Rants and Stuff / Misquote The Person Above You
« on: December 13, 2005, 01:07:17 AM »
Edit:meh, I don't like being smacked down.
News:
"Magic is what makes fantasy fantastic," someone says, "you can't apply rules to them or else it loses wonder!" I respond, "Sure, but if you want to write them you will certainly want to know how they work." Writing is all about execution, and I find applying some basic laws of physics to magic systems make them more understandable and realistic. Here, I'm going to outline my basic method for developing a magic system.

Brandon Sanderson / Lets All Make Fun of Brandon! (not really)
« on: December 02, 2005, 07:31:04 PM »
So I'm just going to post the odd spelling or grammatical error that I run across while reading Dark One Intro that I think is funny. So far this is my favorite:
Quote
a face set with bushy white eyebrows, a bushier white mustache, and a the most bushiest long white beard in the land.

Everything Else / How Badly Would You Guys Kill Me?
« on: November 25, 2005, 06:29:05 PM »
So, if I were to start posting non-stop and talking to myself (both in real life and here, though after reading the advice thread I think this is real life for Dr. SE) just so I can level up, how much would my crushed and defiled corpse hurt?

Writing Group / Characterization
« on: November 24, 2005, 11:46:37 AM »
Gack!
I just realized that I have no idea how a main character of mine would react to anything! This is really my own fault, I've not written in this story for quite a while. Even when I had been writing consistently he was loosely defined. I shall go stew.
