just finished elantris for the first time <3 <3 <3

I have to say, excellent political view. The one book i have read that actually specifies political concerns of both non and main characters. however, the lack of war made me sad :/    Still up VERY high on my list of favorites.

I, on the other hand, am quite fond of his work, despite some...ah...flaws. Any books you guys know of that would be impressive enough to change my mind?

The powers-matrix was actually created for a video game I intended to design, an RTS where you could...well...combine powers.

I did something similar to that to get an interesting story idea. I looked at my DVD collection, closed my eyes, and grabbed two or three at random. I then forced myself to combine the core storylines. I tried to find common elements between them no matter how odd. I actually combined Shawn of the Dead with the live action Popeye movie. You would be surprised at how well that worked.  When I tried this with the Stock Superpowers I got Your Hearts Desire combined with Powers via Possession. Hilarity ensued!  ;D
Can't wait to read it! sounds funny :) and i suppose headless monkeys in this case were considered technology, but in some cases technology is a form of magic,lol

Writing Group / Re: Plotting Chapter by Chapter

the good thing about writing is when you know exactly what happens and when, you can make an outline and just write the parts you want to and then fill in the others later, that way when you are feeling in a writing type mood, you don't have to try and push past a part to get to the next big scene. You just go straight there. I am barely on chapter four of my book and have already written chapter six. I just felt like it.

Are the smiley faces intentional? Because, without being insulting, I find them... unpleasant. Some meaningful mark in front of the names would me nice, but I find the smilies a poor choice :(

 :)  ;) :D  ;D  :P  sorry. I couldn't help but be flippant.
