Favorites for James K. Bowers

James believes in wizards, dragons, starships, time travel, and the remote possibility of a balanced budget.

Malin M. Larsson A touch of Swedish enchantment (and Co-owner of The Herscher Project).

E Purington (A more recent addition to the ranks of the Herscher Project)	Allison Theus What interesting visions...	Jenny Dolfen No explanation required.	Stephanie Pui-Mun Law No explanation required.

Fredrik K T Andersson Drunken fairies and the heroic Dogfur.... Well, what's NOT to like?	Annie Rodrigue Would have to LOSE a good deal of skill if she intends to be a "wannabe fantasy artist". Perhaps she doesn't realize how good she already is.	Terry .A. Ernest By his own admission, "basically more Hobbit than elf".	Richard Svensson Who could ever have predicted that "King Kong" would have such influence...
Kajsa Flingling Flinkfeldt A keen eye for color and contrasts. Portraits to die for...	Ashley R. Wynn Rest in peace, Ashley. We'll miss you.	Michelle Bradshaw Simply incredible	Emily McDurman "I have little patience for things, including writing." (Recently joined the Herscher Project ranks.)
Lisa Eshkenazi All manner of magic and wonderment from the Herscher Project's art director.	Robin Butler (Herscher Project artist)	Neil S. Foster (Herscher Project member since 2008, arriving from Malin's "Threshold" site)	Lucy A Snyder If ever you need to know how to install Linux on a dead badger, THIS is the lady to ask.
Amy Ruth Schley (A future Herscher Project member)	Selina Fenech Exceptional is good for a beginning. After that, it gets tougher to find adequate adjectives.

Ice Dragon Thank you, Tansy! The original artwork hangs in my library/computer room!	Fields of Gold Though it's difficult to choose a favorite in Jenny's gallery, if it was in flames I'd rush in to save this one...	The Butterfly Pool Leafy enchantment.	Zephaera Zephaera is the incarnation of the West Wind, basically air taken human form.
Faery Glen Great use of blues and greens.	3 ravens from a story... of the sister with three brothers who were turned into ravens...	Random Interlude with Gothbat 4 The horror!	The Fruit Those who know me are aware that I am simply fascinated with watercolors because I have no idea how that magic works.
Journey into the Shadows How can one not like a great rendittion of Shadowfax?	Alice ''How do you know I'm mad?'' said Alice. / ''You must be,'' said the Cat, ''or you wouldn't have come here.''	ART OF LOVE A "combination of watercolour and pen drawing" that is simply incredible.

Hoarfrost and Throe 05-10-2005 I read it (the first of several times) months ago and could come up with not much more than "Wow" or one of several other variations on the same theme.	I Am My Brother's Keeper How can anyone NOT like such a short, confident, and controlled tale, even a "vampire-story-hater" like me!	All lies If "being experimental" always worked out so well, more people would experiment.	How to make times interesting (p 17) I really do hate picking a favorite among Malin's stories when my REAL favorite isn't posted at Elfwood.
A Deeper Calm (poem) From a Creative Writing class my son and I took together at Kankakee Community College	Fireplace Songs & Tales Part 2 Bards, dragons, wizards, silver rings, dreams... Ahhh, but dawn has come and the spell is broken for the moment... Yet, it feels so much like home here at the World's Edge Tavern... Yes, I'll be returning from time to time...	The Villa Proof that some dreams are custom-made for authors to share.	Victim (p 22) One of my personal favorites (the REAL favorite I alluded to on one of her other works).
Solitary Confinement (Poem) This poem was written as an exercise using four words: aim, decay, wise and boon. (Herscher Project #1)	An Angel's Tear This is how poetry SHOULD read...	Lounge Lizard So original, it's tough to categorize this as anything other than "favorite"... :)	Rise of the New South Deb has written better tales, so be sure to sample them, but this short piece will always remain a personal favorite.
Compline Unusual and compelling (i.e., typical Amy).	By Royal Command "Mr Jenkins had tattered ears and was patched in five places."	The Satyr's Song How SAD... But a tale destined to become a Herscher Project classic....	Old Mother The story of an aging hippocampus by an author who isn't aware of how talented she really is!
Stranger than fiction (p 37) Extraordinary (i.e., written with Malin's usual skill).	The Angler (p 39) What an honor it is to inspire one who is so inspiring herself!
