Are You Writing Serious Fantasy?

[Thinhyandoiel]

Lila, looking for Paladin names? When you said Locke, I immediately thought "thief" (oops, sorry, treasure hunter [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]) In one of my RPG games (FFII) There was a Paladin, his name was Cyrus, I think. I might have to go back and check. Anyways, I agree with you. Names must be absolutely perfect. It's probably why I'm always looking at the names I have and musing over them for so long.

Do you wait for the Muse to strike? Do you have to? How often does She strike? and why the heck is she absent so much?

Not really. Sometimes. Often (depends) and because she probably wants me to finish writing what she told me to the last time she visited. ^.^ Actually, when I have writer's block, it's as if my mind won't let her in. I get inklings of ideas, just little ones, but then they're gone way too fast before I can muse over them. Meh.
