@theducktator yep your ducks would fit into this category!
@linus-smallprint It depends on the story. I use them throughout several different story universes and their roles are different in each one. Often I use just one species for each story. I do have some set rules for each though:
- Ailurids often have clan-based societies, because I…

Esther replied to the topic The Chat Chat in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 3 months ago
Yesss, I love the big family dynamic so much. They also have a pretty big friend group, so right now the beginning of the book has some Hobbit vibes, where all the dwarves are suddenly introduced and thrown into Bilbo’s house and you have no idea what’s going on, lol. But I introduce everyone in more detail later.
Thanks!!

You should name him Scrooge McDuck or Gladstone Gander (though technically he’s a goose but whatever)
Ive been watching a lot of Ducktails recently XD

Sure the songs are helpful for some, but I personally find them not too helpful.

Hello, KP! I am (probably) going to be more active, as I have finished all my online classes, as well as blackbelt testing, and piano lessons. Despite not posting much, I haven’t been *completely* out of touch with the KP world. I know some new people have…[Read more] -

oh, okay. No wonder my dictionary didn’t have that word, who would think to have a Latin word for Gummy? XD
I have to study Latin for school, and not gonna lie, I’m absolutely terrible at it.

Ubi=where
Est=you are, right? (The sum stuff messes me up a lot)
Anaticula=a little duck
What is the rest? I can’t recall it, and I can’t find it in my latin-english dictionary.

@princesachronicle Hiiiiiii, welcome back!!!
Happy to hear you’re doing well <3
As for me, I’m doing fairly well. Been writing a lot, my first novel is set to probably publish this summer (🥰🥳), and I have recently become a LOTR fan😂 The school year is almost…[Read more]

I have seen both. I’ve seen the Broadway version 3 times because I keep having friends in it. 😆
That’s so fun! I’ve only seen it live once, but I’ve seen the broadway version on Disney+ many times 😅 Do you know if you like the movie or broadway musical better?

Linus Smallprint replied to the topic Book Review: Tress of the Emerald Sea in the forum Book Discussions 2 years, 4 months ago
I have read Skyward, but only the first two books. Stormlight, I am a little intimidated by. I’ve heard Sanderson himself describing the opening as a wall you have to climb with your fingernails to understand, and when you reach the top, then you will be able to enjoy it. On the other hand, I have read Wheel of Time. Perhaps I…[Read more]

Linus Smallprint replied to the topic Book Review: Tress of the Emerald Sea in the forum Book Discussions 2 years, 4 months ago
Alcatraz is my favourite Sanderson work as well. Despite having read through the series several times, I can still pick it up and get hooked on the first chapter. Tress is probably the most similar to Alcatraz of Sanderson’s works in style.
By the way, (@theducktator, and @thearcaneaxiom as well), what books would you recommend to a…[Read more]

Oh yeah, KP is a pain on a phone. But don’t worry, it reads just fine! Do you do any dance other than ballet? I’m doing some beginner tap and jazz right now

Oooh those are all so good! I think my favorite of those is Newsies. Have you seen both the movie and the broadway version? I’ve actually been in The Sound of Music and in The Music Man and hopefully next year I’ll be able to be in Newsies since my theater group is doing it.

@highscribeofaetherium Thank you!! I thought I was going to have to dig through that entire topic 😭
And @theducktator that (your short story with a title longer than it) was hilarious!! 🤣 😭 And incredibly relatable! I’m very curious about Mrs. Tammany and the grandmother with a black belt in karate

Hello! How long is that title? Or how short is that story 😭 😅 Do you have any idea where in the place to share topic it is? I don’t think I’ll be able to find it. And what musicals do you like?

*facepalm* so much for being dramatic. The post is ‘pending moderation’, because I put a link in it. From past experience, that takes a long time (approximately forever), so I’ll have to redo that.
Good to see you again! I haven’t been too active either, more just on and off. KP finally published my short story as well, so that’s cool. I’ll check out the Novella! That’s awesome that you’ve done that!
That’s something I should do honestly, I’ve been banging my head on the wall over writing whole books, that I haven’t considered starting with…[Read more]
Yeah, I found that writing is a lot easier when you have *no other choice.* Since I was expected to submit an outline, and expected to submit a chapter every week, I actually did do those things!
Yeah, that’s what happened when I wrote my short story. There was a due date for a competition I was entering it for, so that accountability really forced me to Just Do It!
What’s frustrating is trying to have that same accountability on yourself. Even if you set dates, it doesn’t feel the same, so there’s gotta be good ways to convince yourself…[Read more]
Maybe we could organize something similar for KP, where everyone submits a chapter a week. But then again, maybe that wouldn’t be enough. It would probably be pretty easy to tell everyone that you didn’t have enough time, and then get behind and completely forget about it.
That’s true, but holding each other accountable is a great method. Me and my sister could start trying to do that. We pester each other about writing all the time, but it may actually help to set it up as chapter submission to one another, or something like that.
Wow, dramatic.
One question: WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH JONAS?

Jonas is never this dramatic!

I’m going to get to your novella sometime…I’m kinda busy right now (it feels like I always say that now….ugh!) but I will!
