And now, the moment you’ve been waiting for…
The writing team results are…not in. Long story short (and we will be posting that long story later), we’ve had to delay announcing the selected tributes—we mean, interns—for the writing team and marketing director until further notice. First off, it’s really hard to choose when we’ve received a ton of awesome applications. Seriously, y’all killed it. But that, among a few other things, has led our selection committee to request extra time. Yeah, we have to take you up on that little word “tentative” in our 
original post and bump back the announcements for other announcements. Besides, this is America, and we do what we want. Let freedom ring and all that. That’s right; we’re rebels with a cause.
Now, before you go on a manhunt for the staff members with all those medieval weapons we know you own (Seriously, y’all, calm down with the long swords and revolvers, m’kay? It’s like you’re prepping for a revolt or something… Remember, Sarah and Laurel live in a doublewide cardboard box that is very mobile, so you shouldn’t even bother trying to track them down.), we will be announcing something very special around this time on Wednesday. No, not the results, but we promise it’ll be something almost as exciting. Well, for some of you, it may be more exciting than the results, but to avoid spoiling anything, we’ll just leave it at that (although you’re free to make your best guesses in the comments below). We also promise that the results will be announced as soon as we have them!
Until then, hang tight, hold your horses, and whatnot. We hate to KeeP(er) you waiting (Ba-Dum-Tsss), but again we assure you it’ll be well worth the wait when you do hear exactly what’s been going on around Kingdom Pen the past couple of weeks.
Sincerely,
The Kingdom Pen Staff
You’re planning on giving us all a world wide tour? Ice creams for every day in summer? (I am crazy about summer over here.) Um….think, think, think.
You’re all going to come over to Australia and visit with me? (Good idea, huh, Sarah?) 🙂
I give up. Oooo, I hate waiting. Hey, you said you were going to post it Wednesday; that’s tomorrow….hehehe. Maybe not… Okay, I have another day to wait. Just like the rest of y’all. 🙂
All good guesses….but we think it’s even more exciting than than ice cream and world travel! You won’t have to wait long 🙂
Better than Ice cream!?!?!?!? Come on Laurel, what are you hiding? You don’t just say something is better than ice cream. That takes something REALY big.
Hey, you never know. We’re not that far away. 🙂
I…must have missed a day because I have no idea what all this is about. It sounds exciting, though.
All shall be revealed soon, Sarah!!
Ummm… you guys compiled a collection of KP’s best articles and put them in a book???? 😛 That’s all I can think of, though I don’t know why that would be more exciting for some KeePers than others… I think we would all be pretty excited. I can’t waaaaaaiiiiit…
That’s a great idea, Kate!! But I think you’ll be thoroughly shocked(in the best way possible) by the nature of this surprise 😉
Do I need to stock up on defibrillators? 😀
Kate, have you seen Big Hero Six? You need B-max with his built in defibrillators. 🙂
Ha! Yes, Baymax would probably be useful right about now…
NNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
…and I didn’t even apply. Haha!
Can we hope it has the excitingness of a plot twist and the awesomeness of unlimited ice cream? Laurel? Can we? *Holds breath.*
You can hope that indeed. In fact I believe the feeling of jubilation you will receive will be equal if not superior to that of enjoying a giant ice cream sundae topped with hot fudge sauce and sprinkles while finding out your favorite character was not killed by the evil villain, but escaped and has been hiding in a cave for 15 years. It’s that good.
Wow Laurel, so maybe you are serious about this ice cream thing. Is it even better than mint chocolate chip? Lemon sorbet? Cookies and cream? Surely not if I get three scoops…
I have decided that you would make a nice villain for my next story. Keeping secrets is officially part of my new list of special villain activities. 😛
So, I’m guessing that you guys invented a special portal which you will be sending to each of the KP members. With the portal we can go inside our own story worlds. YESSS!!!!!!
Well, there goes the surprise!! DISCLAIMER: *Kingdom Pen is not responsible for any emotional trauma, injuries or deaths caused by the evil masterminds, aliens or fire-breathing dragons*
HAHA! I would love this too! However, I don’t think I would last two minutes in my fantasy world. I’m woefully unskilled. 🙂 Hmm, let me think… you found the last surviving unicorn? 🙂
What is this “Ba-Dum-Tsss” that I keep reading on Kingdom Pen? I’m not familiar with this onomatopoeia!
AHHHH!!!! I hate surprises. Well, I like the result of the surprise, but not the actual waiting and anticipation for the surprise to come.
I’m just gonna be sitting here on the edge of my seat until the results are announced, come get me when they are posted. 🙂
Alright everyone, my prediction is that this announcement is for (wait for it) Kingdom Pen: The Musical. *jazz hands* We all get together and take our stories, write songs, and act it all out. And the grand finale will be a song title “Canadian’s Evolved from Mooses” We’ll sing, We’ll dance, It will be fantastic. *more Jazz hands*
Christi YES! Great idea. But what does Canadian’s Evolved from Mooses got to do with it? (Exactly how is that Christian?)
Go listen to the very first episode of the Kingdom Pen Radio and all will be explained.
This comment section is my new favorite thing. XD
I KNOW!!! I’m loving it. And dragons. Yes. There ought to be dragons in the surprise somewhere.
Yes! I love that idea, Christi. Reagan, make a note. The people have spoken.
Hey, if we get to have a dragon, can we have the dragon’s gold too? Sarah would like that.
It’s become like a virtual wishlist of all the KeePers’ secret yearnings.
I’m pretty sure it’s the best comments section Kingdom Pen has ever seen!
Definitely! 🙂
SHHHH! You’re not supposed to tell them the real reason that we posted this.
Is it… a conference?
Not that I dislike portals, but for the sake of reality people… 😛 😉
*stares at comment section* *eyes slowly glaze over* What has the world come to when I am the voice of reason? XD
I second this. Someone needs to bring ice cream to the conference.
…Aaaaaaand — we can use a portal to get there.
And I want hobbits to serve the ice cream.
The ice cream has to be cookie dough. 🙂 It’s the best.
I second the Hobbits. 😀
Christi, what is cookie dough like? Please excuse my ignorance. I love Cookies and Cream and Choc Mint….. 🙂 😉
Oh, you poor, poor thing, you who have never tasted the gloriousness of cookie dough ice cream. First of all, you take raw cookie dough in little chunks and put it inside your vanilla ice cream ( you can add chocolate chips if you like) and mix it together and there you have your fantastic creation you taste buds will appreciate.
Oh, come on you guys! Daeus and Hope, are you forgetting that I’m a dragon? I’m a dragon and I love ice-cream served by Hobbits. Just keep away the dwarves and we’ll be good.
