    I loved the Darksword series! And the rpg rules included!

    With that face and attitude, he couldn't help it!

    Very un-British!

    English is really weird

    There is just one rule in the English language - **There Are No Rules**

    If you were a criminal....

    For strangers, I guess. A few of our family holiday meals we probably had more!

    Emotional development in long-lived fantasy races

    Sorry, but I totally disagree with this statement. And if I ever read a book that uses this principle, I'll invite everyone to my first-ever book burning! Hogwash. If anything, the serious fantasy writer has to take more care not to violate the 'natural rules' of his world!

    If you were a criminal....

    Seriously though, I'd just assume it was a bluff and do nothing out of the ordinary. (Of course, that wouldn't do anything for the story!)

    Doesn't everyone? *slips hand in pocket so no one sees the shape of a vial within*

    Emotional development in long-lived fantasy races

    I really loathe these kind of answers. Why do you single out Fantasy this way? Do you believe we make one elf's pregnancy two years, the next 10 months? Whichever our silly minds decide in he moment? (In my fantasy world, all elves have a 10 month pregnancy.) And why just 'Fantasy'? You...

    Can Chapter One Be a Flash Forward?

    I'm just the opposite I have rather enjoyed this type of storytelling, but am rather a hater of 'prophecy' stories. One of the things I liked best about Star Wars was that Luke rejected the 'prophecy', and proved his father still had some good in him!

    Emotional development in long-lived fantasy races

    Very much agreed! Emotional development is, majorly, a factor of environment in humans, and would likely be so in alien races. If elves live thousands of years, but it's in a time of serious poverty, war, etc., they're likely to mature very quickly. I think this is more culture-oriented, than...

    Swearing in Fiction

    I neither go out of my way to avoid cuss words, nor to add them in. I'd say there is a small amount of cussing in my writings. Perhaps, unconsciously, that reflects my own usage.

    The Horror Series

    This is a ripoff!! I did a search on YouTube for the Night Gallery show Green Fingers... this is what came up. Disturbing, but far less story than Rod Serling's episode! Hands down, the Night Gallery version is superior.
