    Designing a magic system- any ideas?

    Hi guy's. I am designing the magic system for my novel and was wondering if you could throw in some ideas to help me out. The magic system is based on seven stones each with their own magical system. The stones are the origins of these magical systems, people long time ago that found each...

    Has your story ever mutated?

    It is true that this Story is my "Golden Idea" and it has turned into some kind of an obsession with me. I have tried to put it away through the years and focus on my other books, but I keep coming back to this one. The first one, the one I somehow have to finish even if it turns out to be crap...

    Has your story ever mutated?

    I am 25 now, and I get that my story is different than the one I got when I was young, personal experience and growth does play a big part. But the strange thing is that I have had about four or five big mutations in the past three years. Thankfully I can use a lot of the interesting parts I got...

    Has your story ever mutated?

    I got curious as this is happening for the 150th time to me with this story, if anyone else is or has gone through the same thing. The fact is that I have been working on a story since I was around eleven-twelve years old, it is an epic fantasy. My problem is that every time I start working on...

    I'm working on a new idea and I have the basic plot planned. who they major characters are and who the opposing force are. I am having a little problem in deciding on the special magical powers the main characters have and it's central to the story. In the story there is a priesthood that...

    A crypt and a magical hot spot- help!

    Butterfly. Right now I am focusing mostly on the power the hot spot give the characters but this has given me great ideas for later in the novel. The hot spots could have more to offer than what the characters know in the beginning of the story. I like the idea that the beast in the prison has...

    A crypt and a magical hot spot- help!

    Jessquoi The questions are of great help. I like the idea of only a certain bloodline being able to excess the hot spot as it limits the number of people that are able to take in the power and of course makes it more difficult for our main characters. ( conflict is the writers best friend, is...

    A crypt and a magical hot spot- help!

    Jessquoi I have to admit that there is a lot I have to figure out and that is why I didn't put a very long description here, I didn't want to have it to complicated so that no one would have the time to read it. Also the reason I did this was in hopes people would bring up questions that I might...

The crypt is mean to do this to warn people of what has happen and what they can expect as this beast and his...

    How to dethrone a Queen?

    I had though of her going on visits as the new Queen and in the beginning it will work, it's later in the book when she starts going to places that the queen wouldn't be expected to go, that's when it becomes a problem. I have to be able to justify her absence, it won't go unnoticed when she...

    How to dethrone a Queen?

    The Queen happens to be the main character in the story so unfortunately I can't kill her and revolution will take the story in a different direction ( though I will keep it in mind). What my problem seems to be is my lack of knowledge when it comes to monarchy. I chose to dethrone her...

    How to dethrone a Queen?

    Thanks for the ideas they have certainly gotten the ball running. Now I am wondering when the king was killed there was a security breach for the antagonist was able to get into the palace without raising any alarms ( he was a friend of the king some fifty years ago) now they have to tighten up...

    How to dethrone a Queen?

    A queen in my story has to be dethroned. She has only had the position for a short time after her grandfather was murdered. The antagonist wants her out of the seat of power so he can have a man of his own choosing take it instead through the council ( he is manipulating them for his gain)...

    Half demon pregnancy

    I'm writing a paranormal fantasy story and I have a small problem as the birthday and conception day have to be the same. Would it be completely crazy if the pregnancy of a half demon -half human baby took 12 months instead of the normal nine.
