Hey guys! I think it's so cool that there's a forum just for fantasy readers and writers. I haven't read or written a terrible lot of fantasy, but I just got a story idea for that genre and I was hoping you guys could help me out a little. Maybe you could suggest good books to read to get into the genre? I've read LOTR, The Hobbit, part of Eragon, Harry Potter (I'm not sure if everyone counts this as fantasy, but I do), some Percy Jackson, Narnia, and a few short fantasy stories by George MacDonald.
About me: I'm about to start my second year of college. I used to be in the nursing program, but I left because I realized that I am in no way, shape, or form a science person. I'm in the English program now. Currently, I'm working a very friendly but very boring summer job, which is why I have time to surf the internet and join forums.
My real name is not Piper, but that's my character's name in a Marvel RPG I'm currently playing. The other PCs have taken to calling my name very loudly whenever my character gets into trouble or is about to do something stupid. They do it to me at work now. "PIPERRRRRRR!!!!!"
I like to poke fun at tropes no matter what I'm writing, so if you'd like to suggest any fantasy cliches, that'd be awesome as well.
It's great to meet you all!
