Thanks, @spradlin ! That was what I was going for when I wrote it . . . I think.

Really, I just sat down on the edge of my bed with writing materials and the intention to write a poem. No inspiration struck, so I looked around my room for it. My eyes fell on my typewriter. It’s a Remington Deluxe Model 5 that I had affectionately named…[Read more]

@spradlin — Ok! I’m not an artist, but my brother is, and he has agreed to help me. He is in the process of joining the forum now. Basically, should we create some topics like “oil painting”, “acrylic painting”, “watercolor vs. watercolor pencils”, “techniques”, etc., put some pictures on there, and otherwise make it inviting?
Or is that the…[Read more]

Question: (@spradlin, @daeus, @cahndida serkhaman, @jadamae, @sarah-h)
If you were illustrating this for a child, how would you illustrate this verse.

In a land long ago,
When men were all bad,
They stole and they murdered,
Which made the Lord sad.

I obviously don’t want to scare them, with people killing people, but I don’t want to make the…[Read more]

@spradlin Come and check this poem out. What do you think?

Thanks, will do! If I ever get it done, you will be one of the first to know:) @spradlin
In the meantime, if you want to see something I’ve written, you can check out a poem I posted under “Poetry” in a thread entitled something along the lines of, “Help! I have a nameless poem!”

Or you could wait to read it if Kingdom Pen publishes it when…[Read more]

Gosh, @spradlin, how devious!!! 😛 😉

I would love it if you’d post it here, @overcomer. 😀 Seriously.

Gosh, @spradlin, how devious!!! 😛 😉

Thanks, @spradlin , (excuse me while I get some sand out of my ear. I just spent the afternoon at the beach. Isn’t Spring great?) and @kate-flournoy ! That is reassuring.

Now I’m also wondering if posting our content here to share with each other could be considered a prior publication (disqualifier) for other sites’ contests etc. I…[Read more]

Well @overcomer, @spradlin posted one of her poems here for critique, and later submitted it to KP right here.

She’s the secretary— she would know the rules. So as far as I can tell, it’s perfectly fine! 😀

Right. Tags here they come.

@spradlin– Thank you so much! I will do that.

@spradlin Well, as for format, I’m not entirely sure, but it should probably include this information: Title, starting and ending date (if known and if it has a deadline), description including how much the person suggesting it actually knows about it and why they think it will be good, price, location, link, other stuff. I assume it would be…[Read more]

@spradlin– Thanks for getting back to me. The only reason I asked was that my parents don’t like me going on sites that have ads, and I was afraid I wouldn’t be allowed to go on here anymore. But that isn’t the case, thankfully. Every once in a while, the big ad along the side of the forum is inappropriate, but I totally understand if you need to…[Read more]

Ads? What ads? I thought those got taken down a long time ago. Am I the only one not seeing these?

By the way @spradlin, has KP ever thought about signing up for affiliate programs to advertise writerly resources (books, courses, etc)? That might be another income stream.

Yes, it does makes sense @kate-flournoy 😉 And I completely agree. Nobody wants to be given a bunch of rules to follow *coughmecough* 😛 I think that portraying God’s love (rather than all the “rules”), even in stories, will inspire people to seek God. A lot of people, I believe, think of Christianity as a bunch of rules. But it’s SO much…[Read more]
