Black iris.

XD

Although, it’s more partially black, partially a velvety dark brown.

Black hollyhocks.

All right then, clspeck!

That’s an awesome line! I think my favorite from an original of mine would have to be this:  “Quiet and brief they came and left, barely more than a whispering in the static air. Breaths once so strong, now brought to their rasping knees. During the black veil of night, they were buried beneath the feet of…[Read more]

Don’t think I used the quoting system properly, but that’s okay.

Nice! How does that system work?

Wolfgang

he disliked the clicking, but he knew better than to get distracted. “Hit as hard as you like,” he shot back. It seemed that it was time for a good rush. He swept forward. His sword was deflected but he ducked and hit Jasper with his shoulder, nocking the boy back a step, then swiped at his legs with his…[Read more]

Hello!

I’m Ellette! I’m a published author if fantasy, dystopian, and Historical fiction for middle grade, YA, and adults. I am also the owner of a publishing company, a content editor, and an artist/graphic designer.

What are a few of your favorite books?

awww!!!

Should I be doing homework? Am I literally writing a paper at this moment?

Ahhhhhh….

Eithne

“I…” She cleared her throat. “I am Eithne the Wildendaughter. Glad to meet everyone.” Having uttered two tolerably inteligent sentences, she consigned herself to the happy pastime of listening to everyone else talk.

Arrived two days after we ordered it. Hoping to read it sometime over the next week.

@whalekeeper

Wolfgang

he frowned. Pushing was not exactly legal in fencing. But this was a real sword fight. He eyed Jasper a moment, then repeated his move from before. But as Jasper went to redirect the blade, Wolfgang pulled back and thrust at his left shoulder.

wolfgang is more competition dueling. he was self taught from old books, and then was able to get a little bit of training with athletes prepping for the Olympics. any combat training regarding the sword he would have learned on his own from books. so… A little bit more than for the fun  of it. His father supported it as a sport, Wo…[Read more]

This will be fun to watch.

I seriously wonder how Wilhelm would fare. I rather like him not fighting in this instance, but it’s hard to tell. He is probably not as skilled as Jasper, but his style is designed for battle etc. It would likely depend on circomstances.

Wilhelm

The duel would happen right there in the…[Read more]

I actually really like the fire trapped in ice idea. Etchings/frost details on it would be neat too. They could be a little unatural, like illustrations of some scene, words, or a face rather than just frost.

Hey!! Haven’t seen you in a bit!!

Wow! I can’t believe you did that pencil sketch! It’s so good! It’s unlike your style, yet also like it enough that I could guess who drew it if it was in a lineup. I like it.

Go ahead and whale on the guy. XD It may do him some good. lololol

Wolfgang 

He spun the sword in a few quick arcs to loosen his wrist. He shuffle-stepped forward and back, bounced side to side, and came to a stop, front leg bent, back leg straight, sword out, his other arm raised and bent slightly to give…[Read more]

That was amazing. I love these librarians.

Tavar

He sat frozen in place, a well of amusement and horror mixing inside him as it had the last time Quibble had come by. It was hard to keep a straight face when she turned back around, especially with Clancy’s patient expression peering around her.

“Is that all the m…[Read more]

Ari

The professor blinked once or twice and nodded regaly. “That is a question more suited to the philosophy masters, but you may be on to something. Science was once called the philosophy of nature.”

After another pause, the lecture recovered and staggered on. Ari hunched over his desk, elbows propped on the tabletop.…[Read more]

Awesome! It’s a wonderful little book. Hope you enjoy!

@elishavet-pidyon

Sounds like a good plan. I know it’s hard to find time to read during the semester. Let me know if there’s anything I can do to help. 😉

Interlibrary loans are some of the coolest things. It’s basically like a low-profile network of…[Read more]

Mothy…..0_0

Ari

The silence stretched thin. A boy three seats ahead elbowed his neighbor and glanced back at Moth with an amused smirk. Moth shrank a little further into himself.

Ari’s eyes went black. He locked gaze with the back of the boy’s head. Slowly, the boy turned to look. The color drained from his face.

Whoa. She has an intense drive. I feel sorry for her but am concerned about what she’s up to. Is she a main character?

