@dragon-snapper Oh boy! Happy six months! I’m trying to find the courage to start the Silmarillion at the moment.
You know what’s the worst thing ever? When someone who doesn’t get it says something to the effect of, “Oh, just get over it and write something.” *rips out hair* They know nothing.

@dragon-snapper @s-g-dewey Though some of us more than others may be prone to chuckle evilly when they hear a fellow has it and they’re not the only one… 😛 Not that I would ever do that… BUT in all seriousness, writer’s block is the worst curse of the writing kind, and I would not wish it upon any one. Really. 😉
I pronounce it Thay-o-den. I…[Read more]

Ethryndal replied to the topic Another Book Cover! in the forum Art 9 years, 3 months ago
@Leumeister Weeeeeell, looks like everyone else has pretty much said my main thoughts, so, yeah. I do like the title font and the metallic quality of it. Looks spacey. And I know this is just a rough draft, but when you start to polish it up, I would just remember to do something with the people, so they don’t look like their walking around in…[Read more]

@s-g-dewey I’m still convinced it’s chocolate. 🙂 And ah yes, those terrible names where you sit and stare at it for three minutes trying to figure out if it’s Thee-o-den, or Thay-o-den. Fortunately, I don’t think I’ve got that problem; one of my MCs is named Lotch… But if you’re not writing fantasy, then thankfully, most people will probably…[Read more]

@Winter-Rose Yeesh, how long did it take you to figure out how to say that in Yodanese?

For some strange reason, I nearly tagged myself in that last post. XD Oh the joys of going to bed at 3 am.

Oh wait, you didn’t defeat your writer’s block. You’re trying to defeat it by finding a name. Oops. I have a problem with reading things too fast. I saw @Kate-Flournoy‘s post and got my faulty information from that, so… IT’S HER FAULT, NOT MINE!!! Not to shift blame or anything… 😉

@S-G-Dewey CONFETTI AND CYBER HUGS ABOUT WRITER’S BLOCK VICTORY! Now tell me your secret. Is it chocolate? 😛
There are so many good names from the time period you’re writing about, it’s hard to narrow the list down. What letter do you think it should start with? Your character sounds like a rather militant type of person, so I would suggest…[Read more]

Ethryndal replied to the topic Quote That in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 3 months ago
The Elf is hauling this thread out of the dreaded depths of page 2. And since it’s pretty safe to say that no one knows where the current quote came from, I’m going to do a new one that (hopefully) is pretty obvious.
“Sir, the possibility of successfully navigating an asteroid field is approximately 3,720 to 1!”

Ethryndal replied to the topic Discussion for Video Two: The Importance of Theme in the forum Discussion Questions 9 years, 3 months ago
@aratrea What excites me most about theme is the ability to write fiction that’s deep and meaningful, not just a ‘fun’ book that people immediately forget because they’re nothing but glue holding it together. I want to be able to touch people, to move them with my writing while being a testimony of Christ.
