    Turn into a Dragon?

    Dragon Transformation How strange ... I started writing one of those just recently. The first 8 chapters are available on Magic Spells look for Elory's Joy and/or the big golden coin with the dragon image on it. The first full transformation occurs in Chapter 5, rebirth.

    Writing.com

    I quite enjoy http://www.authorsden.com It's very clever with a lot of features. Over the years I've subscribed to many things but this is one I keep coming back to. Sort of using it for an online library of poems and stuff. They've got an integrated bookstore now for contributors but...

    Invented Words

    Oh I like that! Ok ... hmmm ... right, got it. Sensay. To sensay - the act of touching someone with the intent of stimulating their senses, to communicate with touch. Variations: to be sensayed, the art of sensay. Like it? :) SFxxxx

    Invented Words

    Ooh yeah, and interesting you should mention that. I'm not even sure if in linguistics or general semantics there's much written about this - I call that "calling a function". To introduce a new word, first something like that " a flying-by-the-seat-of-his-gray-flannel-trousers maneuver." is...

    Invented Words

    LOL! When I read that first time, I was sure it said, I'd say you can INVENT WORLDS. New worlds, new words. Has to be, hasn't it? :) SFxxx

    Any Reality Dysfunction Fans?

    Hahaha ... that IS good! But I have to say this morning I know which would be of more interest! And ... ahm, what exactly is a dysfunctional novel? wonders SFxxx :cool:

    Invented Words

    I think we should invent words, because a dictionary is only a collection of words in use by human beings. There's all sorts of kinds of non-dictionary words. And you can argue the "right to make them" because the structure that permits new words to be made is inherent in the English language...

    Question about non-fiction writing

    I would suggest to get written permission from the people in question just in case of trouble later for you to use the stories, but unless the story or case story or history is significant and makes up a huge amount of the text or content, there are no payments involved. Depending on the...

    Hello from the UK!

    Thanks guys for your welcome! The synchronicity. Well I got this strange idea the other day to put out strange items in strange places for "the resident wildlife". Don't know where it came from. It just arrived from nowhere so I placed a Hulk toy, a glazed bonsai pot and a wooden windchime...

    Books about depression

    Can't go by and not post on this. I highly recommend checking out modern energy psychology to treat emotional disturbances of all sorts. Not necessarily to treat an entire clinical depression (that would require a qualified professional) but for every day ADDITIONAL stressors, and for...

    Books On How the Brain Works

    I don't think that one can understand the human brain without taking the workings of the mind into consideration. Our ability to think of things that are not present in the environment, and thus for example to instantly release massive amounts of adrenaline which flood the system (and that's...

    Beyond Harry Potter?

    What are good follow on titles for young folk who got into reading books via Harry Potter and now want to read something else? Particularly for boys (I have two) and my knowledge of such things for the young uns stops somewhere around 1976 :cool: and on top, I was a girl! LOL What has...

    Author and New Member

    Hi Richard, that is a really FANTASTIC website you have there, superb. I'm going to recommend it to other authors as an example, it's that good, and I'm not that easily impressed. Excellent design, very nicely done. One thing - make your hyperlink live in your signature to make it easier...
