Hello fellow guildmembers!

1. I mostly write in sci-fi, with some fantasy and contemporary fiction mixed in.

2. My current WIP (of which I have recently finished the first draft) is titled Leukauf. It is a sci-fi story set in the near future. The plot revolves around an ancient alien species lurking beneath the ocean, but the theme of the book…[Read more]

I step forward and graciously accept the keys. I can’t keep the grin off my face as I spin in place, surveying the network of treehouses and bridges. Several monkeys swing from branch to branch far above, chattering excitedly. A feeling of elation rises in my chest.

“I have a feeling I’m gonna like it here,” I say, still looking up. Then, without…[Read more]

@dragongeek Hi! Nice username. It’s always good to have another dragon. (We droids, however, seem to be in short supply. 😉 )

@daeus-lamb Is there any way to confirm that I’m in? I filled out the form a while ago.

@joyofemberley Hi!

Ah, yes. BBC. Also known as the place that everyone talks about but is really hard to partake in if you don’t have cable. Yeah.

I can never decide if I like fantasy or sci-fi better. I tend to lean towards sci-fi, but by all means try out fantasy! Some of my favorite books have come from that genre.

Do you, by any chance, pl…[Read more]

@dekreel Hey

Favorite pastime: daydreaming. 😀 Nice!

Yay for guilds!

Hi @aster ! Welcome to the site!

I’ve been writing since forever, but only started writing seriously within the past two years. I like all thing speculative fiction. (Except vampires and werewolves because they are creepy weird.)

Wow. Okay. I could have written that myself. Maybe it’s an INTJ thing. 😉

Piano and ukulele are cool! I play per…[Read more]

@mariposa Wow! Great job on that squirrel (and all the art you do for that matter. 🙂 )

@dekreel Yes, I suppose we will… *chuckles* I’ll start collecting all the SE fiction.

@emma-starr I mostly write sci-fi, then some fantasy and contemporary fiction. I’ve tried a bit of poetry, but I’m not really that great at it. 🙂

@ethryndal Better to take a thousand years and write a masterpiece than take six months and hate the finished product. 😉

@emma-starr Hi! Welcome.

I love Narnia and Lord of the Rings, of course, but I’ve never heard of some of those other authors. Maybe I’ll check them out.

Do you write in a particular style/genre? I write sci-fi, fantasy, and contemporary fiction.

That’s a really cool quote you have in your signature! Very true.

@ethryndal Hey! Glad to see another fellow KeePer.

You know, now I’m gonna have to build a time machine just so I can read your book on human depravity and racism before I die. 😉

@mariposa XD This is…better than amazing.

Pennsylvania Graf! I didn’t know @josiah had it in him.

This site just keeps getting better….

Hi, @mariposa ! Nice to meet you and Aberdeen.

The premise of my novel? Well…it’s kind of hard to explain, but here goes:

——

In the year 2162, the Planetary Defense and Exploration Council commissions the Midway, an experimental submarine led by Captain Leukauf, to explore an uncharted region of the ocean floor.

A rather unexpected discov…[Read more]

@inkling-for-christ Nice alter ego 🙂 Did you ever read any of the Star Wars Expanded Universe?

In my opinion TLJ was the best Star Wars movie yet. I thought it was very well made, with interesting plot twists and great character development. But some people disagree, so I won’t judge you if you didn’t like it. 😉

Well, it just snowed yes…[Read more]

@inkling-for-christ Emberlings it is! 🙂

Hi, @wolverine ! Wow, that’s quite the novel premise. Sounds interesting. Ah, and Sherlock Holmes. We always need more fans of him. 🙂

@dekreel I think it has been decided that this is the awesomest place on the Internet, and KP is still the bestest place. 😉

@snapper *bows* I am pleased to make your acquaintance once again, O mighty dragon. I beg for your mercy, that you might spare the life of my humble (and quite comfortable) chair. I will forever be in your debt.

(Nice GIF, btw 😉 )

@sam-kowal @hope-ann ‘Emberlings’ might work.

Of course, ‘kapeefer’ is just ‘kingdom pen fan’ mashed with ‘keeper’, so we’ll probably end up as Strembafers or something. 😀

@brandon-miller Oh, I’ve done C, Python, all the web-design stuff (HTML, CSS, JS, etc.), and I’m currently improving my C++.
