Hey to all the old bloods from pre-hiatus PW.com

Just wondered if any of you would be able to help me? Im writing a story that has just topped 79,000 words so far and would like some of the old guys and gals who I know from the old days to give me their opinions of extracts before I finish and send it to publishers.

Now it isnt a planar story so I already feel like a fraud for posting here, but this was the only way I could think of to reach anyone who is still active. Anyway, if you want to take a look at a little bit of it then email me (my address should be in my profile, let me know if it isnt!)

Thanks in advance people,
Sean 'Barkin' Taylor

Just to update, ive FINALLY finished Laughing out loud

Its topped out at 103,000 words before I edit and either add or subtract things to it. The only problem I have now is that I dont know whether I need an Epilogue to explain what has happened since the end of the story? Like what happened in the UK and the HRE given that the Governments have dropped to pieces. Im planning a 2nd and 3rd book so im not sure whether to just do Prologues before those books or try and hook readers in with a good epilogue to the first book that makes them want a second.

Anyway, enough fevered rantings. Im open to anyone here who wants to help me out Laughing out loud Although feedback from those who have read my story would probably be the best assistance.

Thanks again guys to everyone who has helped me. If this all works out the way I want it to ill make damn sure people hear your names Sticking out tongue lol

P.S Have I seen Ashy lurking about? Thought I saw someone commenting on a post who had a username similar to the benevolent Tiefer. Might just be me going...ok, gone mad. Peace out x

EDIT: Tee Hee Hee, just realised this thread has had like a hundred views. Makes me feel all warm inside that people are interested Sticking out tongue lol

Danke!

Möglicherweise gibt es eine deutsche Übersetzung zukünftig!

P.S: Apologies if this is a poor attempt, its been YEARS since I did German at school :s

Meant to say "Thanks! Maybe there will be a german translation in the future!"

Thanx

That was pretty good, really Smiling

Only the word "zukünftig" is used rarely in normal language, and it's not for the end of the sentence; it should be "Möglicherweise gibt es zukünftig eine..."

Anyway... personally, I prefer the original language. I've made the experience that translations into German often suck or at the very least it's simply impossible to translate some things really good... so, if I find the time and money, I'll simply get your original book Smiling

Have fun,

Heiner

Keen eyes, basher - keen eyes - even tarmy, I'd say! Eye-wink Yea, the ol' tiefer is still lurking about but not too often. First, the Lady mazed me and now that I've given her the laugh, I've hit the blinds with the Hardheads! Those sodding softheads have blocked most of the portals the ol' tiefer uses to access the Cage, so I have to run tha ring to get it Sigil!

LOL! Greetings, Sean - very good to hear from you again - congrats on the new book - please keep us posted as to how things go!!! Smiling I'm here off and on now, as Planewalker is blocked at my work, but I try to get on at least once a week or so (as time allows, with church, the fam, and all that...).

I've got a DMling whose took to hanging around here, however - if you need me, just get ahold of him and he can track me down. Goes by the name Benyamin. Or, you can just drop by my new website (see sig).

Twig to ya later, bashers! Smiling

Yeah, yeah..Couldn't let the Monkey have all the fun. Sticking out tongue

Actually, I stumbled across this site while I was looking around for gaming info. Sorta funny to walk up to your DM as a clueless prime and say, "Look at the cool site I found."--only to have him go, "Yeah, I created it." :shock: Laughing out loud

Still sort of a clueless (definitely not up to the shins of you bloods), but I'm glad to have found such a cool group of cutters.

Anywho, cya around Sigil!

Ashy! The boss is back...albeit avoiding the Ladys gaze as much as possible. Still, I know it makes a lot of people feel better just knowing you are around. Sure as hells makes me feel better.

Thanks for the support by the way! Thanks to everyone for the support! Who knows, when work stops kicking the *vile language deleted* out of my social life, I might actually get the time to send it to a professional publisher. Already done a book signing at one of my local book stores :s So at least my name is known! Kinda.

Hugz to all and a happy new year!
