The Unpronounceable Name

I put up a new post with some thoughts about fantasy names at my 'fantasy worlds' blog: The Unpronounceable Name
This blog tends to be more about my own stuff than fantasy in general. I could mention that I also have a long-running general blog at The Lucky Lad where I post about pretty much anything, including writing. I wasn't sure which one was better for this essay so I'll probably post it at both.

 

Not particularly fantasy-related, but some words about writing about economics, politics, and 'ideas' in general at my primary blog: The Lucky Lad: Economics, Politics, Fiction

 

A post on aliens, portals, etc at my 'fantasy' blog: Aliens?
I might as well continue to just drop links occasionally on this thread.

 

A few short words on myths and stories, and their appearance in different cultures, at the fantasy writing blog:
Green Knights and Golden Fleeces

 

I wrote a few words on Ernest Bramah's Kai Lung character and stories at:
The Lucky Lad: The Storyteller
Cross-posted at my 'fantasy' blog too (the one in my signature).

 

Brief words on a pair of sister-goddesses who have shown up in my fiction:
The Lucky Lad: Two Goddesses

 

'More on the Mora,' a few words on the world of the Mora (of my South Seas Adventure meets Portal Fantasy series) and, peripherally, the WIP.
More on the Mora

 

A quick explanation of the somewhat unusual appearance of some of the characters in my fantasy novels:
Blondes in the Pacific

 

I've put up a couple nuts-and-bolts posts recently at my general-purpose blog, The Lucky Lad: Portals and Na's Choices. Only of interest if such things are of interest!

 

A little essay on resurrection symbolism in The Hobbit at my main blog, The Lucky Lad: The Lucky Lad: Resurrection in the Hobbit

 

I've published a short blog post on Street Lights and World Building, about getting some of the little details right in my WIP (and books to come, maybe).

 

A blog post on those green-skinned orcs and other thoughts: On Green Skin.

 

Some word on modern tech in a 'primitive' fantasy setting and how I went about letting some firearms into the Mora world: The Malvern Guns More about the technology than the writing.

 

I wrote up some thoughts on the intrusive narrator (and narrators in general) at my main blog: The Lucky Lad: The Intrusive Narrator

 

The city of Tesra has been a background presence in some of my fantasy novels, a 'long ago and far away' legendary place generally. In the WIP it is front and center, so I wrote up some notes on the world-building involved at my fantasy writing blog: Tesra, the City of Wizardry.
