P.s. sorry for any typos, i am at work as i write and I use voice to speech from my phone so I can cover a lot of ground in a short time when I'm free.

Ok, I'm getting straight to it, it began with nothing but a magic system and a fighting system with magic, I am also a science nerd so I wanted the system to be based on something real, so I picked neuroplasticity as the medium for magic. As the brain changes its neural patterns depending on our...

Hello everyone, I came here with the expectation of writing something in the chat, but then I thought it might be best to have an open thingy here in the forums. About 3 weeks ago I had a spark of inspiration, about a new high fantasy world filled with magic, monsters, kingdoms, politics and a...

*Adjusting his mindset according to the tempo of the fight! (I don't know what autocorrect did at the end of this comment, but ai did not catch it at all)

A very good point! I never thought about it that way. The change in tempo in the description, is probably making the experience more vivid for the reader I see suggesting his mindset according to the temple of the fight!

I am not very good at the critique thing, but as I'm working through the page the forums etc, I am trying to give my honest opinions! I'll be sure to lookout for the critique requests and try to give my opinions on those as well!

Thank you so much! I think it will come back to this post quite a few times!

The only cure for "cold feet" is a trusty Charizard. Do you usually start writing and follow the story, in a free writing kind of way? Because what usually helps me go through stories is a skeleton. I have been using the same tactic since the university when I wanted to go through essays. I...

I actually did not wait, and as soon as I found the showcase room, I uploaded it there...

A mythic poetic narrative, following the shadow of a fallen Knight, as it descends the Underworld, desperately looking for a way to alter the decision of fate, and return to the land of the living.

Thank you all for your opinions, now I really want to see some critiques of the actual work! Maybe once I unlock the portfolio thingy here I could upload the first of four parts. (I am still learning the ropes here and I don't want to shove links in everyone's faces or abuse the platform). I...

It is not exactly a test, the whole thing is finished in text and I am currently working with an illustrator... I have not yet read the epic of Gilgamesh to compare but it is not really like Homer's poetry where the lyric quality is based on the number of syllables. Mine is more random. It...

Sorry for the title, I had no idea what to put there, but here goes: What would be your first thought if you saw someone promoting a project that they described as a dark mythic poetic narrative? That is, a story that is written more or less in rhymes. I haven't had any actual training in...

Thank you, I appreciate that. I'm more of a hand-to-hand combat person and not the sword fighting kind of guy (not for lack of trying, I simply have not found an instructor yet in my very very small town in Greece) though I understand what you mean about pretending. I will definitely keep all...

Thank you all for your responses. I am usually somewhere between making it too detailed like the fights of one of my favorite childhood heroes Drizzt do Urden Sorry for the spelling I have only ever seen it written in the Greek translations. But when I came back to it a few months ago I realized...
