I have my Wattpad back and ready to operate

Okay, after having to look for a new more secure place to place my story, I'm going to be posting a few chapters of the Dragon's Library on the Wattpad for anyone who wants to read. So here is the addy and also all rights will be reserved on it.

My Wattpad: https://www.wattpad.com/user/VampireRippy

So yes, I will continue using my blogger to give you some insight to my world and also a few Q and A moments if you want to post anything. ^_^

I'm going to continue using this site to post some artwork for the worlds I am creating and also I might even get a map ready for each world.

Hello all....

After news of Prince's Death, I'm kind of like oh no...not another great one gone...I'm not sure how I am going to respond anymore on that one.

I have been working on a few pieces of artwork, so I'm going to post some right now.


Yeah, some of it is also posted on my art pages, I have quite a few and I'm working a little more on the rough drafts of the Dragon's Library. I'm pretty much trying to figure out how to work on this. 


I'm still thinking that artwork and more to come when it comes to the art that will be part of the story. I hope at least we will have some story line up and ready for readers.

The Fun Facts I have....

After being derailed on writing a plot, I was hoping to get some information about the worlds of my creation.

Okay, the world that Belinda comes from, actually the town she's in has no church. I wanted to make the town as very unattached to religion as possible because I didn't think it was important for a town to have one if the founder was not religious. I also thought it would make the town a little more sterile and less assuming there was one religious order when there were possibly a bunch of people with different generic religious beliefs.

Kel's family, okay, the Elves are pretty nature based religiously, so I went with the customary idea that they believed magic was only for those who could control their own emotional states. So here I am creating a rather simplistic more pagan view, there is a fact that the Elves of her world are believers that women hold a lower spot on the tier of magic users, even though two fighters during the Cilves occupation of the inner city believed in that female fighters were far more effective. (I will actually discuss that more when I get around to the religious aspects of elves later)

Belsom who is a high elf actually comes from what could be considered an atheist view of magic, though they believe it works, it is pretty much not as important as the knowledge in the books. So here is the fact that High Elves and Kel's family of Elves known as Lower Elves have two very distinctly different views of magic. High Elves believe it is nothing special, just something learned from a book, while the Lower Elves believe only high born few can learn it.

Then I come to a race that I have yet to introduce to you, they are called Mecha-Onni, these horse like creatures are basically in my view the reason why I'm no too fond of religious fundamentalism. I believe in equality and that's why the Mecha Onni actually show the horrible side effects when tradition goes too far. They're basically a warrior race and some of the most annoying antagonists I could have come up with, they believe that all knowledge that has magic is dangerous. When I was developing them, I was actually watching the chaos of a Trump rally, and I was trying to think of the most vile and most horrible thing out there and when I think about it Mecha-Onni have a sort of cult mentality. They basically don't think for themselves, they're the kind of people that basically aren't the nicest or even the most respectful. Though I wouldn't put Sharko to be the worst of them, considering he's still in development and more honor bound than his fellow Mecha Onni and also seems a bit more educated.

I'm going to say inspiration for the stories i came up with are actually taken from actual experiences around me that I made into a fantasy world. I don't know how many people can say creating a race of mechanized horses who believe in fighting all their lives, or assassin creatures called Cilves is anything that can be amazing.

Okay, when I was watching a Trump rally I was thinking about all the strange creatures that could be there in it. I was looking at this one fat lady and I'm going to be blunt, she was fatter than hell and might have packed away more ice cream sandwiches than she should be eating was yelling rude things to an African American guy holding a sign saying "Free hugs." I honestly thought okay, what kind of creature in the Planor would this be? Okay, so I came up with this grotesqueness rat thing that was fatter than even a Hutt from Star Wars. I don't know why, but she was had this rat like face, and the idea of her just sitting there eating a crap town of ice cream made me think....oh...let's just play around with this.

If you are going to ask what is Trump....let's see, I know an elf in my story who is quick to judge and doesn't take much time to consider his options. His name it Ruthevan, a rather sleazy kind of High Elf, yes they exist in my world. He is the kind of guy who would sell his mother to a giant brawl lizard gangster from the lesser known plains. This guy is so power hungry that he even attempted to commit high treason just to prove the point that money can buy power....then again, I haven't gotten so far in his back story that he can make even Jabba the Hutt look tame. Yeah, I made a character so vile that even Jabba the Hutt would look at him and tell me "You are a sick woman and I can't even feed this jerk to a Rancor for fear of heart burn."


Yeah...I have come up with a whole can of evil and vile underworldlings in my own worlds that can make even Star Wars villains take a double take on the matter. I can say this though if you want to be inspired with new villains, you can look no further than the US GOP! I can't believe I just said it!

Though heroes on the other hand, I have looked high and low to develop them. Though i have come up with some pretty good neutral evil characters, Kel being one of them. Though she is considered part of the hero flock, she is actually a villain or at least a neutral one. I did an entire post explaining her reason to exist. While I sat through and wrote her entire back story and also how she met the main characters. It is hardly the case that she is truly evil, though misguided at times.

So anyway, here is the thing regarding the book as of late, writers block took over for the last two weeks and I have been yet to finish an entire chapter of the story. I don't know how much more I can stand.
