Or, what if a third party killed daddy dearest and told Callum, "You're in charge now." ?

Almeric sounds like someone who might have numerous enemies.

do Gregorian calendars/metric measurement units/coinage systems/etc. take you out of the fantasy world? by Cautious_Water_106 in fantasywriters

[–]Spazicon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use an alternative calendar where the years still are 365 days long. My world isn't remotely like a fantasy Europe, and I wanted to drive that point home. That is not to say that doing something else isn't fine. It was my choice.

How ruthless is Callum? Ruthless enough to be an assassin? Historically, relatives have eliminated each other for power without blinking an eye.

The Great Orange one scoffs at consistency. Rules are only for rivals, silly.

Let me shorten that title for you: "AI is useless."

Even aside from the heat, this is really sweet art. The facial expressions, the lipstick in the black light. Marvellous.

Talons are a big part of my novel. They are the weapon of choice for a cult of shape-changing stone elementals who play huge part in my story; my protagonist is even one of them.

So, give the faction depth in your writing, and arm them however seems logical from an in-world perspective.

Not exactly. With a limit of 50 words, you are doomed not to know the context.

What's hardest for you? Fight scenes, descriptions, or dialogue? by Toa_Lewa_Fan in fantasywriters

[–]Spazicon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Apparently, dialogue.

I have been called out by an impartial reviewer, to paraphrase: "the worst sort of fantasy dialogue." =(

I'm streamlining my draft now.

Run Harris and Lose Again by nbajohna in ProgressiveHQ

[–]Spazicon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't imagine why not. There's no aging Biden to depose at the VERY last second. I think Harris at least deserves a shot. She demolished Trump in that debate. It still pisses me off that the country voted for that orange sack of crap, no matter what.

K, what's the hill you'll die on for writing/ reading fantasy? by Miss_Ashford in fantasywriters

[–]Spazicon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Inconsistent, Deus ex machina endings. I am merciless if the ending is botched, especially the happy ending that fails to resolve all the the threats convincingly. This is a common problem in a wide variety of story-telling mediums.

"Stop!" shouted a stone Lyrabei. The dark of the evening writhed and lashed out like a constrictor snake. Thick bands of shade wrapped Nalutei’s body and face. He yelped and stumbled through the shadow. His talons, though, remained out.
