William's Ramblings: Who killed the RPG Star?
http://williamsramblings.blogspot.com/2010/08/who-killed-rpg-star.html
Sunday, August 08, 2010. Who killed the RPG Star? With another GenCon over, I find myself how it has changed over the years - and I've ha quite a few years to follow the changes. In the previous century, finding a warrior, wizard, elf, or orc was easy stuff. Stand in one place for a minute or so, and soon a costumed person would pass by. I think for years elves and wizards dominated. Other video game characters included John Marston (Red Dead), and several Big Daddies and Big Sisters (BioShock). I would ...

William's Ramblings: Writing a Novel: Step 2
http://williamsramblings.blogspot.com/2010/05/writing-novel-step-2.html
Monday, May 03, 2010. Writing a Novel: Step 2. There are many ways to lear. What I'm saying is that the best approach to learning how to write is through reading and writing. The "writing" part I suppose is self-evident, although there are many writers to dislike writing. They either overcome this, or spend much time reading books on writing, looking for that one secret to suddenly make them a writer. Posted by William Jones. What a wonderfully instructive post. I loved that post, it was all so true!

William's Ramblings: Writing a Novel: Step 1
http://williamsramblings.blogspot.com/2010/04/writing-novel-step-1.html
Monday, April 12, 2010. Writing a Novel: Step 1. 1: Write about something you enjoy. This seems obvious, but often writers get frustrated and start writing whatever they think will get published. There is nothing wrong with writing what publishers are publishing, but try to match that with something you enjoy. In the end, if the writer has no passion for the subject, it will come through in the writing. 2: Write about what you know. Posted by William Jones. I find for me that I like to read a few books i...

William's Ramblings: Depths of the Ocean: More High Seas Cthulhu

Friday, August 21, 2009. Depths of the Ocean: More High Seas Cthulhu. It was my intention to post about product placement in television and fiction books - oh, and films, etc. But as other matters press upon me, I'll save that one for later in the week. Right now, I'd like to talk about stories set on the high seas. Which means I get submissions for books printed years ago. What type of stories? Setting: Still an ocean or big body of water. Mostly modern, some historical is welcome. You might also consid...

William's Ramblings: Metaphor: What is it good for?
http://williamsramblings.blogspot.com/2010/03/metaphor-what-is-it-good-for.html
Monday, March 22, 2010. Metaphor: What is it good for? A few lines of Shakespeare will reveal the power of these figures of speech. He was a master of their use - particularly personification. However, it seems modern readers are having more difficulty catching-on to lines such as ".Up from my cabin / My sea-gown scarf'd about me, in the dark." ( Hamlet. Recently in my novel Pallid Light: The Waking Dead. For me the locus of the issue rests with the individual. What defines us? One story is obvious: the ...
