    What's the most epic attack you've ever written in fiction?

    For me it's a toss up between the demonic shadow raptors Falazar summons at the festival of Argren and the corrupting sickly green sorcery of the goblin shaman devouring and rotting a giant cultist from the inside in High Tor. Both are in the second book. Apart from being powerful, they're...

    Recommend me a Scribble Hub novel to read

    I know it's cheeky, but I do recommend my series if you like character-driven, high stakes Epic Fantasy, with quests, military elements and ancient magic. It's a revised and polished story, and the book is complete and updated daily on this site: A Shattered Peace

    Play devil's advocate for tropes you like.

    Tropes are tropes for a reason. Maybe we could even get back to calling them with their real name: archetypes. If you want to only avoid and deconstruct them, good luck! But my approach is to add to the archetypes and flesh them out. Am I scared of writing trope-y stories? Let's see what I...

    Who is the moral compass in your fiction?

    M&M, Masillius and Marta. No special powers, no fighting skills, just a big heart and decades of lived experience. The team would not be able to achieve what they do without them.

    First time Scribbler. Does my Story Have a Chance?

    Thank you, great advice. I am doing that a few days ahead, giving 2 or 3 chapters the once-over and then queueing up one per day Thank you, that's very encouraging to hear. The site seems pretty good at giving visibility to stories, and even if it's a smaller proportion of readers that might be...

    First time Scribbler. Does my Story Have a Chance?

    Sure, we're a rare breed, we gotta stick together :)! I've literally just joined the discords for RR yesterday, I still don't have an account over there, the intention is to have my story at least a third or half uploaded here to gauge the feedback and make some tweaks if needed. Do you have the...

    Which type of antagonist do you prefer: the moral antagonist or the villain antagonist?

    Maybe it's a cop out answer, but the best antagonists for me are the ones that combine both. I want the menace of absolute evil with a seductive ideology and reasons that make sense internally. Someone with charisma and a clear vision that is a threat to the mind and values of the protagonists...

    What's your longest record of experiencing writer's block that made your novels go on hiatus?

    Mine is however long revision and editing take. I just can't both come up with the story and tear and refine it in the same time frame. I write a book, then go back at it and pause my story.

    As an author, how do you feel when you reread your novels?

    There are only two possible reactions to reading my own writing: A) This is the best story, told in the best possible way, look at what I did in this paragraph, so much meaning, information, and I've even done alliterations and shit, I'm a beacon, a Titan amongst men, I shall usher in a new...

    First time Scribbler. Does my Story Have a Chance?

    Hi Folks, Firstly I admit that I know next to nothing about ScribbleHub and I have joined just a few days ago. Fantasy is really popular on this site, but I'm not sure how a more classic Epic Fantasy series fits or how it is received by the audience. From what I can see there are a mix of quite...
