[Hivemind] 99 Dead Baboons...

[arwink]

I'm not good at fantasy because:

a) I'm as prone to gamer/Writer syndrome as much as the next guy, if not more-so.
b) I'm not much good at short time-frames for fiction. Take, for example, the forty-thousand words it took me two years to write for my PhD novel, because I find it easier to wander off and write other forms.
c) I get irritated with my fantasy writing very, very easily. It then tends to mutate and turn into something odd.

I'm actually tempted to spend the entire competition putting together adventure proposal

In any case, I'll see how I go.

Cheat write stories that dont have a defined environ And just say its fantasy

 

[arwink]

Yes, but that would be, well, cheating.

I think I'll just aim for a series of magic realism or gothic fantasy drafts, and hope to hell I can maintain focus for that long.

Youll do fine

Besides: Ceramic is short stories anywayz!

Its still only us, mondayz are slow to

 

[arwink]

Short stories are my worst subject though.

Maybe I should try for narrative poetry...

Monday's are always slow. Everyone else is enjoying Sunday night, I think. Gaming and watching movies and eating with family. That kind of stuff.

Hows the clockwork golem going? And your other projects?

 

[arwink]

Clockwork golem is more or less on scheduel. We've got a list of items planned for the next update (in about eight days time), most of which will have a necromantic bent to keep with tradition

(Isn't everyone required to do necromancer stuff when they start out?)

Other projects are slightly stalled. I go on a weeklong break next week, though, so I'll have time to catch everything up then.

It seems Evil, particulairy Necromancy. Is the stuff everyone can come up with the first

I guess. Strangely, all of this is stuff we came up with while brainstorming War then dismissed because it was more death than war focused.

It'll be fun. I just have to hope I can do justice to Khynal's concepts when I start on stats.

FtF discussions are better than online discussions for thsi kinda stuff.
