Making Rimewinter: 3D printing a fantasy dagger
My Swordspeaker Saga series centers around living, sentient weapons. Each book introduces a new weapon with a different personality and different abilities or “gifts.”
When I went to my first convention, I decided it would be neat to bring a replica of the sword from the first book, Truesilver. So I got a 3D printer and hired someone to take the drawing from the cover and make it into a 3D prin

| There may be more profound books that wrestle with the great questions of life, but you'd be hard-pressed to find a more winsome, honest, and thoroughly enjoyable glimpse into life in the late nineteenth century than Tom Sawyer. This is the quintesse ...more | |

“Though thankless you are and surely undeserving, I leave you with this truth all the same. For it is not what you know, but knowing what's true that matters. Clever men teach many false things.”

“But that’s the thing, isn’t it?” Zinder said. “There’s not always a fire to come home to. And on those days you need persistence. Sometimes life is pleasant and you hardly notice the hours passing by. That’s the way it is for me at the anvil. But other days you have to scratch your way through with everything you have in you. There’s not always the promise of a warm hearth awaiting you. But you press on. You don’t give up. And then, wonder of wonders, you find the fire’s there, just when you need it most. But if you don’t persist, you’ll never find the fire.”

“I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.
"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”

“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”
