Since I have to write a synopsis of The Mirador today, and since synopsis-writing is an activity which I both hate and am incredibly bad at, I'm going to issue an open invitation:

Tell me something about yourself.

It's an invitation, obviously--nothing even as strong as a request--so if you don't want to, no harm, no foul. But if you'd like to (and this applies as much to the people I know as the people I don't) ... tell me something. Make it as long or as short, as serious or as goofy as you want. If you are a reader who doesn't have a LiveJournal account, that's totally cool, too--just please remember to sign your comment.

About that Mildmay character by karielf

[(Anonymous)]

This is an interesting group. Like many who visit this blog, I'm writing SF/F, hopefully soon I'll either get one of my short stories published or finish one of the two novels I'm working on.

I absolutely love your writing style. Like many of your readers I find the character of Mildmay endearing. Mostly because he reminds me of my lifemate, aside from the accent, scar, and I'm pretty sure he never killed anyone. I found myself often pausing as I read, wondering how his impossible to read face, muttering speech, and graceful acrobatic physique, not to mention his wavering self-worth, and standoffish attitude made its way onto your pages. He does have a half brother, and if the brother desires him, I'd hate to be around when he found out. If he reads this, he'd kill me (not literally).

I enjoy reading your blog when I'm seeking escape from the hardships of writing. I'm glad to find I'm not alone, when it comes to looking for distractions from the overwhelming urge to create (and perfect) worlds with words.
