    Drividian Unfolding - Chapter 1: Seeking a path... [edited version]

    My mother, my only surviving parent who I have adored since the moment the word "adore" entered my childish dictionary, has been bitten by a kuvarna. It was an accident which I was indirectly responsible for and has been driving me to climb walls, literally, in the last three days. And only her...

    Hello from the totally disioriented newbie

    Thank you Zero Angel and Little Storm Cloud! I will definitely be making use of the Brainstorming thread now that I have taken a look in there! :D

    Hello from the totally disioriented newbie

    I never thought about it that way. Interesting and something I'll keep in mind. I actually forgot about prologues when starting on my second writing attempt otherwise, as you said, I would have put one in because I wouldn't have thought about not putting it in :P - it's just that my most...

    Hello from the totally disioriented newbie

    Any specific reason why you don't like prologues?

    Hello from the totally disioriented newbie

    I do hope you wouldn't mind reserving your no-prologue reading for a little bit and just read one? I have it up on my portfolio and I actually like my prologue better than chapter 1 as most of it is set up in a different world... :P read just a bit and let me know if you think I should cut it...

    Good Fantasy Books for Children?

    What about Enid Blyton? She has those amazing Wishing Chair series, Enchanted Faraway tree series (Moon-face, slippery-slip, silky, saucepan-man - totally awesome!), some fantastic animal-friend series that I cannot recall. Then there's Tamora Pierce, Patricia Wrede, Caroline Stevermere, and if...

    setting limits to magical ability

    If magic supply and use were to be unlimited, there would be no story - for the first unscrupulous, irresponsible magician who came into his/her magic would blow up the world... :P to exaggerate here. Also, if there is no decided system with laws, etc, i think the author could get lazy and just...

    A Marriage of Confusion: Chapter 1

    Chicago, September 5th, 2010 AD. She ached all over. It felt as though a battering ram had been slammed into her poor body repeatedly, by some fierce heavenly avenger. The avenger must have also been exuding a great deal of bright white light, because her eyes seemed to have been blinded...

    A Marriage of Confusion: Prologue

    Jara’din’isk, 8th day of the month of Firi, 120th year Post Migration. Fathomless green eyes blazed out of the mirror. They had long been compared to soft glades and verdant grass, but currently, they were more reminiscent of an unquenchable forest fire, sparking and flaring with restive...
