What about speculation for upcoming Pierce novels? I've heard she's got ideas for writing a novel or two chronicling Tris' time in Lightsbridge, and even Numair's transformation from Aram Draper to the infamous Black Robed Mage.

Or what about responses to the novels she has written? If anyone is interested in the actual craft of the works, there could be a discussion on how her writing style has evolved over time.


I hate to over-use the word, but I do have a bit of the stupid, over-enthusiastic cheer-leader type in me...so: BRILLIANT!
It really is, however.
Would you mind posting it?
Since it's your idea, I think I'd only ruin it. crying And I couldn't live with that.


Kisses!

Ah! Sorry for not checking back earlier, Zami. Sure, I'd love to post these up, if I think people will join in the discussion.

I've got another idea to put in now, if that's alright. The collection of subforums we have now, I think, work well for the discussions of current novels, but if we were to start an RP in an original setting, I'm not sure where we'd put it. What I'm proposing is a new subforum devoted to roleplay and roleplay discussion. What say you, Fearless Leader?



Fearless Leader, huh?

*Draws herself up to her not overly impressive height and dusts lint of her shoulder.*
smile

Well, I'm preeeeety fearless, excepting cases involving snails, slugs, heights, flying....OK, I think we all get the picture wink

Yes, I agree. We would need a new subforum for an RP in an original setting. But what should it be called? Give me the specs and I'll set it in motion, if you can't do so yourself First (does anyone here like Star Trek, too?).
The subforum should also contain, I think, separate posts detailing the setting: the world (maps, perhaps? I like maps, if any of you haven't noticed smile ), society, etc...

What do you think?

Oh, by the way: I love your avatar's new look!

Kisses!

Glad you're enjoying your new title. wink

As for the title of the new subforum...I'm not certain. Something with 'Adventure' in the title, I think. Like 'Your Own Adventure' or 'Tales of the Bard' or 'TR's Adventures'. Something like that, maybe.

I don't think it would need as many forums as that for separate discussion of the setting. For me, they all kind of flow together, and might only need one or two OOC chat spaces--one for settings and characters (the cement details) and one for discussion about the direction the RP is moving in (the basic plot). More could always be added if we felt it necessary. Oh, and of course, a sticky should be added for rules, FAQs, and the like. Maybe even a guide to making a new RP for those not experienced in that area. And of course, a section for people to put up their new RPs and also to advertise for them.

I've never done this before, so these are inexperienced opinions, but I just thought this might make for a good basic frame of a new section of the Guild.

Oh, and thank you--glad you like it. Just call me the Black God. cool

Well, Blacky, I've said it before and I'll say it again: I like your thinking.

For the title I rather like Tales of the Bard, but it's up to you really, it's your brain child, after all. lol

Give me a holler if you need help.

Kisses!

I will never cease to be flattered by your trust and confidence, Zami. Thank you.

Actually, I think I will need help--I jumped into the area in which new threads are created, and wasn't entirely sure of the navigation. Plus, it seemed that we might need more gold for more threads. Of course, I think I've donated since then. Maybe that merits another look....

I'll flatten you out like a pancake, don't you worry! smile

But seriously...
There's more than enough gold for the subforum, I just checked.
I'll create the subforum, then and limited it to crew only until it's finished. I'll give it some stupid name until you decide what you'd like to call it.
How about it?

Kisses!

That sounds like a fine idea, Zami!

Just to be sure, though--what exactly now am I to be responsible for in this new subforum, aside from the title? (Btw, I think I will go for 'Tales of the Bard')

You may be entirely responsible, if you like. You do what you like with it, build it to your taste. Go ahead and knock yourself out! smile
Give me a holler if you need help with something. I'll rename it, then. At the moment only crew can enter the subforum. It's labeled "under construction" so everyone will know not to post anything yet.

Have fun!

If one of the crew has suggestions or questions they should contact you.

Kisses!

Here's an idea, but I'm not sure if it'll go down well... redface

It seems we've got quite a large age span in our guild now (yey!!!!) and that many of us are studying in school, collage, uni or whatever. I was thinking that maybe we could have a thread in which we could ask for help and give help in areas of study.

How's that sound? redface redface redface
It's really nerdy, I know, but it might be a good idea, I think.

Kisses!

I like that plan! You never know who might be a math genius or have great ideas for papers or even who is just a great editor!

Phew!

With the summer on our necks I though you'd kick me for it! sweatdrop

I think it would be a good way of bringing people who have questions together with the people who can answer them.

I completely agree. And you can always learn new things! The summer questions would be more general/random than during the school year I suppose. Once school starts then we can get into the serious "oh my gosh why doesn't [insert topic here] make sense!" (That was me in AP Physics in high school heh heh).

I'm majoring in physics, so any questions are welcome (though you might be relieved not to have to concern yourself with physics anymore! wink )

I have to take a lab science eventually and it is going to be some sort of physics. I love physics, I'm just not good at applying what I've learned crying . I understand concepts but hand me and application problem and I am clueless haha

Hmmm...a lab? Hmmm, well we'll see what sort of help I am. I'm more theoretical, than experimental. I'm pretty clumsy. sweatdrop sweatdrop

I'll be glad to help!

I'll be looking for help in philosophy myself.

You know, it's funny you should mention that. I've actually spent the last two years of my student career as a tutor in Math and English, with an emphasis on paper-writing. I think this is a great idea, Zami. Go ahead and set it up!
