"I want a hero not a weapon strapped with pecs." [Title taken from the Tom Smith Song Rocket Ride.] 1. Violence: what is it good for.... Answer, a lot more than sex is. My previous article was about sex, so violence had to be next. I have heard multiple answers to the question: "Why put fight scenes into a novel? David Drake, author of dozens of sci-fi...
You are Marcus Bluemantle, and you have spent fifteen of the twenty-three years of your life under the demanding tutelage of High Maga Leana Whitedove, who taught you how to harness the power of the elements, bend space and time and twist perceptions, as well as call upon outside powers... And you are now free to make your way into the world. While Mistress...
Stefan: When I saw him lead her upstairs and then proceed to kiss her, I really wanted to take his head off, but the worse part was that she let him. I've never felt betrayed by anyone in my life but in that moment I felt like she'd ripped my heart out and handed it back to me. Feeling the tears in my own heart, I disappeared from the house and began to wal...

The main character: Ms. Fischer was a young teacher in her early thirties. Highly intelligent, but rather shy and introverted in character. Her subjects, math and computer science, weren't stereotypically female subjects. Still, the young blonde woman was not your typical nerd type. The only thing about her in that direction was the thick black-rimmed glasse...
It seems that everyone wants to know what the characters in a story look like in order to get a good mental picture. Normally stories aren't about completely average people and this one is no exception except that I, Amy, the main character, am not a raving beauty. To give you an idea of what I look like -- to be expounded on later -- the Valentine's Day car...

I feel the need to expand more on the backgrounds of the two characters of the story, Coco Dynamo and Ben White. So, here are some details and background for them. It deals mostly with their abilities and skills regarding magic and combat. This couldn't re...
Die Hauptfigur: Frau Fischer war eine junge Lehrerin Anfang dreißig. Hoch intelligent, aber vom Charakter her eher scheu und introvertiert. Ihre Fächer Mathematik und Informatik waren jetzt keine typischen Frauenfächer. Dennoch war die junge blonde Frau keine typische Nerd-Type. Das Einzige an ihr in dieser Richtung war die Brille mit dem dicken schwarzen Ra...
Mitch heard Lisa's question, but was still staring at the remains of the city, too shocked by what they saw to answer. Buildings were worn and crumbling, abandoned cars were rusted and strewn about the streets, trash and debris scattered everywhere... and not a single person was seen... anywhere.

Glistening snow covers the frozen earth like a thick blanket. Perhaps tonight will be the night. The thought comes unbidden and I silently scold myself for it; getting...
