I wonder if my outbound messages aren't sending, or if it's just that I'm refreshing my page like a maniac freaktard. >_>



We're working on it as a collab with the forumite Dwarves in it, Soignee seemed excited about the project. If I weren't too afraid to go within ten clicks of Aimo, I might have asked her to take part, but i'm a pansy. Wow, hope she doesn't frequent here. Anyways, I mostly-finished my part.

I... I write a socially and emotionally stunted (get it stunted for a dwarf amirite) woman incapable of expressing feelings and thoughts and just arm punches people when she's feeling affectionate.


She sounds like Toph from 'Avatar: the Last Airbender'! :D

You
Shadow are awesome! So I am eagerly awaiting the Alistair you are a
douche convo. You are another author I have been a secret fan girl of
for a while. Not to mention you are my hero for my stupidity on
technology. *blushes with shame*


Tanks. ^_^ The technology just comes from when I used to frequent a forum that used UBB code. We didn't have fancy formatting bars back then. *feels old*

What did the poor nug do? :o

I like dwarves, I just haven't finished playing one. (Not the Deep Roads agaaaaaaaaain.) I'm looking forward to eventually finishing Orzammar, however...she's officially supporting her brother and plans to give the Crown to Harrowmont at the last moment just to see the look on Bhelan's face. :devil:

Lol. She just doesn't like nugs, cause that's what she got called after so long as a prostitute. I'm doing another one that's more, "smiley group photo", though, because I'm not really sure I like this one. ^^;

I pretty much supported Bhelen for the sake of the Dusters, even though I straight-to-Bhelen's-face told him I thought he was a sleaze.

Missa: more manly then you.


I think if Cadryn hadn't revoked all rights to his man card by talking about stuff like "feelings" (fsh, what's that?), he'd be threatened by Missa's manliness, but we're well past that stage now.

@Dani: Aw, yeah.  Nug jam time in 3.. 2...

Oh fanfiction. I will likely never post any of my Dragon age fanfiction because Dear Jesus I'm 40,000 words in and not even out of Ostagar. Yay for breaking my back in details but feeling so ashamed I can't progress forward :D



Nug jam...Mmmmm....

I've got a fanfic like that... :) I chopped it up into little pieces and made the occasional one-shot out of it. :D

That's how Chains started, but as incoherent snatches all over the place in timeline.  One of my favorite scenes will never see the light of day because it just doesn't fit into the game... I only decided to post what I have because of the Team Zev folks.  They're to blame for much.

Ha! I'm working on Chapter 9, and I'm about four-five months out from Ostagar.



Though, granted I started nine years before the Blight, so I kinda cheated ;)



oki, do you want someone to take a look at what you've written? There are info dumps and then there are info dumps. Maybe another pair of eyes could help streamline things?

It took me 7 chapters to get to Lothering. But then, I got through the Brecilian forest in literally 140 words (I just did a wordcount). The biggest thing when writing the gamefic for me was to just focus on what was different from every other mage playthrough for my particular character. I feel like that kept it interesting for me and the readers. I wasn't just repeating game dialogue and detailing things they already knew.

And as for angst: I prefer writing the angry kind. :D Maebh is the master of table-tossing hissy-fits.

Nice to know that the term "info-dump" is the Summon Saga mantra.

I'm getting better! And there's a difference between info-dumps that are introducing new information and info-dumps that are just rehashing things that everybody reading the story already knows.

I'm roughly about the same # of words into my Awakening story with Nathaniel and I've only just been to Amaranthine once (and not met his sister).   I would try not to get too wrapped up in word count.  It'll drive you nuts.

I finished my first DA book. 140,000 words.



I'm starting my second: http://social.biowar...m/project/2703/

I would love it if people could give me critiques and helpful comments.

Oh table flipping and hissy fits! YAY! *flips table*

I don't do word counts. My epic is too epic ( and I don't mean because it is epic as in "good"), I would scare myself. And I am 4 chapters into my noble origin and I just met up with mom and Dairren after killing ROUSs in the damn pantry for Nan. I can't help myself. But at least no one has told me to stop or streamline. So I guess I'm cool. Figure if not one has told me to give it a rest, then I must be somewhat entertaining. Posted Image

Well, I do hope you like them. If only I could figure out what the hell to do with Cousland and Tabris, I could finish the set.

I love your Duncanless Aeducan the best, I must say. Insanity is so fascinating to read. I just got up to the bit in the dark roads where you meet Ruck, and I love the dialogue there.
