Everybody go to the Elfwood  Forums!!!

And now for my bio...

I'll have to admit to you that I am not the most active of Elfwooders.  At least I can say I joined years ago and haven't left.  I'll have to consider whether I still have a place here.

Meanwhile, I'll still repay useful comments.  As long as your comment is useful, I will repay it to the best of my abilities.  There is none of this "commenting in kind" thing with me.  If it's a "hay, kewl stry" then I won't even bother.  If it's a good try, but still only one sentence, I'll give a good try in as many words as I need.  However, I do try and read about the same word length as you.  That means if you comment on my horrendously long story, and you only have a bunch of tiny stories, I will read and comment on as many as add up.  If you comment on my story and only have visual art, you will get a ~lot~ of comments.  I'm probably more qualified to talk about writing, though.

That said, I don't have any new work up here at the moment.  So why bother coming here?  Because I was raised on fantasy and sci-fi.  My Mom read me fairy tales more than anything else.  When I learned to read for myself, all the prettiest books were fantasy, and when my judgement matured, all the most interesting and best written books were still fantasy or sci-fi.  When I do write, I tend to stay true to my influences.  Besides, I've wanted to be a writer since I was six.

You have an abundance of raw talent here. There seems to be a unique voice and passion to your words that is missing from some more experienced writers. If you are looking for inspiration, I can give you this advice: look to your own words. You have a lot to say. Your writing, in fact, is bubbling over with ideas. Don't lose that edge. The first short story I ever wrote was two pages long. That idea has now blown up into a few hundred page novel in the works. Writing is about ideas. You have that in spades. If you ever think you are coming up dry for inspiration, go back to your stories and poems. Take one theme or idea from that and just run with it. This is great stuff. Keep on keeping on. Vicki "Kiddalee" Nemeth replies: "Thank you is the only thing I know how to say to that." 19 Jan 2003 Jessie.'Jsi-Spitz'Young Loading... VICKI!!!!!!! I'm a writer person now too! If you see the stuff at my page...just laugh at my stupid mistakes...okay?... Vicki "Kiddalee" Nemeth replies: "You are??? GOODY!!!!!!!! I'm coming!" 25 Feb 2003 Sean 'iono' Cavanagh Loading... OOOHH!!! I've stumbled upon another writer person!!! *rushes off to read your stories* 20 Mar 2003 Kate "Silverfish" Jennings Loading... Some lovely poems: you have the confidence to use language well and simply. I liked "For those who weep diamonds" and its oblique message. Vicki "Kiddalee" Nemeth replies: "A funny thing happened to me the day I wrote that. I felt pleased at myself." 19 May 2003 Andrew R. Wynn-Williams Loading... Vicki Sue ... i enjoyed the one story. You did a good job (as you can tell by my lengthy commentary on the piece itself). I will forbear from commenting on the poetry ... I do such a terrible job of poetry myself it would be presumtuous in the extreme to comment on someone elses (besides i have never really liked poetry). As to the stream of consciousness style piece at the end. That is so different from my usual fare that I don't really feel qualified to comment on that either. It was interesting though. thanks for your excellent commnents on my work. Vicki "Kiddalee" Nemeth replies: "Well, thank you for your comments. You don't like poetry? Oops... I told you I'd mail you when my new story got past the mods...well... most of the dialogue is poetry! Still, I'll email you, but with a warning." 17 Sep 2003 Faith D. Doerr aka Lerune Loading... Hello there -- saw that you are a fellow member of the Writer's Forum and I try to get around to people's works from there. At the current moment, I have a ton of Herald stuff to proof, but I wanted you to know that I have bookmarked your page so that I may come back and read your work. You have my word that I will be returning to comment as soon as my time allows me to give your pieces the undivided attentions they deserve. =0) Vicki "Kiddalee" Nemeth replies: "EEEEEEEEEEEEEE!~was my response. Yep. That's awesome... But I'm not ready! I have to proofread everything!" 21 Dec 2004 Ashley D. Lange Loading... Thank you very much for commenting on my FARP article! I guess the use of classic fantasy animals is a manner of opinion (if it were up to me, I'd do away with them completely) but, if exectuted correctly, it's possible (by a very talented writer) to breathe life into them. My negative feelings radiate from too many novice stories about a girl that fights dragons from the back of her pegasus while the prince battles kappas and redcaps with the help of his wise centuar friend and his pet griffon. Usually, instead of imagining something new, people write in the word "griffon" and go from there. (i. e., griffons are noble, proud, fierce, loyal. Therefore, my griffon character is noble, proud, fierce, and loyal.) As for my spelling mistake, d'oh! Thanks for pointing that out. Also, the aurora (or lack of it) wouldn't effect animals much - but the midnight sun could! Thank you so much for your input (people like you inspire me!), and now I'll read your works and leave comments on them. If you want to say anything else on the article, please tell me! AD Lange Vicki "Kiddalee" Nemeth replies: "Whee~! Thanks a lot." 14 Apr 2005 Anne Lee Zimmerman Loading... I really love your stuff that you have up here. Also, the formatting is much better than some that I have seen. I actually know nothing about HTML. I use Microsoft Front Page to do mine. Before I got Front Page I used the HTML fixer that is linked to in one of the FARP articles. Takes a little trial and error to get that thing to work properly, but it' certainly faster than individually writing in each tag. *shudders* I hate programming. Vicki "Kiddalee" Nemeth replies: "When I joined Wyverns, they had a page telling you the basics of HTML; only as much as you need for the library. Unfortunately, I don't think they have that any more. I really think they should put it back up there." 8 Jul 2005 Chelsa L. Dagley Loading... hey! You left some awesome comments on my story and I was just stopping by to look at yours, when I suddenly realized I already had but had forgotten! Again I'd like to say I loved your stories and you must tell me when you update! And thank you once more for the insightful and intelligent comments ^_^ Vicki "Kiddalee" Nemeth replies: "Thanks. I'll try to remember that. Maybe I should create a mailing list of people who might like to know when I update... Hmmm..." 10 Apr 2009 Vicki "Kiddalee" Nemeth Loading... I’m commenting on my own page just for fun. Vicki "Kiddalee" Nemeth replies: "Well isn’t that just a grand thing, isn’t it?" Page: [1] 2 3
