I love when ideas snowball. You just have to learn to be fast enough to keep up sometimes.<br /><br />Medeia: Absolutely. I have kept a vigil lookout for info dumps and hope I have avoided them. That's why I'm spreading out this main series over four novels. Helps spread out the information without getting too bogged up. :)<br /><br />RebeccasSpleen: Thank you. I think they show off my great artistic talent.<br /><br />Alan: the story of the snake? Sounds intriguing... Though. I wouldn't want a snake to asplode on me. That might be gross.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09222233412304660376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2437645392949660696.post-41500626715758333042011-03-18T15:54:49.198-04:002011-03-18T15:54:49.198-04:00The whole concept works for me.

Just as long as I don't confuse the "Faerie" and "Fairies."<br /><br />And yes, as little as I write, whenever I do there's always something else trying to asplode out of there. When I did my short story about the snake I had several friends say stuff like, "you need to make it longer," or, "tell me more about the woman."<br /><br />Well, I wanted to, but it just wasn't the right time. My head WANTED to asplode, but I had to reign it in.<br /><br />Look, see there? I just did it right then. I'm blogging on YOUR comment page.

Or aliens. Or different universes. Or you need a Buddhist. Then reincarnation and super powers and more universes...<br />I really like the ideas though. Nice and complex. Not too hard for me to figure out. Guess I'm just weird like that. ;)<br />-Wolfiewolfie 402https://www.blogger.com/profile/04847919766765012624noreply@blogger.com
