Snapper started the topic Why We Do This in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 7 months ago
Hey, everyone!
I was just thinking about writing (granted, I’m always thinking about writing, but that’s beside the point). Why do we do it? Why do we want to put a bunch of words onto a page; make remixes of the Dictionary? What motivates us?
Writer’s Block, in my opinion, is just lack of motivation, so, I was thinking that each of us writers…[Read more] -

Sarah Hoven replied to the topic Aliens, in the forum Sci-Fi 9 years, 9 months ago
@Timothy-Young As a Christian, I would avoid writing alien fiction for several reasons. First of all, I second what Kate and Gabrielle said: aliens don’t exist, and writing about them as if they did does more harm than good, since there are cults who believe in and worship them. And now that the intelligent design of the universe is becoming…[Read more]

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Aliens, in the forum Sci-Fi 9 years, 10 months ago
@Timothy-Young this is an excellent topic.
I think there are so few Christian scifi stories because Christians are still waking up and coming out of an ‘anything strange is bad’ and ‘all art is sinful’ mindset. That may be a bit harsh, but I think it’s justified. Christians have had lapses and relapses of legalism over the years for a long, long…[Read more]

@timothy-young Well the first (only somewhat related) piece of opinion that came to mind is to study the science of blogging, seo, and the art of driving traffic. If you have something worth saying (sounds like you do), you want a lot of people to read it.
As far as the actual science fiction side of things, it’s not something I think about much.…[Read more]

Hi @timothy-young! So glad you’ve joined Kingdom Pen! I think it’s fantastic how international this site is– I know there are people from Australia, Singapore, etc. I’ve been interested in mission work but am waiting to see where God is leading me… I really wanted to be a medical missionary in Africa or India about a year ago, but now I’m…[Read more]

@timothy-young. No I have not read/heard of W.E. Johns Worrals books. I shall have to ask my brother about them. He is the real Biggles fan. He was the one who started me reading them. Although I guess I have to say thank you to school work (though now I am done with that) 🙂 as I read my first Biggles because of Nepal when we studied it for…[Read more]

@timothy-young Ooo, I really like Freedom’s Cause, The Cat of Bubastes, and The Lion of St. Mark. I think one of my favorites is For the Temple.
Thanks. I’m glad you liked the article. 🙂 I don’t really have an option on authors of Greek and Roman warfare or history. I’ve just been slowly going though the small selection our library has and r…[Read more]

@Timothy-Young, Very neat! I’ve only read one Henty, and I liked it, but I’ve never gotten around to reading any others. 🙂 Hmm, I’ve heard of the Scarlet Pimpernel, but I’ve never read it. I’ll have to look into that. 😉

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Where do you live? in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 10 months ago
Whew, yeah @Timothy-Young, that puts things here in perspective! 😛 At least you guys over there have learned not to depend on the government for everything, though. People seem to be very slow in catching on to that over here. :/

Hope Ann replied to the topic Where do you live? in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 10 months ago
@timothy-young That is fascinating! I know very little about any part of Africa and love hearing about new places. And perhaps…perhaps our government isn’t quite as bad as it could be… 😉

Hope Ann replied to the topic Hi, from the Deeper South in the forum Start HERE 9 years, 10 months ago
Welcome, @timothy-young! I love the Scarlet Pimpernel! I think I’ve read all the books, or at least all the books I could get my hands on. And I like military history…well, Roman and Greek history, which is mainly battles…
And…I think most of the interesting questions have already been asked. 🙁
Also, blogs are fun! Make sure you tell us…[Read more]

Yes @timothy-young A Biggles lover!!!! They are great books and keep me on the edge of my seat when I read them. I would love to be a missionary when I grow up. I don’t think I have much more to say, other than Welcome to KP the bestistest…oh @ingridrd beat me to it. *Sobs* Oh and yay for all home-schoolers. 🙂
