Taking a stab at writing fun fantasy with stabbings. 🗡

G’day!

I’m the author behind the Realm at War series – tales of a tragic Queendom caught in an endless cycle of war. I share bits about writing, funnies, and updates on my latest books.

Nothing humbles a fantasy reader like trying to pronounce the names out loud.

My book series revolves around a simple premise.

"No one man should have all that power."
"I am no man."

[Luke. @_LPCowling]

I love when a fantasy book has a glossary, but I refuse to use it. I will learn the lore through sheer force of will.

No fantasy book has ever had a character named Greg. It’s always something like Vaelor the Flame-Touched, Keeper of the Void. #FantasyWriter #Worldbuilding

Fantasy books really have two modes:
📖 Book 1: A humble farm boy with a simple life.
📖 Book 3: The God-King of the Seven Realms, cursed with forbidden knowledge.

Naming fantasy characters: Too simple and it sounds modern, too complex and it looks like you smashed your keyboard. #AmWriting #FantasyBooks

I will lead my people to victory is a great fantasy book quote, but I prefer I will do what must be done, even if it breaks me. #FantasyBooks #Storytelling

@MitrielFaywood @goodreads It’s so bad hey. :(

Are you a real fantasy writer until you’ve spent three hours researching medieval plumbing for one throwaway line. #WritingCommunity #Worldbuilding

"This villain was completely justified." - Me, reviewing my own book notes. #AmWriting #FantasyBooks

Realm at War has magic, war, tragedy, and a Queendom trying to break the cycle of violence. If that sounds like your kind of story, check it out in my pinned post or profile. #FantasyBooks #AmReading

When you’re writing a morally grey character and suddenly you’re not sure if they’re even a good person anymore. #AmWriting #CharacterDevelopment

[Luke. @_LPCowling]

I've often thought villains who think they’re the hero are way more interesting than villains who just love being evil. #WritingTips #Storytelling

[Luke. @_LPCowling]

Us fantasy writers will describe a feast for three pages but completely gloss over how an army of 10,000 gets fed. 🤣🤣 #Worldbuilding #FantasyWriter

Writing Tip: If you can’t figure out what happens next, give a side character an opinion on it. They might surprise you. #WritingCommunity #AmWriting
