Hey folks. It's Woof again and today is the start of another weekly revival. You can still find the original on my other page, Woofajuana. I have made a few changes that become more apparent as it goes forward. Instead of forcing the characters to do the things I want them to do, I let them do the things they would do based on their personalities, and that's led me down a really fun, new path.
There were some issues yesterday with my blog. It was giving me all kinds of trouble! So, in case you missed the announcement, I will not be posting to "The Dragon Tamers" next week due to wanting my new beta reader to catch up and cross over to "alpha reader." Instead, on the weeks I don't post new chapters, I will repost the chapters that have been updated with his help. Man's a Psycho, but that's what it takes to be awesome! You can play games with my hubby, but you're my bestie now! Mwahahaha! I pay in puppy pictures!
I hope you all enjoy. And yes, I use the same elven words as in "The Dragon Tamers" so if you don't know the words used, you can find their meaning in the Appendix if you can't figure them out from context. If you don't like made up words, I don't really care. I will be making up more of them. Telling me you don't like made up words is like when my mother told me she hated snakes: I went out and got 5 of them! (years ago, but still.)
In case anyone missed it, Roan and Cylthan have a song all to themselves. "Ashes" by Stellar. Sums them up perfectly.
Hmm, the blogs seem to be having an issue? Anyone else?
Well, for me, it cuts off the end of my previous blog no matter how I tried to edit it, it says there is an error saving any edits, soooo, I will finish my announcement here, and hope it does not cut off as well.
So, since I have this awesome new friend reading my story, I am dropping this week's chapter as promised, and then... sorry folks, but I will be skipping every other week until he is able to catch up and go from being a "beta" to an "alpha" reader. During those weeks I skip, I will post the revised chapters. I hope you will like the differences, because I sure do!
Now, I am going back to bed to try to feel better, and I will see you all tomorrow for "The Rat and the Dragon" drop.
Hi guys! It's Woofajuana!
So, here we are. Another Friday. "The Dragon Tamers" has been moved to this pen name, and you will begin seeing other stories posted up as I get to them. As I said before, I will put my sci-fi/fantasy stuff here, and Woof will stay for all things involving fur, fuzz, and fluff. If it barks, it'll be there. If it's got pointy ears, it'll be here. ^.^
Now, for my personal shout out. Friends love telling you that they'll read your stories. It's said with love and support and every intention to do so... but life is as life does. After months of waiting and hearing nothing, that is par for the course. Love you guys. You'll read it when it's done at this rate, and that's fine.
Then, to my joy, I picked up someone who... actually reads. And not just reads my story, but reads a lot. His suggestions have shot me forward so hard, I've got a headache... though that's probably dehydration from being sick this week. T.T (I swear, I'm not having an affair with the toilet! It only looks like we're making out!) His points have been valid, his suggestions outstanding, and he is everything I could have asked for in a beta reader. It is an honor and a privilege to have this Psycho go through my writings.
