While it's entirely possible that Terry Pratchett simply isn't for you, just let me say that I'm a huge fan and The Colour of Magic sucks. Early Pratchett is all parody, and most of it is honestly pretty bad. It's well before Pratchett found his feet in the setting or defined his own voice, the...

For the sake of clarity, I might decide that Aeron has accepted the feminine pronoun. That's probably the easiest way; it brings with it the assumption that s/he's biologically female, and I can make it clear in the text that s/he identifies differently. Even with that as a solution, though, it...

The matter of agender individuals could easily be accounted for in the setting, though not dealt with in this story; not all single spirits have to be gendered or even straightforward in gender, and not all Twinsouled have to have 'one of each'. In the real world, the two-spirit concept is more...

I'm currently writing a story centered on Aeron, a character who is biologically female but Twinsouled, an in-universe term I'm using to mean that s/he has both a male and a female soul contained within a single mind. This is loosely based on the real-world Native American concept of Two Spirit...

I typically have a working title. The novel I'm working on at the moment has already had its working title change, and I'm open to the possibility that it will change again several times due to the fact that I have a long way to go before it's done. However, I suspect it will still be some...

My last 'writing group' was based around these lectures, but it fell apart. A lot of fantastic information to be found in these. They've definitely helped me get more of a handle on the process.

I'll miss the Critic, but I think that Doug Walker is right that it's time to move on. I'm looking forward to seeing what he does with the new studio and the new show. As for TGWTG, I'll stick around for sure. There are several other shows on there that I follow. Nostalgia Chick, Todd in the...

I'm curious if there are enough people around here from the Twin Cities and surrounding area that might like to put together a writing group. I'm new to the area and I don't know anyone, so this would be one way to meet the like-minded while giving us a chance to help one another hone our craft.

While I'm not opposed to first-person in any way, I definitely have a preference for third-person both when reading and writing. Third-person limited is my home mode. As a reader, I like the ability it offers to view the world through multiple characters' eyes*, and as a writer, I like the...

Hey everyone, I'm David. I've known I wanted to be a writer since I was just a kid, and since I read Lord of the Rings, there was never any doubt in my mind that epic fantasy would be my focus. I also enjoy science fiction, but I don't write much of that. Despite always being clear about what...
