I tend to agree with Shockley on this one. I never really understood the notion so often proclaimed, that the Antikythera Mechanism was going to totally change the way we understood history or what the ancients where capable of. There were other devices from around the same period that had a...

I love this, I think having as much information about your world as you can really help with writing the story. Visual items like this even more so. I don’t know if I would call this a map mind you, a map via definition displays physical land points and is usually used as a form of...

Let hope he returns soon! I really want to see this go ahead also.

I’ve written every day for a minimum of 2 hours since I was about 13 (although this December for the first time since I broke that streak!). I decided I wanted to make writing a habit very early on and read somewhere that if you do something for 21 days in row, it becomes a habit. I have no idea...

Also worthy of a mention....have not read it but is within the requirements and looks somewhat interesting. Seduction of a Wanton Dreamer

I agree entirely...Dune remains one of my favourite books....but once again I thought every one would have read it already!

The DARKOVER series is what immediately jumped into my mind, but then I have read them so figured there was no point nominating them! Although I would always read them again :wink: Instead I pulled out my leather bound journal labelled "books I want to read" and sifted through the endless...

All quiet on the western front...........any updates Geek?

I'm really interested in this and if you're still keen would like to jump on board. I think having a critique partner, like you said, would really help keep the productivity up, the ideas flowing and the story unraveling. I have something similar-ish elsewhere, but would love to get in on...

Thats a great idea. Might get people to stay in if there is a shiny thing at the end of it!

waits with bated breath......

I don’t fight; I don’t brandish a sword nor axe nor rapier. I have neither battle wounds nor bitter memories of worn torn landscapes. Instead my fellows, I seek to make friends with all the creatures and folk of this lovely world, for life is too short to be bitter. My weapons of choice, a...

There has been talk on the chat of a Mythic Scribes 'Cook Book'. There seems to be, or at least while high upon the euphoric effect of being surrounded by all those wonderful mythic writers, much support toward such a thing. So I decided to start a thread on the very topic. Here is place you...

There surely is no real way to regulate who will and who will not read the titles. To my imagining, the only way to ensure a good amount of continued discussion would be incorporate enough interest into the thread to create a large following. When life gets in the way, or books come up that some...

I AM IN.....I really want to join a book club, but they all spend there days drinking wine and discussing the life changing qualities of titles such as Eat...Pray....Love! So sign me up Geek......
