@ethryndal  You know, seeing your post just made me realize that I don’t have to write like everyone else, that I can go with my own style and structure. I can’t believe I didn’t realize that until now. *bops forehead* So thank you for saving me!

I am just SO TIRED of over-planning! I just wanna WRITE!

I’ll see what I can do! *nervous…[Read more]

A lot of you have been asking how the KPA is going

Well…

So yeah, that’s how it’s going… *gloomy sigh*

Guys, I am SO sorry this is taking forever! I realized from seeing how other people have written Kapeefer literature that I have over-planned mine. Besides, I have a HUGE plot hole (STILL! grrrrr) So I’m going to set down my current…[Read more]

@jenwriter17  *scratches chin* *grimaces (these claws, ya know)*

Hmmm…

I like all of them… I’m sort of leaning on #2, the Christian contemporary. It sounds powerful. But I also really like #3 because it just fascinates me how Christianity spreads even in places like that. #4 would make a good short story 🙂

Yeah, #3 🙂

@Cloudy At this very moment I’m a little busy, but sometime in the next week or so I’d be happy to look over your story. How in-depth would you want me to go? I do freelance editing so I can do anything from a theme-characters-plot sort of perspective or go more into the finer details of wording and prose and grammar. It all depends on how…[Read more]

@Radically-surrendered basically if it’s a book about musical instruments being epic I’ll read it. XD

@bella-d  Oh, yeah, the rank under your name depends on how many times you’ve posted.

If you had not tagged me and I’d missed the opportunity you’d have been in serious trouble.

@Daeus yes!

@that_writer_girl_99 I agree with @daeus that the English longbowmen were amazing.  This is my favorite description of a demonstration of the use of the longbow.

It is from a book by G. A. Henty called By Right of Conquest (About the conquests of Cortez) and is in the public domain, so I copied it from gutenberg.org to a google document.  An Eng…[Read more]

@bella-d And I’m thrilled you’re thrilled I know who those authors are! 🙂 Do you like Jeanne d’Albret because of reading the Chosen Daughters series?  My favorite in that series was Margaret Wilson in Against The Tide.

Have you read any books by Lois Walfrid Johnson, Robert Elmer, or R. M. Ballantyne?

@notawriter and @daeus Thanks!  My bra…[Read more]

@mnvalentine  You like Les Mis? AWESOME! I like it, too! Although I’m only halfway through the book so far. I’m really enjoying it 😉

@emma-flournoy, I found another Les Mis fan for you! ;-P

@itisastarrynight *looks in awe of raspberry sunshine*

@inklingforchrist Good question. I honestly don’t know. Every time I start a novel, it’s a big fear of mine that it’s not going to be very long at all. But even if your novels are short, it’s okay. My only suggestion for making books longer is adding in more conflict between characters and…[Read more]

@winter-rose Yep. I’m still lovin’ that GIF. XD

@ethryndal Perfect GIF. 😛  I’m surprised though, you didn’t use Galadriel. 😛 😉

@jenwriter17 The chair melting thing is basically what I do when I’m not happy with something. It’s my forum ‘signature’. 😉

@emma-flournoy Thankee.

@itisastarrynight For me, simple observing has been the best. I’ve actually been observing for a year and  half now. O.O Woah… that long, self? Weird.

@dragon-snapper I’m glad it’s working out for you! And I think I will have to observe how other people tackle it.

@itisastarrynight So, I had that exact same question just a week ago.

And I started a blog. I had no idea what I was going to write about, but as soon as I started it, I started finding ideas.

To get a general idea of what bloggers blog about, I’d check out a bunch of blogs. There are some good ones on the page of my blog.

For me, I get the…[Read more]

@epicaddie2 wow of course!

@daeus @mnvalentine Thank you!
