| That's true. Just. .here's a way to say it. (sort of) When I'm in a good book. I HATE to be interupted. That's how much of a reader I am. Especialy with the book im in now, but that's not the subject. When a side note comes along I'll read it. Although, when it's like three pages long. I'm kind of like 'when will this get over and I can get ack to the story?' It's alright the first couple of times but after that it gets a little old.
Do you get what I'm saying or am I just vlabing without a purpose?

| Dare I share a writing secret? Aww...what the heck: Swordsman, you're right. 90% of the time, fictional people, places & events are based on REAL people, places & events.

| Zelda, would you believe I started this a couple years ago with a friend (actually, hubby's best friend...also a writer)? I will admit, it was after we got home from a long, hot day at the Renaissance Festival...our brains were probably fried.
But hey, it's fun! I really need to work on it again, so that you guys could get ahold of a copy.

| Yeah, I know that much. I'm just saying that because Floren and Guilder are supposed to be completely made-up fairy tale places. You don't go around trying to find Snow White's kingdom, do you?
And yeah, I gotcha wannabe. I just disagree! But that's fine either way, TPB still rocks.

| Excuse the musing, but she pops out every once in a while.
Maybe deep down, Lady Moon doesn't want to be rescued. She might want to take care of herself, or wait and see where the adventure takes her.
Looking back over the life of the character, since when has she really "settled" for anything, or acted as the D.I.D.? She ran away from a marriage...& ended up a knight. She's an adventurer. And a fighter. Not your typical princess. Maybe in all of this there is a deeper story to tell than "always being kidnapped." It's a story that I intend to shed light upon when I bring Lady Moon to life in a novel.

| I was thinking of a series...but, of course, I really only own the character of Lady Moon, so that's who I want to start with. I'm sure I'll be asking permission (release forms, etc) to use other characters down the line.

Yay! A book about Arconia. The story of a kingdom ruled by the noble king Arcon. Arconia is a peaceful kingdom. Loyal subject, friendly people. Our story begins. . . .
Right sorry. That's your job Moon. hehe
So do you want us to come rescue you or not? Either way we're coming. j/k
