Writing Talk about Dark Forces & Heroes

-
The thing about writing imaginative fiction, whether it be any sub- class of science fiction or fantasy, is to create and maintain some very strong and solid templates for world and characters.  Evil must be strong and frightening-something to make your soul churn- not your stomach .  At least not too much.  I have never been one for the gross out factor.  Tubs of  blood is something easy for humans to spill, because they do it all the time.  Do not get precious.  Our species is flawed and barely evolved out of the primordial pits.  You do not even need to read history to verify this, simply watch the news or read the newspaper.  We are very violent-which is why heroes (real heroes) are important.    The conundrum is to create strong heroes that do not go all wimpy or stupid-or turn as evil as the forces they battle.

Her hair is literally shadow that curls around her death pale face of flawless beauty, silver moon eyes that see all, and lips red as blood. Red as blood is fairy tale speak, but it applies to Obsydia. She ...

Hello Familiar's Tale friends! I just want to clear up any confusion about editions on my Gate of Souls novel. Below is the current book cover with my new and current publisher, Sky Warrior Books. This cover is not only for my new Kindle edition, and it's available at wonderful Amazon through this link:   http://www.amazon.com/Gate-Souls-Familiars-Tale-Book-ebook/dp/B012C8H08C/ref=sr_1_1_twi_kin_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1443812935&sr=1-1&keywords=gate+of+souls Now my publisher Sky Warrior books is releasing the print and audio version that will have this cover. Anything with this cover is good, because this is where the current royalties will be coming from. If you want a print edition, be patient, it has been sent to Amazon and other outlets by Sky Warrior. I will announce it when they are available. There are older editions of my book being sold on many sites. They have this cover below, but these do not benefit myself or my previous publish...
