Recommended for a quick urban fantasy departure. I was really excited to read this because of how unique the story was. Usually, the demons and the monsters are just that, things that scare and torment the characters in a story. That’s what drew me to this story because of how the things that go bump in the night are just like us, just trying to live out their lives, the difference being that they’ve got some cool powers. In his off hours, Xero enjoys gaming, hiking, and period recreational fencing, which he does as a member of the Society for Creative Anachronism.

When I read, and a passage was really good, I would note it and then when I had a free moment would dig into why it was good. I started reading more critically and then started writing that way too. It was the insistence, or the need to tell this story that made me forget about the idea of “am I good enough, or not?

Kevin finally pointed out that Miltia’s sacrifice cannot be avoided, and Suou grunts in frustration. Some time later, Kevin stared at the 27-Series Asuras in silence, but could possibly be deeply concerned on how their unleashed rampage would cause to Shion and the others.
The other was a survey of the career and works of Mervyn Peake, author of the Gormenghast novels. Our only outside contribution was a review of the film of Psycho, based on the novel by Robert Bloch.
I guess in the end, my characters and world were so interesting to me, I almost forgot to worry about my own shortcomings. I tried writing books in my teens and then again in my early twenties but nothing felt right.

There is so much detail given to the characters, the setting, the lore that it became one of those books I could just sink into. Mal is a gem of a main character who has an EGO but also this self-deprecating tone makes him so relatable despite all his supernatural hoodoo and I am really glad I already have a copy of Book 2.

Unfortunately she wanted way more time and space then just a 10,000 word short story and over the course of about 10 days I ended up writing a 43,000 rough draft that became my first novel Mimi of the Nowhere.
