| 19 Sep 2002 |  Destiny M. Davis |  Loading...The tale of a hero, and a hero's hate. It burns with the passion of your words. Bravo.  Elizabeth Fitzgerald replies: "Then I have achieved my purpose. Asch was indeed a very passionate individual. Thank you for dropping by and leaving such a nice comment" | |
| 24 Sep 2002 |  Trista Salum | Loading... Another beautiful poem. Angel's Tear and this one remind me of a friend. | |
| 2 Apr 2003 |  Sarah Colley | Loading... Hmm..what bad guy is this? From any of your main works, or just one in general? Either way, very well done. It always amazes me how you manage to put so much feeling and expression in such a short amount of time. I really felt I knew a lot of this character even though I have never read of him before, excellent work. Elizabeth Fitzgerald replies: "I didn't say that he was a bad guy, only that he was an enemy. This one was from my last D&D campaign, which I am slowly writing. It can't be posted here because it is based in Forgotten Realms. Also I haven't actually gotten up to writing the bit this poem refers to. Ariel sort of distracted me. I promise I'll send you a copy when I am done though." | |
| 13 Dec 2003 | Bryn *Stardust Faery* Lepley | Loading... *faery drops a rose unto the fallen hero* Who is this Aschensa'ar Naאָ'? And why did he have to sacrifice himself? He is both enemy, and hero to the unseen eyes... interesting idea to write about, you are very original! And of course, as with all of your other poems, the rhyming and the prose was perfect and excellent... not that I don't like freestyle, but sometimes with a pattern or rhythm I can just feel the power more.... *faery bows and skips off to the next page* *eager look in her eyes* Elizabeth Fitzgerald replies: "*smiles* Ah, that my dear is another story, and one probably destined never to see the light of Elfwood. It was based off a Forgotten Realms game and so while the ideas and characters may be original it would be against the rules to post it here. Plus I haven't written that part yet! Feel free to pester me for what I have though. It is always nice to have feedback" | |
| 4 May 2004 |  Johanna Holmlund | Loading... Very touching, and well written, too. I'm usually not a fan of the whole meter/rhyme thing, but that's mostly because a lot of people suck at it- you, however, do not. Elizabeth Fitzgerald replies: "Thank you. It's something I work hard at" | |
| 28 Jun 2004 | D Joelle Duran | Loading... This is neat. I like it. The fact that one can honor and yet be saddened by an enemy's actions and unwillingness to yield is more meaningful than the simple gloating that's too often shown. Reminds me a little of the honors the Red Baron was given when he was finally shot down by the British. Nice work! Elizabeth Fitzgerald replies: "I guess I really wanted to give him a dignity, that even though his opponents might not have understood why he did the things he did, he still had honour. I'm just glad that you could see that" | |
| 22 Jul 2004 |  Karin Schadinger | Loading... Excellent yet again!! Duno what else to say... I need say I have to leave your library now, but I will come back to read more! ^^ I hope to see a book of you out there someday, will buy it!! You're superb!! ^^ Hugs, Karin! Elizabeth Fitzgerald replies: "You are welcome back to my library any time you like, Karin. And don't worry, if and when I publish a book I'm sure you (and the rest of the Elfwood community for that matter) will know, simply because I won't be able to shut up about it." | |
| 4 Dec 2004 |  B. Layne Weaver | Loading... Very lovely! I love to write rhyming poems, but I seem to have trouble getting them to flow as smoothly as I hoped they would, but you seem to have mastered it--the words just flow so smoothly from my lips! (yes, I read it aloud  Elizabeth Fitzgerald replies: "Reading aloud is definitely a good way to read poetry- especially when you are writing it. I probably don't read them out often enough.I ofen wish I had a rhyming dictionary when I write this sort of thing, but I find that the best way to do it is to take the ending of the first word and then go through the alphabet and adding each letter to see if it makes a sensible word. I write down the ones that do and then see if I can make something semi decent out of them. If not, I simply change the first word to something similar and start all over again!" | |
| 22 Dec 2004 | Thunder Ring | Loading... ::reads again:: You know you could very easily make a story out of that? If you don't want to then find someone who is willing to. I would be but at the rate I am going I will not even get one of my hundreds done! ::reads one more time:: You really need to make a story out of that. Elizabeth Fitzgerald replies: "Don't you worry- there is definitely a story to this one. The problem is that by the time that I finish writing all the other stories that I am working on (and all the stories that lead up to this particular story) I think it will be another... oh say 20 years!" | |
| 5 Jul 2005 | B. Layne Weaver | Loading... "His mourners tears were bitter." An apostrophe in mourners'?
I've read 3 of these little poems so far, and I must say I'm quite impressed by the depth of emotion you get across in just a few short stanzas. Not to mention the stories they tell! They're like little mini-epics. ^_^ Lovely! | |
