    Why do you write fantasy?

    Because to me its either this or science fiction. Or modern times. I don't really have much love for other genres.

    Female armour in fantasy books/games

    You have a valid point on how practicality doesn't matter in a fantasy setting, I'll have to give you points for that. While I can't make the same statement for everyone else, I'll have to say that the current trend (aka probably since the beginning) is that the armour/costume is highly...

    Is it a good idea to put humour in a rather serious novel?

    I don't see why not, as long as its strategically placed to relief tension. It is after all, comedy relief. Just keep it in moderation, like everything else.

    Female armour in fantasy books/games

    Its because artists overseuxalise women, for whatever reason. Practicality is usually thrown out of the window, not always but usually when they draw up women. Why is that? Probably because sex appeal and everyone follows the same guideline: there needs to be less armour and more flesh. Its gone...

    Map making software

    If you mean a software whereby you just plug in some numbers and it generates a map for you or anything, then sorry, don't know any software that can help you with that. If its just a graphics program then I recommend Photoshop or GIMP. GIMP is free but I personally hate it. I hear some...

    Fantasy Name Generator

    I have that site bookmarked, its pretty good I guess. Though I don't really dig most of the names so I just try to think of something on my own anyways (and spend literally 2 hours doing it). I'll put this one out there too.

    I echo the same sentiment as the man above me. What is this sorcery?

    Writer's Tools

    I'm not sure why you'd even ask the question in the first place if your position on Google is that to begin with. If you don't trust Google then you're better off with alternatives, not like they're any better however. Based on what you're saying, you shouldn't be trusting anything on the...

    Writer's Tools

    Every user of Google Drive gets 5 gb of free storage (apparently the amount of storage is shared with Google+). You can subscribe to a monthly plan of 25 gb for $2.50 USD, all the way up to 16 TB for $800 (I have no idea who needs that much storage but there you have it). On an unrelated note...

    Writer's Tools

    I whole heartedly recommend Google Drive, I do all of my writing there. Much less hassle than having to have a physical Word document carried around whenever I want to do more writing elsewhere. A nice thing is that it saves every change you make to it on the fly so you don't ever have to worry...

    Thanks for the greeting guys. You may have a point Xaysai, though I doubt my own "voice" is unique haha.

    Hi there. I'm new here, obviously. I'll try to keep my introduction hopefully short and simple. I began writing [terrible] stories online about 9 years ago when I was 11 (I'm 20 right now). Began seriously roleplaying when I was 13, loved writing though it always was a on and off affair for...
