Oh Good! Phew... That takes a load off my mind. I do have books, over 30 of them. They're just under a different name and with the publishing house, or rather ePublishing house. I used to have four publishers: eXtasy Books, Loose-Id LLC, Mojo Castle Books, Kensington Pub. -- Sadly, two of them...

Gods, I love your posts!

This is Good Shit! -- Imma gonna use it! Thanks for posting it!

ROFLMAO! -- I see nothing wrong with being a bit of a troll, seeing as Yes, everyone else is doing it too. I happen to be a tree-hugging, hippy-type, dance-naked-in-the moonlight-no-matter-how-silly-it-looks, Wiccan. In case my previous post didn't give that away. I adore the way you think. --...

Okay, now you're just bragging. *snort* -- I only have a few years in the military, but I am a huge fan of history myself. Though, not so much military history. This is probably why writing large battles are so much work for me. Agreed!!! I definitely agree. There hasn't an invention created...

I agree. There is a huge difference. -- Battles with Magic tend to be written like grudge matches with fireworks tossed in for flavor. Very close 3rd person POV, lots of minute observations of the opponent's subtle body language, plus a ton of stream-of-conscious, internal narration featuring...

Hmm... I'll have to look in on that, but I was pretty sure D&D was the one who changed the orcs from 'dark skin tones' to green because of certain laws being passed on racial sensitivity in California where Wizards of the Coast based their company. I could be wrong though.

Warhammer picked up the green orcs from D&D. -- Warcraft came out in 1984. -- Warhammer came out in 1983. -- Dungeons & Dragons first came out in 1974.

Hmm... Haven't read either of those. And this isn't even my longest tutorial! LOL!

Glad I could help!

Thanks! It's a tutorial. It's supposed to have facts and instructions on how to use those facts. There just happened to be a Lot of facts. And all that was just a Summery I wrote off the top of my head. I did some date checking, and name checking but that was pretty much it. Besides, those...

LOL! It was a two-parter.

Truthfully, no, one does not need to know The Entire History of Magic to write a story with magic in it. (Though I do, but I'm a research fanatic.) However, having some knowledge on where a magic system came from, or was built from, definitely shows in the writing. Especially to those of us that...

I agree 100%. The thing is, all too many new writers want to put comic book/manga/anime scenes in their stories -- and that takes a Lot of work. A lot more work than they probably expect.

It was a two-parter.

----- Original Message ----- I like 10 shadows from JuJutsu Kaisen (JJK). The essence of the ability in a nutshell is the ability to [summon spiritual beasts]. I want to change the summons, but leave the main point. Authors who made abilities similar to this one, what problems will I face in...

Yes, it's a LOT, and that was just a bare summary of how much Magik exists in the world. Rabbit holes everywhere! Looking anything up will take hours of your time, if not days.

It is. Keep reading. -- I was limited on how many images I was allowed.

LOL! Yes, this will likely start a riot of some sort.
