C.S. Lewis
“Progress means getting nearer to the place you want to be. And if you have taken a wrong turn, then to go forward does not get you any nearer.
If you are on the wrong road, progress means doing an about-turn and walking back to the right road; and in that case the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive man.”

Love the sea. I really do need to start updating my book shelf. Some of the more recent books I read are missing.

Ivan Stoikov - Allan Bard Hi! Thanks for the add! Nice shelf, books! Will be glad to share some recommendations, tips, etc in the future! Best wishes! Let the wonderful noise of the sea always sounds in your ears! (as my water dragons' hunters would greet - my Tale Of The Rock Pieces).

DL Thank you!


message 3: by Hazel

Hazel West Well, I can't live without writing ;) Historical fantasy is kind of a new favorite genre of mine. I'm working on a steampunk novel at the moment which I guess is more alternate history than fantasy, but still really fun.


message 2: by DL

DL Ditto here! I've wanted to delve into historical fantasy. I actually have a fantasy novel written inspired by a historical event. It won't be published until 2013, but it's one of my favorite stories that I've written. Anyway, I'd love to talk to you about it. You have a lot of work out! Impressive!

Hazel West Thanks for the friend invite! I look forward to exchanging recommendations and stuff with you =)
