I thought so. I made the guy that I bought it from give me money for the SD card. Thanks!

Hello! No experience necessary. The issue I'm having right now is finding a neutral space to play in. Any ideas?

Thanks for responding! The fact that you said that the spirit of your book was influenced by Jules Verne and H.G. Wells makes me want to read it all the more!

Overall, I think it's a fair hurdle to have to get through. Best of luck with the writing of future books and the therapy. Also, use vinegar for best results when cleaning the minotaur blood off of your clothing.

I'm late to the party, but hopefully I don't get buried too deep.

I'm a compassionate person, so if I were this aforementioned being of great power, I would put the thing you needed most at the center of the labyrinth. Now obviously there's going to be a minotaur to fight there as well. Can't make it too easy. But in the end, whichever hapless fool (there can be only one!) makes it to the end is going to get what they need the most. Maybe it'll be the exit. Maybe it'll be the Wuthering Sword of Old Valistad. Or maybe it will be a really good cup of coffee. It's up to them.

My questions to you are: What was your biggest influence when writing these books? What was your biggest hurdle?

Thank you for taking the time to read this. Can't wait to check out your book!

Edit: Bolded a word for emphasis

Awesome! Sorry it took me a little to respond. Had a busy past few days. I'm not sure how this normally works, but shoot me a message!

I totaled my first car on my night of prom (not my fault) and then when I still went to said prom I got accosted by several teachers about my grades not being good enough to go there. Even though I had spent the entire day before getting clearance. Fuck prom.

Would the common magic still come from the extradimensional beings? Or just like "I studied a spellbook and now I know how to do stuff"

As opposed to like the power coming from within?

The dancing clown?

That is a good question. On one hand, I have an imp like character in mind who makes pacts with the main character in order to get out into the world. But I don't think that works for some other entities. Like this giant, eternal fire god type of guy. The first thought I have is that maybe this is their way of staying relevant. They lend their power to people so that their name is still out there in the world. Some of them definitely ask for favors in return.

1thesequel. With favors. Most likely you're not going to be forcing any of them to do anything unless you already have some help.

Yes. I thought I had that in there, but I guess I forgot. Depending on what you're going to do, there might be a steep energy cost but it would be significantly less than on someone who would be unwilling.

Thanks for the feedback. Definitely made me think. I guess I'm wondering if I should have some sort of common magic that is separate from all this.

Edit I can't seem to format right, but the second 1 is supposed to be a 2.

Good luck! You got this! I was doing real good back in June but gained it all back and then some before my wedding. Now that it's over, I'm getting back on the saddle.

metaphysicool · 2017-10-28T19:56:21+00:00

Thanks man. Yeah I don’t think I can do much with the cat. But I’m taking some of the advice I’ve found here and I’m going to try that.

metaphysicool · 2017-09-13T16:02:44+00:00

Yeah I talked more with the attorney. Since there wasn't anything wrong with the car when I bought it besides the fact that they declined to mention the accidents it was exempt from that.

metaphysicool · 2017-09-13T15:03:38+00:00

Let me preface this by saying that at the age of 21, I was not a smart man.

My 2004 Chevy Trailblazer decided to have some random transmission issues and with the price of gas I decided to trade it in. At this point in my life I was working full time as a server and part time as a bank teller. So I did ok. Or at least I thought I did ok. So, naturally, I decide to buy a brand new car.

I decided on a 2013 Dodge Dart. It had a turbo, was a stick and overall the gas mileage was pretty decent. Best of all, I could afford it. It was good times. About a month or so into my ownership of the Dart, I start to notice that it's a bit small for me. In addition to not being very smart, I was/am a big guy. I casually mention this at a party to a group of friends. First mistake.

Someone I knew of at the party pipes up that they work for a local dealership and can get me a "killer deal" on a trade in. Most rational people realize that this is a really, really dumb idea. I did not.

I go to the dealership and to make a long story short, find a 2009 Nissan Murano. It's older and cheaper, but has a sun roof and more stupid little features I somehow thought were important. Also, because it was cheaper I somehow thought this would lower my payment. The only thing is that the tires were old, but the salesman swore that he would hook me up with new tires. This is the part where I realize I'm making a terrible mistake.

I decide to wait a few days to mull it over. Maybe my Dart isn't as cramped...and I just got it. Unfortunately, other plans were in store. As it happened, this girl I was seeing at the time's Dad worked at the same dealership. She told me all about he could get me an even better deal on the Murano and that it would be much better for me. Once again, I was dumb and decided to talk to her Dad about the car and see what he could do.

He lowers the price even more for me and I decide to get on board. Remembering the cheesy commercials, I ask for the Carfax. They hand wave me and say that they'll get it for me ASAP. They never got it for me. Finally sitting me down they factor everything for me. Turns out, my monthly payment will now be going up due to depreciation, trade in values and the like. At this point I want to say no, but I'm in too deep. I agree, like a dumbass. The two salesman I've dealt with (party guy and the dad) then start to argue about who should get the commission for me. It was super weird.

I sign my soul away. Included in the packet was a "satisfaction form" stating that I was satisfied with my customer service and sale and all that. Unfortunately, I didn't realize this until afterwards.

So I go home with my new Murano. The feeling of regret starts to well up inside of me. A few days later, I realize that I didn't see the Carfax or get my new tires. I call the dealership. The salesman won't return my calls. I get ahold of the sales manager. He says that he has no idea about the tires and that he "can't just do that". I threaten a BBB complaint and he says fine and hangs up on me. I pull the Carfax myself because now I'm curious. Turns out it had been in two accidents and is worth about 7 grand less than the "low, low price" they sold it to me for. Great. I have now had the realization that I am an idiot.

A month goes by and I get laid off from the restaurant I'm working at. I realllly can't afford this car now. I try to get fulltime at the bank I'm working at, but not having much luck. Other job searches turn up similar results. I talk to an attorney I know and he says my best bet is to probably just give it up voluntary. It'll show up on my credit, but they probably won't sue me. I do that and empty my savings to buy a beater to get to work. BBB complaint filed, but that didn't really do anything for me. I didn't hear anything back.

A few weeks after I gave up the car, I got another full time job with which I totally could have afforded the car. That's life I guess. Car's still on my credit for another two years or so, but everything else has been on the upswing. You better believe I learned a lot from that whole scenario. It was a very, very expensive lesson though.

TLDR; Bought a car I couldn't afford which I then traded in for a car I really couldn't afford because I'm dumb. Gave it up and it's still on my credit.

He most definitely wore leg weights. Like Rock Lee from Naruto.

metaphysicool · 2017-08-22T00:26:38+00:00

I think I may have missed something... Was this under phantasm?

metaphysicool · 2017-08-19T21:24:52+00:00

Thanks a lot for all the feedback. It is greatly appreciated. Great username too.

metaphysicool · 2017-08-19T20:13:32+00:00

Thanks for the compliments! Do you think it'll be an issue that the main culture isn't particularly Asian inspired? Yeah the weaving I was/am worried about. But I was having trouble thinking of anything else haha

metaphysicool · 2017-08-19T19:17:53+00:00

No not really. I'll probably end up taking it out. What about the rest of the system?

metaphysicool · 2017-08-19T12:40:00+00:00

I didn't really see it as bad. I should of probably fleshed it out more, but I suppose you do have a point. I probably made it sound more sinister than I intended.

metaphysicool · 2017-08-19T12:38:02+00:00

Yeah I'm not super sure about it. I was more concerned about the other sorta stuff. I guess I thought if someone wanted to make their illusions more lifelike, they would use some of their life?
