Hello all!
So, this is basically a place for me to rant about all the crazy, semi-lucid stuff I put down on paper, yes? :-)
Well, the two things I'm working the hardest on these days are Gypsie Eyes (a fantasty novel, I think I've posted up to chapter 11) and In Thrall (a sort of semi-scifi story, not sure how long it'll be). As most of you know, my three main characters in Gypsie Eyes (GE) are Karenna, Avarn, and *sigh* Tannar. It's not exactly your standard love triangle, people.
My protagonist in In Thrall (nifty title, eh?) is Danteel. Ah, Danteel. Poor Danteel. He's a Nagai (a humanoid race with white skin and solid black eyes, very thin) and, as the title suggests, the story is mostly about his enslavement by a man named Moncreif. *growls* I hate Moncreif.
As of right now, I have about 23 chapters (nearly 120 pages) in Gypsie Eyes, and only about 20 (pages) in In Thrall. Anyone with any questions about my work, just let me know!

Fantasy Fiction and Science Fiction respectively in the order that gyr mentioned.

You are a great writer - churn out a story and get something published. I really believe you ahve the potential and I will be buying the book if it makes it to the UK.

Ooh... I remember running into Karenna and Tannar in the character answer game. :D I'm definitely going to check out your stories.

Yay Danteel! :) I'm a sucker for the Born of the Stars characters. I'm glad you're finally writing a story about him, even if it is all your bad moods strung together! ;) I've read part of In Thrall, and liking it even better than the first time you read it to me!

Incidentally, is BotS still on the radar screen? Anywhere...?

Hello, everyone!
Wow, I'm amazed at how many responses I've gotten in so short a time. :oops: *muses* Maybe people really do like me.... ;)

Gry, you're a brilliant writer! And also a lover of birds! I'll get onto critiquing In Thrall, so far it had kept me reading without stopping.

Here I am, waiting ever so paitently for more In Thrall. I have missed important deadlines so that I could stay up and read In Thrall. I have procrastinated on matters of great improtance so that I could have the opportunity to crit In Thrall (See Chair, Fools' Duel, french homework, etc).

The least you could do is give me more In Thrall to read and sacrifice my work to. ;) XD

'Lo Gyr.

...I have yet to continue In Thrall's critique; but know that it's worth my time and will eventually get it. ^_~

Are Tannar and Danteel's tales the only two you've got at the moment, as moving projects? ^_^

Hey everyone! Sorry I haven't been around recently--schoolwork has forced me into a YWS sabatical that I hope to end soon. Imp: yes, GE and InTh are the only two I'm actively working on at this point, though one or two are in the wings. I hope to be putting up more GE soon, but InThrall may be awhile (you see, I have to write the next scene. arg!). See you guys soon!

Hello, hello!

Just an update here, people, for anyone who's enjoying In Thrall (*small guilt trip for not posting on it in ages*), it began as almost an apendix to another story I've been working on, called Born of the Stars. Recently, I have begun to rewrite this story (trust me, it needed it) and I would really appreciate any help I could get on it.

Here's the link, thanks in advance!: viewtopic.php?t=13968&highlight=

:cry:
Where are all my faithful fans? Okay, okay, I know this sounds terribly conceited of me, but I've posted new stuff on all three of my stories (Gypsie Eyes, In Thrall, and BotS Rewrite) and have hardly gotten any responses!!! Bird needs help! :( *mutters* I finally start getting into the writing swing again......