I don’t know if you would want to do this, but what is half of the frozen object is made of fire? Like ice and fire together, never melting or extinguishing. The fire doesn’t have to like actually hurt people (because I assume the characters will need to pick it up.) Or, half of the object could be out of ice, and the other half could…[Read more]

Hello, it’s nice to meet you Galaxartian! My name (as you can see, of course, lol) is Quicksilverwyvern, though you can call me Quicksilver or Wyvern, I don’t care. I’m a Christian who hopes to be an author and business owner someday. I have a ridiculous amount of hobbies, and am always welcome to give advice.

Now, a few questions…[Read more]

Hello, C.L. Speck! It’s nice to meet you! My name is QuicksilverWyvern (though you can just call me Quicksilver or Wyvern, I don’t mind) and I like to write mostly epic fantasy with hints of other genres. I also have a ridiculous amount of other hobbies, though I’m definitely not equally great at all of them, lol! My dream job is to be…[Read more]

No problem! I don’t honestly think I got notified for some reason the first time you replied. My bad. My top two hobbies (besides writing) would probably be creating table-top RPG (think D&D) campaigns/manuals and when I have time working on my video game.

Awww, Mothy…

is this chef good or bad?

Hmmm…

Every time I start to like him, he gives me creeper feelings.

Good, good. Trust your feelings.

is this chef good or bad? Every time I start to like him, he gives me creeper feelings.

No! Horace is the best!!!! lololol. Halt is pretty good though.

Yes!! I LOVE Sydney! Charles too! But Sydney’s redemption arc is peek!

No worries, took me forever to figure out tags. XD

Okay, so at the top of the little “box” where you are typing your post is a B (for bold) I (for italicized) and then the (“) If you copy…[Read more]

Just a note: in my head the kitchens are built kinda like a star, with specialized kitchens branching off from the main room where LeQoi can survey everyone’s work at much the same time, or go from kitchen to kitchen as he likes. And he will absolutely be checking in on Callum and teaching…just perhaps not is a perfectly normal…[Read more]

Thanks! The published ones are as follows!

Wolfgang 

He found that answer deceptive and not at all satisfactory. But the proposition of a fight was not one to miss, especially with one who had possibly insulted his honor. “I’ll fight you!” he cried, grabbing for a long-sword off the rack. The blade tip hit the ground as the heavy weapon yanked him off…[Read more]

LeQoi

Fresh, sweet, and undeniably irresistible. The bread would do. A gracious flick of his fingers to the trembling kitchenmaid saw the basket of steaming challah whisked away back into the whir of luncheon preparation.

Now for another sampling. The master chef’s chocolate drop gaze landed on a boy standing six feet away. Ah y…[Read more]

Hello and welcome to Kingdom Pen!

This is a interesting premise. Historial fiction will always be fascinating to me, but I haven’t read one that mixed knights with the reformation. Also, it sounds like you have put a lot of work into it. Congratualtions on your accomplishments so far!

If you are ever having dificulty on getting…[Read more]

Here is sympathy for the brain rot.

Wolfgang

He found the answer over-complicated, but satisfactory. He turned to Jasper. “And what about you?”

Haven’t read much yet (although I’ve read most of it before). I will probably start using it as my winding down time reading.

Wilhelm

He started when he realized Wolfgang had intended to address him. The boy looked enthralled with the idea of honorable combat.

“Uphold honor?” Wilhelm cleared his throat. “Honor upholds us. We are knights of the Order of Fire, bound to the most deadly codes of chivalry and loyalty.” He touched a knuckle t…[Read more]

I was willing to respond but wasn’t sure if we were taking turns or not. I can respond nowish.

shall I direct the question to someone else? Or is Wilhelm’s writer just taking a break?

You’ll be happy to know, Kavi, that the kitchen is enormous and filled with all the best foods. And lots of it.

The kitchens are also presided over by a questionable master chef named LeQoi. Which reminds me he hasn’t said much is some time…

That sounds like a cool book! My current project is a LitRPG like thing as well.

My other hobbies include, but are not limited to: digital art, graphite art, coloring (I keep wanting to spell color the British way for some reason), composing music, playing piano, designing D&D campaigns and other table-top RPG systems, crochet,…[Read more]
