I was surprised to see a notification from KP in my email. That hasn’t happened in a while!

It’s interesting to think back one year and 11 months to when I joined the site. That really wasn’t very long ago, but it feels like a lifetime. Back then I was considering writing as a career, and now I’ve transitioned fully into electrical engineering.…[Read more]

I actually didn’t notice the site was down, @dekreel . I guess that shows how long I’ve been gone. It’s nice of them to keep it running!

Many thanks to everyone else for keeping this place alive! And good luck on your own travels, whether writing-related or otherwise.

I’m glad you guys liked it! Yes, I’ll definitely add it to the Compendium. I don’t know if anyone visits it anymore, but it’s still there. Fun to read every now and then.

Sorry I don’t show up on the forums much anymore. I’m doing less writing than I was a year ago, and it’s just not the same as it was. I’m still holding…[Read more]

Yeah, seems like I broke something. Trying again with a new topic. Sorry if I annoy anyone.

And for some reason this didn’t show up in recent topics. Tagging myself to see if the system’s working at all. @supermonkey42

Okay, I don’t think this posted the first time. Anyways, it’s been about a year and a half since I joined KP and I decided to write a tribute to Kingdom Pen. I tagged some people the first time I tried this, so I won’t do it again so that I don’t annoy people too much with emails.

I call this A Tale of Worlds Left Behind.

The October before…[Read more]

@dekreel

I opened my email and saw, “ [Kingdom Pen] S.F. Dekreel mentioned you in a status update. “

Wow. It’s been a long time since I saw that. 🙂

It’s hard to believe my time here on KP was so short; I have so many good memories from it. Now that the people are mostly gone, though… I guess the name “Kingdom Pen” really doesn’t mean…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira @catwing May the day of the Raspberry Banners come swiftly.

@leumeister That’s really cool! I’ve designed several ships for a book of mine, and I started designing a 3D model of one of them, but I never completely finished it. Maybe I’ll finish it one day and 3D print it.

I’ve done a fair bit of 3D modeling for the R2-D2 my dad and I are building. We’ve used several programs from Autodesk (123D Design, F…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira It sure can.

You know, if you think about it, the subjects of the Kingdom didn’t just leave; the king left on a royal crusade to settle a new kingdom, stating that he would one day return and revive his first kingdom.

I have therefore decided to officially declare to the half a dozen people left here that I am a dual citizen of b…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira The Compendium is the site I started to store all of the Kapeefer Literature. Rochellaine asked me to add Kaya’s story snippet to it.

@rochellaine @jenwriter17 @kaya-young @skredder @ariel-ashira and everyone else

I didn’t realize there was still anyone on here! I might have been a little less “traitorous” if I’d known.

Yes, I can definetely add that to the Compendium. 🙂

Okay, really, guys, you’re making me feel bad for abandoning the Kingdom. Maybe I’ll check in every once…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 Everyone else has great suggestions!

If you want folk-y Christian check out The Gray Havens.

Also The Piano Guys are great.

And the How to Train Your Dragon soundtrack

And bunch of other stuff I can’t remember

I listen to a lot of personalized playlists on Pandora, so I don’t necessarily know the names of artists or groups that I like….

@skredder I got your Piglet reference! (A week late, but better late than never. 🙂 )

@filewriterbase13x I have the whole story in my email, so I can still stick it on the Compendium.

And I must say, I loved my part! 😉

@filewriterbase13x It’s not that I didn’t like Madelyn. I just found Frederick especially interesting. 🙂 Sorry if I’m being too critical…the story is good.

Ah, cool. I was wondering about that a bit, but I haven’t seen many typos. Part Four made me anxious for the next one.
