You’re doing very well for a first-time writer, Terendel. From your posts, no one could argue you haven’t developed plot or characters, at the very least…

Thanks! I’m glad you like it so far.
Any constructive criticism is always welcome, of course. :) If I do something that’s way overdone or I miss a plothole or something’s too contrived, I need your help because I’m a new writer and I’ve not read a whole lot of high fantasy, yet. My speed of getting through novels has dwindled a lot since I’m focussing my energies on writing, too.

Maybe “Enlow Terendel”? :P

Seems as if it’s shaping up to be an interesting plot. I’ll be anticipating what you have in store for the villains.

Yeah, you’re right, but nothing is set in stone. There’s plenty of time before this book is finished. Plus agents and editors are known to liberally change authors’ pen names. G wasn’t digging this particular pen name. She suggested ‘Nick Enlow’ as an alternative. Then I told her, “You know, the first name doesn’t even have to be ‘Nick’!” And she was like “Oooo!” and is thinking on it even more :) We’ll see what comes of it.

Make sure you really, really like a pen name before committing to it! Many writers seem to just change their last name to something similar, like Williams to Walker.
