@w-o-holmes yeah, eggnog is really good.  That’s funny your family has specific ice cream spoons.  Our spoons are just large serving spoons and small eating spoons.  Plus a few long-handled spoons, but we don’t use those much.

I usually don’t do Irish accents.  I guess I’ve never really tried to.  Usually I do British accents.  I get it from watching Doctor Who.  And I definitely will read the Sherlock books before watching the movies.  I’ll also check out ACGS.

Your idea with the ship and different nationalities sounds great!  I don’t know if I’d be able to do it for Warriors Unite (none of the Races like each other), but I could definitely do it for another story.  And I would have you write the big epic poem (if you want to) because you’re really good at poetry and I’m not.

I definitely will separate Morgith into countries, once I figure out where they are.  And maybe I’ll split the land mass and have islands sort of in-between-ish or something like that.  Thanks for the tips!

With Morgith, I know how many different town and such are for each Race, which is nice.  I don’t have names for all of them yet, but I do for most of them.  I’m glad you like my names!  For the Dead Labyrinth, I got a lot of inspiration from Tolkien’s Dead Men of Dunharrow.  In Morgith, the Ghost Riders live in the Dead Labyrinth, which used to be a City of Men called da Nóte.  And Shathore is the Elven fortress (now destroyed) that my main character, Siventhia, came from.

Talking about fantasy things, especially history and characters, is always awesome.  I’m glad I met you to talk about it with!  Even though I have other friends who write, we really don’t talk about our stories much.  Mainly just the characters, which is good but still, it’s great to talk about the other stuff as well.  Sometimes the most random things will give me a spark of an idea.  I have had them happen while I was doing school as well, though, but not always during history.

I don’t have a specific book for notes and stuff.  Mostly my notes end up on random pieces of paper and then, when I can/remember, I transfer the notes to my computer.  I do have notebooks for story stuff, but I never remember to take them with me.  It doesn’t help that they’re standard-size notebooks, rather than something that fits in my pocket.  I probably should carry one around, though.  I like the term instinctionary.

I love your quote even more now!  That’s fantastic!  I really need to develop my language.  Thing is, I know it’s for Warriors Unite, but I have no idea which Race I want it to be for.  Maybe the Elves since my protagonist is an Elf?  Or I should have it be the language of the Dead Labyrinth/Ghost Riders.  They are VERY IMPORTANT characters in the story.  Especially Ashstar, their king.  And his son, but if I expand on his son there will be many spoilers.  So maybe don’t ask about him just yet.

If I could enter Morgith . . . I suppose what I’d do depends on where in the world and when in the story I would be.  If I got there more towards the beginning of my book, I’d either have to go to the Men because we’re the same Race, or I’d find Siventhia and see if I could help her in her quest.  If I arrived after my book took place, I honestly don’t know what I’d do.  And before my book takes place, I really don’t have a ton of history written yet.  What about you? What would you do if you could go to Anadyre?
