Not to be sexist, you guys, but my target audience is female, and I'd like to get that sort of feedback. Ladies, I've written two novels of a trilogy set in a parallel world, involving a handful of characters who have to protect their kingdom from treachery within. I confess to significant...

Excellent. I'm on the long road to self-improvement, too. And I can't seem to see the end of it. So is Eijem your world? How grand to go all the way back to the creation myth. Very thorough of you! Here's to giving it the integrity it deserves...I hope I get to read the book someday. ;)

I'm a fan of inspiration myself, Seth, no harm in that. Welcome to the Mythic Scribes forum. You'll find a nice assortment of crazies here; probably enough to make you feel completely sane. Creative outlet is good, so have fun looking around and getting inspired.

Hello, Snikt5 -- Congratulations on your progress and good fortune! Post a link, why don't ya? Or at least the titles to your published works, you'll probably get some readers here. By the way, I thought you might be from Texas with that Howdy. Do people say that in West Wickham? Or are...

Hey, Tim Tim -- Glad you're diving into the wild waters with the rest of us. What are you writing? And what are you drawing? I do both, as well, and fantasy is a new thing for me, so I'm quite the novice myself. Anyway, good to have you here -- :)

Magic mechanics aid...is that related to Magic the card game? Obviously, I know nothing about it, but my son is a big fan. I do like the artwork on Magic cards, and if you do too, then check out the Fantasy Art thread, if you haven't already. And welcome!

Hello, Ky -- How way cool to be an opera singer! I hope I get to hear you someday. I love that world-building helped you clean your apartment. If you can, tell me more specifically what it was that triggered the motivation. I'd like to plant it in my brain and see what happens. For...

Hello, Anna! I'm tickled to be the first to greet you -- I'm pretty new here myself, and also suffered with an internet phobia until recently. Welcome to the 21st century!:D It's a brave new world, no doubt, and it's great to make connections in a place like this. I like your book's title...

I agree with everyone, too. For what language you do use in the story, it's best to come up with a way to explain it in the text.

As a Caucasian who tans easily, I'd leave off the bit about the sun if you want to convey that her skin is dark by birth. If the fact that she lives in a sunny climate is important in that spot, perhaps add a separate phrase about it. My books have a non-Caucasian female MC as well, and I...

Okay, thanks for the link, no doubt it will be helpful. I'm currently editing a first novel for someone, but it's ongoing so if you can send your story in the next day or so, I'll get to it as quick as I can. I consider myself warned about the darkness -- humor is more my style, but I'm...

Okay, 2way, I would love to read it. I'm not a short story writer, but I'm happy to dive in and give it a go if you think a screenwriter-turned-new-novelist could be helpful. Your call. My own offering is the prologue to my first novel, which I think needs to read more like a short story.

Lovely, Joice. You have a natural way with figures, which isn't true of everyone. I'm surprised more people haven't commented here. I'd like to see more of your work!

Very fresh, Nihal, with excellent energy -- entirely captivating. Makes me want to learn digital!

Jose, your work instantly sucks the viewer in. I look forward to seeing more of it.
