@Anne-of-Lothlorien you mean @Ivy-Rose? *grins*
Sounds awesome.

Hello and welcome to…the awesomest, craziest, bestistest place on the internet! So, down to business (you are about to be bombarded with questions in 5…4…3…2…1…0!) What are your favorite books? What is your favorite genre of literature? What do you like to draw/paint (I love painting and drawing, too!)?…[Read more]

@perfectfifths
Yes, there is a contest to see who can say “bestistest place on the internet” first. 😛 😉

@nataliemarie
Hello and welcome to awesomest, craziest place on the internet! Glad to have you here. 😉 I write some poetry, too! You should submit some of your poetry to be published on KP (only if you WANT to, of course). 😀 By the way, what are your favorite books (this is one of the essential life questions that we all must come to terms with)?

@dragon-snapper
In my opinion, first person is MUCH easier to write. It’s easier to get inside your protagonist’s head than it is when you are writing third person. I’m actually working on a short story told from the POV of different members of the same family, which I’m writing in third person. I like reading both third and first person, but…[Read more]

@Sarah-H I appreciate your concern and the thought you put into this, and I have to say I agree for the most part. However, once again I believe you are assigning Satan more power than he actually has.
Believe me, I am not ignorant of the presence of evil in literature. I don’t read blindly or blindly accept the worldview of anyone if I see that…[Read more]

@anne-of-lothlorien I haven’t, mainly because I’m not sure how I would go about such a thing. Though I have toyed with the idea now and then. Perhaps the speaker would be telling the ‘reader’ about some sort of past they can’t remember and the reader has to become the hero of the story. Hmm, now that could be a cool idea.

Amen to that @sarah-h

@I-J-Anderson Irish? Oh wow, thanks. *grins* It’s French— Huguenot origin.

Yessssss! People— I love people. I’m not as good at painting them as I’d like to be; still life seems to be easier for some reason, but I love working with people because no two are alike and there’s such room for expression and personality. I love it.

@PerfectFifths good question. The difference between third person and deep third person is that deep third person actually delves into the thoughts of the characters, not just stays on the surface and monitors their actions.

@Anne-of-Lothlorien not me. I mean, I may have done it subconsciously in a few diary entries, but that’s about it. (My diary is a mess of gargantuan proportions from a literary standpoint. Don’t ask). 😛

Deep third person. I write sprawling epics with gazillions of characters, and deep third person works best for those kinds. If I was writing YA or something similar with only one MC, I’d probably choose first for a deep personal connection though.

@Dragon-Snapper

Welcome to the Realm of the KeePers of the Pen, @i-j-anderson! Ooooh, another writer/painter! What do you like to paint?

@winter-rose I think I’m done now. I wrote about 444 words, which means I wrote about 1472 words total today. I also changed some things around and wrote a paragraph of planning. Thanks!

@winter-rose Still here. 😀

@the-bean Yay! Glad you did well. So far, I’ve written 469 words. @jess Well, that’s better than I did. 😛
To the rest of random people of tagged and @anyone-else, I’m still going.

@nataliemarie Welcome to the bestistest place on the internets! (I’ll say it even if others have.) 😛
I’m the other dragon on here, and I breathe fire quite often. *looks pointedly at @kate-flournoy* I’ll tell you quite honestly that chairs and phones are quite fun to melt. But I’ll be nice and spare yours.
So, regardless of chairs and melting…[Read more]
