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.

 

Some brief words on vats of slime and other topics: The Lucky Lad: Genre Conventions and Vocabulary

 

Some thoughts on fantasy creatures, world building, and the new novel at my everyday blog: The Lucky Lad: Night Wasps and the City

 

This is probably as wrong a place to mention this as any but I've put up the beginnings of a new blog specifically for sharing some of my short fiction (not all of it fantasy). That would be Tales by Stephen Brooke. I'm starting things off with stories that have previously been published somewhere or another. The first story is: Tales by Stephen Brooke: A Dragon in Distress
