Homework is shit. So I've been working on my latest novel! Nothing like testing out the market before the release, yeah? The book's called Kyra's Promise and the Battle of Honour..

Here's a sample!

The sounds of battle raged on outside, hexes and curses exploding against each other like fireworks, and the occasional clang of swords as someone was ( Read more... )

Have you ever considered therapy? So, you're still not over the breast comments I made earlier, I take it.

No, she isn't. I wouldn't comment at all unless you want your eye gouged with a manicured fingernail.

I've already been quartered with a sword. Not enough, I take it.

with_bite April 5 2008, 08:19:55 UTC

Apparently not. And if you were to have your eye gouged after that, you'd be in no position to feel anything.

"Petals"?

I mean, I know what they are, I'm just--why--

It will certainly keep them guessing.

playingcupid April 7 2008, 00:57:07 UTC

By 'them' do you mean the population at large? And there's no guessing involved, she got knock up.

ignoble_savage April 7 2008, 01:05:01 UTC

I think so, yes. I mean, it seems like it's got a lot of twists and things in it. Everybody will be surprised, if things happen so quickly in the rest of the story.

playingcupid April 7 2008, 01:05:56 UTC

Yeah it does! Who wants to read a boring novel where nothing happens?

Wow. I would have never seen that coming!

playingcupid April 7 2008, 00:58:09 UTC

Cool! Well, I didn't include the earlier chapter where she went for a roll in the hay with him and forgot her contraceptive charms, but it's still cool.

smithami April 7 2008, 03:18:03 UTC

Yeah. I suppose it would be a lot more predicable after that.

I demand you change Sir Nicholai's name or I will punch you again.

playingcupid April 7 2008, 00:58:27 UTC

Why? It's only a fucking name.

buttonholed April 7 2008, 03:15:17 UTC

Sure.

jackedoff April 6 2008, 19:13:53 UTC

If Nathan is Sir Nathaniel and Nicholas is Sir Nicholai, I want to be Tertius! And who is Paolo? James?

playingcupid April 7 2008, 00:59:24 UTC

They are not based on real people!!!!!

Do you seriously want to be a stable boy who knocks up some chick? Who would be Kyra?

jackedoff April 7 2008, 03:19:29 UTC

Are you sure?

I don't see why NOT! Edward seems like he would be a good Kyra! Or you!

rathereffable April 7 2008, 04:04:21 UTC

If I had a warm bosom of my own, I'd be playing with it already.
