So very accurate. Could use a proofreading, though.

And it's like everything that was going to make Pearagon the most epic parody ever. After all, the loser character rides a giant pear into combat. I wonder how many times I'll be able to reference the fact that Paoloni is a no-talent assclown.

Yeah, a typical parody on the 'how to write' books.

Ah, I see where I've been going all wrong. I guess I'll have to scrap my manuscript and start over. This time I'll be sure to follow those directions very carefully. Ms. Karen

I had bought a book "how to Write science fiction and fantasy". After reading, I said myself that if I needed really this book to write, it was better that I stop immediately. Now, I'll prefer to find good tips to be published (and not by paying myself the printer)

Currently live link to article from the first post is here: http://members.ozemail.com.au/~imcfadyen/fantasy.html I know a very good series about writing, which helped me a lot. Unfortunately, it only exist in Slovak (not English), so I'm not sure everyone here could read it. It's called "42 000 míľ atramentu", which would be "42 000 miles of ink" in English. http://www.liter.cz/povidky-fantasy-177870-cist

Quite amusing. Here's how I did it. 1) Main Characters. 2) World. 3) Quests. Base your secondary characters off of the more colorful people you know. It makes them seem real. BTW, Radio Rivendell's Lord Elrond (Anders) appears in my 5th book (Redemption of the Righteous), which will be out as soon as my proof reader is finished. Find a good cover artist and a good proof reader. And expect to give away a lot of books for free to people. J. E. Sandoval Author of the Ki Kalendeen Chronicles

@Hrankta, hey I liked the Pirates of the Decian Sea story. Fun bit of amusement there. (I'm still world-building, so I have yet to release diddly or squat at this point)
