I am a guy from Denmark who is dumb enough to think he is great at writing Fantasy Novels in English. I am still waiting for someone to tell me otherwise.
It's a banging prologue
23.09.2025 08:32 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Yes. I am still figuring out what I am going to do about that. For I am like 190k in, probably got 50k to do. Maybe and that will still be a cliffhanger ending.
But hey, first draft, right?
Mine will definitely be shorter than Way of Kings.
22.09.2025 20:03 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 010k action sequences are ok, right?

Thoon. In a couple of months. Still first drafting.
19.09.2025 11:11 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Why hello there! Would an epic Fantasy world in an anachronistic 1930s setting Sprinkled with Noir Raymond Chandler-esque dialogue, classic interpretations of Tolkien fantasy races(kind of) AND the adventure of a Indiana Jones film(not dial) be of interest?
19.09.2025 08:26 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Where can I find more information?
15.09.2025 11:46 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Here's a question for the abyss.
When is a book tainted but AI?
Where's the line? like what If one write the book, read it makes notes feeds it all to an AI and asks to formulate an actionable plan for editing?
Genuinely curious, I can see use cases for AI helping in certain insurances
