"Little Queen of Spades and the Suicide King" just cleared the queue. It's a stand alone post-apocalyptic thing... If I can get the muse to come back, I'll write some more.
Any of my stories posted here, at the Wyvren's Library in Elfwood, are here for critiquing purposes only. If you are interested in publishing my stories, please contact me through the comments section or email me at the link above. And thank you, THANK YOU! to everyone who leaves their criticisms of my work. Even negative criticisms are constructive.
There are some extremely helpful critiquers out there. They can be found over at YahooGroups. Namely Bifrost Fantasy, The Herscher Project, and Wyvernsmiths. There are some pretty cool people involved in this gigantic Elfwood thing. A few I’ve met were in these groups.
Bifrost is great for projects and just about anything you need from why your computer drawing thing won't work to recipes for Woodchuck Pie. We even have our own forum. There are tutorials and real live Elfwood moderators who will answer your questions! Everyone there is helpful and kind. It’s the best group of any sort I’ve belonged to on the internet. So you rabble rousers just stay away from that link, okay?
Both the Herscher Project and Wyvermsmiths are composed of a great bunch of writers; a surprising amount of them are published! Over at Wyvernsmiths, we critique each other’s works. You can get two (and sometimes more!) critiques a week, as long as you give two yourself. It helps keep writing and editing skills sharp. If you have a story that needs sorting out, wyvernsmiths is the place to take it. The folks over at Herscher are a sort of combination between the other two. There are monthly projects and always willing critiquers.
A side note: For my "Joined Elfwood At..." date, I went by my oldest comment from "The Barn". However, I know I was here in 1996 trolling around looking for fantasy pictures when this place was called Lothlorien.
I return comments as soon as time and life allow.

| Date | Name | Comment | | | 19 Dec 2005 |  Helle Jorgensen |  Loading...Yup, that *is* TP with the Discworld series. Highly recommendable; I'm sure you'd enjoy the books, especially since you know of them already! (Now I might have to look up 'Good Omens' ... I know Neil Gaiman from 'the Sandman', but haven't come across that collaboration piece. We both got a bit wiser now, then.)  Ashley R. Wynn replies: "Now that's what I call a good trade.  " | |
| 24 Jan 2006 |  Cecily | Loading... Is it okay if I use your method of chapter-naming for Angelis Infernales? Only it's kewl and the first chapter is named after Sariel anyway...prod me to catch up with Genesis Vault, seen?  Ashley R. Wynn replies: "That's cool. And, uh... read the new Genesis Vault chapter! LOL" | |
| 2 Mar 2006 |  Chris A Jackson | Loading... Thanks for commenting on Warmonger! Now... stop smoking! I simply must read something here, but I know not where to start... Any suggestions? What's your favorite?  Ashley R. Wynn replies: "... No one's ever asked me that before. My favorite to work on is Genesis Vault. The ones I'm most proud of are the poems - Maneater, Incubus, and Jenny. They have endings. How about I suggest NOT reading Barn or the EndlessNameless stories? They've been there since high school, so they don't really fit me any more. I like to think my skills have greatly improved since then, so I leave em up as refrence.  And tobacco is icky and nasty and should only be used for ceremonial purposes. . ." | |
| 21 Mar 2006 | Shoeless | Loading... Hmm I won't debate your choice of fantasy authors some i love some I don't really enjoy but you simply must expand your horizons in Sci-Fi. I would suggest starting with David Weber (the king of sci fi in my opinion) move on to John Ringo perhaps some of elizebeth moon's all though she can be a bit spotty with her writting (try the Lt. Leary commanding series quite good) and to finish off i would suggest one of the best classics in sci fi "Three to dorsi" look it up it will bend your mind. Its a bit dry at times but it is extremily good if you can get through it. Still in all this is obviously just my opinion, and my apologies if your tates differ radically from mine.  Ashley R. Wynn replies: "With the exception of Star Wars, I'm not really into the whole space opera thing. Give me a post-apocalypse survival story or some cyberpunk and I'm happy. I did go on a kick for a bit where I read a lot of Mars related stories - mostly Burroughs and Ray Bradbury stuff. " | |
| 21 Mar 2006 | Anonymous | Loading... I amso soon going to write something myself. I just love your stories... and you've read anne rice! she wonderful really. Hope you do know that the a. n. roquelaure is her too?  Ashley R. Wynn replies: "Yes. But I've gotten to where I like Anias Nin better." | |
| 17 Apr 2006 |  Barbara J. Wickham | Loading... Thank you so much for leaving so many lovely comments at my gallery. I'm not very savvy with the mechanics of writing so I won't be able to offer much help in that area, however I do enjoy reading so I look forward to sampling your shelf and offering my humble opinion.
I'll leave comments as I go... | |
| 15 May 2006 |  Kyle 'Khet' Wolff | Loading... You have many, many good peices in this little section of the woods. Far too many to comment on individually so I'll wrap them all into one. Your works are very original in nature and your use of grammar and spelling is wonderful. Keep up the good work, hope to see more from you soon! Ashley R. Wynn replies: "There's not as many there as appears to be. I actually deleted more than a dozen of them last week, but for some reason, the links still show up and take you to a 404 Lost in Elfwood page." | |
| 28 May 2006 |  C. 'Liari' Seidel | Loading... *pokes her whiskers in and looks, then notes for future readings* Saw you on Cec's page, looked interstring, thought I'd come by. Many stories, shall come back when time permits. | |
| 12 Oct 2006 | Cecily 'SLWS' Webster | Loading... Aie, I haven't been here in ages, I'm so sorry! [rebirdlook] Do you still have them?
[shoggoth has been inflicting unimaginable horrors etc. on neighbouring pages in the meanwhile] | |
| 21 Jan 2008 | Mairead | Loading... I read Coldstore Cave a long time ago before it was taken down. Did you ever finish it? Wanna email a copy s_e_terrell at yahoo dot com | |
