A what will never be a completed list of links.

I will get to posting what the people asked me to write about - later.
Through the years that I have been writing, I have found link after link that has inspired me. The list I have compiled off the top of my head is short, but will grow quickly.

1. Seventh Sanctum
2. Chaotic Shiny
3. Serendipity
4. Squid.org

This is just the beginning. I'm sure that, once I scour through all the e-mails I've sent people I'll find more writing related links.
Have a link? What do you think the comment box is for? **hint, hint**

Poll results.

The results are in!
Three people voted for "Too many to count!"
And one person voted for "1" and for "Too many to count."
Alright, so there are people besides me with far too many writing projects going - nice to know I'm not alone.

Next poll will be. . . . coming soon!
Thank you for voting!

A story and a point

Writing - you give it everything you have. Sometimes that's enough, sometimes it isn't.

When I was 11, I started on this story, it was my first attempt at writing, and it was the best thing i ever wrote - so I thought.

I look through it now, and there are a couple sections that I want to burn. The voice is awkward throughout most of it, characters make ridiculous mistakes and do things that don't really make sense - all for honor. As you get to the end, though, you begin to see it change. The voice becomes a little smoother, plot holes begin to mend, and it gets better.

And then I stopped writing it. I stopped writing.

Then I found inspiration, I began writing again. This time, the story was better. And it went on for a few months, then I dropped it. I had become very interested in one of the secondary characters, I began writing about her.

So many versions poured out of that decision, and not all of then were very good.

That characters name was Sorrow Fleetfoot, I am currently on my . . . umpteenth version, and enjoying every minute.

The point to this story? (Yes, there actually is a point to this story.)

Writing gets better the more experience you have, and the more you do it.

Quote of the day

"All you need is love"
~ John Lennon

A little help would be lovely.

Alright. It has been brought to my attention by a certain someone that the name Shin-ti could be interpreted as Shi'ite, and that it could be seen as me taking sides of something that I probably don't want to take sides on.
So, I'm trying thinking up new names for the Shin-ti. That's where you come in.
What name would you give a band of the best H'carian warriors, the ones that guard the queen, and serve her and only her? The very best of the best, her personal little army to do her dirty work for her? These warriors kill entire villages, sneak into places, kill innocents in the name of H'car and war.
Well?
Please note that at best, Shin-ti was a working title for them, and if you and I cannot think of a good name, I shall simply keep on using Shin-ti. There really is no pressure.
