link. It would be mighty helpful to me.

@imwritehere1920 Heh heh, so it seems.

@will_starke You still didn’t drop your YT link, dude.

@elfwing Perhaps, perhaps. Heh.

@elfwing Beautiful. Too bad mine already have. Several times. On a day-today basis.

@gracie-j Yes. You are that obvious. *tries to think up suitable 1700’s romance novel to compare to*

@kathleenramm Mm…I don’t think that watching movies and reading other books really are considered something different, ha… But after my teacher died my writing changed a lot, I think.

@not-so-secret-secret-assassin Pfft, I don’t mind. It was much more refreshing than people saying out of the blue “oh yeah, by the way, I like pineapple on pizza” or “I can’t stand this heathenistic ritual”. At least he acknowledged me, ay?

I feel like we’ve been stealing each other’s welcome questions for a long time now, lol. But isn’t that…[Read more]

@keilah-h Nice, nice. Do you post your fanfictions anywhere?

@will_starke *crying from mirth*

Are you sure?

Are you absolutely sure? Because you look somewhat familiar to me, heh. Then again, my facial recognition skills are pretty bad.

(Has everyone been stalking my welcome posts? Is that why all the newcomers lately have been answering this question? Is it? Fine then, I should come up with a new…[Read more]
