XD I’ve never understood that either. Everyone is writing dark stuff and it gets tiresome and depressing. Sometimes I just want a lighthearted book where no one dies, but those are hard to find.

@power

As far as titles go, I always thought of you as kp’s local cryptid because of your elusive and random nature lol

@ellette-giselle

but have you all actually been trained to fight with them? 😂

Depends on exactly what you mean by training, but how is this at all writing/ kp related?

@whalekeeper

I just don’t like how they’re treated as more important/impactful than other stories.

Exactly

@loopylin @koshka

Yessss, I want silliness and whimsy! Do you have book recommendations???

@elishavet-pidyon

AWWWWW!!!!

okay who’s turn is it?

@koshka

@loopylin

I said “likely” (except auto correct said “Lily” Likely IS a word.)

anyways.

but have you all actually been trained to fight with them? 😂

@loopylin

Alrighty! XD And no time pressure. I need to focus on getting a first draft right now anyway, so I’m not asking for scheduled edits or anything. Lol.

@koshka

That would be awesome! Idk when I’ll have time to read it exactly, but I will

@loopylin

I’m honestly a bit tired of dark stuff and stories that “deal with hard themes”. We need more silliness and whimsy. The real world is full of it. Maybe we should reflect it more in our writing.

A hundred and ten percent agree. We need more whimsy and light.

@loopylin

Ahhh, me too oOoOO… fairies…..

I was actually just thinking about getting someone to read over the first chapter and prologue and give me feedback. I know it’s got spots that sort of dragged, but I literally just finished that chapter a few minutes ago and so I didn’t want to look at it myself. (Actually trying a new writing habit…[Read more]

@koshka

That sounds absolutely wonderful. I love whimsy. And fairies. Loving fairies was like my whole personality the first two thirds of my life. Please do share if you feel up to it.

@loopylin

Hmm. Welp, I do write poetry, if it can be called that.

Also I have no idea what age group my stories are for when I’m writing them, but I definitely have a few that feel like children’s books so you are not alone :] I don’t have very many externally dark themes in my stories usually that would make it YA.

It does feel…[Read more]

@koshka

I feel like “Rhymer” sounds like someone who does a lot of poetry?

@whalekeeper

 I remember watching it when I was younger and being creeped out. It’s such a fun film.

Why do these two sentences make sense together? Like, why?

Or at least, titling things. I can name stuff all day long. It’s the officially titlely stuff that gets hard. Most of my books aren’t even titled.
