@kaya-young Hi! Welcome to the bestistest place on the internet.

A homeschool grad here. What type of books does Jeff Bridges write?

@Winter-Rose Ha, I can’t say it is particularly encouraging since I have absolutely NO IDEA what I want to do. XD But I read your blog post on it the other day and I found it super encouraging. My mom and I have already talked about the possibility of taking a gap year until I know what I’d like to do because it sounds as if my situation going…[Read more]

@emma-flournoy Usually just my favorite pieces from others. 😀 I actually don’t have any completed project of my own to record yet, but I definitely plan to record them once I have them. 😅 I’ve even recorded KP stuff that I love so I can share it with my family.

Good, good. 😛 What’ve you been reading lately? I’m doing Mere Christianity by C.…[Read more]

@aviantrail  *waves enthusiastically*  Welcome!  I know this is a boring question, but where do you go to school?

@kaya-young  Hello!  I am also 15, homeschooled, and have three younger siblings (also an older sister)!  Do you have a favorite genre to write?

Welcome to the forum @kaya-young! I was homeschooled myself from Kindergarten through high school. Afraid I’m not familiar with Jeff Bridges. :/ What other authors do you enjoy?

Hey @aviantrail–welcome to the site! Love that Wodehouse quote in your signature! Are those short stories fan-fictions for Homer’s Odyssey, or something different?

@Jenwriter17 Alrighty, book recommendations coming your way. 😛

– The Hunger Games (Suzanne Collins)
– Divergent (Veronica Roth)

These trilogies are both fairly well known. They’re not favourites of mine, and some of the content is a bit iffy, but they’re good for researching the genre.

– Out of Time (Nadine Brandes)
– The Lunar Chronicles…[Read more]

@alia Oooh. This is a really cool question.

There are a lot of approaches you could take with this. Most importantly, I think you need to think outside the box. Maybe that means reading more widely within the fantasy genre for inspiration. It definitely means asking yourself what if questions.

One suggestion is to make God an antagonist for a…[Read more]

@jenwriter17  For good measure…….

I drew this one (below) for a character Xchange:

And finally, one of my absolute favorite villains of all time…

I do have better examples, I just happen to not have pictures of them 😛

@dekreel I haven’t really tried manga before.  The one time I tried it, he kind of looked like a Roman monkey….

I like mine to be the most necessary lines and nothing more. Like this:

I drew that for the Leumeister a while back.

@jenwriter17  YES I LOVE DRAWING MANGA STYLE!!!!!!

I’m still learning proportions and stuff, but I really enjoy it!! 😀

Other artists: @catwing  @dragon-snapper  @sage-g  @ingridrd  @my-mind-is-blank…

I don’t know if they draw manga style but……..

Well, I do anyway 🙂

Can I see some of your manga? 😀

@Seekjustice

I’m happy saying that I live in Australia, rural NSW because there is a lot of rural NSW so the chances of anyone tracking me down is quite slim.

Oh my word. XD True though. No one is going to scour all of rural NSW for you. XP

@Jenwriter17 Pen names are tricky…I personally gave up thinking of one and just went with my first na…[Read more]

@daughteroftheking Ooh… That’s pretty cool! 🙂

@jenwriter17 Ooh boy. Pen names? Welllll…

To get ideas you could always find a name from one of your stories–whether obscure or not.
I don’t think you need your pen name to be completely random either. I mean, if you want it to be, by all means let it be. XD However, I think your name could have more significance if it had some attatchment…[Read more]

@epicaddie2  I can’t believe I didn’t see the Beast until now!! I saw the Catwing, but not the beast! *smacks head*

Huh! O-O

That’s pretty accurate, actually. And, I must say, pretty good!

@mariposa  @cloudy  So where do you guys find your pictures for your typography?

Annnnnd I got distracted reading blogs. I finished reading the haikus XD

You know you’re a writer when you are riding in a car, and you look over to the person driving the car right next to you, and you start brainstorming who he or she is

@mariposa  @cloudy  @daughteroftheking  :-O Those are AWESOME. Why aren’t I on this topic more often…?
