Daeus Lamb

Mortristan was startled by his father’s death.

He is left with only two things: the governorship of Elysigard and a challenge from his father… find something worth living for. But it isn’t as easy as it sounds. Elysigard rests securely in the iron grip of the God of Manna— an unseen god who demands great sacrifice in return for food and p…[Read more]

How long should it be? And should I email it or post it here?

@daeus-lamb

I thought everyone would be all over this to. :0

Well, I thought this topic would be flooded in thirty minutes. o_O

*coughs* If I can be of service, I shall do my utmost. How large of an excerpt are you looking for? @daeus-lamb

@daeus-lamb Oops, I got your tag wrong earlier

This is the end of the week. Do I tell you my word count now, @daeus-lamb?

No worries, that was me for awhile. I still go back there for all of my old favorite authors like Garth Nix and Shannon Hale, but I have ran out of Garth Nix books to read: send help. 😛 Basically anything by those two authors is really good – I particularly like Across the Wall by Garth Nix and the Books of Bayern series for Shannon Hale. The…[Read more]

Oh, cool! I’d love to have mine in paperback. And I have looked into some editors and graphic designers to get a feel for it when the time comes. But I still haven’t decided on anything. I am a very indecisive person.

@daeus-lamb

I have come in contact with some pretty lame books that are traditionally published. Sometimes I’m not…[Read more]

Hey, so I subscribed to all the subcategories in New Wessex but for some reason I am not getting e-mail notifications when new topics are created. 🤷‍♀️

It’s not a huge deal, I can just check the forum regularly so I don’t miss stuff…but I thought I would bring it to your attention anyway.

@eden-anderson yes, I am! 😀 *hugs you*

@daeus-lamb what form? Where are these rules?

@daeus-lamb, it is.

This is where we post how many words we have written, right? I know last word war we had some document of some sort for that.

Anyways, I’ve gotten 4,205 words so far this week.

@daeus-lamb From what I remember of the Silmarillion, the elves represented the idea of immortality? And death is seen as a gift to humans. I don’t think that’s quite what you were talking about, but that’s what struck me as interesting from the book.

For those of us who invent our own worlds, we have a great opportunity to point to certain truths…

@eden-anderson, Yeah, I think I need to do some outlining before I start writing again.

@daeus-lamb, Are we allowed to count outlining words?

@daeus-lamb

Neat! I got it.

@daeus-lamb

Hooray!! It’s been a while! Unfortunately, I probably won’t get tons written since I’m mostly editing, but I’ll try. Word wars really motivate me. 🙂

@Daeus-lamb all subscribed!

@daeus-lamb

Okay, awesome. I am really excited about this war…I hope to get a lot done in my WIP and this war will help incentivize me to write.

I hope everybody else from our guild will help pitch in…HOORAY FOR NEW WESSEX!!

@r-m-archer @cassandraia

Are y’all gonna help with this one?
