What I've been up to, writing-wise

[kellinator]

In the interests of proving I actually have been doing some writing lately:

spikepage and her husband, who I met through the Atlanta miniatures painting group (we're painting at the War Room this Sunday afternoon if anyone wants to join us) got me hooked on Warlord, Reaper Miniatures' new tabletop skirmish game. They've got a pretty cool website for it where you can record your battles (you're placed in a province according to your actual geographic location) and get point for your victories. I'm playing Elves and so far I'm 4 out of 7. They're accepting fan fiction for points. This is especially intriguing to me; since they've said that battles will affect the overall story as it goes on, I'm hoping they might count in some fanfic too. Here's my first submission:

Broken Arrows

I'm pretty pleased with it. I need to get to work on my next one.

I like the descriptions. And the dialogue was also very good. You let us know what was going on and let the characters reveal themselves, but didn't overwhelm us with information.

Hey hey.. good move promoting your fic on here. I was just about to send you a PM suggesting that very notion.

Don't let little-miss-elfy-britches fool ANY of you folks. She's a closeted orc-fancier. Last week she was making cow-eyes at my orcish spearmen.

I said it before and I'll say it again. If every elf could be an orc just for one saturday night, they'd never want to be an elf again.

Peace-out!

From your lack of posting L&O drabbles, I assume the L&O fanfic communities are still in the toilet?

You really need to look at the Confrontation minis sometime. They have incredible detail on the carving.
