@Dragon-snapper yeah. They said it. 😛

@Daeus

Loki is skeptical.

@Dragon-Snapper *headdesks* :’D

@Dragon-snapper *shakes head* Welp, I mean, you just destroyed my story… everything was on that computer… so I guess you’ll never read it… too bad…

@Dragon-snapper

@Daeus …’sappy maple syrup…’?

@Dragon-snapper. No one. Touches. My. Computer.

Newsflash… my computer decided it wasn’t doing gifs today…

@Dragon-snapper

Aaaaand the gif is not moving and just looks weird… XD

@Dragon-Snapper

@Dragon-Snapper *yelps and springs into the air with an indignant dragonish shriek, wringing her claws* THAT WAS MY FAVORITE THRONE.

@Northerner *pounds table* AMEN, AMEN, AND AMEN.

Well, Tolkien has undoubtedly influenced me, but when I try to trace my intentions for this project back to wherever they’re rooted he actually doesn’t come into the picture much. I think… my whole life’s experience so far has been the influence for that idea. 😛 The storyworld began disgustingly…[Read more]

Tagging @Daeus and @Hope for being the most amazing beta/alpha readers and writing buddies anyone could ever ask for. You guys have both seriously been major instruments in my writing journey and I wouldn’t be where I am without you.

Tagging @Ethryndal for gracing us all with her dazzling wit and making us all laugh with her snazz and sarcasm. Every forum needs a sarcastic elf.

@Joy perfect! So glad it was helpful. 😀

@Sam-Kowal ha! Well, remind me, and I will. ;P

And YES. Depth is everything. If you can boil your entire world down to a single deep, resonant core story/concept, so much the better for you. Hard to stress enough how important that is. Focus on what you have and make it so magical you don’t have to go look for other things to distract you.

@Daeus I’ll have you know I was racing to get that typed out before you posted and said all my stuff for me. XD

No, good points though. Maps are important… I have them… in my head… XD Allegorical and historical elements too. Oooh ooh, in fact @Joy, I actually have a cool thing for you. Four ‘pillars’ for you to figure out, that’ll give you…[Read more]
