Gorgeous work, guys!
@Dragon-Snapper Theron looks like somebody I’d want to meet. 😀

@joy you’re not being silly for feeling hurt. But you are being silly if you let it stop you.
I don’t think any of us will ever entirely escape that kind of hurt, and if we all stopped because where we are right now isn’t where we wish we were, no one would ever write anything.
So. Don’t stop. Criticism always hurts, but you can learn from it…[Read more]

Yes my brother is rather poor, but aren’t all writers?

@the-real-kapeefer *is shocked* I object to that remark very strongly.

@Daeus that… would be unnerving. 😛

@the-real-kapeefer hi! I think you should be an evil bumbling henchman for what you did with your poor brother’s books, but hi just the same. Chosen Ones are nothing if not polite, and I think we can afford to be to a henchman as bumbling as you are.

XD In all seriousness, welcome. Can’t wait to see what craziness ensues with you around here now… 😛

@Dragon-Snapper really cool!

@Dragon-Snapper I LOVE NAMES. I NAME EVERYTHING.

*coughs*
With that crucial bit of random information out of the way, I’d tend to agree with you. The best fantasy names are those that don’t look so absolutely foreign they’re impossible to relate to. The name should describe your character, not overshadow him. Personally I love old Norse, Saxon,…[Read more]

@Daeus eeeeeh… no pressure. 😛

@That_writer_Girl_99 good question though. I think… it seems to me that you’re asking not just about the Warden, but about the moral balance of justice and mercy. How do you show the necessity of justice (bad actions have painful consequences) while balancing it with understanding and forgiveness (we’re all…[Read more]

@gh24682468999 what they said. 😉

@Daeus yikes… okay. I’ll see what I can do.

@Dragon-Snapper the Chosen Kate… hm. *frowns* Yeah, I’m not sure that rolls too well either. XD

*bites nails* At this point I think I can make it. I guess we’ll see when the time comes but I really want to be there so maybe I can bend a few things to make room for it if I have to.
What time is it, again? @Daeus

@Daeus okey dokey. 🙂

@sage-g Mistborn!!! I just started the trilogy (finished the first book) and I love it! Who’s your favorite character?
*whispers obsessively*kelsierkelsierkelsierkelsierrrrrrr

Welcome to the bestistest place on the internet @sage-g! *grins* What’s your favorite book? What kind of music do you like best? Do you have a favorite genre?

@Daeus true… I didn’t notice that. I still think though that just picking it up and not knowing anything about the story, it really wouldn’t work for me. You wouldn’t notice the twist in the meaning until the very end of the book, and it’s not as integral to the overall theme as it could be. Just a brief reference to a part of the result.

@anne-of-lothlorien that’s wonderful news! I’ll keep praying for all of you. 😉

@Daeus oh boy… 😛 Um. I have to say The Time Traveler’s Dilemma still takes the cake for me but if there really is another very popular book out there with a similar title, probably scratch it.
Fools in the Darkness… meh. Who wants to read about fools?
Key to the Future… I like it. It will probably grow on me. I especially like it because……[Read more]

@clairec
*peeks in with glittering eyes*
*grins evilly*
*laughs maniacally and brings the roof down in a shower of plaster*

I am the wrong person to ask about this. XD My WIP was roughly 535,870 words as a finished second draft. I’m still cutting, but it will never be the length of a ‘normal’ book. 😛

That said, 70,000 sounds about the kind of…[Read more]

No, he mine, I tell you. If any of you want him to be happy, then let him be.

@Hope unfortunately that’s not how it works. *scowls*
