I’m a fantasy writer, video game player, nerd who thinks way too much about fiction and good stories

Re-reading a manuscript is somehow the most laborious thing I’ve ever had to do. I’ve finished this *2* years ago and editing my novel is just super exhausting 🙃

As far as novels go, I really think KingKiller Chronicles has some of the most fascinating mysteries and world in written contemporary fiction.

His mistakes and guilt over the past prevents him from being the best he can be in the present. Vysandra, on the other hand, is forced to make a terrible choice in war.

12.12.2024 21:14 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0This is a super interesting question! For Zei, it would have to be the first step to embracing the future is letting go of the past. I think for Vysandra, it would be that the expectations of others are not her burden to hold.
