Thursday, 7th May, 2009 -- Elfwood has been so good to me over the years. Among the shelves of the Wyvern's Library I found a wonderful community of people who have not only supported me in my writing but become wonderful friends. Many of the writers who formed that community have moved on from Elfwood and now I'm finding it's time for me to do likewise.

An enormous thank you to everyone who has stopped by and left comments, or even simply enjoyed my writing. It has really meant so much to me. I can still be reached via the links on this page and am always happy to keep in touch with new readers and old.

Again, thankyou all so very, very much.

Sometimes I find that when I rock up to someone's Wyvern's Shelf I find that I am at a loss as to where to begin and what stories relate to each other. So here is a bit of a map so that you can find your way around here.

As is probably obvious, Awakening is the major work here. It was written over a number of years, so the quality is quite uneven. On finishing it, I also discovered I needed to write a few extra chapters in order to get rid of an infodump so stay tuned for those. One year.

Peripherally related are Ariel and the Lionar and Invocation, both of which are poems about or written by the characters.  A Word to the Wise: Interspecies Communication, is a faux academic essay also written by the main character of Awakening.

Despite what it looks like, the pieces entitled Subversion are not part of a whole but are a series of very short stories along a similar theme.

For other short stories try Blue Moon, Dragonsfire, Gabriel and Ariel (NOT the same Ariel as in Awakening, just an early use of the same name), Dear Imagination, Petals of a Starflower: Cara's Tale, Rhiannon, The Seer, Universal Truth and What You Will.

If you are more of a poetry person, besides the ones I already mentioned try An Angel's Tear, A Final Farewell: Aschensa'ar Nailo, Distance, The Dream WIthin, Incomplete Poetry, The Invigilators, Sahaquiel: The Angel of the Skies, and  The Tempest

It's been too long since i've tiptoed through here. ^_^ i'll be starting "awakening" again this week! Sorry it's been so long since i've read it ~_~ Elizabeth Fitzgerald replies: "Don't be sorry at all, but welcome! It takes me so long to write a chapter that it's really no surprise that it's been so long since you came through.Which reminds me, I'd really better make a start on the next chapter." 26 Feb 2007 Brandi Loading... So much for the "this week" thing. I have been awash in a tide of assignments since my last posting. Still, I hope to get to finish Awakening during spring break! Elizabeth Fitzgerald replies: "Don't let it worry you in the slightest, my dear. Goodness, I hardly read anything on here while I was at uni, so you're more than a few steps ahead of me.Hopefully the next chapter should get through the queue soon." 5 Apr 2007 Joelle Duran Loading... Looking forward to chapter 13! =D Elizabeth Fitzgerald replies: "Then never fear! You don't have long to wait. It's due for an edit tomorrow and then it'll be in the queue. Leaving me with just one chapter. Goodness! What am I going to do then?" 25 Dec 2007 Joelle Duran Loading... MERRY CHRISTMAS, Beth! I hope you and Sahaquiel have a wonderful time! Elizabeth Fitzgerald replies: "What a sweetheart you are! Merry Christmas!" 8 Jan 2008 Peyton Loewen Loading... I've just found out about elfwood and am thinking about starting to post writings here myself. I've found myself inspired and..Back on schedule on my own writing after reading yours =P Elizabeth Fitzgerald replies: "I'm honoured! Thank you. Over the years I've found Elfwood invaluable for developing my writing. I don't post much any more but I still have the self confidence and support networks it gave me. Good luck and feel free to come back and let me know if you decide to go ahead and get a shelf." 12 Feb 2008 Beck Taylor Loading...

Odd. And a bit saddening, perhaps. Oh well, I’ll read on I guess. Elizabeth Fitzgerald replies: "Thanks for the tip, Beck. I’ve contacted the lovely Elfwood helpers and it is being looked into. I hope it doesn’t discourage you from visiting again!" 21 Apr 2008 ´Disco´ Vic Alfieri Loading... hey, thanks for the heads up about the anthology, i probably won’t worry about it, but thanks anyway, good to hear from a fellow aussie though if you want, feel free to comment my stuff. i haven’t got much time right now to read your stuff, but i will be back this way soon, just drop by and let me know what you recommend. 24 Sep 2009 Jesse Loading...
