I really love Brandon Sanderson, and his writing has definitely become more polished and subtle. (For anyone wondering, no, this char is not named after someone in Mistborn)
For military fiction, the Vorkosigan Saga by Lois McMaster…
I have one chapter left for the book I began writing ages and ages ago and that I've been saying is nearly done for months. Hopefully it won't take as long for this last chapter to be done. (Ha)
I think my favourite theory is that changelings are secretly the shards of Eyos and the artifact lets them unlock this somehow or something. I know various people with changeling cameos rp it different ways.
So I'm done traveling, but apparently that means it's time for relatives to come visit? Yay getting a phone call "Hi, we're showing up in three days! How are you?"

A note, the in game help files accessed with HELP LUCIDIAN and HELP TRILL provide the accurate information (that lucidians and trill who gain the harmonics specialization become prismatic or cloud respectively.) However the line…
Apparently I'm leaving this afternoon for this weekend long work thing as a last minute replacement for one of my coworkers. No idea how around I'll be. I was also traveling last weekend, and will be next weekend as well. I was really looking forwar…
I'm honestly a little baffled reading this. Ileein posted that the revolt was a thing of beauty. So far he's the only one to actually post about the revolt unprompted by this subsequent discussion. Elayde, Irillia, Zyphora and I all showed some for…

I tend to be a bit of a grump about everyone wearing stoles/being shrouded constantly, because I was one of the clueless novices that got really freaked out by invisible people talking to me/weird masked people I cou…
Clearly we need to record the director coming on stage before every performance and going "Before we begin our feature presentation, please turn off all curios, stop holding your breath, and silence all beep beeps as these are disruptive to your fel…
What spices do you have to work with? Do you have rice?
My typical lentil strategy is saute some onions, garlic, turmeric, cumin, and whatever other spices appeal (plus occasional leafy greens) while cooking a ton of lentils in a pot with…
I really like the Logician, actually, since writing something for that was definitely a lot less daunting than writing something entirely on my own. Of course, it's now been a really long time since I embarked on that three article series, and I sti…
@Lillie Allyrianne is entirely astonished by the fact that Lillie is now a cityfolk, and a magnagoran at that. She's rather curious to know what has happened,…
I'm a little confused as to why there's an either/or mentality that seems to be cropping up. (Or maybe I'm totally misunderstanding here). Plus we keep seeming to get tangled up in semantics between real life definitions and Lusternian ones. Maybe?<…
I think most people view gr1 and sometimes gr2 as "novicehood."
There may be a great many novices who advance out of freshman novicehood without a good grasp of mechanics. But I would be surprised if there are really so many for whom 10-2…
I haven't been around much the past couple of weeks for a variety of reasons (including getting engaged, being obnoxiously sick, and due to the previous being super behind in research at work) Hopefully this coming week I'll have more time. Maybe.
I have to say I am now completely baffled as to when novices get access to what channel, and where the best place to speak to them will be. (I do appreciate that guilds are now notified when novices join, however I received the notification before t…
It's different because as a new player to a game, it's significantly more daunting to be faced with a ton of of people being dismissive/agressive towards you in character for something not necessarily your fault than it is to take a longer time to k…
