Hi Nimue. I felt so sad reading your original post. We hear the siren song of writing, and it is a beautiful torture a lot of the time. I write to immerse myself in the Worlds I have created, and I can only do so by assuming NO ONE will ever read my work. I will NEVER try to become published...

I read The Lord of the Rings when I was ten, twice, and I've read it nineteen times since. Dad placed Dune on my pillow when I was thirteen, (Making sure I only ever read the first book!) and I loved it. He then gave me his Asimov collection. Before I turned fifteen I was a Sci Fi and Fantasy...

This is a long and old post, and I have read many replies, though not all, so I apologise if another has already stated this opinion, however I honestly believe you have to write what you know, and thus, write what you love. My MC's are hetero, though many of my supporting characters are gay...

Hi, I have finished my Trilogy, and I don't really plan. At the moment I am doing a final re-write of all three, making sure I have enough threads, details and saturation of my World to carry through to books 4,5,6,7,8 and 9, without the unrealistic sudden addition of facts or information...

I try to give my characters their own voice, and their personality can shine through as well, so one may be louder, one is interrupted a lot, another might have a particular way of speaking, for example, saying "ahhm", or chewing a nail. I might also include a nickname, however I have no issues...

Another favourite is Tides of War, from the Warlords of Draenor, World of Warcraft soundtrack. Warlords of Draenor Soundtrack - 19 - Tides of War - YouTube

Great thread! I love Audiomachine, Two steps from hell, Howard Shore (The Lord of the Rings Soundtrack), and the World of Warcraft soundtrack. One of my favourites, Nameless Heroes, by Audiomachine...

I always write a 'test' story when I'm stuck. I don't touch my original manuscript, so I copy and paste the chapters I am stuck on, and then I take every risk and challenge I can in order to see where I can take the story, or where the characters take the story, or the events, etc. There is no...

Reaver, I thought your avatar was from he-man? Mine is a water colour I painted a couple of years ago. I have a penchant for painting naked Fairies; male, female, with disabilities, skinny, overweight, etc. Very inclusive, ha. :)

I created the two main characters in my Trilogy in 1988, when I wrote the first draft of a few chapters and outlined a World which would become the place I prefer to exist in now! (Just kidding- sort of.) I was in my late teens and when I wasn't reading I was writing or teaching myself Tolkien's...

I have just levelled my Demon Hunter to 120 in Warcraft. I love her fight animations, and the lore is great. She is a lot of fun to play. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
