Well, good luck solving this problem! :-)
If your goal is to make Leogaire not an idiot but have him be discovered, the trick I think is to make Cadell smarter. Perhaps Cadell has a spell...
Have him leave something important downstairs that he needs to get before he can leave. Have it be important enough that Loeghaire decides he has...
Meh. I'm not going to get all worked up about it. Jim Davis does very little of Garfield any more, and everyone knows hit. It's still "Garfield,...
OP: eleventy-pants times. Any more than that is just too much.
Apparently Voltaire said "the perfect is the enemy of the good" (I say "apparently" because people tend to believe Voltaire said everything) and I...
The best time for me to write is "whenever I get the chance." Usually these days that's at night, after my daughter has gone to bed. The problem...
I actually agree with Little Storm Cloud here. An author can choose to write anything he or she likes--I'll always defend that--but no reader has...

You really have to make sure that the two of you are compatible as writers, but it can work. Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle are as famous for...
I have a serial I'm publishing where everything is written in present tense. The reason I do this is because I'm trying to emulate, through prose,...
How are you going to get the text to do that disappearing scrolling thing? I think that's your biggest hurdle. ;-)
The problem is when it's already been associated with another author's name. Unless you've reviewed 100 books, you don't get librarian rights (or...
Yeah, Shadow Fox, I'd like to know why you feel so confident you know how the magic system in my world works better than I do. I think this would...
... I do have an author page on Goodreads. I was using past tense in that example.
Disagree. My problem isn't with my readers. My problem is with SEARCH ENGINES. Sony placed some other guy's bio in the entry for my book, because...
Ummm... yeah. "Depending on how magic and mages function in my world." That's sort of my call, isn't it?
I have a WIP where depending on their specialty, some wizards prefer using firearms to magic because it's faster. Sure, there are times when...
I've tried almost every combination of my real name and found someone with that combination claiming to be an author on Google. That doesn't mean...
