Lunarhade Posted June 1, 2018 Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 Hi all, I wanted to introduce myself as that seems to be the decorum. I'm a nerd, gamer, reader, and writer, so precisely the 17th Shard's demographic. I apologize in advance if I come across... let's say clunky. As the Title suggests, I am a true beginner at basically anything resembling this. I've never used the internet to connect with people (one of its proclaimed most popular applications). I find most corners of the internet disagreeable. However, I have been a big fan of the Cosmere for a few years now and I thought if I were to dip my toe into somewhere, it would be here: with people who hopefully share my interests. I hope to share and discuss with fellow fans on here. I'm particularly interested in talking about writing. I often find myself having to explain to people what I'm going for when I write epic fantasy (even more specifically when I tell them about Hard Magic systems), so I'm hoping it'll be a breath of fresh air to have discussions with a shared foundation such as Brandon's work. Anyway, I ramble. Greetings to all, Lunarhade 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ElephantEarwax he/him Posted June 1, 2018 Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 Welcome to the shard. Have a cookie and an upvote. Who is your favorite character? For initiation could you say, "My life to yours, my Breath become yours." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunarhade Posted June 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 Hi ElephantEarwax, I would love to be inducted cult style "My life to yours, my Breath become yours." (I always knew I'd sell my soul for a cookie). As for my favourite character. I don't know if I can say an overall character in all the Cosmere. There is a soft spot in my heart for Breeze so I'll go with that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Forgetful Archivist he/him Posted June 1, 2018 Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 It is a pleasure to have a fellow cookie enthusiast on the shard, it looks like Mr. Earwax beat me to the cookie sale, so uh, Hi welcome to the shard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archer he/him Posted June 1, 2018 Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 I see EE has started being more subtle with his cookies. Welcome to the Shard! You'll fit right in. We have some writing groups on this site that would probably love to talk with you about your writing. What's your favourite book Lunarhade? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunarhade Posted June 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 Archer, that's the hope, My favourite book has to be either Mistborn because it was my first, or Oathbringer because Stormlight keeps getting better with age. Faceless Mist-Wraith, good question. I have read pretty much everything in the Cosmere except I haven't finished White Sand. Brandon's work taught me the kind of writing I want to strive for which means for research purposes I've read as much as I could. I've also read some of his non-Cosmere work, like Reckoners series Also, to all of you, thank you for a warm welcome. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just a Lifetime he/him Posted June 2, 2018 Report Share Posted June 2, 2018 A slightly belated welcome and upvote from me, Lunarhade. I just want to make sure you're aware of Writing Excuses, on the off-chance it's not yet on your radar. It sounds like it might be up your alley. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argent he/him Posted June 3, 2018 Report Share Posted June 3, 2018 Hey, welcome! Hope you like the place, and if you find anything unsavory, feel free to flag down a mod. Those banhammers are just gathering dust these days... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
