How about:
We are sons of heroes
The kings who came before us
Tales of yesterage
They sailed through bloody seas (borrowed of course. This one is certainly dramatic buy you have to balance it with its grimness)
They lived like usOr if you must have it be one word.

No, I’ve got it. I’m compiling all the info really quick and then I’ll start a new topic.
Just give me a sec. 😉 -

Great!
Um… how? 😛

Chronicles is a cool word that has to do with history. Could it be The Chronicles of (whatever)?
Also I looked up history in the thesaurus and came up with Yesteryear. It’s a cool word, but I’m not sure if that’s what you want. Maybe Yesterage or something. 😉 Make up a word or merge two words together to get what you want.

Alrighty then. Let’s start it up. 🙂

Perhaps the island itself can be a portal of sorts; or there’s a portal in the center of the island and the characters have to get there (is it guarded by someone or do they just have to figure out how to use it?) and use it to get home.

I actually thought of that, but the problem is I start at almost the very end of the story, then go all the way back to the beginning… um, let me give some backstory.
This is basically an ‘historical’ series. The first two books are set in the eleventh age (eleven thousandth year) of my make-believe whatever-you-call-it. Then I go all the way…[Read more]

COOL!
I’m up for it. You’ll have to bear with me as I am new to this game, but I want to do this so I’m not going to let that stop me. *nods, clenches fist* I can do this. Just tell me when I do something wrong. 😛

*nods* that’s what I was thinking for an inter-genre island. Nice examples. XD
I think we’ll be the only people on the island. Though some fictional creatures from multiple genres will be roaming the island.
Let’s see… so either we get off the island to get back to our own world, or there’s some sort of portal that we have to go through.…[Read more]

Daeus replied to the topic Character Café in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years, 11 months ago
That sounds like a fantastic idea.
I just need to get a few things straight. First of all, what exactly do you mean by and inter-genre island? Will we have to fight robots with flintlocks, hack into Louis XIV’s headquarters to disable the anti-escape systems on the island, or debate weather dragons are real and can help us escape?
Also, will we…[Read more]

You might have to give up your one word dreams. I don’t think there is a word for generations that is dramatic.
I’m guessing you are going with this title because each new book will be the story of the next generation in a heroic line. If so, I think what is more important is the passing along of characteristics, heirlooms, or values from one…[Read more]

Just the key points I think.

Cool! Looks like we’ve got a good number of people here. Now we need a situation.
How about…
Let’s go for a inter-genre island where our characters have been stranded and must find a way to get back into their own stories.
*looks around* any objections? Is that too weird? -

I don’t usually scream for help, but I’ve got a problem here I can’t figure out and I was hoping you guys had some ideas.
It’s really simple.
I need a name for my series. Its current name is ‘Generations’ but that isn’t dramatic enough for me. I just need a word (I’d like to keep it a one word title if I can) that means basically the same thing…[Read more]

Hey, I like that guys. 😀
So are we outlining Walter’s whole story, or just the parts that mark key points in his development?

I love old Ballads.

It works either way. Some of them might actually make some good stories (albeit strange). They are all very comedic though.

Hope Ann replied to the topic Writing Music in the forum Music 10 years, 11 months ago
Here’s some music I’ve started listening to. There’s a whole list and I really like it. Well, I like most of what I’ve listened to so far; I can’t vouch for everything. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xHP2GgxYddY&index=1&list=RDxHP2GgxYddY
