    Nasur

    Part I It must've been about 20 years since the sun last shone on Cyria. The False Wars had a big effect on the world, but not many chose to remember it. It had been nightmarish; the visions of death and deformed human bodies haunted many Cyrians for many years. Most of them managed to...

    Anyone else a fan of Erikson's Malazan books?

    Here I am again to express my frustration in not having ordered the Bonehunters book in time. I have just finished the Midnight Tides book and

    Anyone else a fan of Erikson's Malazan books?

    I am a great great fan of Erikson's Malazan series. I am currently reading the House of Chains but I just can't put the book down. The world, the back story, the characters (we love Quick Ben!), the setting, and mostly the fight scenes, are wonderful. I too have noticed the love or hate...

    Writing Unreality: Am I really a Fantasy Writer??

    I agree, it sounds like you ARE writing fantasy; and I like your ideas. All those points you made about what fantasy fiction is, are just generalisations and in no way do they apply to the broader sense of fantasy.

    Skyrim - tell us about your character

    I started out with a Dark Elf thief/mage but not sure which side I will like the best, thieving or wizarding! Still on the first quests :P

    Really Long Sentences and the Commas That Love Them

    My opinion is that long running sentences can tire the reader and are not always necessary. Especially if it is like your example where you keep adding clauses with "and". I think there are specific circumstances where a long sentence would be better than small sentences but as a general rule, I...

    Where are you from?

    Alright, time for another European to post here! I have lived in many places around the world but here's my story: I was born in Indiana, USA, moved to Greece when I was 4, grew up here and left to go back to the USA to study. After studying in the USA, I moved back to Greece to serve in the...

    Favourite MMORPGs :)

    I won't hide that I am surprised to see that in a fantasy forum, Age of Conan has only got one mention, and that negative. I find Age of Conan a great MMO, probably the most beautiful looking at the moment, with great story and loyal to Howard's world. I would suggest you all give it a try, it...

    Fantasy Names

    I used to look around the internet for name generators which didn't do much for me so I gave them up. My mind works wonders coming up with names that sound like they alone could describe the character. If that fails, looking through mythologies of the world does wonders!

    How do you *spark* your ideas, and creat your stories?

    I think sometimes you do have to pound things out of your head, you have to make the story move along and eventually end at some point. I have a feeling that if you just wait for things to come up, yea you'll get a great story most of the time but you might never finish it or it might become...
