Daeus replied to the topic Irrational or Rational? in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 3 months ago
@inkling-for-christ I’m not sure that fangirl automatically equals dreamer, but definitely dreaming is not irrational. I’d like to debate anyone who thought so. *roars*
I might come back here and rant about that sometime.
In the meantime though, I think that’s a cool story idea and if you need any help writing guys, I could help. Guys are not…[Read more]

Daeus replied to the topic Reader Base in the forum Publishing & Platform 8 years, 3 months ago
@dragon-snapper Do you/will you soon have an email list? You can build your platform entirely on your blog, but it just makes sense to have an email list along with your blog and an email list is a better way to sell things. Most importantly, and email list is permanent unless your followers unsubscribe. A blog follower is more likely to stick…[Read more]

Snapper started the topic Reader Base in the forum Publishing & Platform 8 years, 3 months ago
Hey guys! I know that KP has lots of articles on this, but some of the options of building a reader base aren’t open to me. Like social media. I can’t do much of that.
Do you guys have any suggestions as to how I can promote my blog and writing to build a reader base?

You know you’re a Kapeefer when you go to the library and see a book called Keeper and you think to yourself, “They spelled Kapeefer wrong.”

Daeus replied to the topic How do we define "worth" when there is no actual God figure in the story? in the forum Mission, Calling & Ethics 8 years, 3 months ago
@livgiordano Well, I may be wrong, but I don’t know if you can do it completely. You probably don’t have to mention God very much to make that type of message, <span style=”background-color: #ffd9de;”>but I think you’d have to just at least some. </span>

Daeus replied to the topic Help Wanted: Creating Themes in the forum Mission, Calling & Ethics 8 years, 3 months ago
@waterlily Definitely what Elizabeth said.
Also, on another note, things like love conquers all” and “revenge leads to destruction” aren’t actually themes, they’re messages. I don’t know if you’ve ever looked into KP’s Theme Mastery course, but one of the things we teach in there is that a theme should never be controversial like “revenge leads…[Read more]

Daeus replied to the topic Has Anyone Published A Kindle Book in the forum Publishing & Platform 8 years, 3 months ago
That was for compiling the ebook. Publishing it to Amazon is also very easy.

@photobloggergal Yes, it’s very easy. Do you have Scrivener? That’s what I used so I could help you the most with that, but it’s also easy to do with Word and some other programs.

@livgiordano Welcome to the bestistest place on the internet!
I’m a YDubber too, though I don’t get on the community much.
What’s your favorite fantasy book?

Josiah DeGraaf replied to the topic Book Recommendations in the forum Book Discussions 8 years, 3 months ago
@jenwriter17 Yess… I’ve been on a bit of a sci-fi kick lately, so here’s what I got in addition to those mentioned.
-Ender’s Game & Speaker for the Dead (the sequel) are my two favorite speculative fiction books of all time. There’s some language in both books, so if that concerns you, you probably want to stay clear of it, but the themes are…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 Oh, books….
Um………………………….
I just looked at my bookshelf and realized that besides Artemis Fowl, I don’t have a single sci-fi book on my shelf. Maybe that’s why I like writing it. I don’t have any……
Sorry. 🙁

Mark Kamibaya replied to the topic The Elements of Elemental Cliche… in the forum Fantasy 8 years, 3 months ago
@warrioroftherealm Haven’t been on here for a while (thanks college), but I decided to give my two cents.
Yeah, elemental powers may seem pretty cliche at first glance. But there are many amazing stories that use potentially “cliched” premises as starting points. Cliche is usually a relative term. For example, revenge plots and the lovable…[Read more]

Daeus replied to the topic First time writing historical fiction in the forum Historical 8 years, 3 months ago
@epicaddie2 You don’t have to do this, but if you want to write a really in-depth historical fiction story, I’ve read that you don’t want to just read about the time period, but you want to read in the time period. Read the books that were famous at the time, preserved letters from the time period, newspaper articles, etc.
