I recommend switching between different settings until you find the right one. Is your character sitting in a pub or is patrolling the walls of his fortress? Is he alone? If not, who can engage in a conversation with him? Think small, then add the bigger details.

Dragons all the way. It doesn't matter from which book or universe they come from as long as they're not overly human, aka not humans-dressed-in-dragon-suits. They're also the reason why I won't play Skyrim. I won't be able to bring myself to kill them, even if they're some pixels bunched...

I try not to think too much about it. Sometimes, it's because my imagination refuses to work but other times it's because of the barrier I put between the upcoming flow of description and the fingers that are supposed to type all of that. Why? Because I believe that short description and more...

I agree with that one, but there's something else involved. The pending pen, I call it. This strange phenomenon usually occurs when you need to write chapters based on an already existing plan. The ideas are there, but the mood is quite absent. That's what I hate the most besides writer's block...

I don't really understand your question because are two ways of interpreting it: Dealing with the plot before you begin your work, or after you finish it? If it's option one you're speaking about, then the only options I know of are planning or jumping right into the action and start to write...

Although I've started writing two years ago, I have yet to experience the full version of a writer's block. The only moments when I came close to it was when I had to write tedious scenes I planned 3 or 4 chapters later. "Ok, I'll finish this chappy, then I'll get on the next one and flesh out...

I agree with you, UnionJane. Some writers, even the famous ones, tend to make their fantasy universe a changed version of our world rather than create something more out of the ordinary. One of the things which sticks out REALLY well is that everyone prefers horses as mounts for Riders. God...

I spied on my brother's activities.

......doing other things that were supposed to be done after creating a certain new and obligatory thread. Now, without wolfing around more than I did, lets start with the most commonly used introduction. Hey there. I’ve been sniffing around the forum for couple of days, and even posted a...

Can I make a generalization? I have a strong dislike for boring villains. They're that kind of villains whose motives are evil in the way of pure evil, like "I'm doing this to destroy that thing because I want to, not because it does any kind of good to me). They're the villains who never bother...

You're right... and wrong, at the same time :D. While there was a mix of silliness in my bowl of stew, I didn't jump far from the truth. It all relates to one... well, two facts, actually. One of them is that I'm not a big reader, and two is that Sinitar is my brother so I always tend to...

I tried to give it a read before I was denied that right by the cat above me. I was basically told that it's a typical fantasy story with an evil king, a special order of rangers and a main character that is recruited into said order. That was enough of a persuasion for me not to shuffle through it.
