    A Memory of Light (Final Wheel of Time Book)

    So I just finished the book... I feel conflicted.

    What is the most gripping novel you've ever read? Fantasy or otherwise?

    The most gripping novel I ever read? It is tough to say since I read books quickly even when I am not enthralled to them. I would have to say Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I started reading it around 10 or 11 am the Saturday it came out and did not stop reading until I finished it at...

    This or that?

    Lawful Evil, my character maybe Lawful Neutral but he definitely has evil tendancies (he is an assassin after all) Elf or Human?

    This or that?

    Shells and Cheese! There was a point in my childhood when I wouldn't eat the other because it was "different" which drove the rest of my family nuts. broadsword or rapier?

    Age of the hobbits

    Watching the trailer I was like "this is... uhhh... inter- Oxygen Magnesium! Was that Christopher Judge?" After a quick search on IMDb, where it has the title "Lord of the Elves" I found that is was "indeed" him. (hehe anybody? Stargate Sg1 joke? :biggrin:) My biggest question is how did they...

    Books You Want to Read in 2013

    A Memory of Light by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson definitely tops my list Stormlight Archive 2 by Brandon Sanderson is another one, I kind of just want to know the title is going to be. It was going to be "The Book of Endless Pages" but that isn't the best name for an eight hundred plus...

    Best Novels You Read in 2012

    It's tough to say, I read a lot of great books last year but if I was forced to choose my top three... The Fault in Our Stars by John Green, it is a YA not a fantasy so it is a bit outside of my normal reading but I watch the videos the author and his brother make on youtube (they're the...

    Magic: The Gathering

    I have a fairly large number of cards (the bookstore I frequent had packs of thirty cards for less than three dollars - it was a deal I found hard to resist) but I really don't know how to play. I want to learn, I just don't have anybody to teach/play with me. Hopefully, that will change soon.

    A Memory of Light (Final Wheel of Time Book)

    I plan on getting it soon after it is released, if not the day of, and finish it within a couple days. I have not yet decided how I feel about the series coming to a close. Part of me is happy that I will finally know how the story ends but the rest is all "I WANT MOAR." While I would love to...

    Arrow

    I watched the first few episodes and liked what I saw but I just haven't had time to catch myself up. I really want to watch a significant chunk of it before a make any judgements on its quality but at the moment I'm thinking it is pretty middle-of-the-road, not this-is-horrible but then again...

    Hobbit Production Diary #10 - World Premiere

    I think it is really interesting how New Zealand has taken Middle-earth and made it its own. Of course, it is a tourism thing but I still think it is cool, and it only makes me want to go there more. I love that they made, and will continue to make, these video blogs because I for one was not...

    What do you want to be Besides an Author?

    I plan on being a Historian or maybe a Museum Curator, writing is something I do for fun. Even if I could make a living writing, I probably wouldn't quit being a historian because it has been my dream job since before I can remember (though the period I'm interested in has changed from Ancient...

    Hobbit Production Diary #9 - Post Production

    Hmm... I don't think they are having enough fun. :) I almost can't believe the premiere is almost here, but I'm glad it is being worked on by so many talented people. Every group of people wowed me, especially the musicians doing the soundtrack (I am so glad Howard Shore is back I love him)...
