    Ahh, that’s alright, mate! I spell that way too. Though the difference, I guess, besides the obvious, is that I actually AM European in origin. Funny thing, huh? I’ve lived in the US my whole life, though.

    Yea, I write poetry a. Lot. I like poetry, what? I’m in the process of gathering pieces in order to collectively publish my first book, albeit an anthology. I’m working on various pieces as of now. Some of which, I really should work on…(in answer to your above question on the question that I previously posed on what kind of poetry do you write): What kind of poetry do you usually like to write? A form or a more open-based? I prefer anything that suits the moment, really. I’m going for the Whitman/Wordsworth touch as of late.

    I must concur with you here on this point; I think it a necessity that poetry be written through way of emotions. Otherwise, why write it? It’ll end up as a bland, dried-out, oyster. That is, unless you are particularly gifted in doing so. You could then write whenever you wanted (not like you can’t, anyway). Lucky you. [I personally doubt there is anyone out there who can do that. {Though, hey! Maybe I shall stand corrected in the near future.}]

    Ah, yes! I’m sorry to say that you probably wouldn’t find the true identity of Uondon of Andim if you looked anywhere besides here. This would be because he is a fictitious character within one of the four worlds in my realms of fantasy. It wouldn’t exactly be proper to call it a side project or hobby for in the works are many novels that I hope to produce. You see, that quote of mine is in a language. It was quoted as best as could be represented with the limited tools then at hand to correctly present the right soundings of that language (now called for further and easier use), Lathraen; this was presented through the sound system of its brother language (as above; a stand-in title), Enorren. (That is: ay-NOR-ren – Also: la-THRAY-n). These two languages corroborate with a third; that being the Edaeic script (ee-DAY-ic) – not in use by those of the worlds apart from the elves of the lands west of the Great Expanse, or Iethric’telauo. (ee-AY-thric-tel-OE-ee [note it begins and ends with the same sounds, {once again, albeit} in different ways]). If you want to learn more of these realms go to this website where I post things on occasion on this blog…sorry. Not yet, I haven’t. I’m getting one up though…in a few months.

    (I love talking like this.)

    Nay, unfortunately I was not. I came on the guild at the beginning of September. Yes! 🙂 Nice meeting you, too!
