Completed stories or all the stories I’ve started? Because those are two different lists lol.

Most of my stories (I call them that because most of them aren’t finished yet and book sounds like a term for something that’s finished) are either contemporary fiction or historical fiction. I have a couple mysteries thrown in…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009

Don’t beat yourself up over it! I struggle to convey things a lot, too, and I also am not very familiar with publishing since I haven’t looked into that, so my lack of understanding in that area probably contributed to the confusion.

Right now I’m just barely holding all my emotions together with my WIP…I am really really unh…

@whalekeeper @savannah_grace2009

I think you’ve got a good point there, too. While self-publishing is easier, and I would probably take that route if I was only intending for a smaller audience to read my book (say, family and friends who are taking more of an interest in it), I also want to know that my writing is good quality, and I don’t want…[Read more]

What if Henry has a friend who’s a Redcoat? You could bring out the strife and yet friendship on the two sides of war.

Ooh that’s an interesting idea! I’ll have to think about that.

@jonas

And you say you aren’t good at asking newbie questions…

@trillianewingfeather

Welcome to KP! I’m Janessa, aka Trailblazer, and I write a lot of contemporary/historical fiction, as well as a little bit of mystery. I also enjoy photography and hiking!

A couple questions for you:

-What is your favorite genre to read?

-What is your favorite book or series?

-Do you have any writing projects you’re…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009

I’m not really sure how you want your story to go…but I would really recommend developing your characters before any plotting! Figure out their character arcs and internal conflicts. (Abbie Emmons on YouTube really helped me learn why internal conflicts matter! But if you do watch her videos…prepare to be overwhelmed! XD thoug…

That sucks that one medication causes another ailment- you’d think there should be some sort of medication for you that would improve things instead of making problems worse.

It’s sort of sad, because Smarties used to be my favorite candy, until I started using them to bring up my blood sugar. They hit my system faster, which is why I…[Read more]

@rae

Ugh that’s not fun! Did you say you don’t eat sugar? How do you get your blood sugar up if you don’t? Or do you have to for that?

@savannah_grace2009

That’s good news!

@rae

Have you had more problems with higher or lower blood sugars? I would assume higher, if you’re body isn’t producing as much insulin, but if you’re on medication it might be different for you than it was for me when I was first diagnosed.

Sorry, I don’t want to bombard you with questions if you don’t want to talk about it. Please tell me if…[Read more]

@rae

Did the doctor say if it’s type 1 or type 2? Type 2 is usually easier to correct with diet and exercise, whereas type 1 is autoimmune so in most cases you can really only slow down the progression.

Praying for you as you adjust to these changes!

@rae

Guys, I need prayer again. I’m showing symptoms of type one diabetes.

Praying for you! I’m a type one diabetic, so I understand it well! Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have questions or need support!

@jonas

I’m too busy today to try to write an RP, but if I can come up with something, I’ll try to get one done tomorrow or Thursday.

@esther-c

I learned French in high school through a program called Mango; it was connected to the local library system somehow. I remember a little bit, but not much. My brother started learning Spanish with a program that teaches it a little differently- you start off only hearing it spoken, and then gradually they introduce writing, the way you…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009

Aw, that’s rough! Also not a fun way to be woken up, either. Continuing to pray for healing!

@hybridlore

I don’t… I prefer paper books.

Happy New Year!

@savannah_grace2009

Yeah my struggle right now is figuring out the love languages of my family. Mine is quality time, and I think at least some of my family is also the same, but I’m not a hundred percent sure. I know for sure none of them have physical touch as their primary love language, and I don’t think gifts is, either, for any of them. I…[Read more]
