Romance: Keeping the Flame Alive

In the spirit of full disclosure, I snagged this song idea from All Songs Considered. So you and your RP group have decided to run with a romance story. You’ve agreed to certain boundaries and you’re having a grand old time. What do you do next? You keep the story alive. Look, a story is [...]

Lurch

On occasion, we encounter an character who is a bit of lurch. Someone like this guy: A character who is either stupid or willfully obtuse. Dealing with a lurch is no different than dealing with any other difficult character. Some might scream at a lurch, some may ignore a lurch while others just love their [...]

First, Finest and Last: Era

Shad by *JRinaldi on deviantART The Rider’s resident Midwife and all-around stand up cat, Haemon Shadowind, was the second to write up First, Finest and Last. Here is another brilliant sample for your own FFL. This is Era. There are many cat spirits, but this one is a favorite. Enjoy! Any one of them could [...]

First, Finest And Last Wednesday: Tarquin

This is the post that started it all. Very much a brilliant piece of work and a fantastic introduction to Tarquin.   Em had been his first, though even then he’d not known if she was Emily, or Emma, or something stranger. She’d been at least twenty, with a brittle smile and fine dark hair [...]

Friday Fiction: A Charm Against the Bloody Prince

Arthas lich king by ~chevsy on deviantART Naiara also allows for an interesting flash-back/flash-forward kind of fiction. Personally, I found it easier to figure out Wildfire Riders role in killing the Lich King by using Naiara. Naiara ran as fast as she could, away from the University and the bastards that could not keep their [...]

Rough Draft Sunday

This is the oldest part of Harvest Ball. I’ve been working on it for damn near a year, and this is the first full draft I finished. There’s still more to go… But since its sunday, and no one reads blogs on sunday, I figured I could post it here. Robert, William and the Ruddy [...]

Harvest Ball

Neither Bricu, nor Threnn, have Antisocial Personality Disorder. While Bricu might score as high on the checklist, he has far too many protective factors to have high levels of psychopathy. Threnn’s scores would be, at best, average. Regardless of their scores, Harvest Ball is a newish story from the early days of their relationship. They’ve [...]

Nano Product #1

Like the art?  Buy some from Lore today!  I’m not following the Nano rules this year. I’m working on finishing a number of pieces that are well over due. Today is the first part of that fic: An early Bricu and Threnn story that I started last year. Bricu arrived at Threnn’s apartment at a [...]

Slogging Through

http://www.flickr.com/photos/wwarby/ / CC BY 2.0 A number of the Nano-folk talk about slogging through their word counts. They want to to keep up–or exceed–their daily word totals. I can understand that. Writing is a craft that, on occasion, requires a lot of slogging: Prep work, Revisions, Dialogue you’re not sold on. I know when I [...]
