QuicksilverWyvern

Hello, Lillian! My name is QuicksilverWyvern (though you can just call me Quicksilver or Wyvern, I don’t mind) and I like to write mostly epic fantasy with hints of other genres. I also have a ridiculous amount of other hobbies, though I’m definitely not equally great at all of them, lol! My dream job is to be an author and eventually a…[Read more]

Yes! We celebrate Christmas in my family. We celebrate it in different ways depending on which side of the family we are at, but we always go to church on Christmas Eve and have Christ at the center. Christmas for us is a celebration of the hope and light that came when Christ entered the world as a baby and served as the greatest gift of love…[Read more]

My fantasy house would be a giant city-sized palace like the Forbidden City, with different areas of the complex being modeled after different styles of palaces and fantasy.

That’s a great line!

Haha! Yeah, I once met someone who thought Christmas was evil. Whenever I’m interacting with people, I try to be mindful of their convictions and avoid bringing up certain things. If they asked me to my face, I wouldn’t lie of course, but I try as much as possible to honor what other people believe is wrong (as long as they aren’t hurting other…[Read more]

I will be praying. I’m so sorry you’re going through this rough time.

Names are hard. They just are. My sister in fact came to me the other day and asked me this exact question: how do you come up with a good name? I don’t think there’s a right or wrong answer, but here are some things I’ve tried in the past:

• Going to a name generator and combining different parts of names I like the sound of.
• Coming up with…

Hi there! Thanks for asking this question. Music I know can be a touchy issue for some, and other people may have different opinions, but here are my thoughts:

I personally believe that only the lyrics of the song really matter. As the Bible says, we are to fill ourselves with heavenly things and set our mind on things above. (Colossians 3.) The…[Read more]

Hello! This is a very interesting Q & A. I like the idea! Thanks for posting it. Here are my answers to the questions:

1. Okay, so this is a complicated one. My family is part of a nondenominational church, but we largely agree with the Evangelical Free church my mom was raised in (At least the doctrines they taught when she was there in the…[Read more]

Ooo, this sounds really interesting. I’ll totally join if I can get my hands on a copy. It sounds like a really good book.

Thanks! I find having different interests gives me ways to take a break from writing primarily and do something else creative for a change. As far as my health issues go, a few years ago I had to get a surgery where a titanium bar was placed in my chest due to skeletal growth issues. This December it’s being taken out. Meanwhile, a year ago I got…[Read more]

Ooo, yes, cheesecake. It’s one of my favorite desserts! And no, I’m not sharing (silly distrustful face.) Joking. Of course I’d share it.

1. Probably ride a dragon for a day. Never going to get that opportunity again, though, yes, I would be screaming through the entire ride.

2. According the first definition in the Merriam Webster dictionary,…[Read more]

1. I’d say my favorite top fantasy books would have to be the Mistborn trilogy, Harry Potter, and though I have yet to finish the whole series, Lord of the Rings.

2. I would love to spend a week a week with the protagonist of my finished novel, Qinien. He’s really talented in art and music, and I’d love some technique advice from him!

3. Ooo,…[Read more]

Hello! I am new here, but I totally get what you’re saying. My biggest struggle as an author thus far has been plot; world building and characters come naturally for me, but plot I struggle with. Over the years trying to find what sort of plotting style works for me, I’ve found a few things that help.

• Most plot structures out there are…
