An update on what I’m doing with my newsletter in case anyone cares.

1. I’ve changed the name to a much more catchy ‘Legend Seekers’ (verses ‘Writing in the Light Readers’)

2. I’ve worked on switching the focus of my newsletters to things fantasy readers would find cool; humorous tips in case you are caught away into a magical land, scenes…[Read more]

Umm, what does everyone think about spending $50 on a really cool, fantasy-looking dagger? To be clear, I have not bought said dagger. But I’ve seen it a few times and my fingers are itching to wrap around the ivory handle and trace the sharp glinting blade…ok, so that’s a tad dramatic. 😉 But, not that this is a super important question or that…[Read more]

Good points, everyone.

And no more, @Daeus. I. Am. Reading. Dreamland! And now I will try to forget that someone is going to die and hope that, this time, everything will turn out right.

@kate-flournoy Yes, I’m afraid it is. I struggled with it for a bit, but it really is the best (and most traumatizing choice). I’m afraid most of my family is thinking I’m a bit weird because I’ve been talking about how I have to kill someone in my story and they’re all like ‘why?’ So now I’m working on making it as traumatic for everyone else as possible.

@Daeus …apparently I’m ENTJ-A (whatever the A means). And what does EN mean? I was looking over the rest of the conversation, but all these initials are still making my head spin.

Hmm, apparently I’m ENTJ-A. The description wasn’t perfect, but it was fairly close.

@kate-flournoy That’s hilarious! 😉

What does MBTI mean? Something to do with personality I’m guessing, but what exactly?

A villain who is afraid of speaking to large groups of people (a problem when he’s trying to rally his troops).

I love fantasy too! My favorite thing to read and write, seconded closely my futuristic fiction. 😉 Also, greetings from the northern wilds of Aslira; glad to have you. 😉

@Rolena-Hatfield No, it’s for a fantasy newspaper/blog series I’m starting which make fun of various fantasy cliches. Magical swords is my first one; here’s the rough draft of what I’ve written so far (though it may change before all’s over).

Ever hear about Flameslayer? A great, two-handed black blade, quenched in dragon’s blood and of…

Doctor Who! Love the show, though I’ve only seen the new ones. Oh, and welcome to the bestest and most random writing forum in the world. 😉

@anna-brie Ah, American elections. Let’s see. 🙂

First off, the government is broken down into two main groups, the nation, and the state. On the national level, we elect a president, a house of representatives (the amount of representatives being proportionate to the population of the state) and a Senate, which has two senators for each sate. At…[Read more]

@bluejay I know drop bears aren’t real…apparently, according to another Aussie friend of mine, it’s something some Aussies try to trick newbies with. Though it’s a quite frightful animal (if it were real) that I’m going to put in a book someday…a writer’s revenge for the single day I actually did believe her. 😉 It’s somewhat similar to what…[Read more]
