TheArcaneAxiom replied to the topic Ello! in the forum Start HERE 1 year ago
Welcome to KP!
I’m the Arcane Axiom. I like math, searching for divine fundamental truth, and exploring that in my writing. I read/write sci-fi/fantasy, and currently am working on a universe with my sister we call the Septrum.
Questions:
Do you lean towards hard or soft worldbuilding? (hard meaning more concrete rules for the reader to u…[Read more]

TheArcaneAxiom replied to the topic Cosmere/Brandon Sanderson in the forum Book Discussions 1 year ago
It does make a lot of sense. I just wonder what the Dawnshards are in relation to the shards in terms of what they can do in the first place. The shards are wells of investiture, whereas the Dawnshards are only spoken of as “commands” as you’ve said, and the sleepless seemed terrified of the prospect of them getting out into the world, so…[Read more]

TheArcaneAxiom replied to the topic Magic Systems!! in the forum General Writing Discussions 1 year ago
Just looking at Fusion, destruction, amplification, and dynamism, I feel like there’s much potential interaction. I think there’s a whole lot of interesting you could do mechanically. Using destruction to precisely carve any kind of shape out of any kind of substance is nice, and that in tandem with pure fusion, connecting objects at a…[Read more]

TheArcaneAxiom replied to the topic Stormlight Archive in the forum Book Discussions 1 year ago
Yeah, I’ve read both as well. The sleepless have been really interesting to learn about. And the Dawnshard was really intriguing, and having the background from what you’ve talked about before really helped.

So I’ve been really bad at following up on this thread for quite a while now, as well as KP in general lately. I’ve sort of skimmed through, but you’ve probably done a lot since you last posted. Is there still anything specific you would like my thoughts on still?

TheArcaneAxiom replied to the topic What is the cringiest thing you've ever written? in the forum General Writing Discussions 1 year ago
The writing you shared was a little depressing, but the characters weren’t melodramatic at least. I don’t pay much attention to punctuation as a writing problem. The art of melodrama is at an all time high here though. Like “He grabbed Nejin by the collar of his shirt, his eyes radiating hate, and rage.” After Nejin, a little boy he never…[Read more]

Oh, and this garbage:
“Shele” he said, turning around, immediately bumping into a tall, yet frail man.
He grabbed Nejin by the collar of his shirt, his eyes radiating hate, and rage.
Adrenaline rushed through Nejin’s system, but it gave no resolve to run or fight. Guards charged in, clearing the area, tackling the Man to the ground, losin…

This is some of my writing I want to burn, bury the remnants in a dark cave, then collapse the cave to never see the light of day again, but here it is for you to enjoy…
“Mailes?… Do you think me a good Jan?” Laijas asked. Surprise stunned Mailes, what kind of question was that? It didn’t sound like something Laijas would…

13 does have fun properties though, like the fact that it is a prime number alone is already cool.

So… now what?

TheArcaneAxiom replied to the topic Break the Record!!! in the forum General Writing Discussions 1 year ago
Though that’s not “smashing” the record, do we think we can do better?

Yeah, we did it by one person!

Sorry for my apparent inactivity. The last few weeks have been really busy because of Christmas stuff. So I’ve seen this idea before, but only really as a Joke, for example:

Ahh, I see. So it’s not two kinds of stone, but two pieces of a once whole object. That makes sense now!

TheArcaneAxiom replied to the topic Most Common Character Traits? in the forum Characters 1 year ago
I don’t really think about what my characters look like as much as I should. When I do, I usually think what their culture/ethnicity looks like, but then I have to think about the physical characteristics of the different cultures and ethnicities I’ve made, lol! My sister who drew N’nesha for me had to pry out hair and eye color from my tongue,…[Read more]

So the significance of the stones.
the stones are in two different necklaces. (And MAN am I struggling with the plot for this book. 😩🤣)The stones were the most valuable assets to a certain country for war, because the medicine made from them not only cures sickness and disease, but can also seal wounds and heal broken bones. So they…
