Kathleen replied to the topic Side Characters (FP,WS) in the forum Characters 4 years, 1 month ago
I think it’s great that you have a character that displays what the end of the MC’s character arc will be, so maybe for your students it could be the opposite of that. They could be the resistance to the MC’s character arc.
They would demonstrate different world views on the theme of “changing the world for the better”, Which would…[Read more]

Kathleen replied to the topic Age Gap in the forum Characters 4 years, 1 month ago
From what I see from age gaps, I think it’s more about the stage person is at in life rather than the actual number of years. (Though, the number of years is important too)
Like a fifteen-year-old dating, a twenty-year-old is a lot different than a twenty-year-old dating a twenty-five-year-old.
One is perfectly fine, the other…[Read more]

Kathleen replied to the topic What Makes An Allegory Impactful? in the forum Mission, Calling & Ethics 4 years, 1 month ago
@madelyn
I really like allegories that are subtle. Where the story alone stands strong by itself and the allegory just adds a layer of depth and core themes.Mainly because, if the story I am reading is very obviously an allegory, all I can think about is the story its an allegory of instead of the story itself, which gets in the way of me…[Read more]

@valtmy Change all the races of my characters for the sake of diversity (though idk why they would my MC is Asian), adding a love triangle (or three), change the ending (by making it happy isntead of vague and tragic and open), and adding a lot more daddy issues than I originally intended there to be.

November
“Run.” Zlatan’s voice was sharp and strong. Commanding. November’s eyes widened as the footsteps outside the door grew and a pounding thud sounded, like a knock.
He gripped Ara’s hand, squeezing it tighter then he probably should have, and rushed down the hall Viktor and Alyona had…[Read more]

I really like it because, while he’s still so young and it’s soooo stinking cute and adorable, it also shows the more mature side that my charries have (they have been thru a lot)

@koshka aww thank u!! And yes, what you said about the walking thru trials and stuff really does fit my charries, including these kids, even tho they’re young, after learning this Paxton becomes more Courageous and actually ends up standing up for Luna in some scenarios (even when she doesn’t realize it) and because of his past and character tha…[Read more]

I haven’t listened to much musical theater, however the scores I have heard I really enjoyed! Do you have a favorite musical?
Ah, John Williams is the guy. I don’t think I know a single person that doesn’t enjoy at least some of his work. Him, and John Powell are probably my favorite movie score composers. Do you…[Read more]

Lin replied to the topic Have you ever written a sad ending to a story? in the forum Topic of the Week 4 years, 1 month ago
@kathleenramm A lot. Well, not sure. Most of my endings are bittersweet; in fact, I can’t think of a single fully happy ending. But there was one story (that I think you’ve read?) where every single character loses everything and there’s no way to recover that, and it was the result of all their own choices throughout the story.
Still one of my…[Read more]

Have you ever written a sad ending to a story? Why?
I have written quite a few bitter-sweet endings, but I have yet to write a tragic one. However the novel I’m writing now, looks to be going in that “tragic ending” direction, but I’m pretty sure it’ll end up more as a bitter-sweet ending like most of my stories.For me the ending is always…[Read more]

Hi! Welcome to KP!
I just gotta say first off that Miyanna is a really pretty name. Kinda sounds like the name of the lead female protagonist of a fantasy novel, haha.
I love music and acting as well! Particularly music, as I’ve only been in one play, but both can be so exciting despite being so different.
If you…[Read more]

You should totally try sometime, it’s really fun.
As for a twist, we made the cities post-apocalyptic. We of course did it for the story, but the post-apocalyptic vibe ended up really fitting with the cities we grew up in, particularly Cincinnati lol.

Arabella
The coin thumped against the table. Ara stared at it, examining the insignia on the side she could see.
She sucked in a breath, thankful for Zlatan’s quick thinking and the fact that had such a thing on hand.
She…she had nothing to offer Alyona, and now…seeing the girl give A portion of food that must have…[Read more]

Arabella
Lyn, Nyx and Alyona were now accompanied by a boy around Ara’s age with brown hair, much darker then her own, that curled at the tips. His eyes were dark, as if he were…concerned, but something about his face seemed kind.
”This is Viktor!” Lyn introduced him, not giving him time to speak. She wasn’t being rud…[Read more]
