Daeus replied to the topic Alternative Historical Fiction Book Premise in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 10 years ago
mmm, yes. I second what Josiah said. The actual synopsis doesn’t catch my attention, but I don’t think you were trying to ask if it grabbed our emotional side so much as if the type of story you were writing sounded interesting. Is that right?

Daeus replied to the topic Why We Do This in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years ago
@jess I can totally sympathise. For me, it’s not so much escaping to another world, but I get depressed too and my writing is one of the things that feels concrete, and is always there for me to go to, and won’t change no matter what is happening, and seems to keep getting better even if I do have setbacks in other areas. I can throw myself into…[Read more]

@Daeus oooh, yes. Physical aspects of worldbuilding are crazy fun. All the different flora and fauna… I’m actually going to have to start filling a whole notebook with just made-up herbs and their medicinal/superstitious/mythical uses and history. 😀

@dragon-snapper I’m leaving now. Didn’t get much done in fifteen, just dabbled around with a poem. 🙂 How’d you go?

Two more people to notify. (Somehow I missed them.) @rolena-hatfield and @anne-swiftblade. We are voting on a book if you want to chuck in your preference.

@Daeus That’s awesome! I’d definitely recommend Lord of the Rings. It’s some of the best fantasy out there. 🙂 Or, if you didn’t want to read the whole series as it’s pretty long, you could read The Hobbit. The Wingfeather Saga is also great fantasy.

Ah, well. This forum just has a maliciousness against poets.

Ha. The whole point of rewriting is to make the editor’s job easier. 😀

@kate-flournoy Oooh… that sounds fun indeed. Tell you what, just unleash everything in you. Go crazy. Don’t hold back. Enter euphoria. You’ll get the good stuff down on paper, and all the meaningless stuff I’ll just blast away with my ruthless editing cannon.

@dragon-snapper Sure. That would be awesome. Now, to think of another visual poem to do…..

I doubt this is going to work, so I haven’t created a new topic for it. @daeus, I’m hoping it will do for you what your poem did for me. When I got the notification email, you poem was how it should be. I’d love this one to be critiqued but it doesn’t make much sense unless it is in the shape it should be. Please let me know if it works. :)…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy Oh yeah. Haha. You and procedures. I didn’t think of that. Sounds like a good system though.
In my world, most countries don’t have a strict religious system. I suppose it’s more no religion or humanism stuff in a lot of freer countries, mixed with a good amount of “true believer” people. That being said, there are exceptions I…[Read more]

@Daeus eh… well, I got to start it at any rate. 😛 I think I must be anxious or something— subconsciously stalling because I’ve been waiting for this scene so long, now that I’m approaching it I’m a little scared to mess it up… or something. 😛 It’s… kinda big. Harold just got home. For the first time in ten years.

@bluejay What!?!? You mean houses aren’t for running in? That’s too bad. And I feel fine, by the way.
@kate-flournoy @draggon-snapper I knocked out maybe ten or so editing points I wanted to get done.
Kate, did you get to write the scene you were waiting for?
