    Fantasy Races: Staples or New Creations?

    In the end, given time I tend to end up with both, but I find that Staples or traditional with a twist tends to be the best. Of course, as one of us pointed out, the vision of traditional races is relatively recent, and heavily influenced by a couple of very prolific authors. I do create my...

    Forgot to add where you can find it. It's here on Amazon: The Underking. Sorry for the double post, and thank you.

    Fantasy Races: Staples or New Creations?

    Is it better to just use the staples of fantasy (Elves, Dwarves, etc...) or to create new races all your own? I understand there is usually a mix, but for the sake of this I just want to know your opinion on what you'd prefer to see in a story if you only could have one or the other. I am a...

    Hi

    Welcome friend, I am also new around here, but it's awesome that you have art skills too. I have been recruiting for months now, its pretty hard to do both, in my opinion, so work hard at it! We are all here for you as well!

    Have you ever contracted "world builders disease"?

    I have a problem like this, its not quite the same. Its more of an idea pops into my head, and then even when I try to avoid it, my imagination crafts a world around it. For one such project, it took up so much brain space I ended up writing it all up. My google drive regrets it.

    Greetings and Salutations!

    It's nice to be part of a community. I have a couple friends who are almost into writing, but they don't get down into it, they like to dream, and I try to push them forwards, but alas I am but a solitary soul. Still, I hope to have a good time with all of you.

    Musical Madness

    For me, it can almost any song that catches my fancy, but lately its been Ordinary World by Duran Duran (Evil Within II Trailer Remix), which was hilarious to me because I was dying to find a way to actually write that scene, and then I heard the song, and it was all done for me. Another one is...

    Musical Madness

    So, I have the weirdest habit, and I want to know if any other writers go through this. I sometimes hear a song, and it catches some part of my imagination, and until I put that scene down to paper (digitally or otherwise) the song never leaves. I can listen to it for days on end without losing...

    Greetings and Salutations!

    Hello, I am a fairly new author, but I have been writing for over a decade and finally really figured out I should put my nose down and do something. I did, and I've been quietly sitting on it since. It took me over six months to think, maybe I should join a community, and so here I am. I...
