Things unchristian directors could do with my book … oh help.
They’d probably try to make out this beautiful, really close, boy-boy brother-like friendship I have into something else … if you know what I mean. And they’d probably cause conflict between that and another friendship/frenemyship one of the boys has with another main boy cha…[Read more]

@valtmy Even though 99% of what I write is fanfiction anyway, I would not want the film industry  to adapt any of my stories without me in charge. They’d probably make all my fantasy stuff weird and dark. I would love seeing my Rexy picture books as a kids’ TV miniseries, but I’d probably create it and direct it and everything. I would NOT leave…[Read more]

At first I thought,”Romance, over described battles, messed up characters…”
Then I remembered my book’s cultures.
The first books MCs’ father would be shown as a bloodthirsty military captian, their mother a brutal taskmaster. The fact that this kingdom has a female home-guard would immediately warp into some feminist program. In…[Read more]

Ugh. Talk about the author’s/reader’s nightmare. I avoid watching any movies based off books I love – even if the author helped direct it! XD
For my first series, they would definitely make up some love interest characters, maybe even change one of my character’s backstory from having lost a sister to having lost a, well not a sister.…[Read more]

@valtmy Change all the races of my characters for the sake of diversity (though idk why they would my MC is Asian), adding a love triangle (or three), change the ending (by making it happy isntead of vague and tragic and open), and adding a lot more daddy issues than I originally intended there to be.

Hey all! Back in the golden days before KP shut down we used to have a topic going here called Writers’ Corner and it was basically just a place where we could come together with out mugs of coffee and cups of tea and write together, or simply just chat. It was the gem of KP so I’ve decided to get it going again!
I’m currently watching a lecture…[Read more]

So much yes on character who don’t feel like they were solely made for the plot! Those are my favorite kind characters whether they are a villains or any other type of character.
(Oh, and your not the only one who had their day made by the Shrek joke by @not-so-secret-secret-assassin haha. XD)
People don’t talk…[Read more]

That’s thirteen hours past my EST, so we’re pretty much exact opposites as far as day and night. 😛

Well, it was inspired by last month’s KP newsletter picture prompt, but it got too long and I couldn’t shorten it enough to fit their max words requirement, so I didn’t send it in, but I decided to…[Read more]

QOD is the one I’ve read bits of, is it not? I can’t remember the title from the initials.
