Keeping Track
|
Writing a fantasy sci-fi series, one can imagine the number of names, places, and terms for things in other languages—foods, animals, types of cloth—to keep track of. Even descriptions that go with characters and locations. I decided early on in Elf Stone of the Neyna, Book 1 of the Lost Xentu series, I'd provide a glossary. But not until I'd …

Berlin At Last
|
My daughter has been studying the German language on her own since she was 14. Her interest began with political and cultural online forums. Her admiration of German film was one of the major inspirations that led her to these forums. Over the years, she became fluent by her own study. Eventually, she took college courses and ended up majoring …

Romance Your ...
|
Not long ago, I posted about the start of the book Romance Your Brand. Really that was my favorite part, the start of the book. But the book seller first sent me the wrong book, her follow up Romance Your Goals and I decided to keep it. I'm reading it. It has some good tidbits, too. It's not even so …

Coastal Bike Ride; Controversial Mill Pond
|
Yesterday i rode the full Coastal Trail that's only been open about 13 years. First, the area—all the coastline next to the town of Ft. Bragg in Northern California—was fenced off for the 420 acre mill site, largest redwood mill in the country. Well, at least for a hundred years or so. When the mill shut down, the site remained …

What literary pilgrimages have you gone on?
|
I’ve written before about how i chose the location for the medieval part of the first Braided Dimensions series without having been there. Throughout the writing, i imagined, just based on maps and reading about the areas, going and figuring out what place could fit for Kyna’s home. It was by utter happenstance that, that when I made up my …

Sneak Preview
One of the great joys of working with an artist who loves fantasy literature is seeing what she'll create from an idea.
|
Here is part of her Elven treehouse from the outside. See it from the inside below.
|
|
|
|
I described to my new artist, Sabrina Bedford, how I see the Elven treehouse interiors described in the book.
|
Here's an excerpt, p. 109:
|
"From a leafy tunnel, they emerged onto a splendid pavilion. Light cast in from many angles, spangling through small crystals that swung and cast rainbows. A firm, matted floor opened out into eating, sleeping and study areas on separate, raised levels. Books and a pleasing clutter of other objects were held onto shelves by ropes, like on a ship, or Traveler caravan."

The books haven't yet been added to the back cover image.
