Hi all!
So I write. I write a lot. I've finished a few small things while others are still works in progress. While I do indulge in the writing of fanfiction, I do write original stuff. Here's a rundown of what I'm working on.
Sword and SorceryMy main project. if all goes well, this will be a trilogy. It's the story of ten college students who find themselves accidentally transported to a new world. They become caught in the middle of a conflict that has been going on for hundreds of years. Sword is pitted against sorcery in a struggle for dominance of the the world of Keverynn. Their arrival is the trigger to an ancient prophecy. Will sword or sorcery triumph? Will Keverynn be returned to a peaceful state or will it be forever plunged into darkness?
Book 1 ('Path if the Warrior') has been completed and sits at 100, 532. It still needs some work, but a friend of mine is an editor and she's already agreed to look at it for me when I can afford it.
Book 2 ('Path of the Sorceress') is in progress.
Some of the story is up at
http://ss.keverynn.net but note that not all of it is there.
Angels of the NightThis project is much less developed than the previous one. I haven't been working on it for as long. It's presently undergoing some reworking in the earlier chapters.
Over a thousand years ago, Ardren, the mainland of the world of Melphor, was wracked by a centuries long bloody war referred to in the Histories as the Wars of the Roses, an endless struggle to rid the world of the forces of darkness. For countless centuries, the two countries fought before the country inhabited by the forces of the light called upon its neighbor countries and formed the Soulforge Alliance. Together, they beat back the darkness and reclaimed their lands. The land of the dark things became a forbidden place to go as the evils would corrupt your soul, and all who went there did so upon pain of death.
The year is now 1172, 1177 years after the creation of the Soulforge Alliance. Rumors of creatures long thought destroyed over a thousand years ago are being whispered about in the Alliance, creatures that once served the Dark One, creatures that, if they really did still exist, threatened the stability of the Alliance with their very existence.
The Knights of the Rose, the protectors of the Alliance and the world of Melphor, swore to exterminate them at the end of the war and, if the rumors were true, would rid the world of the evil once again and preserve the peace.

http://aotn.keverynn.netMiscellaneoushttp://fiction.keverynn.net/I keep all of my other original works here.
Poetry - some of this stuff is really old, dating back to junior high
Children of the Tiger - I'd call this a short story, but I'm not really sure how to describe it. Fantasy genre.
Stars of Destiny - This is an attempt to convert a fanfic into an original story. It's kind of corny, but it was fun. It's not really a serious project, just something I did to see if I could
Dragon's Flight - I'm in the process of converting this one over to the world of Keverynn. Eventually, it will be called 'On Dragon's Wings' to avoid any Pern imagery. It's pretty terrible plot wise right now.
Chaos Cycle - this was my NaNoWriMo project a couple years ago. I didn't get very far, but it's completely plotted out and just needs a small bit of tweaking in the fine points and needs to be written out completely. Otherwise I'm happy with this one.
Short Stories - 'Crazy' is one that I'm really proud of, but the other two... 'Torene's Story' will also soon be converted over to the world of Keverynn and is actually pretty important to the 'Sword and Sorcery' story line. Not directly, but it's still fairly important.
Also, feel free to poke around my domain at
