@sleepwalkingmk oh HEY ADORA!!! So cool to see you here! And you’re an MK? Somehow I totally missed that before. XD
@itisastarrynight that sounds way too awesome! I love that idea!

Josiah DeGraaf replied to the topic Discussion for Video Seven: Negative Character Arc in the forum Discussion Questions 6 years, 10 months ago
@sleepwalkingmk Good thoughts–the records of the biblical kings in Kings and Chronicles form some really interesting case studies of Experiments in Living & Poetic Justice. You can certainly use dramatic irony like that to create catharsis; in recent storytelling, Rogue One also uses a similar narrative technique in similar fashion (albeit with…[Read more]

Josiah DeGraaf replied to the topic Succession House Question in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 11 months ago
@sleepwalkingmk Great question. I believe the details are currently being kept under-wraps, so to learn what Succession House is looking for, email Christy at cjsomerville@gmail.com. She’s pretty easy to talk to and will let you know what kind of auditions she’s looking for and what the contest will be like.

@sleepwalkingmk *wipes away happy Christmas tears*  This is adorable and heartwarming. I literally had one suggestion. (Btw, I am “Anonymous” on the document.) Brilliant work! 🙂

@sleepwalkingmk Nice! I’ve put in a couple of comments on the actual doc for you. 🙂

@sleepwalkingmk I like it. I actually enjoy the stillness of it. 👍

@sleepwalkingmk *grins ear to ear* This is so sweet!! Let’s see… I like how you set the scene, but I also think you should spend more time talking about what the narrator is thinking. It’s a little idle right now, talking mostly about the things going on around her. It’s still awesome though! Also, “a while” is one word: “awhile.” 🙂
Nice job!! 😉

Josiah DeGraaf replied to the topic Homework for Videos 6-8: Developing Character Arcs in the forum Writing Assignments 6 years, 11 months ago
@sleepwalkingmk I think that’s a really good idea. Three EiLs are hard to fit into one book, so splitting it into two books seems like a wise move!

Josiah DeGraaf replied to the topic Homework for Videos 6-8: Developing Character Arcs in the forum Writing Assignments 7 years ago
@sleepwalkingmk Apologies that I’m just now getting around to this. Glad you’re learning a lot from these lessons. 😀 I like the fact that you’re weaving in a difficult choice for the protagonist into the end of the Venn diagram there. I wonder if you could also include a scene before her character arc which foreshadows that sacrifice scene–but…[Read more]

@sleepwalkingmk Apologies for taking so long to respond to this. I love that story. Aravis’ character arc is probably my favorite in that story, and it’s excellent!

Josiah DeGraaf replied to the topic Discussion for Video Five: Character Arcs in the forum Discussion Questions 7 years ago
@sleepwalkingmk Yeah–it’s funny how that works. I wonder at times if it’s God’s way of showing us that we /aren’t/ self-sufficient. Even to change who we are and pursue greater sanctification, we need His work in external circumstances to be shaping us into the people he’s called us to be. That’s a great example of how God’s done so in your own life!

@sleepwalkingmk (for some reason I can’t access the Theme Mastery homework anymore?) But yeah. That’s Kara. I’m planning on having a mini-fall arc for her in the second book. But then she has her greatest triumph yet 😀

Josiah DeGraaf replied to the topic Homework for Video 5: Character Arc in the forum Writing Assignments 7 years ago
@sleepwalkingmk Hey! Glad to see you’re able to work through this again. 🙂 That character arc looks good. I don’t normally recommend going for three at once, but those form a pretty natural progression there that should work decently well. I’ll look forward to seeing how you expand that in the next homework exercise.

Hey all!
It is my pleasure to introduce you all to the new Kingdom Pen site–now faster /and/ mobile-friendly. 😀
As you may notice, it looks quite different. And while I think I’ve caught all the bugs, there may still be some that have evaded my eagle-eye. So if you find something, drop us a note here or email us at kingdompenmag@gmail.com.…[Read more]
